Enter Team Dread

It was sunset as Jimmy made it back to the Violet City Pokemon Center. He enters and takes his Pokemon to Nurse Joy, but Allison stays with him. He heads over to groom her. Voice-"What a nice Vulpix." Jimmy-"Huh?" He turns and ses another trainer with a Sandshrew, Sandslash, and a Poliwrath. Marcus-"She sure is cute." Jimmy-"Oh, hello. You like my Vulpix?" Marcus-"Oh yeah. She reminds me of mine. The name's Marcus." Jimmy-"I'm Jimmy. (Notices a Badge Case) So your a Pokemon Trainer too?" Marcus-"Yep. Been one for quite a while." Jimmy-"I'm just starting out as one." Marcus-"So, your a rookie. Don't let the pressure get to ya." Jimmy-"I won't. Your Poliwrath, Sandshrew and Sandslash look impressive." Marcus-"Thanks."
Night falls. A hot air baloon was floating in the air. Lawrence-"The target is in site." Chelsea-"Good. We'll make our leader proud." Bugeze-"And begin our reign of terror in Johto." Jimmy got his Pokemon back and was feeding them. Marcus-"Sandshrew and my other Pokemon like that Pokemon food of yours Jimmy." Jimmy-"Thanks. My dad taught me how and I had practice making some. Trial and error." Marcus-"Yeah. I had more errors." Jimmy-"I wonder where Amy and Kamon went." Marcus-"Was one sounding like a cocky person and the other with some kind of a locket?" Jimmy-"Yeah." Marcus-"Oh. They left a while back. The boy said he's off to Azalea town and the girl said she was going to Union Cave to catch an Onix." Jimmy-"Oh. Well, guess I'll be heading for Azalea in the morning." Suddenly there's a siren going off. Marcus-"Uh oh, sounds like trouble." Jimmy-"What's going on?" Jenny's voice-"This is Officer Jenny with urgent news. Pokemon thieves have been spotted in the area. Avoid them if you can. I repeat..." Lawrence-"There's the Pokemon Center." Chelsea-"Let's get to work." Bugeze-"Right." They threw their Poke Balls down through the top of the opening of the center. A Tyrogue, A Grimer, and a Venonat appeared and Grimer uses Poison Gas. Jimmy-"Gah! What's going on?"
Chelsea-"We'll tell you what's going on." Lawrence-"But you won't like it." Bugeze-"We're Team Dread, and we're here to take all the Pokemon this Center has." Marcus-"What?!" Joy-"You can't. There are sick and injured Pokemon here." Chelsea-"True, but we'll find some good ones...like those over there." Marcus-"What? Mine? I won't let you take 'em." Bugeze-"We'll see about that. Use Poison Sting Venonat." Marcus-"You use Poison Sting too Sandshrew." It was a stalemate. Chelsea-"Tackle attack Tyrogue." Sandshrew was hit. Marcus-"Hang in there Sandshrew. Poliwrath, use Water Gun and Sandslash, use Swift." Lawrence-"Smokescreen Grimer." They couldn't see. Marcus-"Can't *cough* see." Jimmy-"Use Gust Katrina." She blows the smoke away. Chelsea-"Our cover's blown. Oh well, we'll make due with these." Jimmy-"They got your Pokemon Marcus." Marcus-"Not a problem. Sandslash, use Slash." He cuts them free. Team Dread-"Nooooooo!" Jimmy-"Serena use Razor Leaf and Allison use Ember. (Dread's Pokemon got hit) Kevin, Katrina, Brian and Ariel, group Tackle. (Their Pokemon got hammered) Now Katrina, Whirlwind." She blows Team Dread out of the center just as Officer Jenny arrives. Jenny-"Wow. Talk about getting the wind knocked out of you."
As dawn breaks Team Dread were hanging by their baloon. Chelsea-"Blast. How can a kid beat us. The best of the best of Team Dread?" Lawrence-"Don't know, but those Pokemon of his were tough despite being so young." Bugeze-"Their a primo package. Just the kind our boss wants." Chelsea-"We'll get that brat's Pokemon soon enough." They laughed. Back at the center, Jimmy was getting ready to go. Marcus-"Your Pokemon were something else Jimmy. I'm impress." Jimmy-"Thanks. They deserve the credit. So, where your going Marcus?" Marcus-"I won my Zephyr Badge two days ago but I'll hang out in Violet City one more day before heading out." Jimmy-"So your gonna try out for the Johto League too? Cool." Marcus-"Keep up with your training Jimmy." Jimmy-"You too Marcus." And Jimmy says goodbye to Marcus and he heads for Azalea Town, where his next Gym Battle awaits.
