Chapter 25 - Shopaholic Girl!

After fully recovered, Rize left the Hospital in Lavender Town and resume on his journey throughout Kanto. Now he is on route 7 where he met with a Trainer girl trying to catch a wild Pokemon he never see before. Because of his curiousity, he decided to stand back and watch. The wild Pokemon appeared to be a Jiggilypuff the baloon Pokemon.


" Jiggilypuff the Baloon Pokemon and the evolved form of Igglybuff. When it wavers its big, round eyes, it begins singing a lullaby that makes everyone drowsy. "

Girl: This time I'm going to catch you for sure Jigglypuff! Squirtle go use Bubble Beam!

Rize: "Wow, she got a Squirtle!"

" Squirtle the Tiny Turtle Pokemon. It is a Water type.  It shelters itself in its shell, then strikes back with spouts of water at every opportunity. "

The Jigglypuff dodged the Bubble Beam attack and started to sing.
Girl: Squirtle! Withdraw and hide in your shell!
Squirtle drawed into its shell to avoid the Sing attack but even tough it is already inside its shell the Sing attack still could be heard by Squirtle and Squirtle is put to sleep and the Jigglypuff just giggling away.
Girl: Oh noo...!
Rize stepped in to help the girl catch the wild Jigglypuff.
Rize: Need some help? Sandshrew go!
Girl: Eh??
The wild Jigglypuff started to sing and used Sing attack again.
Rize: Sandshrew use Dig into the ground!
Sandshrew dug into the ground and the Sing attack missed and attacked Jigglypuff from below the ground and knocked Jigglypuff. Rize told the girl to hurry and throw her Pokeball to get the Jigglypuff and the Jigglypuff was captured.
Girl: Yeay! I finally got a Jigglypuff! Thank you so much for helping me out! I'm Midori, 14 years.
Rize: No problem. I'm Rize 14 years too! I was just on my way to Celadon City and I saw you so I decided to help a little bit.
Midori: You're going to Celadon City?! I'm also going there! Why don't we go together then!
Rize and Midori went to Celadon City together and to his surprise, Celadon is a very big city like Saffron City and it have lots of department stores.
Rize: Allright! I'm going to the Celadon Gym!
Midori: No! Come with me first I'll show you around the city!
Rize agreed to follow her but instead of going round the city Midori went to the department stores and bought lots of stuffs until Rize have to carry lots of her stuffs for her.
Rize: Hey hey! Do you still plan to buy some more?! This is overloaded already!!
Midori: Just a few more...
Midori continue to shop for another 2 hours leaving Rize very exhausted.
Midori: Thanks for carrying my goods. Don't you want anything to buy in this big department store?
Rize: Well no, I'm not a shopaholic like you. =.=
Midori then gave Rize bottles of Pokemon supplement products.
Midori: They are supplements to make your Pokemon stronger! If you want to be the number 1 Trainer you just have to get your Pokemon drink these! (Showing the advertisement where the Kanto Champion promotes the product)
