"Mom, where is dad?" I asked walking through the door with my trusty partner Eevee. I looked through the house and I saw pictures of Max and me when we were younger. In another picture, I saw when I first got Torchic. I smiled and touched the photo then continued walking into the house. I watched as Eevee scampered into the kitchen and I saw my mom with the TV on watching a Pokémon contest. I smiled and then looked at my mom again. "Where's dad at?"

"The gym. He would still like you to try and get your badges so you could take over for him." My mom smiled. "I think that you could get a nice guy and he could take over…"

I smiled at my mom and shrugged my shoulders at her. "Why not Max?"

"You know he has his eyes set on being a breeder."

I nodded my head. "I'm going to see dad." I gave my mom a hug and turned to look at the TV once more and then walked out the door to find my father. As I walked out the door a cool breeze hit me. I felt Eevee jump on my shoulder. I looked at her and smiled. I grabbed her and held her in my arms. I rubbed her head and continued walking. On my way to my father's gym, I saw a Pikachu walking towards me and it whimpered. Eevee started to growl at him. She jumped down from my arms and started to make her shadow ball until I yelled.

"EEVEE!"

She stopped and looked at me. The frightened Pikachu scampered over to me and hugged my leg. He looked to my Eevee and stuck his tongue out at her. Eevee growled at him again and then looked to me. I picked up Pikachu. "What are you doing here?"

"Pikachu!"

"I'm sorry. I can't understand you, but I do know someone who can." I smiled at the mouse as I continued walking towards the gym. He looked around me and then had a glum face. "What's wrong?" I asked the Pokémon but shook my head. The Pikachu looked at me then smiled. "Oh my name is May." The Pokémon smiled and I looked to see the gym a few feet away. I smiled and ran to the door before walking in and seeing my father battling another challenger.

"Slakoth and Norman are the winners!" The ref announced. My father walked to the center of the arena and held his hand out to the challenger.

"You did a great job!" My father said and then smiled at the challenger. He waved to him as he left and then looked to me. "Did you catch that Pikachu?"

I shook my head. "He came up to me whimpering. Eevee tried to hit him with a shadow ball but I stopped her… He has been talking but I can't understand him. I thought maybe you could understand him and find out if he was wild or if he had a trainer…"

My father smiled. "Let me see him." I handed the Pikachu to my dad and he looked at him. "My name is Norman. I see. So you lost your trainer? Oh! And you want him to stop?" My father got a smile on his face. He took a 5 dollar bill out of his pocket and handed it to the Pokémon. I looked at him shocked. "Bring him back here. I think I can help him."
