Red the Conqueror 18

Celadon was a much greener place than expected... and no, not because of the greenery around. The city was big. It was the second biggest city in Kanto, second only to Saffron, but it boasted the biggest entertainment district in the entire region, in fact, the entertainment district of Celadon alone was bigger than all of Red's hometown, Pallet Town.

It also had a rather extensive adult entertainment industry, which had all kinds of establishments, from the simpler gambling dens and betting shops to large casinos and luxurious parlors, and everything in between. There were arcades with many a famous game, there was even a minigolf course.

But of course, perhaps the most famous, or infamous, part of the adult entertainment Celadon had to offer was its almost unique stance on certain kinds of work that most other cities in the region frowned rather heavily upon. Unlike in most of the rest of Kanto, which had regulations so draconian it was nearly impossible to develop it, in Celadon, sex work was a rather thriving industry, and nowhere was it more exemplified than right in front of the Red Bell, the most well known and most reputable of establishments that dealt with this sort of work.

It was actually a rather bizarre building, themed after a Victreebel, it was a four story tall building with rounded edges and decorative leaves along its sides, with a visible big pink "lip" around its top edge and painted on eyes. It was surrounded by completely normal buildings, which just made its existence even more bizarre, but far be it from Red and Blue to question architectural sensibilities.

Especially when they were busy dealing with the employee at the front, who was having trouble believing their IDs. 

"Red I would've understood, but me?" Blue asked, scandalized. "Look at these!" she said, pointing at her date of birth on her ID. "You see this don't you?" she asked, pointing at the stamp of the Indigo Plateau's authorities on her license. 

Red looked at her flatly.

"Oh don't give me that you know I don't mean it that way!" Blue said, shaking her head. "I've said you look taller recently didn't I?" she spoke hastily.

Red huffed, rubbing the bridge of his nose.

"Look lady, you know how often we get girls like you trying to get into places like this?" the employee at the front, a boy who didn't look a day older than Blue herself, maybe even younger thanks to his excellent skin care that left him with a soft and babyish looking face, stated plainly. "Can you just give me your ID so I can put it through the system?" he said, finally. "It'll only take a minute."

"Fine," Blue said, pouting, but ultimately passing the employee her ID. The boy took it and nodded thankfully, then put it on some sort of card reader device and began tapping on his computer, meanwhile, Blue turned to Red. "Are you sure about this?" she asked. "I mean we can afford it but, it's more expensive than other places we've stayed at..."

Red nodded, then he pulled out the brochure they'd been given when they entered Celadon, and then pointed at where it said that the Red Bell had the most beautiful and wonderful girls in all of Kanto.

"Okay, that's fair," Blue admitted, "I guess checking out the claim's the least we can do in this sort of situation. You done over there?"

"That'll be just a few- oh, it's done. No problems pop up, either you're clean or you've not been caught," the employee said, pulling the ID card out of the reader and passing it back to Blue, who stowed it back into place in her bag and crossed her arms. "Right, thank you for your understanding, you two may go in now."

"Finally," Blue said, rolling her eyes. "Shall we?" she asked, offering Red her arm.

Red took said arm and nodded, then the two began to walk in step, passing the opaque glass doors which slid open automatically to welcome them in, the bright lights from within making it impossible to peer inside until they passed the threshold into the building itself. The inside was... much less bizarre than the outside, that was the first thing that struck them.

The second was that there was actually a large number of people inside already, though a large number of those people were in fact beautiful women in varying states of dress. Many wore swimsuits or lingerie, some wore themed costumes, especially exotic costumes based on Pokémon from other regions. 

There was also a distinctly sweet smell, a more toned down version of the smell the pokémon Move produced, seemed like it was tuned more for attracting humans than for attracting or lowering the guard of Pokémon. The walls were red, which fit the name, and there was a bit of a jungle-theme to the decoration, just enough to remind you this was in Celadon, a town presided over by the Grass type Gym Leader of Kanto.

To either side from the entrance there were bars, to the right was a bar that served drinks and food and had both tables and, well, the bar proper as a seating area. There were many couples and some groups, composed both of people dressed normally, and many people in sexy get-ups. 

"Woah, everyone here's so sexy," Blue muttered, looking not just at the women, but the men as well, many good looking people seemed to gather here, though of course there was also an even larger number of clients that didn't quite look as good as the, ah, talent working so to speak. She could scarcely focus on anything but the various beautiful people moving about.

Red tugged her along as they headed to the bar opposite the food and drinks bar, the one that had exclusively scantily clad women and men, many of whom were standing as if waiting for someone to approach them. There was also a woman dressed in a very tight looking suit behind the counter, attending to a pair of men. After a few moments waiting behind those two men, Red and Blue saw the woman wave over one of the waiting men, this one heavier set and dressed not unlike the famous Snorlax, and then the trio went to the far back and right of the lobby, where there was a set of stairs that no doubt lead to the private rooms.

Red looked at Blue.

Blue caught his look, and nodded. She stepped ahead. "Hello!"

"Hi there miss, mister," the woman said, smiling brightly. "Welcome to the Red Bell. Are you new?"

"We are," Blue confirmed, gesturing at Red.

"Oh! That is quite nice! Please accept a free drink on us, as a courtesy for the new guests," the woman said. "We will have it sent to your room, as I believe you've come to me with an idea of what this corner's for."

Blue looked at Red, who gave her a thumbs up and nodded, then Blue turned back.

"Yeah, I guess so," Blue replied with a smile, raising her hand to her hat and steadying it as she did.

"So you're looking for company then... As a first time client, we're currently running a promotional offer that will give you a discount," she said, "if you hire this program," she added. "You guys are trainers, correct?"

"Do we look like it?"

"You look like you're strong trainers!" the woman said, her chest bouncing a little as she stood up a little straighter. "If you combine your first time with the trainer discount we offer," she said, pulling something from under the bar, a catalogue which she opened, "these are the girls I'd recommend," she spoke. "Oh- unless you would prefer-"

"No, girls are fine," Blue said. "Right Red?"

Red nodded. 

"Red agrees," Blue said, as she turned back to the besuited woman. "Oh! They're all very good!" the young woman said, her eyes almost twinkling. "Come on Red, come help me choose!"

The lad stepped forward and leaned on the counter for a moment. 

"Take your time," the attendant said, her smile never wavering. "Any one of them is a good choice, we're firm on our commitment for the best service!"

"They're all so beautiful, I can't choose!" Blue said.

Red nodded. They were all good looking indeed, though his face was not as perverted as Blue's as he looked over the women that were made a available through the service. In fact, he actually seemed like he was having trouble choosing for the opposite reason. He hummed, leafing through the catalogue with Blue, but it just wasn't clicking.

Blue even pointed out a few stunningly beautiful women, but Red just wasn't caught.

"Oh, a connoisseur then?"

The woman in the suit seemed amused.

"Would you mind if I made my own suggestion?" she spoke. "I think I know what you're looking for, young man," the woman said. "You've got a taste for only the finest I see, I can understand it, I enjoy a nice and fine wine with my meals every once in a while," she said.

"Oh? I guess it's fine with me?" Blue said. "Honestly everyone is so good looking that I'd be okay with anyone of the catalogue!"

Red nodded as well, letting go of the catalogue and looking instead to the worker.

"Well, we don't usually offer this particular girl for new timers but she does have a predilection towards trainers, and you two look strong," the saleswoman said, taking the catalogue, closing it, and stuffing it back under the bar. She then smiled and looked at the two of them for a good few seconds and then turned to the many people around them, spotting what she wanted after a few moments. "Oi! Miss E!" she called, waving her hand, her strong, deep yet distinctly feminine voice easily audible over the music.

'Miss E' happened to be a charming young woman, with inky black straight hair cut just over her shoulders, holding it in place with a headband, and a green bikini that exposed her smooth and lovely skin, a pale pink that almost glowed in the dim lighting of the room. She had a demure air to her, and her beauty almost radiated. Her bikini looked simple, but it was perfectly framing her body, her nicely thick thighs, her slim physique and the curves of her body...

She was almost unreal in some ways, in how pretty she was, at least, to be seen in such an establishment, her beauty had a pure air to it that didn't quite match the atmosphere.

Or maybe in some ways, she was even elevated by her surroundings.

She smiled and covered her face with her hand. "Oh my. It's not often I get called like that!" she said with a giggle. "You must be the clients that requested for me," she spoke, bowing slightly. "You may call me Miss E."

"Oh! You're- yeah, this is perfect, don't you think so?" Blue asked, turning to Red.

The young man looked Miss E up and down, stroking his chin, before giving a big thumbs up and turning back to the working saleswoman.

The saleswoman in turn addressed Miss E. "So? What'll it be, Miss E?" she asked. "Do these two fit the bill for you?"

Blue blinked in surprise and opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted with a giggle from Miss E.

"Ah, right - I didn't tell you. Miss E chooses her clients," she said. "In that sense, we're recommending you to her, rather than the other way around."

"Neat," Blue said, though she didn't let her actual feelings show.

Red raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Hm... you guys look strong. Very strong," she said, looking them up and down. "Alright, shall I take care of you for tonight?" she asked. "I think we can have a good time together."

"Oh? Miss E, are you saying what I think you're saying?" asked the saleswoman.

Miss E smiled and nodded, fanning herself with her hand. "Ah, I'm getting excited. I'll take care of these two, no, please allow me to take care of these two," she said. "I really can't wait to see it... this strength I'm feeling, surely you can put it to use?"

"Oh me oh my, I've never seen Miss E this excited!" the saleswoman said. "I was right about you two, then please - I'll grant you our best room for the night," she said, pulling a keycard from under the bar and offering it to Blue, who took it and looked at it. It was black, with golden letters that read VIP and golden borders, as well as smaller text that read ~Miss E~ under the VIP.

"Shiny," Blue muttered as she looked at it.

"Wonderful. Shall we head up, my dearest customers?" asked the elegant woman of the night, gesturing towards the stairs that lead up. "I can't wait to start our night together... we're going to have quite a lot of fun," she said. Her smile had become quite challenging. "Please, follow me..."

It was just about time to head up indeed. 

Together, the trio took to the stairs, heading for the highest floor, and after passing the VIP suites, they reached the penthouse suite. 

"Here we are," Miss E spoke, gesturing to the keycard reader on the side of a set of black double doors with gold detailing, the sole room in the uppermost floor. "Place your card here," she instructed.

Blue did as she said, and the doors swung open on their own, revealing...

Not a luxurious bedroom, but instead, a painted arena.

Miss E stepped forward past the doors. At the other end there was a table with several pokéballs set on it, and she approached it, swinging her hips. She picked up one and turned to Red and Blue, who looked at her in confusion.

"I should introduce myself," Miss E said, bowing slightly. "You see, I am Erika, Celadon City's Gym Leader. This is just something I do for fun. I own this establishment," she spoke, "and the condition for laying with me is having the Rainbow Badge," she spoke. "You two look strong," she said. "If you can beat me here and earn my badge, then I'll waive the fees for tonight and you can stay in my private suite free of charge. Of course, I'll also entrust my body to the two of you as part of your reward," she said. "Will you take my challenge?"

The two trainers looked at each other.

Then they each said "okay", and took one pokéball out each, tossing them forward.

Their two newest team members came out, the unimaginably powerful Psychic Dragons. Each of them had the dragon that matched their name, Red sending out Latias, Blue sending out Latios. 

The two had already settled into their role... their high intelligence and psychic capabilities had allowed a degree of communication that allowed them to understand their position, and more importantly, the two dragons were extremely happy to belong to such close trainers. 

At this time, Erika's eyes became a bit wider.

"I... might have severely underestimated the situation," she said, putting the pokéball she was holding before back on the table, and instead, grabbing the one furthest from the entrance. "Well," she said, a smile on her face.

Red and Blue hadn't had much time to truly train their new partners... but they'd had just about enough to have the dragons chew through enough of Erika's pokémon that by the time Latias and Latios were down for the count, Erika was on her last legs and Red & Blue still had two pokemon to go each. 

The bout was really impressive in its short length and simplicity, yet somehow, Erika didn't seem the least bit dejected when she conceded. If anything... she looked very excited.

She then gestured behind her, the entrance to her private chambers.

It was time for the real battle.
