Familiar welcome

A wild Volbeat jumped at me as soon as I entered the familiar tall grass. The mere difference in level between it and my Kirlia would be enough to finish the battle but my pokémon still made sure there was no doubt about it and attacked it with “confusion”, not once but twice. The wild…

Retrace and relocate

I had a problem now, there was no place for me to train on this beach, the only place left that I knew of and that would provide any valuable training was one where I had been before, and so I made my way to the center at Mauville, to recover and get ready. From…

A stroke of fins

The fisherman released his pokémon, opening the pokéball towards the nearby water. A newcomer with several shdes of blue and pink spots. This pokémon was beautiful, I didn’t need the pokénav to tell me that but it did identified this one as a Finneon. Kirlia was my chosen one on this battle and she did…

Fish gear

Earlier, I had not seen another living person on that beachm besides the young woman whom had given me the little Totodile, but now, now they seemed to be popping up everywhere. The musician I had defeated was not the only new face, there was another, larger man donned in red clothing, holding a long…

Delayed song

My opponent didn’t let the defeat break his spirit, he just started to hum some melody. – It seems as my music still needs improvement. When I compose better emlodies you have to come listen, okay? He smiled and touched his pokénav to mine, exchanging contacts. – I’m Dalton and you will hear of me,…

Kirlia goes again

My opponent reached for another pokéball and I switched out Trapinch for Kirlia, se deserved another attempt at battle and this time the match-up might just be better. The small red and white ball gave way to a large, purple, smoke covered pokémon, a Koffing. The pokénav identified it as an extremely toxic, floating, poison…

Done in a pinch

Trapinch entered the battlefield with energy to spare and wasted no time because the enemy was there. With her pace strong and steady, she gathered her full might and it wouldn’t be long before she was ready, before she could finish the fight. The attack was chosen, the target was set, “Bulldoze” would be used…

Seed of metal

There was a man standing by the shoreline, his blonde hair spiked in ways that seemed unlikely and he had an unusual amount of energy about him. He rushed over to me as soon as he saw me, pulled out a microphone and practically screamed in my ear. – Let my melody rock your soul!…

Gift by the water

I went back to the lake, in search of the young woman that offered me a pokémon. She was found easily enough, slowly walking in ankle deep water. My intention was to approach her but she moved first, heading towards me as soon as she saw me. – Water is lovely isn’t it? You still…

Room and Recovery

I was back in Mauville before I knew it, not that I really wanted to but it was the closest point where I could heal my pokémon, something I did as fast as humanly possible. My pokémon regained their health at the hands of the local nurse Joy and I proceeded to make room for…

Short Report

My feet took me away from the soothing lake views and back up the hill, an uneventful walk, considering I had recently beaten every trainer on my way down. The pokénav sounded off, ringing loudly, begging for attention. A name on the screen identified the caller as Edwin… whoever that was. I had no idea…

Direction

I had reached another dead end, there was no place for me to go, no way I could cross the mass of water before me by myself. Not without a pokémon capable of using “Surf” and definitely not without the move itself, one I had not yet learned. There were no training spots and no…
