Iki town was fairly small compared to Misthallery with only 4 buildings it was a very nice town. The kahuna of Melemele was an older man with white hair who wore white shorts, sandals, a blue tee shirt and a yellow jacket. The kahuna introduced himself as Hala and that, since they were here we should partake in the island challenge whilst they were in the region. He proceeded to offer Harry and I a starter pokémon of the region each. Since Harry already had Incineroar and Decidueye, he went with a Popplio in order to get a Primarina. I, on the other hand, asked if I could have a different pokémon since Harry and I were working together to have one of every Pokémon, in return I got a Grubbin to train into a powerful Vikavolt.
Kukui handed the pair of them a rotom dex and an ordinary Pokédex for their journey and wished them well. Headed off for Alola's route 1 Harry remembered something, "Er… Jack, shouldn't we get some more pokéballs?"
"Don't worry Harry, I bought enough to cover this route, C'mon, get hunting."
In that hour, they managed to find and catch an alolan forme rattata, a pikipek and a rockruff.
Once we had caught the pokemon of the first route we returned to Iki town where we were greeted by the kahuna who asked us to accompany him to a place called the ruins of conflict to receive some sparkling stones to be made into Z-rings for our island challenge. As we headed up Mahalo trail Harry looked around nervously, as if he expected a powerful pokemon to leap out and attack us. "Harry, calm down, nothing will attack us here. You heard Hala say that this is a sacred place and that there are no wild pokémon of any sort here." My words made him appear visibly calmer as he seemed to regain some of his confidence.
There were, however, three wild pokémon at the end of the trail though, and they appeared to be attacking a fourth, completely different pokémon, and a girl, not much older than us stood at the end of a fairly rickety bridge. As we approached, she turned to us and, seeing the kahuna, begged for us to help 'Nebby'. With a nod from Harry, we moved onto the bridge to confront the attacking Spearow. "Do you want the catch or shall I do it?" Harry asked me when the Spearow noticed us.
"I'll take it," releasing Shaymin in its land forme, Spearow attacked with a peck to immobilise Shaymin as quickly as possible. "Shaymin get out of there and follow up on its attack with magical leaf." Being faster, Shaymin easily dodged the peck and the magical leaf hit the Spearow almost causing it to want to run but not quite. Following up with a pokéball I waited for the important part of the capture. One rock…two rocks…three rocks…click. "And that is how you catch a Spearow!" Harry called.
We progressed along the bridge that looks like it could have done with some repairs done to it. In the middle, we reached the other two Spearow and 'Nebby'. Harry decided to deal with the Spearow whilst I try to coax 'Nebby' into following us. However, 'Nebby' had other ideas which involved getting away from the Spearow in the quickest way possible, down. Destroying the bridge I knew that we were done for so I grabbed 'Nebby' to keep it as safe as possible when we hit the water I might be able to keep it alive.
What we didn't know was that the pokémon that Hala was going to take us to the shrine for was watching and came to catch me. Dropping me off back at the top of the ravine (Harry was at the end of the bridge keeping the Spearow busy) it gave me two sparkling stones, one black and one silver. Tossing Harry the silver one I gave the black one a closer inspection. "Hala, what does this symbol represent?" I asked.
"That symbol is the mark of what we call 'Z-power', Jack. With these stones, I can make Z-rings and Z-power rings neither more powerful than the other, just Z-power rings are black and Z-rings are silver. Come back to Iki town tonight and I will give them to you at our festival." Leaving Hala with our Sparkling stones we decided to go and have a look around Hau'oli city.
A/N Please leave me ideas for Harry's team as well as pokemon for the Hogwarts students because I will need those. Thx.
