# Pokemon: returning champion: New Bark Town Author: Kaminari Kitsune Tags: Battle, Crime, Garchomp, Jolteon, No-Yiff, Pokemon, electrode #4 of Josh Bureon "Oh, Josh. What am I going to do with you?" "Nothing. I'm your lead protagonist, remember?" Also, I can't turn the bold off >.< **Josh** **Me being me, I entered New Bark Town with a bang.  They had just built a new Pokemon Mart, and everything was priced at a steal!** **"Where the hell did you get explosives?" Officer Jenny demanded. "And why did you take everything from the Pokemon Mart?"** **"Well, no one got hurt, did they? I've promised to front the charges, or however that goes. I'm paying a fine and stuff. I've admitted that I did it. I'll even pay the owner back in damages on top of buying the stolen products. What else do you need?"** **Alright, so this is how it went. On the road, I met a girl. We fell into step, and I tried to pickpocket her. Her wallet was in her back pocket.** **Long story short, I failed. I found out immediately that she could kick my ass. Lucky me, I only ended up with a slap on the wrist, the cheek, and finally a double slap from her jigglypuff. My pyroar did what I assume was a chuckle and purred. "_You deserved that,"_ Dunter translated psychicly as the pyroar in question yawned loudly and retreated into her pokeball. What? I'm a good guy. I let my mons come and go as they please. Usually, I only carry pokeballs for ease of movement. When my mons want to be out, they come out. When they want to get in, they get in. ** **Anyways, she retreated and the girl challenged me to a battle. She had six electrodes, and she fought dirty. I won, in the end, but halfway through, I had an idea.** **"Hey, I'm heading to New Bark. And I heard that they opened a Pokemon center over there. Fire blast, garchomp! And it's down!"** **"Yeah? Go on out, 'Lectrode!" She glared at me. "Thunderbolt."** **"It won't work! Anyways, I need a little help."** **"Why should I help you, you perv! Explosion!** **"Explosion. Exactly," I said, grinning. "Get on out there, Angie." I got a shock at that one. Angie hates her name. "Dig!"** **She scowled. "Do I get anything out of it?"** **"Yep. Free Mart goods."** **"I'm in," she said, the concept slowly dawning on her. We shook on it, and everything escalated from there.** **Electrode used explosion. Zoroark disguised our faces. It was the perfect crime. I even had enough money in my sinnoh bank account from my previous league wins to cover the cost if we failed. ** **And we did. She escaped, but I got caught lounging outside of the house of someone named "Crystal". The security cameras had gotten our faces. "You're under arrest," the resident officer Jenny said as I ogled at her figure. "You have the right to remain silent," she continued as I winced at the number of growlithe bites that had suddenly appeared all over my body. And that's where we started.** **Suddenly, a voice pipped up. "It's OK, Jenny. He's with me** Source: https://sofurry.com/s/ZeqYG9Me Part of the series Josh Bureon Previous: https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/987987-pokemon-returning-champion-prologue.md Next: https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/995910-sebastian.md
