Forretress of Solitude (Japanese: VS フォレトス VS Foretos), titled VS Forretress in the Chuang Yi translation, is the 115th chapter of the Pokémon Adventures manga, and the 25th chapter of the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc.
Plot
Yellow and Daisy Oak are trying to reason with Red, saying that there is no way that he can recover by tomorrow. Red argues, saying that he can't back down, as tomorrow is his aptitude test for becoming the Viridian Gym Leader. He quickly ushers his Pokémon away for more training, leaving Yellow and Daisy speechless. Later, Red is on the video phone with Bill, talking about how "tomorrow's the day". Red then gets a knock at the door, revealing Brock and Misty with their aptitude test videos and an instruction manual. Red thanks them as Brock asks if he is ready. Red replies by showing off his muscles, and Brock and Misty leave. That night, Red lays awake in bed, thinking about the next day. He worries about his wrists, and thinks that he'll need a plan, if the numbness does kick in during the test.
The next day, Red stands in the stadium, with all six of his Pokémon out, and the crowd cheering. The announcer explains the rules briefly, then announces the start of the test. Red's first opponent is a Pineco, which Saur swiftly knocks out, as well as its next two opponents, a Forretress and another Pineco. However, the fourth opponent, another Forretress, resorts to its Spikes and is putting up a fair fight against Saur. Red commands Saur to use Sweet Scent, then promptly switches it out for Snor, whom is commanded to use Belly Drum. As the crowd wonders what Red is doing, Snor's Belly Drum causes the Spikes to rebound and are sent back to Forretress, as well as a Mega Punch. Because of Saur's Sweet Scent, Forretress's movements were slowed down, which helped Red knock it out.
Red's next opponent is an Azumarill, who promptly uses Whirlpool, surrounding Red and Snor. As Red desperately tries to think of a solution, his numbness, aggravated by the water, starts to kick in. Yellow and Daisy notice that something is wrong. The Whirlpool subsides, and Snor quickly uses Mega Kick, knocking Azumarill out. Red's last opponent is a Porygon2, and he sends out his Espeon, Vee. Red and Vee are seen briefly in Porygon2's field of vision as it targets them and fires a Zap Cannon, reducing Vee's HP to below half. However, Red remains confident, as he commands Vee to use Morning Sun, followed by Psychic. This knocks Porygon2 out, and thus Red wins the test and gains the position of Viridian Gym Leader.
However, as he is being congratulated, he declines the position. He says that throughout the match, he realized that he was still not good enough to be a Gym Leader. This saddens the citizens of Viridian City, as they wonder who their new Leader will be. Meanwhile, Blue is seen in the shadows with his Scizor.
