Josh still had 1000 poke left. As he searched for a place to spend the rest of it, he came across a shop called Amanda's Threads. He went inside, and was immediately greeted by an Altaira.
"Hi there! Welcome to Amanda's Threads." she said. "I've got just the thing for a Psychic-type like you."
She disappeared for a moment, and came back with a hat that was covered in dirt and dust. "This should keep those Electric-types at bay. It could be yours for the price of 3000 poke."
"I don't have that much. Do you have anything cheaper?"
"Oh, of course I do! Come this way, I think I've got something that would suit you."
Josh and Matt followed her to the other end of the store, where she showed them a shelf with all kinds of scarves. "Now, these may look like normal scarves, but they do much more than make you look good." She picked up a purple one, handing it to Josh. "This one here will raise your Special Attack. It'll definitely come in handy."
Right after putting the scarf on, Josh felt a surge of power rush through him. "Alright, I'll take it." Josh said, giving her 500 poke.

Him and Matt were wandering around town yet again. They stumbled upon a building that appeared to be a dojo of some sort. A Garchomp approached them as they walked inside He was covered in scars, making him look pretty intimidating. "Hello there." he said. "Are you here to train?"
"Umm...yeah, I guess." Josh said. He took out 500 poke, handing it to the Garchomp.
He trained Confusion for a while, and by the time they cam out, he could tell it had become more powerful.

As they started wandering around the city again, they ran into Hex and Anthony. It seemed like Anthony had bought a new helmet. "Hey guys." Josh said. "Look what I got." He pulled out the Thunderbolt TM he bought from Danny's shop. "I didn't use it yet because I wanted to show you guys."
