BW001: Difference between revisions

Making their way to clearing near the lab, Trip sends out Snivy and starts taking pictures to document his journey and his first ever Pokémon battle. Meanwhile, Oshawott curiously peeks at the two Trainers from behind a nearby tree. Pikachu begins the match with a {{m|Quick Attack}}, which hits Snivy squarely on his body. Snivy quickly recovers on his feet, brimming with determination. Quickly, Trip calls for a {{m|Tackle}}, but Pikachu dodges it skilfully. With another leap, he then dodges another Tackle attack from the opposite direction. Ash then tells Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but Snivy's Tackle lands first and knocks Pikahcu to the ground. For a second time, Pikachu charges up a Thunderbolt, but the move fails once again. Trip then taunts Ash. Taking the bait, he asks Pikachu to use {{m|Volt Tackle}} and Pikachu runs towards Snivy attempting to charge himself up, but once again nothing happens; he loses momentum and stops in the middle of the field, panting. Ash panics for a moment, to which Trip taunts him even further. He then realizes that Pikachu is unable to use {{t|Electric}}-based attacks, so Ash calls for an {{m|Iron Tail}}. Pikachu's tail hardens into a gleaming slate of metal and slams earthward, but Snivy nevertheless dodges once again. With a bout of confidence, Trip tells Snivy to use {{m|Leaf Tornado}}, which traps Piachu in a cyclone of grass and leaves. Pivoting its body, Snivy slams its tail to the ground, whipping up a large cloud of dust.  As the dust settles, Pikachu lies sprawled in a hole, completely unconscious. Ash quickly runs to Pikachu's side and picks him up, while Trip compliments his Snivy and [[recall]]s him into his Poké Ball. Trip suggests Ash go over the Trainer basics again, but Ash ignores the comment and rushes back to Professor Juniper's lab to have Pikachu treated.
