Chapter 63 - Fast Ball and the Fast Aipom!

Continuing from the last chapter, Rize was in a great pinch with his battle against FeiChong!
FeiChong: Finish it with Poison Sting!
Rize: Hoothoot use Confusion maximum power! Give it everything you got!
Hoothoot sent back the Poison Sting to Spinarak and hit Spinarak with maximum power Confusion attack which is super effective.
Referee: Spinarak is unable to battle! Hoothoot wins! The challenger Rize wins the match!
Rize: Yes!! Hoothoot you're great!
FeiChong: Nooo!! How can I lose to you again?! How is Hoothoot able to turn things around like that?!
Rize: Enough chatter and give me the badge right away!

Rize earned his 2nd Johto Gym Badge which is the Junior Hive Badge. He then went to Pokemon Centre to rest and stay for the night. The next day..
Rize: Hey old man Kurt I'm back for my special Pokeball! Is it ready yet?
Kurt: It's done for quite awhile already! Here take this! It turned into a Fast Ball! You can catch a fast and agile Pokemon with this ball better!

Rize: Wow! Looks pretty cool! Can't believe an Apricorn can really turn into this! Maybe you just buy this Fast Ball somewhere and lied that you actually make it from the Apricorn..
Lyra: No way! Grandpa is really the Pokeball maker Expert!
Kurt: And only high experienced level Pokemon Trainer can use my special Pokeball! I'm not sure that you can use it.
Rize: What's the big deal? I just use it like normal Pokeballs..
Kurt: Hm! Don't just talk and catch a Pokemon with that ball and come back here if you have succeeded!
Rize: Fine! But it looks like I'm being ordered around since I came to your house!
So Rize went outside searching for wild Pokemon to catch and he saw a very fast and agile Pokemon climbing the trees very swiftly. Rize checked his Pokedex.

" Aipom the Long Tail Pokemon. It is a Normal type. Aipom lives high among the tree tops. Its tail is so powerful that it can use it to grab a tree branch and hold itself up in the air. "

Rize: Aipom! It must be a very fast Pokemon! Fast Ball go!
Rize threw the Fast Ball at Aipom but it didnt even absorb Aipom.
Rize: What?! That old man lied!
The angry Aipom attacked Rize.
Rize: Marshtomp use Water Pulse!
The speedy Aipom dodged Marshtomp Water Pulse and attacked with Fury Swipes!
Rize: Marshtomp Rock Smash!
This time Marshtomp Rock Smash succesfully hit Aipom.
Rize: Allright! Fast Ball go!
But again Fast Ball just hit Aipom and went back to Rize.
Rize: What the?! This thing is really useless!
Ling: Hihi.. There's a secret way to catch Pokemon using Kurt's special Pokeball.
Rize: Ling?! Why're you here?!
An old friend unexpectedly showed up when Rize in trouble. What secret does Ling know about Kurt's special Pokeball? Find out on the next chapter!
