Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

The Story of a Ruin Maniac

Chapter 11: Off to Olivine

"HONK HONK" was the sound that came from the ferry as Rocky and Tommy barely made it on the boat.

"Next time, I pick the short-cut," panted Rocky.

"Yeah, we only made it because you hade those bikes," replied Tommy.

"Lets ask that secretary where our room is," said Rocky.

Rocky and Tommy walked up to the desk and the secretary said "State your name please."

"Rocky"

"Tommy"

"Your room is room 220. Here is your key," the secretary replied as she handed them the key.

Rocky & Tommy started walking to their room when halfway down the hall a voice came from behind them.

"Hey, are you two pokemon trainers" said the voice.

Rocky & Tommy whirled around and saw a two trainers staring at them, one was pointing his finger at Rocky.

"Yeah, we are," Rocky replied.

"Then how about a little 2-on-2 then," said the other trainer.

"Sure," Tommy replied.

"O.K. then. Sandslash, I choose you!" Rocky shouted as he hurled a ball into the middle of the floor and it opened and a bright light popped out and turned into Sandslash.


"Vigoroth, Go!" Tommy shouted as he through a ball into the air and Vigoroth came out in a blinding white light.

The two other trainers through out balls containting Seviper and Blastoise.

"Sandslash, use Mud Slap on that Seviper!" Rocky shouted.

Sandslash started slinging dirt at the Seviper when all of a sudden the Blastoise blocked the attack with a Rapid Spin. Just then, Vigoroth appeared behind the Blastoise. Before Blastoise could turn around, Tommy commanded Vigorotth to use and attack nobody had expected.

"Vigoroth, use Crush Claw!"

Vigoroth's claws started glowing as it jhumped up in the air and slashed the Blastoise into the Seviper knocking both of them out. Just then, Vigoroth started glowing.

"No way," said one of the trainers, dumbfounded.

"Wow," Rocky said, astonished.

"What's it doing?" asked the other trainer, clueless.

"It's evolving!" exclaimed Tommy.

Vigoroth started shifting into a new pokemon. When it stopped glowing, it said "Slak"

"It evolved into a Slaking!" joyfully said Tommy.

After a little while, Rocky & Tommy finally made it to their room. Tommy went and checked the tickets.

"Still 6 more days 'till we get to Johto," he said.

"Well, for right know we might as well sleep," replied Rocky as they climbed into bed and drifted to sleep.
 
Chapter 12: Olivine City

Rocky & Tommy had been waiting 6 days for the ferry to get to Olivine and they finally got to get a glimpse of land as they finally got closer to Olivine City. An hour past and the ferry finally arived at Olivine's docks. Rocky & Tommy got off the boat and a scientist walked up to them.

"Are you, by any chance, Rocky?" he asked.

"Yes," Rocky replied.

"Follow me," said the scientist.

They walked through many plains when and the scientist explained to them his name, which was Jack, and the reason they had called them. Suddenly, a Mightyena jumped out of nowhere and blocked their way.

"Grrrrr," it growled.

"It seems to want to battle," said Tommy.

"Well then, lets battle it," said Rocky. "Sandslash, Go!"

Sandslash flashed out of the ball in a blazing bright light and prepared to battle.

"Sandslash, use Slash!" Rocky shouted.

Sandslash lunged forward and slash the Mightyena backwards.

"Sandslash, finish it with a Brick Break!" Rocky shouted.

Sandslash lunged forward agian but this time Mightyena was ready. It jumped up in the air and crashed down on Sandslash who flung the Mightyena into a nearby tree.

"Pokeball, Go!" Rocky shouted.

Rocky hurled a ball straight into the Mightyena and it was sucked into the ball in a red lazer. The ball went still. It wigled once, twice, thrice, bing! The ball stopped moving and the Mightyena was caught.
They kept walking until 2 towers loomed up into the distance.

"I know a short-cut," said Jack.

Rocky & Tommy followed him into a bunch of ruins.

"Here we are," said Jack.
 
Chapter 13: The Ruins of Alph

Rocky, Tommy, and Jack slid down the hill and land ded a the entrance of what appeared to be many temples positioned over a rockypart of the surrounding forest.

"Next time, no more short-cuts," said Tommy, pulling leaves out of his brown hair.

"The reason we called you here is because strange things have been happening in these temples," explained Jack. "Let me show you a recording."

Rocky and Tommy followed Jack into and positioned themselfs infront of a T.V. Jack walked over and slipped a tape in. The screen started to become brighter and the video started.



Two people entered the temple and walked over to a puzzle. They rearranged the pieces so that they looked like a Charizard. Suddenly, the floor below them crumbled and they felll into a large temple.
They got up when all of a sudden, strange pokemon started floating around. They looked like letters.
They circled around the two people and the people vanished in a multicolored portal.



The screen clicked off.

"This is your mission," said Jack. "Catch one of those pokemon and try not to get stuck in that other diminsion like those other to explorers."

Rocky and Tommy left the lab and jogged over to the large temple. They walked inside. Instantly, the strange pokemon floated down.

"This is it, Go, Mightyena!" shouted Rocky.

"Go, Sneasel!" shouted Tommy.

"When did you get a Sneasel?" questioned Rocky.

"A guy traded it to me when we were on the ferry," said Tommy. "But that isn't important now."

" Mightyena, use Thief!" shouted Rocky.

Mightyena sprinted forward and yanked something off one of the strange pokemon.
 
Chapter 14: The Unown Item

Rocky and Tommy sprinted out of the temple and into the lab where Jack was waiting for them.

"Here," Rocky panted as e gave the pokeball cointaining the Unown to Jack. "I also got this from the Unown."

Rocky held up an item. The item was blue bowl-like item. Ancient symbols were printed all over it.

"Let me see that," said Jack.

Hours past until suddenly Jack looked up.

"This bowl in known as the Key Bowl. There are many secret passages in the Ruins of Alph. This item would alow us to explore those passages and mabey the 2 explorers the Unown captured." explained Jack. "Follow me."

Rocky,Tommy, and Jack went into a small cave-like chamber. At the back there was a hole in the shape of the edges of a bowl. Jack jammed the bowl into the edges of the hole and turned it. He pulled the bowl out and there was a click. Suddenly, the floor underneath them vanished and they fell into another chamber. There were 4 stands and each had an item on it.

"Items for the taking!" shouted Rocky as he ran over and snatched the items up.

"Okay, do any of your pokemon know flash?" asked Jack.

'I do," said Tommy. "Go, Abra! Use Flash!"

An Abra shot out of Tommy's ball in a blazing white light. The Abra started glowing and light filled the room. Instanly, they fell through another trap door. Tommy ran over to the Items and snatched them up.

"Now, we need a Water Stone," said Jack.

"I've got over right here," replied Rocky.

They stone started glowing and another trap door opened. This time, at the very back, there was a picture of a giant phenoix-like pokemon.

Chapter 15: The door of Ho-oh

"Is that a-," Tommy exclaimed in amazement.

"-Ho-oh, yes," finished Jack.

"That must be the final door," said Rocky.

"According to the bowl, we have to catch one," replied Jack.

Suddenly, the door started to open. A phienox pokemon flew out. it flew up to the cealing and looked down apon the 3 people.

"Ho-oh," said Jack, his eyes widening.

"We have to catch it, right?" asked Rocky.

"Yes," replied Jack.

"In that case, Go, Corsola!" commanded Rocky.

"Go, Sneasel," commanded Tommy.

Corsola and Sneasel sped out of their balls in a blinding white light. Corsola glittered when it took form.

"Sneasel, use Slash!" shouted Tommy.

Sneasel charged forward and right when it was about to strike Ho-oh, ho-oh started glowing red and flames erupted from its mouth sending Sneasel flying. It crashed into the ground, K.O.ed.

"Wow, Ho-oh's Sacred Fire attack," whispered Jack.

"Corsola, use Bubblebeam!" shouted Rocky.

Bubbles flew from Corsola's mouth and hit Ho-oh right in the chest. Ho-oh didn't seem hurt but it had become slower. It used another Sacred Fire, but it missed.

"Now Corsola, finish it with Hydro Pump!" Rocky commanded.

A giagantic stream of water flew from Corsola's mouth. It struck Ho-oh. Ho-oh started to fall.

"Go, Master Ball!" shouted Jack.

Everybody stared at Jack as he through a ball. Half of the ball was purple and there were 2 pink lines on each side of the purple half. An M was ingraved on the top. The ball collided with the Ho-oh and the Ho-oh was sucked in in a red flash. The ball fell to the floor and stopped moving. The door behind them opened asnd there were many items all over the place. In the center of the room, lay the 2 explorers.
