Serena continued her journey onto Rustburo City to participate in her first contest. Unfortunately for her, she had riding on her bike aimlessly in Petalburg Forest trying to find a way out with her trusty Pokenav.
"Where is the exit around this forest? This pokenav is just leading me around in circles." she complained.
"Mudkip." he muttered.
She pressed the breaks on her bike as she heard her stomach growl. She sweat dropped and scratched the back of her neck sheepishly.
"Maybe we should take a break." Mudkip nodded and ran over to the grassy area and sat down. Serena sat down beside him and took off her bag that was hanging on her shoulder.
She opened it up and took out some food for Mudkip and a small bento box for herself to eat. She licked her lips as she looked at the delicious lunch packed by her mom.
"Thank you mom!" She took out a sandwich from the lunchbox and took a bite.
"Nobody can beat mom's home cookin'!"
Mudkip dug into his pokefood with delight as Serena munched on her food. She laid her back on a tree as she finished eating and closed her eyes.
'I wonder how were gonna get out of this forest...' Serena thought to herself.
"Kip." She opened her eyes and looked at Mudkip.
"Something wrong?" she noticed Mudkip looking up at the tree branch above his head. She saw a small blue bird sitting on the tree branch comfortably.
"What pokemon is that?" She quickly took out her pokedex from her bag and put it in front of the pokemon.
'Swablu, the bird pokemon. It constantly grooms its cotton-like wings. It takes a shower to clean itself if it becomes dirty.'
"Mudkip, we gotta catch that Swablu! It'll be my first catch, and not to mention, it could help us get out of here!"
"Mudkip!" he said determined.
"Okay Mudkip, use your water gun!" He sprayed a powerful amount of water from its mouth and drenched the Swablu causing it to fall out the trees.
"Blu..."
It shook off the water from its wings and flew up into the air. Its wings started to glow and flew towards Mudkip at high speed.
"Quick Mudkip, evade the Aerial Ace!" Mudkip did as he was told and managed to dodge the attack. Swablu lost control and flew right into Serena's bike completely destroying it.
"MY BIKE!!" She glared at the Swablu.
"I'm definitely gonna have to catch you now after what you did to my bike! Finish it off with Mud-slap!"
Mudkip spits mud right in Swablu's face and landed a few feet ahead. She quickly took out a pokeball from her pocket and pressed the button to make it larger.
"Here goes, pokeball go!"
She tossed the pokeball at Swablu before it disappeared in a flash of red light. The ball fell to the ground and wiggled a few times before making a 'click' sound. Serena smiled and picked up the ball and held it in her hand.
"Alright, I caught my first pokemon!" "Mudkip-Mud!" She released Swablu and gave it a warm smile.
She took out a cloth and wiped the mud off its face and sprayed her with a little potion to make her feel better.
"Feel any better Swablu?"
"Swablu!" It flapped its wings joyfully before nodding.
"That's great; could you lead me out of this forest?"
"I'm headed towards Rustburo City." Swablu nodded before taking off into the air. Serena put her bag right on her shoulder before returning Mudkip to his pokeball and following her Swablu.
'Rustburo City here I come!
