HELLO, AND WELCOME TO THE NEXT CHAPTER OF IN YOUR SPOTLIGHT! I DON'T HAVE ANY NEWS FOR NOW!
ALL RIGHTS GO TO GAME FREAK, THE CREATOR OF POKEMON!
"Hey, Popplio, wanna go see if we can find a new partner?" Moon asked Popplio. It had been three days since Moon and Lana went into the cave that made Popplio, somehow, a little less scared of everything. Lana had said that once, Tapu Lele had lived in the cave, and that it's scales that it sheds still are in there.
"Bwark!" Popplio barked, and looked up at Moon.
"All right, then, let's go!" Moon said, and they raced out the door. Running up to the entrance of Route 1, the spotted a shaking spot in the grass, running away from them.
"Hey!" Moon cried, as Popplio raced into the tall grass, after the Pokémon. "Popplio, wait for me!"
"Piki-piki-pikipek!" The Pokémon cried, and Moon saw that it was a Pikipek. A small black-and-white bird Pokémon. It had red feathers on its head, and a yellow beak.
"It's a Pikipek! Popplio, Water Gun!" Moon said, and Popplio shot a stream of blue water out of its nose. It hit the Pikipek right it the face, and Pikipek countered with a peck attack.
"Piki!" Pikipek said, as the Pokéball Moon threw hit it in the head. The Pokéball shook once, twice, thrice, and…click! The Pokéball snapped shut, and Moon and Popplio had a new friend.
"Yes!" Moon cried, and ran over to the Pokéball, Popplio at his side, and picked it up. "Go, Pikipek!" The little bird Pokémon stood there, not sure if it could trust it's new trainer.
"Pikipek!" It said, and looked at Popplio.
"Bwark!"
"Piki-Pik!"
"Bwark! Bwark!"
"What's going on, Popplio?" Moon asked, looking from Popplio to Pikipek.
"Bwark! Bwar-ark!" Popplio said, and pointed to Pikipek, to Moon, then shook its head.
"He doesn't trust me, does he?" Moon asked, and kneeled down to look at Pikipek. "You don't need to worry. I won't hurt you."
Pikipek looked at Moon, not fully trusting him, and hopped up to him. It climbed into his hand, and allowed Moon to slowly lift it up off the ground. It kept its gaze on Moon's face, analyzing him, as if trying to see whether he will be a good trainer or not.
"Your trying to decide if you like me or not, right?" Moon asked, seeing the observant gaze of the little Pokémon.
"Piki." It said, and nodded its head slowly. Popplio walked up to the two of them and started talking, telling Pikipek that Moon was a great trainer, even though it only new him for a short amount of time.
"Pek." It said, obviously satisfied.
"Ok, Popplio, looks like we have a mew friend." Moon said, and returned his new Pokémon.
WELL, LOOKS LIKE PIKIPEK WAS MOON'S FIRST CATCH. WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW? THE JOURNEY HAS JUST BEGUN!
