Chapter 4 Forest Stop

As we return to Frankie, he's walking along the railway with his Sandslash. They were having idle chit-chat until Frankie remembers that he has to use the dream radar.

"Are you really going to find dream pokemon with that here?" Sandslash ask. Sandslash thought that it was ridiculous that Arceus would forget to transform dream pokemon into real pokemon.

"Only one cloud, but it's a still a stormy cloud" Frankie said, aiming his arm at it.

"I bet it's not a pokemon."

"It's a pokemon" Frankie said chasing after it.

"Seriously-" Sandslash said, as he watch Frankie chase after "-Frankie wait up."

Frankie chase the orb and when he was about done with the orb, something shook under Frankie. This cause Frankie to lose his balance, but at least he didn't fall over. Before he could get the ground underneath him started to raised and before he knew it, he was in the air, by a Steelix.

"SANDSLASH USE CRUSH CLAW!" Frankie shouted in a panic.

Sandslash quickly went up to the Steelix and slash it. It didn't do much, but it got the Steelix attention. Frankie land on the Steelix's head, and once he got up, he aim at the orb.

"HOW COULD YOU BE CATCHING AT A TIME LIKE THIS!" Sandslash yelled.

"Just use earthquake" Frankie commanded as he was focusing on the orb.

Sandslash used earthquake and it was super effective. It cause Steelix to move a bit, making Frankie off balance. The Steelix went and did a suppose double-edge. Frankie still hang on to the Steelix's head, while Sandslash was sent off.

The Steelix chase after Sandslash in another double-edge, Frankie couldn't stay on Steelix and was sent into the air as well. Sandslash, in a panic used swift, sending some stars rays at it. Most of it hit the Steelix while one went the off course. Frankie landed on the star and was heading back to where the dream pokemon was.

Sandslash was knot back, and he was near the rail tracks. Being near the train track means he can no longer use earthquake, since it can damage the railway. Sandslash see that the Steelix was charging, and was opening it's mouth. It was getting to use crunch. Sandslash stand up and use gyro ball. The spinning Sandslash went and tackle himself into the Steelix's mouth. They were both damage, but mostly Sandslash. Once they separate, they were both weak. Sandslash use swift as his last attempt, while Steelix use earth power. Sandslash was knot out, as Steelix just stands there.

"STARYU USE WATER GUN!" Someone shouted, behind Steelix. It was Frankie with a Staryu. The Staryu used water gun at the Steelix knotting him out as well. "Thanks, Staryu you are free now" Frankie said as he release the Staryu.

"It was no problem at all" Staryu said then she leaves.

"Great now where am I going get some revival herbs" Frankie said to himself. He went ahead and place Sandslash on his back. Frankie was never strong, but at least he could carry most of his pokemon if they need healing. "I better move Steelix as well, but I don't have the strength to do it, and there's no rope nearby, but I have to at least try."

The Steelix was on the rail tracks and could cause problems if a train crash into the Steelix, sure the Steelix can recover eventually, but who knows when the train would come, and since he's not back in earth the trains aren't power by pokemon, so who knows how they would stop. So Frankie gather up all of his strength and push the Steelix and in his surprise he was able to push the Steelix easily. He push the Steelix away from the tracks until they won't visible anymore. Once he was done, he felt amaze about that he just push a Steelix, he could never push a Steelix back on Earth but here it was different. He ponder while walking back to the train tracks on how this was possible. Was it his new body, he was defined as a earth pony, they have a lot of strength, but he doubt just one pony will be able to push a Steelix. So then he thought back then when he was a Shinx, was he a pokemon, but the mega stone symbol on his flank reminder him, he's a pony nothing more or nothing less, or is it. Wish and heal pulse were moves he called out, and when he went and protect a colt, no one was hurt not even himself. He sworn that something that was coming at the colt and yet he remain unscratched. He also remember giving the Tyranitar a look the made him unable to flee from him, kinda of like mean look, and then it hit him, an apple. He look around and notice he was no longer near Appleloosa or anything related to the place, he was in a forest and a nearby swamp smell came by his nose. So instead or retracing his steps he set up a fire place, for Sandslash and to also mark where he has to come back to when he going to find some oran berries. He also got to make sure he has some food for himself, since he hasn't eaten anything since he was here, heck he forgot to eat when he was visiting professor Burnet, he was starving. So after stuffing his face with apples, setting down Sandslash, setting up a fire and removing anything flammable nearby he set of to find some oran berries and also to find some herbs as well.

Frankie went searching around and time to time check if the smoke coming from his fire has change. He has to make sure the smoke can only shrink then anything else. As he was about to give up he saw a trail of oran berries. Someone must either plant them there or a pokemon was hoarding berries, which means a Ursaring could be nearby, but he has to find the oran berries no matter what. He gather the oran berries until he made it to the end of the trail, but to his surprise it was just one and that's it. Then he could sense something behind him, and as he look there was nothing, it must be a ghost type messing with me and then he felt a tap behind him, but instead of looking back he just stood there. This anger whoever was tapping, so that person kept tapping until Frankie turn around and when Frankie turn, the ghost type pokemon couldn't hid, couldn't flee, he just stood there. Frankie was using mean look and it was super effective, for making the pokemon not fleeing and nothing else. Frankie then took a good look at the pokemon to find a Gourgeist, but not just any Gourgeist, a super size Gourgeist, also it his Gourgeist.

"Gourgeist" Frankie manage to say.

"Yeah, I know I'm a Gourgeist... Where did you get that?!" Gourgeist said pointing at Frankie's dream radar. "You have five seconds to tell me where you get that" Gourgeist then started charging a energy ball.

"Wait don't shot, it's me, Frankie" Frankie said in a panic.

"Yeah right you can't be...-" Gourgeist then saw a bandanna and the green goggles to know there's only one weirdo who dress like that "Kyle"

"Yeah wait what?!"

"I'm just kidding of course it would be you, Frankie."

"Jerk."

"I couldn't help it you so easy to fool."

"Say's the girl who fell for a mean look."

"Yeah, how did you do that?"

"I have no idea, but it at least proves one of my theories."

"Which is?"

"I can use pokemon moves... I think."

"You think?"

"Well you just saw use mean look."

"True enough so, what's with the oran berries?"

"It's, Sandslash he's fainted and I needed the berries."

"Here I have a revival herb we can use that" Gourgeist hand him a revival herb, but Frankie somewhat rejected. "Why?"

"Does it look like I need to carry more stuff" Frankie said, carrying a bunch of oran berries.

"Oh yeah, here put them in my pumpkin, it can hold it for you."

"I thought that was just another mouth?"

"Maybe it is or maybe it isn't, but it can hold stuff for you."

"I think I just hold it until we get back to, Sandslash"

"Suit yourself" Gourgeist said, as they walked back to Sandslash.
