On to Mt. Moon.

"Well fought! Your charmeleon is quite the power house!" $200 were handed over as the trainer congratulated me on the victory. This marked the 6th win on route 3 against other pokemon trainers.

"Thanks, I appreciate it. Me and charmeleon have been working hard to get stronger. I'm glad to see it paying off. You have a wonderful day sir!" I waved goodbye as I walked away. I could see a red roofed building a few dozen feet down the path.While strange to see a pokemon center outside of a city you weren't going to complain. Several of the defeated trainers had told me that just nearby the pokemon center was the tunnel entrance to the path leading through nount moon. Worried about lights, I had asked around how dark it was, and if I would need any rock climbing gear. A rock climber I beat earlier however disabused me of this notion, since he said there were plenty of holes in the sides and along the ceiling to let light in.

"Well, at least I know I wont be blind as a zubat." A quick stop and a talk with the nurse joy, and i was on the way through the tunnels. Stopping here or there to beat the occasional pokemon trainer or zubat, the journey went smoothly. Right up until I had to prepare for trouble. A man dressed all in black with a red R across the feont stopped me.

"Hey, we are team rocket, and were are like gangsters. Give me your money or face my pokemon!"

A rattata then burst from his pokeball. I let out a sigh of relief, when it was obvious he wasn't going to be a challenge. One quick metal claw, and he became the one handing over his wallet.
