And SIV portal drops Ginji and Flygon at where Ike and Cody are. "Oh great. This might be fun..." Ginji sighs. "Can we take them?" he whispered to Ike.

*Ike walks up behind Ginji and Cody, curious to what all the ruckus is all about. He laughs when he sees who it is*
Ike: Heya, Dakota.
*Most of the kids smile when they see Ike*
Dakota: IKE! *Lowers his pokeball and holds his fist out*
Ike: *Pounds the rock* How's the team been?
Dakota: Kurt's been grounded. We're all grounded.
Ike: ...then why are you outside playing, getting into fights with Aqua members?
Dakota: *Turns to Cody* Sorry. Didn't know you were with Aqua.
Ike: *Looks at Cody and Ginji* They're ok. Team Rag-Tag kids.
*A kid behind Dakota speaks up*
Kid: TRAINERS!
Ike: sweatdrop Oh, yeah, right.

"Oh, so they are the Rag Tag Trainers." Ginji smiles, noticing the name. "Maybe we could have a practice battle then?" Ginji asked as he had just read their entry in the new archives.

"Never heard of y'all before, but if you're a friend of Aqua's you're a friend of mine." Cody says. "Sorry 'bout the confrontation guys."

Ike: A friendly battle sounds fun. *Turns to Rag-Tag* Up for it?
Dakota: Yeah!
*The three other kids dug for their pokemon. One of them backed out when she noticed her pokemon must be back home.*
Dakota: *Raises his ball back up to Cody* I wanna take you on then!

Sora walks into HQ and plops down on the couch. "Ouch..." He rubs his right arm. "Ouch..." He then rubs his left arm. "Ouch..." He then stops rubbing his arms. Both arms and legs were sore from a long, hard day.

*As Ike watched as the pairs paired up to battle, one kid was left. He was very skinny and wore glasses. He seemed unconfidant.*
Ike: *Looks at him* Battle?
Kid: *Looks down to his shoes* Well, I'd lose.
Ike: Never know 'till you give it a shot. What's your name?
Kid: Dustin.
Ike: Ever battled before?
Dustin: A few times with the other kids in my class... but Ledyba and I always get laughed at.
Ike: We'll I'm not gonna laugh at you guys. *Reaches for Pichu's pokeball and calls him out.*
Dustin: *Cheers up when he sees the Tiny Mouse Pokemon and calls out Ledyba.*
Ike: Ready?
Dustin: *Nods yes* Ok! Ledyba, Bug Buzz!
Ledyba: *Hovers up in the air and starts vibrating its wings loudly.*
Pichu: *Covers his ears in pain.*
Ike: *Does the same and yells* Pichu, Quick Attack!
Pichu: *After the sound dies down, Pichu hits the ground sprinting on all fours. He then jumps and knocks himself into Ledyba, knocking the bug Pokemon into the Pokemon Center's wall.*
Dustin: Ledyba! *Runs over to help Ledyba up. Ledyba, although hurt by the last attack, was not badly hurt*
Ike: *Sees Dustin worry over his Pokemon and calls Pichu back to his side* Everything ok?
Dustin: Yeah. You ok, Ledyba?
Ledyba: *Gets up, ready for the next attack*
Ike: *Nods his head for Pichu to get back out in the battle field.*
Pichu: *Does so with his game face on*
Dustin: Ok, Ledyba! Silver Wind!
Ledyba: *Raises higher in the air and starts blowing wind at Pichu with its wings. The silvery wind hits Pichu with a strong force, making Pichu roll backwards.*
Ike: Pichu, go for a Thunder Wave!
Pichu: *Tries to emit an electrical charge, but the wind gives him too much of a hard time and misses Ledyba*
Dustin: This is it! Ledyba, Comet Punch!
Ledyba: *Glides on the remaining wind from the Silver Wind attack and swoops down at Pichu, hitting him with three of its six appendages. Ledyba flew around and came in for a second go and struck Pichu the same way.*
Pichu: *Falls over to the ground, fainted*
Ledyba: *Flies back to Dustin, celebrating*
Dustin: Wow! We beat him! *Hugs Ledyba*
Ike: *Returns Pichu and walks up to Dustin and Ledyba* How's it feel?
Dustin: *Ledyba flys up and lands on Dustin's head, the two of them very proud of themselves for beating an Aqua Cheif one on one.* Awesome! You didn't go easy on us, did you?
Ike: *Extends his hand for a handshake* Nope, you guys won fairly. Pichu's a new partner of mine. This is a good learning experience for him.
Dustin: *Shakes Ike's hand* No one's going to believe me!
Ike: Don't go being a show-off, now!
Dustin: *Dustin and Ledyba both smile* We won't!

From Ginji's pocket burst two Ivysaurs. A male and a female. "So you two are finally working together?" he asked, looking surprised. Both of them grunted as the awaited their opponents move. From the kid's ball appeared two Furrets. One male, one female. This was certainly going to be a good show.
The Furret team started off with a Helping Hand and Slam combo against Ginji's male Ivysaur doing a massive amount of damage due to Helping Hand. Team Ivysaur both used their Attraction to distract their opponents. Team Furret was baffled and madly in love. The male Furret was immobilized by his love for Ginji's female Ivysaur. Unfortunately, the female Ivysaur wasn't as blind and attacked Ginji's female Ivysaur with a slam attack, doing moderate damage to Ivysaur. Team Ivysaur jumped up into the air and let loose a pair of Sludge Bombs, poisoning both of their opponents in a remarkable streak of luck.
The male Furret saw through its rose colored glasses and attacked the Female Ivysaur, knocking it into the red. The female Furret was immobilized this time. Both Teams were getting weak, and it was still anyone's battle. With massive strength, Team Ivysaur tag teamed the Furrets with a massive Leaf Storm, lowering their Sp. A two stages, but successfully knocking the Furret Team down to fainting. Yet, they still held on by both using a focus band. No matter, the poison took its toll and the Furrets were down.
"Good battle." Ginji smiled at the kid as he returned both of his Ivysaurs.

"Alright. It's on. Cody holds up a pokeball. By the way, it's Dakota right?" Cody said and smiled. "Sorry it took so long guys."
Dakota started out by sending a Furret and a Dustox into battle. Cody responed with Plusle and Totodile. Plusle started off by attacking Dustox with Thunderbolt. Furret came after Totodile with a Slam. Dustox was hit and took a great deal of damage but was still able to battle while Totodile was slammed into the ground by the opposing Furret. Totodile got up and hit Furret with a Water Gun sending it flying back into a lightpost. Furret got up but was barely able to fight after that one. Plusle hit Dustox with a hard Quick Attack while Furret used Take Down on Totodile. Both pokemon fainted. That left only Plusle and Dustox. Dustox used Bug Buzz. The screech brought Plusle to it's knees. After recovering from the violent attack Plusle used Thunderbolt one more time making Dustox faint.
"Nice battle, man. Maybe we can do it again sometime." Cody said and shook Dakota's hand.

*As everyone regrouped after their battles, Ike grew curious*
Ike: So wait, you're grounded Dakota?
Dakota: *Looks down, ashamed.* Yeah... we all are.
Ike: What for?
Dakota: Our parents caught us out late. They don't know about our Team so we had to lie to them.
Dustin: *The young trainer Ike battled spoke up* Yeah. We all snuck out here to talk about what we over-heard some people talking about.
Dakota: *Gets excited* Yeah! Have you guys heard what the Pokemon League is doing in Hoenn?
Ike: ...*Looks at Ginji, then back at Dakota, worried and curious* No... our TV's broke....
Dakota: Steven's been kidnapped! They've been searching for him!
Ike: ...*Is slow to register this* ...What?

Ginji is caught off guard. "Well, that explains a lot." he sighed. "If Steven was kidnapped, then somebody else is pulling the strings behind our bad reputation." Ginji thinks for a bit longer this time. "Who'd be powerful enough to kidnap Steven, have access to a Kyogre Jet, and have access to the editing equipment to change what really happened?" The boy asked while idly playing with Flygon's Pokeball.

"Woah hold on!" Cody was supremely suprised at this. "It's probably Archie, Ike. "

Ike: *While pondering over Ginji's thinking, Cody's assumption made him jump* Archie? We haven't seen him in ages... last I heard he was going after Team Galactic but that was over a year ago. No, it's not Tsunami...
Dakota: *Turns to Ginji* I don't know who'd be powerful enough, but we heard it from two grown-ups working near the Game Corner. Kurtis thought they were bad guys.
Ike: What did they look like?
Dakota: I can't remember, but one of them looked like a salesman or someone. He said something about a Gang! Kurtis heard them better then I did...
Ike: *Thinks "...of course these kids wouldn't know about them..." Ike then mouths the words "L B Gang" to Cody and Ginji.*
Dakota: ...What?
Ike: Nothin. You guys better get back home before you get caught!
Dakota: Fine... come on guys.
*The group of kids walk away, kicking rocks down the road as they dreaded going back home*
Ike: I'm feeling over my head now... I dunno. What do you guys think?

"Eh. Maybe. With my pokemon I proably won't be able to do much but we can sure as hell try until we've lost. I say let's find them and figure out what's going on." Cody looks at Ike with a serious look then looks at Ginji. "What do you think?"

"The LBG may have a station in Johto, and the Game Corner is a likely place for them to hang out..." he sighs. "And as for Archie, I think it might be a reasonable suggestion. I mean, since we haven't seen him in ages, don't you think it may be his revenge? Or his time to make an appearance?" Ginji stated. "He'd have easy access to a Kyogre Jet, probably better access then what Team Clone does."
