I was walking back to my cabin near Log Bay Forest. The rain was heavy and the air was too damn thick to breath in. I wasn't in a good mood after a man tried to arrest me with a candy cane earlier today. He thought it was a crime to toss a coin in a fountain.
Along the muddy path to my Cabin, I heard a loud strike of Thunder, and the air around me froze for a split second, the air flashing violently. A tree nearby was struck by lightening and fell with a heavy crash. There was a loud scream following the crash. I panicked, thinking, "What the hell"?
I rushed towards the source of the painful cries, to find a Kirlia caught on the roots of the tree that was struck by lightening.
"Holy crap!" I gasped, several roots had pierced through its ankle. Fire was slowly spreading towards the Kirlia. Before attempting to get the roots out, I tried calming it down.
"It's okay, I'm gonna help you," I said, terrified. The fire was growing closer.
"Now, I'm gonna see if I can pull you out okay"? The Pokemon didn't respond at first. It seemed scared, but slightly nodded its head for approval.
Gently, I grasped its foot and leg to closely examine the wounds. The roots were in pretty deep, it would definitely feel excruciating pain if I attempted to move it. Damn, I thought. Kirlia looked more frightened about the situation.
"Okay, everything is going to be fine," I stated," But, if I try to move your ankle, your are going to feel too much pain and will pass out. Do you know how to Teleport"? Kirlia whimpered, but nodded a yes. The fire was an arm-stretch away from me, blazing with intense heat.
"Good, now if you Teleport now, you won't be able to survive in the forest with your current condition. I have a cabin nearby where I can help heal you. It's next to the lake on the riverside." The fire was flailing next to my arm. I moved my body against the fire to give the Kirlia some time to escape. My blue jacket started to burn a hole on the center. Kirlia started glowing, then flickered away into the thick air.

Kirlia was able to make it back to my cabin yesterday. The plan had worked, and by it Teleporting, the roots were no longer dug into its ankle. However, it was still bleeding. I tore a piece of my black T-Shirt off and smothered the wounds to stop the bleeding. I ran to my bathroom and raided the medicine cabinet. I was able to heal it, but even a Hyper Potion couldn't restore it complete;y. I changed its bandages with some clean-unused ones last night in hopes of it preventing any infections. Kirlia passed out from exhaustion, but was in a healthier condition.
I just made some eggs and baked potatoes for brunch- a Hoenn home favorite. The scent of food had woken Kirlia up. It wiped its eye and yawned in a cute and elegant fashion. It sat itself up from the futon couch, then winced from the wounds.
"Careful now," I said," You might be better than you were yesterday, but that ankle won't be able to get you anywhere for a few days".
Thank you for your kindness, a voice in my head answered. It was a teen female voice. I panicked for a few seconds, forgetting that Kirlia is a Psychic-Type Pokemon.
"You're...uh... welcome. Now why don't we eat something to regain our strength?" I cheerfully replied.
Kirlia let out a joyful cry. I set the food on the wooden table while I gently carried Kirlia to her seat.
It seemed to know hot to use silverware, so it must've had an Owner or a Trainer at one point...
