The story's kinda slow, isn't it? Don't worry, it'll pick up. Eventually.
Just hang with me, I promise it gets better!

I woke up in the same clearing in a lot of pain. My head felt like I had been rammed by a Rhyhorn. Or maybe an Onix. I couldn't tell. All I knew was that it hurt. Bad.
"Looks like Aquafire's awake!" yelled Lunar to the others.
"Hey, buddy, you had us all worried for awhile," said Arbiter.
"You almost died. Larissa used up some what little strength she had left to keep you alive," said Shockwave a little solemnly. "Don't worry, though, she's recuperating over there."
"What happened with those trainers?" I asked, struggling to get up, but fell down trying. My legs just couldn't hold me up.
"Well," Calypso started. "After you passed out, Shockwave zapped that Pidgeot who had attacked you with his electric/psychic blast, and sent it flying back to its master." She gave a nice Whump sound for added effect.
"But then, those two other trainers sent their twelve pokémon against us," added Firestrike. "We were fighting, but losing."
"Chiko got captured before any of us could defend," said Kirin sadly. Chiko was this little Chikorita who had tailed us, but for some reason, I forgot about her. Weird. I didn't even notice the silent pipsqueak or remembered that it followed us until Kirin spoke her name.
"Every single one of us would've been captured, had it not been for Blade and Flameheart," said Larissa, pointing wearily to the newcomers with her wing.
I saw a lightly tinged brown Scyther and a light blue Flareon come walking up.
"Nice to see you up, Aquafire," said the Scyther. "You really had us worried. Poor Caly over there was practically crying streams of water." At this, Calypso smacked the Scyther in the leg with her tail in annoyance.
"We knew Blade and Flameheart from the labs, but they managed to break out," said Calypso. "They were one of the first pokémon experimented on by those scientists."
"I can use ground-type attacks," Blade stated, "and Flameheart can use both fire- and ice-type attacks."
Just then, a large shadow passed over all of us. Everyone glanced up at it as it went past. It circled around, and landed in front of the group.
"Astroleon, long time no see," said Flameheart.
"Right back at you, old friend," Astroleon replied. "Good to see both you and Blade again in good health."
"Are you here to give us more advice?" said Shockwave, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. " 'Cause that last bit of advice kinda sucked."
"Yes," Astroleon replied. "There is a place near what humans call Fuchsia City where a pokémon retreat is, high up in the mountains. The humans don't even know that it exists. It is a place where pokémon can live without fear."
"Well then, where is it?" asked Fireburst.
"Unfortunately, it is a very long and hard journey from here," he replied. "Some of you may be captured, others of you possibly killed. You must also battle pokémon trainers to grow stronger."
"We're willing to take that chance," Calypso said firmly, "as long as we don't have to go back to the labs."
Everyone nodded in agreement at Calypso's statement.
"If you're willing to go through the danger, then follow this: Go east to the place of the Ghost pokémon, the place humans call Lavender Town," Astroleon said. "From there, follow the road south. That road will eventually lead to Fuchsia City." With that said, Astroleon alighted into the air. Before he flew out of sight, though, he said this.
"Remember this: Friends can be friends, but also enemies!" Then, he flew off and disappeared in the cerulean of the sky.
"So everyone, are we all up to it?" I asked.
"I'm ready," said Calypso.
"Count me in," agreed Lunar.
"If it means absolute freedom," Shadow said. "Then heck yea!"
"Freedom from capture," Firestrike added.
"Don't forget freedom from anymore experiments on us," said Shockwave.
"Let's do it," agreed Larissa, Arbiter, Kirin, and Fireburst simultaneously.
"Are you coming with us too?" I asked Blade and Flameheart.
"Yes, we had no cause, no hope, but now, we do," said Blade solemnly. "We'll come."
"All right then, on to Lavender Town!" Calypso yelled.

Well, now to get back to re-editing… This chapter was mainly a filler. I'm told that the second "season" is the best, because of all the blood, gore, and overall carnage. But from this point, there's not much yet. Next chappy coming tomorrow.
New charas:
Blade-Scyther-Brown/Green-Ground/Bug/Grass/Flying
Flameheart-Flareon-Blue/Red/Orangish blue neck frill-Fire/Water/Ice
