Acacia, Lickitung, and a Cool Pokémon Journey
Part 10
"I just have to take a rest!" groaned Acacia. She slumped down under a willow tree from exhaustion. Getting to Bill's lighthouse was harder than it looked, being up on cliffs and all. Lickitung collapsed down on top of her, causing her to let out a slight "Ouch!"
"You're not tired already are you? We've only been out her for,"
"An hour and a half!" Said Acacia, finishing Manny's sentence.
"Fine. We'll rest for a while. Say! I bet the Pokemon are getting restless in their Pokeballs. Let's let them out and we can sit down to watch them," suggested Manny. He tossed five Pokeballs and out came his Jolteon, Slowbro, Sandshrew, Gloom, and newly acquired Venomoth. Acacia did likewise and sent out Arbok, Growlithe, and Dagger. Lickitung had been walking also and
decided to keep laying down in its trainer's lap. They watched their Pokemon frolic for a while before returning them and heading on. In another half hour, they were finally at the beautifully decorated doors of Bill's lighthouse. Acacia pushed the buzzer.
"Yes? Who is it?" asked a voice that could have only been Bill's.
"Hi Bill! Remember me, Manny?" asked Manny excitedly.
"Oh yes! You're the young man a gave my Eevee away to. How is it doing anyway?" said Bill.
"Fine. It's a Jolteon now," replied Manny.
"Really? You always did have good taste in Pokemon!"
"I most certainly still do,"
"You must tell me what you've been up to lately,"
"Well Bill,"
"Hey, I'm a friend of Manny's," butted in Acacia, "My name is Acacia. We were wondering if you had any extra beds we could sleep in tonight, and maybe you could give me some pointers on Pokemon,"
"Well, for Manny and any friends he has, they are welcome to stay! Come in," said Bill. The large doors opened up and they walked inside. They found Bill in the room beside the main hallway tending to a Pidgey.
"Ah, welcome back Manny! And this must be your new friend. Acacia was it?" asked Bill. She nodded. He continued, "You must be a great trainer to have captured Manny's interest. He never makes friends with anyone unless they are great trainers," Acacia went red. When Manny had first met her, he had just wanted the Venomoth and walked away and then joined her because she could transform. Could he be a false friend? But if he were, he wouldn't have come to rescue her. Acacia put her mind at ease with this thought in mind.
"Actually Bill, she is a great trainer but that's not the only reason. I'll show you," said Manny. He pulled Acacia in front of Bill so he could see her. Manny asked, "Would you do a transformation for us please? For me?"
"Well, I, uh, hmm. As long as Bill knows how to keep a secret." said Acacia after stumbling on a few words.
"Oh I can do that. I've kept all my findings top secret for years, revealing them only when necessary. Go on. What is this transformation?" said Bill, intrigued.
"Okay, here goes," said Acacia. She had read a lot about Bill so she decided to focus on a Pokemon she knew would impress him. She began to grow. She grew bigger than any human had ever stood. Bill jumped back and tried to hide behind his Pidgey. Pidgey on the other hand was trying to hide behind Bill. She became a light, hazy orange. Orange and mellow blue wings blossomed out of her back. Out the top of her head came two wavy antennae. She grew claws, but not sharp ripping claws. More like, gentle claws that could still scratch you if they wanted to. She began to gain a bit of weight. A tail sprouted from her behind. Soon she was moaning a song that sounded a bit like a whale's. She was Dragonite! She knew Bill had once seen what appeared to be a giant Dragonite and yearned to see Dragonite again someday. It said so in his autobiography.
"My word! That is the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life! I've been waiting for the chance to meet another Dragonite for a long time. Are you really human, or just a Dragonite in the disguise of a human?" babbled Bill.
"She's human all right. Some jerk guy named Ian zapped her with a device that made this happen. At first, she told me she would just transform into the Pokemon that best represented her emotions. Then she learned to become specific types and control her changes. We would be very grateful if you not tell anyone. She might end up in some lab being tested," explained Manny.
"Very well then. I will keep your secret. But under one condition," said Bill.
"What?" said Manny.
"Let me observe your friend here for a moment. I need to research Dragonite if my studies are ever going to be even close to finished. And while I do, I'll give you training tips. Sound fair?" proposed Bill.
"Absolutely. Right Acacia?" answered Manny. Acacia nodded her big dragon head yes. Bill took notes on her for a few hours while giving tips like battle more to gain more experience and power, use extreme caution when trying to capture a wild Pokemon that is not weakened first, and to always seek out new Pokemon, new challenges, and new friends. Afterwards, Acacia and Manny left Bill's lighthouse. They are on the lookout for the closest gym. Little do they know, they are secretly being followed by a Pokemon that
is interested in them. As it followed, it let out a cry that will lead to events in the next chapter,
"Luuuugiiiaaaa!"
