I do not own any pokemon or anything related to them. The story is my idea. Everything belongs to its original owner.
On our way to Littleroot, I noticed a Shinx I sent Ralts up against it to see what she could do. The Shinx started with a Leer. Ralts seemed unfazed by it. I then had her use her growl. Shinx must not have liked it because he retaliated with Takle; which knocked her back. I then had her follow up with confusion and that was that. Once it was down, I caught it and then we moved on.
We got to town around noonish that day. Everything seemed the same as when I left. The clear sky, the soft grass, the delicious air, it was all here. I missed it so much.
"Tony, are you coming?" She asked hurriedly.
"Yeah, sorry I was just remembering everything." I replied.
We continued on to see Prof. Birch. When we got there he was talking to someone, he seemed to be a new trainer. He looked like he was picking his Pokemon. We decided to head over as well.
"Oh hello May, I was expecting you. Norman called, he said you would be coming by. Come on over, Brandon here was about to pick his first Pokemon." He explained with a smile on his face. " So Brandon, have you decided?" He asked.
"Yes, I want Treeko." He exclaimed.
"Ah, wise choice." Prof. Birch assured.
"Thanks a bunch." He siad politely.
"Now then, how about you, May?" Asked the Prof.
"I wasn't to sure at first, but I've been thinking about it a lot and I want to go with Torchic." May explained.
"Your just picking Torchic because I chose Treeko." Said the angry new Trainer.
"Now, Now kids, no need to fight." Said a slightly agitated Prof. Birch.
She then got some Pokeballs, a Pokedex, and we went on our way. Upon going outside we were confronted by that Brandon kid.
"You, girl, battle me!" He commanded.
"First off, my name is May. Second, I don't want to battle." May tried to explain.
"That doesn't matter girl." Brandon shouted. "Rules are, once challenged, if you have Pokemon and are challenged, then you must accept."
He was right after all.
"If you want a battle then I'll battle you." I said trying to get his attention.
"Which pokemon was your starter?" He asked.
"I chose a Mudkip as my partner." I told him.
"Alright challenge accepted." Brandon said gaining a smile.
So from here the battle began. It was one on one with no time limit.
"Go Treeko". Brandon called out
He threw his Pokeball, it hit the ground in shot out a white light. Out of the Pokeball came Treeko. It stood with in a battle stance ready to take its customers orders.
"Go Ralts" was my repsonse.
"Hey, you lied. You said you were gonna use Mudkip." Brandon cried.
"No, I simply said that Mudkip was the starter that I picked" I calmly told him.
"Oh whatever, Treeko, use Pound!" His trainer commanded.
"Ralts, dodge!" I called out.
As his Treeko ran over and juped in the air and spun around, swinging its tail towards Ralts, she managed to jump out of the way. She made it just in the nic of time.
"Ok Ralts use Cofusion." I called as she jumped back.
She spun around and shot a blast of psychic energy right at his Treeko who got knocked back into a nearby tree and fell down fainted.
"You..." He growled. "This won't be the end. Next time I will beat you"
He then stormed off really angrily. I found it kind of funny to be entirely honest. Then there was a slight tugging on my sleeve.
"Thanks for battling for me Tony" May said shyly. "I've never battled before so I was nervous."
"No problem May, glad to help." I assured her; and then I switched my focus to Ralts. "And as for you, Ralts, great job! You really showed them a thing or two.
Ralts then looked at me and I saw her eyes; huge with excitment, thankful for the praise and happy that she'd done a good job. But, seeing how she has been acting towards me, I don't know if I would have said that to her. I'm not really positive what I should have said.
So we were heading back to Petalburg so May could let her Dad know that she got a Pokemon and that everything is okay. Once we got to Oldale it was getting dark so we stopped for dinner and got a room at the Pokemon Center. I let my Pokemon out of their Pokeballs for the night. I saw Mudkip find a soft spot on the carpet. And Mawile jumped up and layed on the chair. May's Torchic was laying on the floor next to the heating duct.
I couldn't see Ralts at first I was looking everywhere that I could, without getting up. I looked on May's bed and on the couch with Mawile. I looked on the floor too, over by Mudkip and over by Torchic. I couldn't see her but then I felt my bed move and saw a lump under the covers moving towards me. I lifted them up and there she was. I saw her get a huge smile and grab my arm, refusing to let go. So I just gave up pulled the covers up and went to sleep.
(Sorry this ones a shorter chapter but I was actually touching this one up and finishing just as I was about to go to sleep my self.)
