"Congratulations, White." Skyla said to me, handing me my beautiful Jet Badge. "This is proof you beat me."

I took the Jet Badge and put in my badge case, my Swanna standing next to me as she anxiously awaited to leave. "Thank you Skyla."

"No, thank you White." Skyla replied, "For the first time in a while, me and my Pokemon could fight with our true strength. I really hope that you become the Champion! And then, maybe, we could battle again!"

I nodded my head. "Once I become Champion Skyla, I'll come and battle with you again!"

Skyla nodded her head and took a look at my Swanna. "Also, I'd like to comment on your Swanna."

I perked my head to the side and me and Swanna looked at each other for a moment before looking back at the Gym Leader. "What about her?"

Skyla smiled. "Your Swanna seems really happy to be with you. She trusts you. And she wants to become stronger. To stick by your side."

Swanna let out a cry and spread her wings, smiling at me and the Gym Leader. I petted the White Bird Pokemon. She cried at me once again, still smiling as I continued to pet her white head.

Skyla smiled again. "See? She's really happy to have a trainer like you! You take good care of her now! And your other Pokemon too!"

"I will. Don't you worry. Serperior, Litwick, and Vanillish...I'll take good care of them too."

Skyla smiled at me once more. She waved to me as I walked out of the Gym, Swanna next to my side.
