Dunsparce

The gang came to a small town on their way to Olivine City. Suddenly they noticed a boy looking through some long grass.
"Hey kid, have you lost something?" Ash asked.
"No I haven't lost anything." The boy said. "I'm looking for a wild Dunsparce to catch."
Ash looked Dunsparce up on the Pokedex.
"Dunsparce, the Land Snake Pokemon. When spotted, this Pokemon escapes backward by furiously boring into the ground with it's tail."
"That's a cute Pokemon." Misty said.
"The funny thing about Dunsparce is that they are always mistaken for a bug type Pokemon." Ash chuckled. "But they aren't bug type Pokemon, they're normal type Pokemon."
The boy named Bucky explained that a few weeks ago his grandfather who lived in another town got sick. So he and his parents went to visit him and care for him. After he got better, they all came back. But once they did they found out that lots of Dunsparce came out of nowhere while they were gone and everyone caught one.
"This town must have had a Pokemon swarm." Ash said.
"What's a Pokemon swarm?" Tomo asked. 
Ash explained that a Pokemon swarm is when a large number of Pokemon visit an area like forests, woods, lakes or ponds once a week. Bucky explained that he's been trying to catch one of his own as well. All his friends had one, except him. The gang felt sorry for Bucky and offered to help him find a Dunsparce of his own. Bucky felt grateful and accepted their help.
There was trouble though. Team Rocket was in a park where a lot of kids with their Dunsparce were. Their eyes were on all of the Dunsparce.
"I never thought I would see so many Dunsparce in one place." James said. "They can be hard to find you know."
"It would be great to give them all to the boss." Meowth said. "But how will we get them all from their trainers?"
"Leave that to me." James smiled.
He took out a Poke Ball and out came a Gloom.
"Wow James." Jessie said. "Did your Oddish evolve?"
"Yep." James answered. "And I am extremely proud of her. Okay Gloom, it's time to get to work." 
Gloom nodded in response.
Meanwhile the gang continued looking for wild Dunsparce in the tall grass. Ash had his Mareep, Noctowl and Cyndaquil helping. Tomo had Growlithe, Houndour and Snubbull helping. Brock had Golbat's help. Misty had one of her Marill help; she got it from the Cerulean Gym some time ago. Trying to find a wild Dunsparce turned out to be difficult though.
"I don't think I am ever going to find one." Bucky sighed.
"Yes you will." Ash said. "We just have to keep searching until one is found."
Suddenly a little girl ran up to Bucky and the gang.
"You've got to help us please!" She cried.
"What's wrong?" Bucky asked the little girl.
"The other kids and I were playing in the park with our Dunsparce." The little girl said. "But then this Gloom came out of nowhere and sprayed Sleep Powder over everyone. Then I saw these two people grabbing all of the sleeping Dunsparce. They didn't get mine, because I ran away before Gloom's Sleep Powder could affect us."
"What did these people look like?" Misty asked.
"One was a woman with long hair and the other was a man with short hair." The girl said. "And they had a Meowth with them."
"Team Rocket." Ash said. "We'll handle this. Let's go."
Ash released his Noctowl to locate Team Rocket from the air. Shortly after Noctowl left, the gang raced over to the kids to wake them up. When the kids woke up the girl told them what had happened. The kids started to get upset over their kidnapped Pokemon, but Brock reassured them that the Dunsparce will be found.
Meanwhile Team Rocket was now in the woods with all the Dunsparce they nabbed.
"We did pretty good gathering up all these Dunsparce." Meowth said.
"Thanks to my Gloom and her Sleep Powder attack of course." James said.
"All right, enough chit chat." Jessie interrupted. "We need to concentrate on getting all these Dunsparce back to the boss."
"Oh no you don't!" Misty shouted.
Noctowl had found them and led the gang and the kids to Team Rocket.
"Give us back our Dunsparce!" The kids shouted. 
"No chance brats!" Jessie shouted. She then released her Arbok.
James released his Gloom to battle. Ash sent Mareep out to battle Arbok and Tomo had his Growlithe attack Gloom.
The kids helped too and told their Dunsparce to use Take Down on Arbok and Gloom. Team Rocket and their Pokemon were sent flying from that attack.
The kids were happy to have their Dunsparce back and thanked Ash, Tomo, Misty and Brock.
"Glad to have helped." Brock said.
Suddenly two Dunsparce came out of the ground.
"Hey look, those two Dunsparce are wild." Misty said.
"Now I can catch a Dunsparce of my own." Bucky said, excitedly.
"And me." Ash said. "I wish to have one too."
He used Mareep to battle it while Bucky sent out a Caterpie to battle the other Dunsparce. Of course Misty started to freak out after seeing Caterpie, but it didn't keep her from watching to see how the battle ends. Ash had Mareep use Tackle on the first Dunsparce and Bucky had his Caterpie use Tackle on the other one. The Dunsparce that Mareep was taking on started to wriggle over to Mareep and opened it's mouth to bite Mareep.
"That Dunsparce knows Bite." Ash said. "Mareep, Thunderbolt."
Mareep released a bolt of electricity and Dunsparce was shocked and weakened by it. The Dunsparce that Caterpie was battling used Headbutt on it. 
"Use String Shot Caterpie." Bucky said.
Caterpie released it's silk and the silk immobilized Dunsparce. 
"Now tackle it Caterpie." Caterpie tackled Dunsparce and weakened it.
"Okay time to capture them Bucky." Ash said. Bucky agreed with him.
He and Ash threw empty Poke Balls at the two Dunsparce and soon they were captured.
"All right, we did it." Ash and Bucky said at the same time. "We caught our own Dunsparce."
Tomo, Misty, Brock and the kids congratulated for their captures.
So now Bucky was very happy; he finally had his own Dunsparce and he didn't feel left out anymore. He and the other kids thanked Ash, Tomo, Misty and Brock again for everything and the gang went on their way.
