Chapter Six-A B Rocking Mirakle In a Miror: A Family of B’s
“Last time on… Whatever we’re calling this fanfiction, Dizzy, Grovyle and Alex went to Viridian Forest. Then the All-Powerful, amazing, superbly awesome Grovyle yelled the most hilarious statement in the whole entire universe, which was-“
“Grovyle, remind me to never let you do the ‘Last time on HTSS…’, okay?” Dizzy interrupts. Grovyle crossed her arms and ‘hmph’ed’, but allowed Dizzy to take over nonetheless. Dizzy cleared her throat before speaking.
“Hello, welcome back to How to Save Serebii, or HTSS if you want to go by the official acronym. Anyways, last time on HTSS, Dizzy, Grovyle, and Alex traveled to Viridian Forest and met the giant Caterpie line. They all scattered when Grovyle yelled something very stupid that should never ever EVER be said because-“
“Dizzy, I think you just took this job so you could make fun of my humor, which is better than yours!”
“ALRIGHT, WOULD YOU TWO SHUT UP ALREADY?!?” Alex yelled, snatching the microphone and finishing the introduction.
“Last time on HTSS, the trio was attacked by the-*gulp*- g-g-giant bugs of the C-C-Caterpie line. And in this Chapter-“
“Alex, you don’t tell them what’s about to happen; only what’s already happened, because it gives us a chance to be really funny,” Dizzy interjected.
“Whatever, shouldn’t we at least mention that the pencil magically transported us out of Viridian Forest?” Alex questioned.
“Well, the whole few people reading this just heard so that was pretty pointless,” Dizzy answered. “Let’s just start with the actual story, because we’re already up to a page on Microsoft Word.
“Holy crap, does talking really take up that much space?!” Grovyle exclaimed.
“Yes, so shut up,” Dizzy replied.

“Wait, so where are we?” Grovyle questioned. Dizzy facepalmed at her remark.
“Grovyle, we went over this before we started. We’re in Pewter City, okay?” Dizzy said, annoyed.
“Wait, we’re in Pewter City? So that means…” Alex said slowly. “OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!! A GGGGGGGGGGYYYYYYYYMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” he finished after seeing a poster on the side of the Pokémon Center that read
Come and take the Pokémon Gym Challenge! Defeat eight gym leaders and win eight badges to get your very own spot in the Pokémon League! Where’s the first leader, you ask? The very first gym leader just so happens to be…
*pause for dramatic effect*
PEWTER CITY’S VERY OWN B. ROCK!!!
Warning: Gym battles are only recommended for those of age ten or older. This is due to the fact that some gym leaders are potty mouths.*
*Pokémon League, Inc is not responsible for physical or mental damage done to Pokémon or your child.
Alex ran off in the direction of the gym, Dizzy and Grovyle trailing behind.

“What’s with all the stupid Pokémon? Don’t they tame them or something?” Bob asked.
“No you idiot, that’s why they’re called wild Pokémon! Drago replied, knocking him upside the head. The trio was traveling through Route 1, Rattata and Pidgey crossing their path an umpteen number of times.
“Well anyways, I would’ve thought Kanto at least had a decent sense of what looks good; untamed grass combined with pathways and short grass looks absolutely terrible!” Psy said. She had managed to find another pair of high heels inside the house they had stayed in overnight, and was now treading difficultly through the grass.
“Psy, your complaining doesn’t make it easier to find his trail,” Bob replied, being the only one who had worn walking shoes. They walked in silence for another minute or two when they reached Viridian City. They saw a boy arguing with the guards at the Pokémon league gate.
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN I CAN’T GO?!” the boy yelled.
“You don’t have enough badges. You need at eight,” the taller of the guards said. He had a short brown mustache and a brown beard, but he also wore black glasses. The other guard was shorter than the ten-year-old boy, but wore the same glasses, which covered his single brow. He had a handlebar mustache (although it looked very fake, like it had been glued on).
“That’s a stupid rule! You shouldn’t need eight stinkin’ badges to go battle some trainers! I’ve already battled every single idiot in Viridian Forest, so my Charmander’s strong enough to beat anyone!” He said, releasing his fiery lizard. The moderators approached them, and they all stopped to turn and stare at their odd way of dressing. Nobody wore jumpsuits in Kanto those days, apparently. Then Drago had enough sense to pull the boy aside and ask him a very important question.
“Do you know who his person is?” She asked, holding up a picture that was conveniently unseen by everyone else.
“Yeah, I saw him the other day. He was with two other kids, a boy and a girl, and they were heading towards Viridian Forest.”
“Thank you, er-“ Drago said, unsure of his name.
“Name’s Blue. I’ll show you if you want.”
“That would be great, thank you,” she replied. The three moderators and Blue walked off, ignoring the crazy coffee man and the Dream Eating man.

Grovyle and Dizzy leaned against the side of Pewter City’s gym, panting like dogs. Alex, on the other hand, was practically bouncing off the walls with excitement, like a kid who had just ate a bucket of candy. Or, more precisely, a boy who was really excited about going and battling a gym leader. He tried to open the doors, but they wouldn’t open. Grovyle looked over and saw him pushing the door. She facepalmed and just pointed to the sign that said “pull”.
“Oh,” he said as he pulled it. The trio went in, and gasped. Unlike how you would expect, the gym was dyed in a rainbow tie die pattern. There was a disco floor and a mirror ball hung above in the middle of it. There were people dressed in a classic 70’s look dancing on smaller disco floors that made a sort-of path to the large one. Then, two people approached them. The taller one crazy purple glasses with little yellow wings on them, a starred yellow suit, white shoes and an afro that looked like a Pokeball. The smaller one was practically a mirror image of the other, except he looked as if he was trying to grow out an afro. They both sported a walk where they shook their hips and did the disco to the music playing. The older one spoke with a strong accent.
“Hell-oooooooo, childrens!! Fine day to let the music play, ain’t it? I’m Miror B, and this is my mini-me, Mirakle B! Are you here to challenge the leader of this here gym?” He said, emphasizing his words with freeze-dancing and posing, along with shaking his hips.
“Yes, we- Well, more specifically him,” Grovyle answered, pointing at Alex, who was gawking at the man.
“Welllllll, ho-ho-ho! Pitty that is, ‘cause the B Rock Man ain’t around right now. He’s off at some hoopla of a galla, dancing his little bee-hind off. So me and Mirakle here are runnin’ this show! You wanna have a lil’ dance off of our own? You got to have at least two Pokémon, ‘cause I can’t leave my descendant out ‘a the action, you know?”
“Crap, I only have one Pokémon!” Alex yelled, stamping his foot on the ground.
“I’ll do the dance off thingy with him!” Dizzy said, just as Miror B was about to say “oh well”.
“Well ho-ho-ho then! Follow me!” He responded, walking off down a hallway. A little ways down the hallway, they entered a room with a single dance floor, an HD TV, and a Wii. There was a copy of “Pokepark 2: Wonders Beyond” lying to the side of the Wii under a pair of Wii Remotes.
“This is the dance off room! First, I’ll dance with my Pokémon on Lopunny’s Dance Inferno, the Mirakle will go. The girl’ll go after, and then you. So, let the music play! Go Ludico-lo!” Mirior B said, emphasizing the last syllable and throwing his Pokeball. The Mexican-looking Pokémon had a cheery grin, and obviously took walking lessons from his trainer. They each picked up a remote and began the game, vigorously shaking their hips and energetically copying the Lopunny on the screen. Miror B made a small mistake towards the end, and he looked devastated. His Ludicolo patted his back while he slouched, comforting him. They handed off their remotes to Mirakle, who released his Pokémon.
“Let the, erm, music start! Go Lotad!” He stumbled, releasing his little lily pad Pokémon. The little Pokémon held up one of its tiny blue feet, and Mirakle tried to wrap the wrist strap around it, but the poor Pokémon couldn’t even pick up the remote. Miror B sighed and put a hand on his forehead while Mirakle did a classic anime-style devastation fall. Alex and Dizzy just stared, but Grovyle wasn’t paying attention; she was having a thumb wrestle with herself. Before anything else happened, the door was thrust open.
“Boss! These here kids and their talking friend wanted to have a dance-off, and ho-ho-ho I wasn’t ‘bout to say no! Did you enjoy your vacation in Mt. Moon?” Miror B said to the man who had just walked in. The man looked like he had just taken a time warp from a 70’s Roller Rink; he wore roller blades, long socks that were baggy, bright purple skin-tight pants, a tie die shirt covered by a yellow jacket with a cape, and a bright purple feather boa that hung to his waist on both sides. He had a small afro that paled in comparison to Miror’s, and had bright purple glasses as well, although they were more like goggles in the shape than glasses.
“Miror, Mirale, thank you so much for keepin’ these persons entertained. I’ll take over now,” he said, turning off the power on the Wii. “Allow me to introduce myself. I’m-” he said as he flicked his cape backwards, “THE B. ROCK MAN!” He finished, striking a pose.
“What does the ‘B’ stand for?” Grovyle asked.
“BOSS OF BREAK DANCING!” he shouted. “Well, now, why don’t we all get out ‘a here and go have a good ol’ battle?”
“Sure, that’s what we came here to do in the first place anyways,” Dizzy said, shrugging. They all left the room and went back to the large one with multiple dance floors, where B Rock took his place on one side of the largest disco floor, and Alex stood on the other.
“Are you ready to battle?” he asked, taking off his glasses, which revealed…

… B Rock’s closed eyes!
“Yeah! Go Eevee!” Alex shouted, releasing his brown Pokémon.
“An Eevee? ‘Kay, go Geodude!” B Rock yelled, and the armed rock Pokémon was released. It was wearing a black jacket, black shades, and an afro.
“Eevee Tackle it!” Alex yelled, pointing. The brown Pokémon charged at the rock, slamming it. Geodude didn’t budge, but Eevee stumbled back, dizzy from the impact. B Rock didn’t waste time I taking advantage of the oppurnity.
“Geodude! Use Metronome with a classic disco twist!” B Rock yelled. The rock wagged its finger while dancing the disco. Then, it began to dance elegantly as petals floated around it. Without warning, the petals attacked when Geodude pointed at Eevee, and she was instantly knocked out.
“Was that your only Pokémon? I don’t see no more Pokeballs on your belt.” B Rock said, his rock still dancing to the music.
“Uh, er, um, erp…” Alex said. “No! My other Pokémon is, er, um, Grovyle!” he said, pointing at her. Grovyle’s eyes widened.
“Fine then, get her on the dance floor.”
“Grovyle! Get on the dance floor and use, um, whatever you can use!”
“What? I don’t battle; it’s not my thing,” she said, playing with her paws.
“Please???”
“No.”
“PLEASE??”
“I said no!”
“PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-“
“ALRIGHT I’LL BATTLE! JUST SHUT UP ALREADY!!”
“Okay. Go Grovyle! Use um, Razor Leaf?” Alex commanded.
“Why don’t you just let me battle?” she said, readying her Leaf Blade. She then charged at the rock, who managed to gasp before losing consciousness.
“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Oh well, I still have Sudowoodo. Go!” he said, releasing the tree-like Pokémon. Before it could attack, Grovyle hit it with another Leaf Blade. The Sudowoodo seemed to have fainted, but stood up, shaking.
“Yeah! Thank Arceus for Sturdy! Now use Mimic and-“ He was cut off as a Magikarp hit him in the head. It spit a piece of paper out at him, and he read it.
Arceus has a message for you; QUIT SAYING HER NAME!! She is too busy to punish people because she is away in Johto and is traveling with a cowboy, a weirdo with red eyes, and another kid. Oh, by the way, this is Arceus’s best friend; THE UNIVERSE!
After reading the message, he passed out, and Sudowoodo mimicked him.
“YEAH! I BEAT B ROCK!!! THANK YOU GROVYLE!!” he shouted.
“Sure, whatever.” Miror and Mirakle rushed over to B Rock and gasped.
“OH MAH BROTHER FROM THE SAME MOTHER!! B ROCK, SPEAK TO ME!!” Miror B shouted.
“I’m fine, Miror; I just became one of the official Magikarp haters, that’s all.”
“Oh thank the good LORD that I don’t have to only have one brother now!” Miror shouted.
“Just give the kid his badge, Miror,” B Rock said, holding his head and glaring at the lifeless fish a few feet away.
“O-kaay do-kaaay!” he said, running to go and get a badge from the storage room. He came back out a little later. “From me and both my brothers, we give you this B badge.”
“Yeah! Wait, what does the ‘B’ stand for?”
“It stands for ‘Breakdancing’, which is our family name.”
“Ohmigosh. So you mean that B Rock is related to Miror and Mirakle B?!” Alex exclaimed.
“Oh-ho-ho yesiree, he is indeed! Now, my little brother Mirakle needs a good place to train his lil’ ol’ Lotad. Can he come with you on your journey?” Miror asked.
“Uh, sure, why not,” Dizzy answered. Grovyle piped up.
“Once again, thanks for asking about my opinion on the matter.”
“You’re welcome.” The now group of four exited the gym and were heading to the Pokémon Center, when they saw some police cars parked in front of the Museum. There was a great commotion going on.
“Let’s go check it out!” Dizzy said. They all nodded and ran off in the direction of the museum, unsure of what was awaiting them.

“I’m so glad we ditched those idiots when they went into that disco fiasco. They practically did our job of finding this place for us!” a pink winged unicorn said.
“Yeah, you got that right, Celestia!” a purple unicorn with wings replied.
“Of course I do Luna; I’m always right! Now let’s raid this place before those- Oh sh*t, those d*mn police are coming!” The largest pink one said. “RUN LIKE H*LL!!!”
