Pokémon Opening Theme: "Catch 'Em All!"
Yo, it's time to step out, hit the road,

With my Pokédex ready, I'm in beast mode.

Gotta catch 'em all, that's the game we play,

From Kanto to Johto, we'll find a way.

Chillin' with my crew, it's a Pokémon fight,

Battlin' trainers, yeah, we're takin' flight.

Pikachu sparkin', hear that thunder roar,

With Arceus beside me, I'm ready for more!

Catch 'em all, every type, let's go!

Fire, Water, Grass, we're putting on a show!

Legendary battles, we'll rise and stand tall,

In the world of Pokémon, we gotta catch 'em all!

From the Viridian Forest to the ocean blue,

Every step I take, there's a challenge anew.

Eevee evolvin' into Flareon, oh so bright,

With my Gyarados, I'll win every fight.

Gym battles comin', gotta earn that badge,

With strategy and skills, I'm ready to clash.

Eclipse Order lurkin', they don't stand a chance,

With my Legendaries, we're here to advance!

Catch 'em all, every type, let's go!

Fire, Water, Grass, we're putting on a show!

Legendary battles, we'll rise and stand tall,

In the world of Pokémon, we gotta catch 'em all!

In this world of dreams, we're making history,

Friends by my side, it's a victory spree.

Trading, battling, we'll climb to the peak,

With every encounter, it's the thrill that we seek!

So if you're ready, grab your Poké Balls tight,

Together we'll shine, like stars in the night.

From Mewtwo to Rayquaza, we'll fight till we fall,

In the world of Pokémon, we gotta catch 'em all!

Catch 'em all, every type, let's go!

Fire, Water, Grass, we're putting on a show!

Legendary battles, we'll rise and stand tall,

In the world of Pokémon, we gotta catch 'em all!

With the dawn of a new day, Theo felt a mix of excitement and nerves bubbling inside him. After escaping the storm and the danger from Team Rocket, he knew it was time to prove himself as a trainer. His first step? To challenge Brock, the Gym Leader of Pewter City.
"Today is the day," Theo declared as he looked at Arceus, who was still getting used to its new surroundings. "We're going to show everyone what we can do!"
Arceus regarded him with a serious expression. "Are you prepared, Theo? Brock is a skilled trainer, and he will not hold back."
"I know," Theo replied, determination shining in his eyes. "But we have to start somewhere. I believe in us!"
After packing his things, including some healing items and snacks, Theo and Arceus made their way to Pewter City. The streets bustled with trainers and their Pokémon, all eager to show off their skills. Theo felt a surge of confidence as he walked among them, the KY Ball securely in his pocket.
As they approached the Pewter City Gym, Theo noticed the imposing stone structure. It looked grand, adorned with statues of various Rock-type Pokémon. He took a deep breath, reminding himself of his goal.
"Are you ready?" Arceus asked, its voice echoing in the back of Theo's mind.
"I am," Theo replied, stepping forward. He pushed the door open and stepped inside.
The gym was dimly lit, with a rocky terrain that resembled a cave. Brock stood at the far end, his arms crossed, looking calm and collected. He was a tall figure, with spiky black hair and a friendly smile.
"Welcome to the Pewter City Gym," Brock said, his voice steady. "Are you here for a battle?"
"Yes!" Theo replied, his heart racing. "I'm Theo from Pallet Town, and I'm ready to challenge you!"
Brock raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Very well, Theo. I'll accept your challenge. But be warned, I specialize in Rock-type Pokémon."
Theo nodded, determination fueling his spirit. "I understand. But I'm ready!"
They moved to the battlefield, the tension palpable in the air. Theo recalled the training sessions he had with Arceus, focusing on strategy and how to utilize its unique abilities. The KY Ball had indeed given Arceus some of its powers back, but they needed to work together to succeed.
"Let's do this!" Theo shouted, sending Arceus into the fray. The legendary Pokémon emerged in a flash of light, its majestic form shining brightly against the rocky backdrop.
Brock smirked, unfazed. "Go, Geodude!" he called, tossing out his first Pokémon. The round, rock-like creature landed on the field with a thud, ready for battle.
"Arceus, use Judgment!" Theo commanded, recalling the powerful move they had practiced.
Arceus raised its head, channeling its energy. A beam of light shot forth, aimed directly at Geodude. The attack hit, sending the rock Pokémon tumbling backward. Theo felt a rush of exhilaration; they were off to a great start!
"Not bad, but Geodude can take a hit," Brock said, unfazed. "Geodude, use Defense Curl!"
Geodude rolled into a ball, its defenses rising. Theo knew they had to keep the pressure on.
"Arceus, use Hyper Beam!" he shouted, remembering the move they had learned together.
With a powerful roar, Arceus unleashed a massive beam of energy that struck Geodude, causing it to crash against the wall. The impact created a cloud of dust, and Theo's heart raced with excitement.
"Geodude is down!" Theo cheered, but Brock was already sending out his next Pokémon.
"Come back, Geodude! Go, Onix!" Brock called, summoning his massive Rock/Ground-type Pokémon. Onix towered over the battlefield, a serpent-like creature made of boulders.
Theo felt a shiver run down his spine. "This will be tougher," he said, glancing at Arceus. "But we can handle it!"
"Stay focused, Theo," Arceus advised. "Onix is strong, but we can outsmart it."
"Arceus, use Agility to dodge its attacks!" Theo commanded.
As Onix lunged forward, trying to strike with its powerful tail, Arceus moved swiftly, dodging the attack with ease. "Now, use Judgment again!" Theo shouted.
Arceus unleashed another powerful beam, but Onix was quick. It coiled and used Rock Throw, launching boulders towards them. Theo watched in horror as the rocks flew through the air.
"Arceus, watch out!" he yelled, but the legendary Pokémon used its power to create a protective barrier, deflecting the boulders away.
"Impressive!" Brock said, nodding. "But can you keep that up?"
Theo felt the pressure mounting. They had to finish this quickly. "Arceus, let's use Recover to regain some energy!"
Arceus glowed with a soft light, restoring some of its strength. "Good thinking," Arceus said. "We need to be at our best for this battle."
Once Arceus was ready, Theo made his move. "Now, use Hyper Beam again!"
With a fierce roar, Arceus unleashed the powerful attack, hitting Onix squarely in the chest. The giant Pokémon staggered backward, clearly hurt but still standing.
"Onix, hang in there! Use Rock Tomb!" Brock commanded.
Onix raised its tail and slammed it onto the ground, causing rocks to shoot up around Arceus, trying to trap it. Theo felt his heart race as the rocks closed in.
"Arceus, use Protect!" he shouted, and Arceus responded, creating a barrier just in time to shield itself from the incoming stones.
The rocks crumbled harmlessly against the barrier, and Theo felt a rush of adrenaline. "Now! Finish it with Judgment!" he yelled.
Arceus summoned its energy once more, releasing a brilliant beam of light that struck Onix directly. This time, Onix couldn't withstand the attack. It collapsed onto the ground, defeated.
Theo jumped in excitement. "We did it! We beat Brock!"
Brock smiled, impressed. "You fought well, Theo. Your bond with Arceus is strong, and you showed great strategy in this battle."
Theo beamed with pride, but there was still one thing he needed to hear. "Thank you, Brock! But how can I improve?"
Brock nodded, his expression serious. "Keep training. You have potential, but don't let victories go to your head. Each battle is a lesson. Learn from them and keep challenging yourself."
Theo nodded, understanding the importance of training and growth. "I will, Brock! Thank you for the advice!"
Brock handed Theo the Boulder Badge, a symbol of their battle. "Congratulations, you've earned this."
Theo accepted the badge with gratitude, feeling a sense of accomplishment. "Thank you! I'll make sure to keep training hard."
As he left the gym, Theo felt a new sense of determination. He and Arceus had faced their first challenge together and emerged victorious. But this was only the beginning. With the threat of Team Rocket looming and more challenges ahead, Theo knew he had to grow stronger.
"Ready for our next adventure, Arceus?" Theo asked, glancing at his companion.
"Always," Arceus replied, its voice steady. "Together, we will face whatever comes our way."
And with that, they set off, ready to take on the world and become the trainers they were meant to be.
Until We Meet Again...
