chapter 4
Roark loved to dig for fossils like his dad. Today he found something. "Dad look what I found," Roark said. He showed it to his father.
"Roark this is Cranidos fossil," Byron said.
"Wow I've seen pictures of Cranidos I think it's cool I wish I could have one. I hope to have one a fossil Pokemon all my own like your Bastiodon dad," Roark said.
Byron thought that would be a good idea. He knew Roark's birthday was coming up so he decided to have the fossil revived. True fossils have been revived before but now they had a new fossil restoration machine. He thought it would be a good idea to use it on Cranidos first.
Byron took the fossil to the museum and told them this fossil Pokemon was going to be a birthday present for his son. The fossil was revived. Byron got it in a pokeball then let it out. Then he tied a big bow around it's neck.
Roark woke up on his birthday. He went down stairs to have breakfast. His mom gave him pancakes. Then at lunch his mom placed the cake in front of him. "Make a wish!" she said.
Roark knew what he wanted to wish for, he wished for a Cranidos. Then Byron left the room and came back with something. Roark saw saw Cranidos with a big red bow tied around it's neck. "That's just what I wished for," Lion-o said.
"This is my birthday present to you, I revived it from the fossil you found. You said you wanted one so I had revived for your birthday with the new improved fossil restoration machine it was the first test subject and now this Cranidos it your partner." Byron said. "Happy birthday son." he said.
Roark then ran up and hugged Byron. "Come on Cranidos let's go play!" Roark said. Then Roark and Cranidos went out the door.
"You sure made our son's birthday a happy one," Britney said.
Roark loved his Cranidos. They played together, had snacks together and even practiced Cranidos' moves.
Byron felt proud watching his son train his Pokemon. He saw a gym leader in the making.
