His penchant for not stopping pushed a few people away from him though as whenever he does that he only focuses on the one task in front of him.

'You are an idiot.' Austin could hear in his head.

~Four Years Ago~

An eleven-year-old Austin was on his back panting as a fourteen-year-old teen stood over him shaking his head.

"Austin you are an idiot."

"I heard you the first time," Austin said glaring at his older brother who had blonde hair and green eyes.

"Doesn't make it any less true." The boy said helping Austin up. "What was it this time?"

"..." Austin looked down. "I made a bet that I could outrun some of the Track Members."

"And they left you in the dust." The teen sighed. "You thought you could do that when you sit around playing video games all day?"

"I could've," Austin muttered despite it sounding stupid. "Come on Leroy, you know I'm quick on my feet."

"Yeah at a short distance." Leroy Kevin deadpanned. "Those guys beat you the moment you started you need to do things in moderation."

~Present Time~

Austin shook his head to get out of his memories as Fearow kept glaring before Leroy's words echoed in his head.

'You need to do things in moderation.'

Sighing, Austin put the brush down. "Okay, we'll come back to brushing you later." He said as Fearow looked away.

"That's probably a good idea," Brock said a bit relieved that nothing bad happened there.

Austin sat down as he stared at Fearow's Pokeball.

He screwed up.

'One step at a time.' Austin reminded himself before he sent Rattata out.

"Pikachu, Rattata are you guys ready to train? I have some combinations you guys would love."

Rattata gained a smirk as she preferred sparring with Pikachu in response to fighting Bug Types Pikachu returned the smirk.

Later that evening, Austin was in his room with all of his Pokemon except for Fearow out, the main reason being that it was too small for the bird to fit in.

At the moment he was brushing Rattata, thinking that he wasn't going to make the same mistake he did with Fearow again.

Rattata seemed to enjoy it as Pikachu was curled up on the bed, Butterfree was on the dresser and Pidgeotto was on the top of a chair, her talons resting on it.

"You guys are getting stronger by the day," Austin said as he continued brushing Rattata. "We'll be ready for the Gym tomorrow."

He didn't know how many Pokemon the Gym would allow him to use, it could be all of them like when he challenged Brock, or it could be the regular rules.

But the main Pokemon he would use would be Pikachu, Rattata, and Pidgeotto.

Butterfree won him his first badge and Fearow wouldn't even listen to him.

'Just five more days.' Austin thought remembering how they would challenge the Gym after their week of training.

Early the next morning, Austin was by himself as he moved past the Nugget Bridge, heading to the Cerulean Cape where he fought some more trainers, he left a message with Nurse Joy so Brock and Yellow wouldn't worry about him.

There were no Bug Catchers so he was able to have his Pokemon battle more efficiently than before.

The Pokemon that these trainers had were Geodudes, Machops, Nidorans, Oddish, and Bellsprout.

One Hiker even had an Onix as well.

Rattata took to these challenges happily as they were a lot more fun than fighting Caterpie and Weedle.

Pidgeotto looked to be growing a bit in size to Austin's surprise but she was also showing a lot of strength in these fights.

Butterfree dominated the fights with his Confusion and Gust attacks.

Pikachu was kind of struggling as he had some disadvantages with the various Grass Types, but he was showing how strong he was and he finally managed to pull off the Counter-Shield after some trial and error.

"Alright!" Austin said as Pikachu landed on the ground after taking out someone who had a Nidorino. "Nicely done Pikachu."

"Chu." Pikachu looked pleased with himself.

That was when they heard clapping.

"Bravo, bravo." A girl's voice said causing them to turn around to see a brunette wearing a black dress clapping her hands where she wore white gloves. "Nicely done."

Pikachu looked curiously as he saw Austin tense on seeing the girl.

'I know this girl.' Austin thought trying not to look suspicious. 'Her name is either Green or Blue, the name varies from what version of the Manga she was in.'

"Thanks," Austin said keeping a wary eye on her due to how she was a thief in the Manga.

The girl however saw the wary look and gave a pout. "Oh come on, what's with the look?"

"Sorry, but who are you?" Austin asked as Pikachu jumped on his shoulder.

"Just someone who was passing by when I saw your battle, you have a strong Pikachu." The girl said causing Pikachu to look pleased. "You must be a great trainer."

"Well, he was my first Pokemon," Austin said reaching up and scratching Pikachu's head before the girl crossed her arms and looked sad.

"It's too bad that you aren't using him at his Max potential."

Austin frowned. "What do you mean?" He asked before she grinned and pulled out a box of items.

"These items are standard equipment for any great Pokemon Trainer and they can boost their abilities." The girl said holding them out as Austin recognized this from the Manga.

Now ordinarily he would've called her out on that, but a mischievous thought entered his head and Austin gave a smile. "Sure why now?"

When he wasn't looking the girl had a predatory smirk. 'Hook, line and sinker.' She thought as she adopted a grateful smile when Austin looked back.

"So what are these items anyway?" Austin asked taking a notepad to look as if he was going to write them down as she went into an explanation of the Attack Plus and the X-Defend.

"And that will be four thousand Pokedollars." The girl said at the end of the explanation.

"That many?!" Austin asked in surprise as the girl gave a nod.

"Well of course~." She said in a sing-song tone. "These are top-quality items after all."

"If you say so," Austin said giving her the Poke as she handed him the items.

"You won't be disappointed." The girl said as she ran off, leaving Austin to smirk as he pulled out what looked to be Poke.

"But I think you will be when you find out I just pickpocketed you," Austin said while Pikachu gave him a look of disbelief. Austin smirked as he looked at Pikachu who had recreated the infamous surprise Pikachu face," What? These items are fake and she was going to scam us, so I scammed her back."

Pikachu tilted his head to the side before looking in the box and frowning as he saw that the items were indeed fake.

"Besides she has the four thousand I gave her," Austin said counting the ones that he took to show five thousand. "So I didn't completely rob her."

It was a familiar scream.

' Was that Misty?!' Austin thought in surprise.
