A WEEK WITH RANDOM DOOM

“Hello everyone! My name is knd6 and I’m a huge fan of the work of BehindTG, who made herself popular on Deviantart with her Pokémon fanon named random Doom. Everyone remembers the story of the clumsy Lucario Vincent, the hot Infernape Veruka and their friends. When I got permission to do my fanfic of the Random Doom characters, I was overjoyed. So now I welcome you, to a week of Random Doom! Humor, tragedy, sadness, love and every other thing you can think of is included.”

NOTE: I appear in the story as a trainer named Joey Cartwright, which isn’t a real name but merely a rough English translation of my real name and my team is a mix of my favorite of all my teams from all my games combined.

CHAPTER 1: Monday, the full battle

Thing were as normally as it could get on the corral of the famous Pokémon Breeder and former Champion of the Indigo, Jotho, Hoenn and Sinnoh Leagues Jenna. “Cotton and Napoleon, this is not the daycare! Scratch and Presto, stop teasing Alfonso. Danny, don’t try to steal Bonnie’s horns!” Which meant it was a busy day today. But as a good breeder, all the hard work you put in them, it was all worth in the end.

“Ina, take care of the ranch for a while, I’m going to the forest to get some more berries. I’m short on Cheri and Oran Berries. And make sure you keep Presto and Scratch away from Alfonso or they might get eaten one day.” Jenna said to her best friend.

“Okay, but don’t take too long, the Ursaring in the forest are getting a little aggressive. You don’t want to bump into them. Make sure you take enough Pokémon with you!” Ina replied.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take Vincent, Veruka, Rupert, Ross, Napoleon and Cotton with me. No Ursaring will try to mess with me now! (mutters to herself) If I can keep them in check.”

Jenna and her Pokémon gang were now really busy collecting berries, but Vincent was trying to collect a special berry for Veruka, as a gift. “Here Veruka, I have something for you!” he said, hoping for a chance to score.

“We don’t need that berry Vincent. We’re looking for Cheri and Oran berries. Now put it back were you found it and do something right for a change.” Veruka said as she searched the bushes. Vincent pouted and threw the berry he found away…

Vincent should have looked carefully when he threw that berry away, cause it was in the direction of a wild Ursaring. This angered the beast. He jumped from his hiding spot and roared. Everyone backed down in fear. “Don’t worry Veruka, I’ll protect you!” Vincent said as he stepped forward. The Ursaring roared really loud in anger. “Or we can run!”

“Vincent! Did you do it again? Our master warned us already to be careful when looking around for berries. But do you ever listen? No! And we’re not going to run! We can handle them.” Veruka said annoyed. She used a flamethrower on the Ursaring, knocking it out. But this made more angry Ursaring appear. They were with too much to battle directly.

“Now we can run!” Veruka said as she and the others ran for their lives, the angry Ursaring following them nearly all around the forest. But they couldn’t shake of the Ursaring…

“Maybe if we give them some berries they will leave us alone!” Rupert said as he threw an Oran Berry, but the Ursaring had no attention towards it. “We’re doomed!” That was the least they could say. Because now the Ursaring had them cornered.

All of the Ursarings had charged up a Hyper Beam in their mouths. They were almost ready to fire them of, as some strange pink cloud appeared on the scene. This cloud smelled really good and soothed the Ursaring. It was a sweet scent. “Solarbeam!” a voice said and the Ursaring were sent blasting of a la Team Rocket.

“You should really be careful when it’s mating time for the Ursaring. They get ticked of at the smallest things.” The same voice said. It belonged to a trainer who was short, slightly chubby, had a tanned skin, black short hair and brown eyes. He wore jeans, a black t-shirt, a silver colored jacket without sleeves and fingerless gloves with silver markings. Next to him was a Roserade, who had produced the Sweet Scent and Solarbeam. He recalled it in her Pokéball.

“Normally I am careful but my Lucario tends to get me into trouble sometimes.” Jenna said as she scratched the back of her head. Vincent tried to act innocent.

It was then that the trainer looked at Jenna’s Pokémon. Suddenly the serious image he had disappeared. He seemed to be really interested in her Pokémon. “Wow, look at those cool Pokémon. That’s a beautiful and strong Infernape and what an awesome Toxicroak. Oh, what a cute Lopunny and that Floatzel is so cool. And wow, that Raichu looks amazing and…that Lucario seems different, but I still think it’s cool!” he said a little too excited.

Jenna sweat dropped. This guy was nice to help her out, but he was really weird. But at least he showed interest towards her Pokémon. “Er…I want to thank you for helping me out. Those Ursaring nearly fried us.”

The trainer suddenly dropped his hyperactive mood and returned to being serious. “You’re welcome. Nice meeting you. My name is Joey. I’m from Hoenn, and I’m here because of the sightings of Kyogre somewhere near.”

“Hi, I’m Jenna. Breeder and Pokémon Master!” Jenna said, introducing herself to the new guy Joey.

“Wow, are you the Jenna? The one who wan every of the four Pokémon Leagues. Oh, it’s just a honor being in your presence. I’m a huge fan! I even joined your fan club!” Joey answered, all excited again, pulling out his membership card of the fan club. “Please, will you honour me with a full six-to-six battle?”

Jenna thought for a moment. This guy saved her and she didn’t had a really good battle in ages. And she wondered if this guy was a good trainer. “Of course. I love a good match. Any special rules?” Jenna said.

“Six one to one battles in a row. The one who gets most wins out of six wins! No items allowed. And let’s fight next to the pond a little further. So we can battle with any type of Pokémon.” Joey suggested. Jenna smiled.

The two has set up next to the pond, ready for their battle. Jenna had all of her Pokémon out of their Pokéballs, so Joey did know which ones she would use. But she didn’t know which ones he should use. But she was not worried. “Because you helped me out doesn’t mean I’ll go easy on you.”

“I don’t want you to. Now, let’s get this battle started!” Joey, who was in a persona change again, now looked really serious and you could see the fire burn in his eyes and the background. “I’m all fired up!”

“I think you’re really on fire!” Jenna said. Joey then noticed his butt was on fire and he ran around screaming. Napoleon on Jenna’s orders puts him out. “Does that happen often?” jenna asked curiously.

“No, normally I’m only smoking. Now where was I. Oh yeah! Yannie, battle station!” Joey said as he threw a net ball. The ball opened and a Pokémon appeared in a flash of white light. It was a bug Pokémon, a Yanma!

Jenna noticed something around the neck of the Yanma. A necklace with an Everstone on it. This could mean only one thing: Joey liked Yanma was strong enough to evolve, but didn’t. “Napoleon, Let’s squash that bug!” Jenna said. Her trusted Floatzel jumped on the battlefield. He didn’t seemed to be bothered by the Yanma…

The Yanma moved in closer and started to fly around Floatzel like an annoying fly. Besides that, he seemed to be a blabbermouth, as he said really quickly: “Cool, you’re a Floatzel. You’re a water type right? Hey you have two tails? I only got one. And what’s that yellow thing starting in your neck moving up to your body and then your butt? Is that the newest fashion? And why are you orange, is it your natural color?”

“Just shut your flytrap!” Napoleon said annoyed as he tried to punch at the Yanma with a Focus Punch. The Yanma named Yannie just dodged. Yannie just giggled, which annoyed Napoleon even more.

“Napoleon, use Water Pulse!” Napoleon created a blue aquatic orb in his hands and prepared to throw it at Yanma.

“Yannie, use Shadow Ball!” Yannie charged a black orb of darkness in all of his six legs and threw it at the same time as Napoleon threw his Water Pulse. Both attacks collided and exploded, creating a smokescreen. “Aerial Ace!” Yannie used an attack that never misses, so he quickly charged through the smokescreen and hit Napoleon in the stomach.

“Napoleon, use ice beam to freeze that insect in his tracks.” Napoleon charged some bluish white energy in his mouth and fired it in a straight beam at Yannie. Because he is part flying type, the attack would be really effective.

“Double Team and Quick Attack!” Yannie created duplicates of himself, causing the Ice Beam to hit the wrong one. Then all the Yanma charged at full speed towards napoleon. He didn’t know which one was real so this could be difficult.

“Bulk up!” Napoleon inflated the tube around his body, which caused the charging Yanma clones to bounce of and disappear. This left Yannie vulnerable. “Use Aqua Jet, Napoleon!” Napoleon was surrounded by water and charged at Yannie, preparing for a strong impact.

“Psychic, now!” Yannie’s eyes glowed and Napoleon stopped a few inches before impact. He couldn’t move a muscle. “Now, go for a close range Ancientpower!” Yanma channeled white energy from his body in a ball of white light in his legs. He then threw it at Napoleon, who was still immobile by Psychic. Napoleon fell out of the air and fell down hard. He had swrly eyes. Joey wan the first round.

“Napoleon, are you all right?” a worried Cotton asked her boyfriend who was still shaky from being hit by Ancientpower.

“No, because I just got pawned by a hyperactive, blabbermouth Yanma. I feel so humiliated!” Napoleon said angry. He tried to get up, but felt pain in his side and dropped down again.

“That’s the strongest Yanma I’ve ever seen. Napoleon is probably feeling humiliated by now. But at least I know now that this fight is going to be really difficult.” Jenna thought surprised after seeing Joey in action.

“You were awesome Yannie!” Joey said as he hugged Yanma deeply, crying at the same time. Joey was apparently very emotional. Yannie cried too with tears of joy. Yep, like Pokémon, like trainer.

“(thinking) You don’t know what he’s thinking half of the time, but he has both the skills and heart of a trainer. This battle should get fun. But now…(talks) Cotton, you’re up next.” Jenna spoke. The shiny Lopunny took her place on the battlefield and looked determinate to win, hoping to make Napoleon feel better.

“Both beauty and brawn apparently but don’t think I’m not aware of her Cute Charm. Roselina, Battle station!” Joey said as he threw a Green Pokéball with a leaf imprint. Out of it came a Roserade, the one from earlier. This one was very large, even for its species.

“Cute Charm won’t work as this Roserade is female. But there are more ways to fight. Use Dizzy Punch!” Cotton charged forward with her fists glowing a rainbow like color.

“Use Poison Jab!” Roselina’s flowers glowed purple and she charged at Cotton. This was going to be more then a normal fight, but a real catfight. Both of them latched with their fists ferociously, neither hitting their target or get hit themselves. Suddenly, both stabbed each other simultaneously in the stomach.

Both sides fell back to recover from the heavy blow they just took. “Use Energy Ball Roselina!” Joey said and the Roserade charged a green energy in her hands.

“Bounce!” Jenna ordered cotton and she barely dodged the strong Energy Ball fired at her by bouncing up really high into the air. Cotton then came crashing down really fast. Roselina tried to use another Energy Ball, but Cotton rolled sideways in mid-air, dodging the attack before crashing down really hard on the Roserade. The impact has made her faint, and this round went to Jenna.

“You did great, Roselina. Now let’s take a long rest.” Joey said, crying in a mix of sadness and pride. Jenna now really was confused. She got neither head or tails on this guy. But she appreciated that he was good to his Pokémon. “Okay Jenna, take a look at this. Hariki, Battle Station!” Joey threw a Heavy ball and out of it came a Hariyama. “I’m ready for battle Joey-sama!” he said, but to the humans, it sounded like “Hariyama!”

Jenna wanted to command Rupert to get into the fight, but Vincent got on the battlefield instead. He thought if he showed Veruka how strong he was, she might not be angry any more from the Ursaring incident. The Hariyama bowed and put his hands together. “I’m fighting a fellow fighting type. Let’s keep this fight honorable, Lucario-san!”

Vincent jumped up and prepared for a Mega Kick in hariki’s stomach, but it bounced of like it was nothing. Then he tried a Force palm, but Hariki blocked with one hand. “Hariki, use Vital throw!” Hariki still had his hand closed around Vincent’s fist so he could toss him in a tree.

Vincent got up angry. “Vincent, go for Earthquake.” Vincent stomped the ground.Hariki started to get shaken up and loose his balance, falling on his back. “Now close in for Close Combat!” Vincent charged at Hariki, launching various kicks and punches at him.

“In the water!” Joey ordered. Hariki dove into the water of the pond nearby. “Use surf!” Hariki then arose again, riding a large wave of water from the pond. Vincent was washed away. When he got back up, he was soaked. “Now use Brick Break!” hariki smashed down upon Vincent with his large hands, knocking him into the ground and leaving a crater, with Vincent in the middle. Vincent was out.

Vincent was dragged back by Rupert. He stood face to face with Veruka in shame. “Are you proud of yourself? Once again you did something without thinking and now what happened. I wonder if your brains made it at birth.” Veruka said angry to him.

Joey was crying and hugging his Hariyama after his win. He did this after every round, and Jenna decided giving up trying to understand this guy. Jenna then called for Ross going on to the battlefield. “Okay, it’s nice you care about your Pokémon and I must say I’m impressed. But can you save the emotional stuff for later?”

“Okay then. So you picked a Raichu. Then I know what to do! Shiro, Battle Station!” Joey tossed a safari Ball and a very unusual Pokémon came out: an albino Pikachu. The most noticeable about her was a pink bow tied around her neck, making her female.

Jenna’s eyes went wide upon seeing this albino Pikachu, but snapped out of it. “Ross, use Quick Attack!” Jenna wanted to know if this Pikachu could keep up with Ross. And Ross was very fast.

“If it comes to speed, we will not loose! Shiro, use Quick Attack!” The albino Pikachu was very quick too, she could keep up with Ross easily. But could she catch up with his strength? Let’s find out!

“Grass Knot!” Both shouted at the same time and both Chu’s had a green glow in their eyes and both made their opponent trip over the grass. “Iron tail!” Both used their tails to attack each other, but both tails clashed and cancelled out each other’s attacks.

“Shiro, Attract!” a heart shot out of her mouth and hit Ross in between the eyes. Ross was trembling and blushing thanks to the infuating effects of Attract. Ross tried to fight it, because he didn’t really love that Shiro, but Saria.

“You’re Raichu is actually resisting Attract? That’s interesting. Well then, Shiro use Dig!” Shiro dug underground, only for reappearing later. But where would she reappear? “Double Team!” When shiro reappeared, she created duplicates, who would all use the super-effective dig at the same time…

“Thunder wave!” Ross’ Thunder Wave destroyed the copies and stopped Shiro in her tracks. She was not looking good from that Thunder wave. “Now use Focus Punch.” Ross thenmade a fist, which glowed light blue and punched Shiro straight into a tree, knocked out.

“Shiro, are you all right?” “Pika!” “You were so awesome, I’m so proud of you! You grow stronger every day. I remember when you still were a Pichu…” Joey said when crying again. For one thing, he’s not scared to show his emotions.

“He’s wacky, but I somehow like that about him…” jenna thought. She now looked at Rupert. “Okay Rupert, now it’s your time to shine.” The Toxicroak saluted and took his place on the battlefield.

“Okay, now let’s get serious. Mawley, Battle Station!” Joey said upon throwing a Dusk ball. A Mawile emerged from it. She didn’t run towards the battlefield, but towards her trainer, hugging him deeply. “I love you too Mawley, but the fight is over there!” Mawley broke loose and took a battle pose.

“Rupert, use Brick Break!” Rupert thrusted his arms forward like crazy. This would be very affective against Mawile, but this mawile had great speed and dodged every Brick Break.

“Iron Head!” Mawley’s hard head hit Rupert in the stomach. Rupert was then thinking that he should have cut down on the cupcakes this morning. “Now, Crunch!” Mawile’s jaw-like horns bit down on Rupert’s head. He was trapped.

“Poison Sting!” Rupert fired toxic needles from his mouth, into Mawley’s jaws. The attack didn’t do damage as she was a steel type but it made her let go of Rupert. “Now use Brick Break again!” This time, the attack was successful. It hit her straight on.

“Mawley, use Stockpile!” Mawley kept taking the Brick Breaks. But she kept using stockpile over and over again. “Spit up!” Mawley fired the energy stored by Stockpile from the jaws at Rupert. Rupert was knocked out, but Mawley fell down as well from her injuries, making this a tie.

“This means the last battle will determinate the winner! Are you still up to this dudette?” Joey asked, but not before he had comforted his Mawile, cried and recalled her.

“Bring it on! Veruka, you’re on!” The very strong but also incredible sexy and beautiful Infernape was more then ready.

“Fire/fighting type combo? Then you would like this. Meet my starter and star Pokémon! Haru, battle station!” Joey threw an ordinary PokéBall he decorated with a painted flame pattern. A Blaziken emerged from it. This Blaziken roared loud. The look in his eyes were a hint for how strong this one was.

“Attack!” both sides yelled and both Pokémon charged with great speed towards each other. This would be hand-to-hand combat. Punches, kicks and claws were flying around, hitting and missing, dealing or not dealing damage. Until the Blaziken managed to punch veruka in the jaw and throw her into a tree.

“Crush claw!” Blaziken prepared his claws for the finisher, but veruka planted her foot in Haru’s stomach before kicking him into a tree himself. Both Pokémon then glowed with the power of Blaze.

“Overheat!” both Pokémon then charged up heat in their bodies before firing it in a massive burst of flames. Both attacks collided. There was an explosion with a lot of smoke. When the smoke was cleared, you could see both fire types have dropped onto their knees in exhaustion.

“Let’s call it a tie. Both our Pokémon gave all they’ve got and we can be happy about the result!” Joey suggested. Jenna raised an eyebrow. The boy did look wacky first, but he was wise to suggest a tie.

“Okay. I agree. I must say I’m impressed with your skills. I don’t know when I last had this much of a fight. You must have trained a lot.” Jenna said.

Joey blushed, before he broke down in tears again. “Thank you this really means so much to me!” he hugged Jenna tightly, nearly crushing her unintentionally. He didn’t know his own strength sometimes.

He let go of Jenna and she caught her breath. She then heard some rumbling. It came from Joey’s stomach. “Guess you must be hungry. You can come with me to the ranch, so we can have something to eat.”

“Wow, you’re ranch is nearby? And I get to see it? That’s so cool! Thank you. I have been travelling for days with only some sandwiches. You see, I got so excited by the news of Kyogre being seen around here I rushed of in the forest without a map!”

“You really want to see Kyogre don’t you?” Jenna asked curiously.

“I do! And I want to capture him! Ever since I was a kid I and was saved by one from drowning by one I want to catch him! And I won’t give up until I do!” Joey said as he got fired up. So much actually that… “I’m on fire again! Put me out!” Napoleon had to extinguish him again.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the forest near the mountainside, the Ursaring from earlier were gathering frightened around a larger and more menacing Pokémon. The Ursaring were really scared of him. “Master, we have failed to get rid of the trainer you hate so much. Someone came in to save her at the last moment!” one of them said!

“You fools were with about thirty and you were scared of by two trainers? That means it only could have been twelve Pokémon you could have up against! You are worthless. But I’ve waited years for revenge, I can wait some longer.” The Pokémon said.

“But master, you live here! Close to her farm! How come you never attempted to get revenge before?” One of the Ursaring asked.

“Because I wanted to train really hard to evolve, and become the strongest of my kind! So I can easily wipe out that meddlesome trainer permanently!” the Pokémon answered.

Couldn’t you just have used a Metal Coat master? That would have sped up things up a little bit!” another of the Ursaring asked. However, it was something he shouldn’t have asked.

“You dare to doubt my training method! Insolent fool!” the Pokémon roared and he fired a Hyper Beam, sending the Ursaring blasting of. You could hear the Ursaring shout: “I’m sorry! Hey, I see my cave from here!”

“Wow, is this your ranch. Look at all those awesome Pokémon. Wow, a pachirisu and a Chatot. Wow, look at that Vespiqueen and that Honchkrow! Wow, that’s a really cool Leafeon!” Joey said as soon as he saw what was at the ranch.

“Why do you always befriend the weirdest guys, Jenna?” Ina asked after seeing the hyperactive trainer take a look at every Pokémon on the ranch.

“He helped me out…and he is a very good trainer. And most of all, he loves Pokémon. He suggested we made the match a tie to prevent that Veruka and his Blaziken get hurt even more.” Jenna answered.

“But keep a leash on him. I think he needs it. And what me disturbed the most is how much cheeseburgers he ate. It’s almst unnatural. But I must admit, his Pokémon are getting along fine with yours.”

This was mostly true. Yannie played with Scratch and Presto, Roselina and Shiro talked like only girls can with Cotton and Saria, Mawley just followed her trainer around, Hariyama was polite to Rupert and Haru was getting very close with Veruka. He told something that made her laugh. This was not to the taste of Vincent.

“What does that chicken got what I don’t got? I can be funny too…” Vincent moaned.

“Is something bothering you Vincent-san?” Vincent turned around to see Hariki, the Hariyama that defeated him earlier. “I’m sorry for the pain I caused during battle, but I got orders from Joey-sama!”

“It’s fine. I’m not mad. I’m only sad. I just tried to impress Veruka, which has failed…again!” Vincent said upon staring down sadly.

“I see your heart belongs to the fiery princess of combat, and you want to be worthy of her. But you have troubles controlling your emotions, which doesn’t make things come out right the way you want them to.” Hariki said, sensing what’s going on in Vincent’s mind.

“Wow, it’s like you’re reading my thoughts…Hey, maybe you can help me winning Veruka’s heart. The way you talk like that, you must be really smart and must know a thing or two, no?” Vincent said in response.

“I feel flattered, Lucario-san. But not today. I’m really tired. But tomorrow, I’ll see what I can do to help. I love to help unfortunate soulds with matters of the heart.” Hariki said. He bowed and left…And the night was going to fall soon.

Monday was coming to and end, but it was just the beginning of the week of Random Doom. What none of them knew is that this week was going to get really bizarre…
