The Ribald Tale of Tim!

[ShadowJay]

The man, who he assumed was Birch, said: "Quick, you, help me! Pick up one of those balls! There is a Pokemon inside!"

[Sir Sivelos]

Tim hurriedly picked a Pokeball and threw it at the black-and-grey dog.

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

He realized that one Starter versus two Poochyena would be a rather bad matchup, so he tossed another Poke Ball as well-but not before the first hit the ground and revealed itself to be Treeko!

[ShadowJay]

The Treecko was eager to fight, and had no trouble taking down the first of the Poochyena.

[Sir Sivelos]

The second one was a humble Mudkip, which took down the second Poochyena with no issue.

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

The man, stepping over the unconscious Poochyena, picked up his bag before facing Tim and saying: "Thank you, That was terribly close...Uh, sorry, but who are you?"

[ShadowJay]

"Tim," Tim replied, realizing the man was thoroughly shaken by his close encounter.

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

"Nice to meet you Tim, I'm Professor Birch, really Doctor Birch but I like Professor as a title more, hehe," The Professor said to Tim, sweaty from all the running.

[Sir Sivelos]

"Here, let me help you back to your lab…" Tim said, helping Birch to the nearest town.

[ShadowJay]

May had heard about the incident and came running to help, explaining that Professor Birch was her father.
