Keep up the good fight

The recovery was fast, no surprise there. As always, I spent as little as possible inside the structure, mostly gazing at the beautiful nurse attending to the health of every pokémon. I made no change to my roster and simply rearranged it, putting roggenrola in the forefront, especially considering that he was the one that…

Displacement

The sun was just about to set, or was it rising? I had been training for so long that my sense of time was completely off and the mood inside the center was of no help, both the meals and the people present offered no evidence.

Time to replenish

Everyone on my roster was down for the count which could only mean it was time to head for the nearest center and recover my pokémon. Kirlia was still capable of battling with some of her other moves but her two main attacks were completely depleted and there was no other pokémon to take her…

Last legs

The previous battle had exhausted her stamina fully in regard to “Confusion” and her other fallback, “Magical Leaf” wasn’t doing much better, with only one charge remaining. A wild mienfoo made its way outside the tall grass and charged through the coloured wall my pokémon created in response. Massive damage was inflicted but the wild…

Still kicking

Kirlia was still angry by the time a new, wild pokémon appeared. It was an Illumise that made itself known and attempted a sneak attack, like others had tried and also failed, like many others. My pokémon might have been down toher last legs when concerning stamina but she was not a push-over. Provoked by…

Surprise… not

Kirlia had proven her worth more times than I could count and her stamina was obviously near its limit. The heaving breath and the energy spent in maintaining a focused mind was clearly taxing. A wild sneasel approached and attempted a surprise attack but was met with a wall of colour and damage as my…

Anger

Kirlia was feeling pretty confident, sure of herself, powerful. Her mood was so positive that she twirled a few times, a short celebration of her well earned victories. My pokémon did not see the enemy approaching and illumise was able to sneak in an attack, dealing little damage to my ally and stopping her celebratory…

Sudden confusion

The slow, steady footsteps of a mienfoo could be heard through the tall grass as the wild pokémon made its way to the arena. Kirlia did not give it time to prepare and struck the unsuspecting pokémom with a full-force “Confusion” attack. The wild pokémon was defeated in a single hit.

Leaves abound

The colored leaves were only now falling but my pokémon would not let them reach the ground, they started rising instead, swirling in a small tornado. Kirlia had another attack of “Magical leaf” prepared but I saw no target. My ally looked to her right and the leaves followed the firm gaze, hitting something at…

One more step

The pokédex sounded off as Kirlia looked very pleased with herself. She was one level away from the thirtieth mark and being ready for the next challenge.

The usual combo

Kirlia had not returned to her pokéball and was clearly eager for more action. A wild illumise entered the arena and head straight towards us, as if issuing a challenge. My pokémon did not wait for it to make the first move and struck it with “Confusion” for massive damage, though with some repercussions. The…

Critical gap

As expected, the pokémon pattern continued, with illumise being followed by a wild sneasel which did not last long at all. Kirlia was more than ready for a new pokémon to appear and hit it with “Magical leaf”. The swarm impacted with such force that the wild lifeless pokémon was thrown back a few meters…
