Calem's POV
"Uhh" Calem said waking up
Calem climbed out of bed and grabbed a mirror. He put on a white shirt with a black Nike logo on it, and put on a pair of black sweat pants with a white Nike logo on. Calem then went outside and brushed his teeth and combed his hair. Calem then quietly tip-toed out his tent. Calem then snuck past everyone else's tent, the effort was for naught as he heard snores coming from everyone's tent. I guess there all asleep Calem thought. Calem then went out and found a freshwater pond that had clean water and began to fill his water bottle with it.
End of POV
Calem finshed his cup and decided to look at the nature. Calem decided to get the clothes he wore yesterday, and got a bar of soap.
Serena's POV
Serena opened her eyes and stretched. She heard Calem go out and decided to go after him, however she needed to change first. She untied her ponytail and then brushed it and washed it. She then changed out of her clothes. Serena then double checked to make sure her tent was closed. Serena then put on a white crop top shirt on top, and tied the bottom of the shirt into a bowtie. Serena then decided put on a pair of navy blue leggings she recently bought. Serena then frowned the crop top hugged her chest to much making it pop out, the leggings were a size to small so she couldn't really stretch and it outlined her hips.
"I'll guess this will have to do" she thought
She decided to wash her clothes from yesterday while she was at it and grabbed them.
Serena then retied her hair into a ponytail and headed outside to find Calem.
End of POV
Tierno woke up, and his stomach growled he always hated being hungry. He then changed clothes and decided to sport some camo Jean's, and a gray shirt that had a Pikachu on it.
Tierno then decided to wake up everyone so they could hopefully make breakfast. He checked Serena and Calem's tent but no one answered.
"Serena!" Tierno said checking her tent "Calem" he said checking his tent
"Why are you yelling" Trevor said rubbing his eyes
"That hungry for food Tierno" Shauna said
Tierno turned around. Trevor was wearing a pair of black Jean's, and a collared denim blue shirt with red and green lines going through it. Shauna was wearing tight ripped jeans. They were baby blue and she had a cotton candy pink shirt tucked into it, with a red rose tucked into the chest pocket.
"Sorry guys I was just hungry so I wanted to see if anyone was up" Tierno said
"It's okay, by the way did Calem and Serena run off or something" Shauna said
"They probably went to get some fresh air, I have some frozen pancakes we can microwave while we wait fo them" Trevor said
"Yeah Serena and Calem are practicing the only ones that can cook" Trevor said
The threw of them found put some pancakes in Trevor's portable mini microwave and began heating up the pancakes
Serena began walking the down the trail to find Calem. While walking down the path she noticed the forest was teeming with life. There were Pokemon sleeping, eating and playing all around her. She was happy that the Pokemon weren't scared of humans. She then looked around and saw Calem by a spring cleaning his clothes from yesterday.
"Can I join you" Serena said sitting next to him
"Of course I was just cleaning my clothes I hope I didn't worry any of you"
"Nope, anyways how do you like my outfit?" Serena asked
"I think you look beautiful" Calem said
"Thanks Calem" Serena said blushing
The two quickly cleaned their clothes, and decided to watch the forest around them. Sometimes it was nice to take a breath from everything and watch the nature around you even if its only for a few minutes.
"We should head back to the other's" Calem said
The two made their way back to the camp to the smell of pancakes being heated up.
"Hey glad your guys are back" Tierno said
"Just in time for breakfast" Trevor said
"Thanks" Calem said "I think we still have some Pokefood left for the pokemon"
"Everyone come out" Serena said
Everyone left their Pokemon come out and they all sat down and ate together. After that the Pokemon found a rubber ball and decided to play the game keep away. Serena had just threw the ball over Calem's head.
"I'll get it" Calem said
Calem began searching for it and ran to a girl with a lion like Pokemon and a cat like pokemon walking with her.
"Hi, nice to meet you is this your ball yours" the girl said "My name is Gwen"
The girl was around his age and around his height. She had long light blonde hair, and had a hour glass body and was very curvy. She was wearing a white silk like Champion shirt, and had on a pair of tight baby blue jeans and had tan like skin.
"Hi my name is Calem" Calem said
"So what are those Pokemon?" Calem asked
"Oh these are Litleo and Espur" Gwen said
"Wow your Pokemon look so cool" Calem said
"Thanks" Gwen said blushing "You look like you haven't seen them before so I'll pull up their Pokedex entries"
"Zzt Litleo the lion like Pokemon! Female form, Fire Normal type! When they're young, they live with a pride. Once there able to hunt prey on their own, they're kicked out and have to make their own way"
"Wow Litleo looks really cool" Calem said
Gwen then pointed her pokedex at her Espurr.
"Espurr the physic cat Pokemon!" male form, Physic type! The organ the emits its intense physic power is sheltered by its ear to keep its power from leaking out!"
"What does it mean by female form?" Calem asked
"Apparently Litleo and Espurr have different appearances when they evolve depending on their gender" Gwen said
"Wow that's really cool" Calem said
"I know, I was just finishing up my peformance rehearsal, and was training for the gyms" Gwen said
"Me too I want to take down all 8 gyms and become Champion " Calem said
Those 2 statements opened up a world of conversation for them. They began talking about sports, Pokemon, food, and music and quickly bonded. In a way they were alike. They both liked to to play video games, they were great cooks, loves sports and adventure , and aboustley loved Pokemon and were great trainers.
"I just moved to Kalos" Calem said
"Oh, hope you enjoy Kalos, I live in Santulne City" Gwen said
The two trainers then exchanged contact information.
"Me and my friends were planning on heading to Route 3 you want to join us" Calem said
Gwen's POV
Gwen considered, one on hand Calem was really cute and nice, but she was also a lone wolf. What the heck I don't have to stay forever, I can always just visit him and his friends a lot Grace thought.
End of POV
"Ok I'll come with you" Gwen said with a smile
"Great we were just playing a quick game of Keep Away before we left" Calem said
"I love keep away escipally if I play with a cute boy like you, if you know what I mean" Gwen said flirtatiously
"Ok let's go!" Calem said not even realizing Gwen was flirting
"Uhh he's so oblivious, but it makes him look even cuter" Gwen said
"What did you sa-"
"Oh it's nothing" Gwen said grabbing his hand and running towards the main path
"Finally there you are" Tierno said
"It's been 15 minutes" Shauna said
"Who are you walking with?" Serena asked
Calem said he was sorry and introduced Gwen. Then they all began talking and exchanged contact information. Then all decided to keep playing Keep Away.
"Ok I call Calem's team" Gwen said hugging Calem
"Looks like I don't really have a choice" Calem said half heartedly
"I wanted to be on your team Calem" Serena said blushing
Gwen notice and decided to take it into note. Serena and Shauna made a team and Tierno and Trevor were on teams. The rules were you could had to run to a goal and once you went in you scored a point. The catch was if someone touched you that person's team got the ball, this is why you had to have a teammate and have good team work. The game went even until Calem juked past Tierno and made it into the goal they had set up.
"Wow your great Calem" Serena said blushing
Gwen had a idea on where this was going but said nothing. After a few minutes of no one scoring Shauna got the ball and slid past Trevor. She then threw it over to Serena. Gwen tried to tip the ball but her hands barely missed it. Serena then caught the ball with Tierno and Calem chasing her. Serena then threw the ball towards the goal but then slipped. As Tierno went to get the ball Calem stopped and went back to Serena.
"Are you okay Serena" Calem said offering a hand
"Ye yes I'm fi fine" Serena said blushing while staring at Calem
Gwen saw all this and made a mental note to talk to Serena later. Serena took her hand and stood up. About 15 minutes later they decided to call the game with Trevor and Tierno winning after a game winning goal by Tierno. The final score being 3-5-6. Gwen then asked Serena if they could talk.
"Calem is pretty cute isn't he" Gwen said winking at Serena
"Wha, I mean yesss" Serena said blushing heavily
"Relax it's fine I have a crush on him too" Gwen said
"Ok let's have a competition to see who gets Calem then" Grace said
"Uhhm fine I accept your challenge" Serena said with a smile
The two girls then walked back to the group.
The group then put up their Pokemon and exited Santlune Forest entering Route 3 to see a whole bunch of trainers signing their name on a bulletin.
"Looks like it's a tournament" Calem said
"Yeah it's a Pokemon Battle Single tournament, I was training to enter it before I found you guys. They hold one every month!" Gwen said in joy
"Hey if you're interested in joining the tournament it's single battle, up to 3 pokemon allowed" a trainer said
"5 minutes left to sign up" another trainer said
"Only 6 more participants may enter, only 48 may enter" another trainer said
"Ok for the prizes 1st place gets a Pokemon Egg and 5 rare candies so you can train your Pokemon, 2nd place gets 5,000 Poke Dollars and 3 rare candies, and 3rd Place gets 2,500 Poke Dollars and one rare candy!" the Leader said "There will be 3 rounds, and once we get to 4 trainers left I'll explain the rules for them"
"Ok let's join" Calem said
"Looks fun I'm in" Serena said
Shauna and Tierno joined, and all who was left was Trevor.
"Come on join Trevor" Shauna said
"I'm not really into battling but I'll join" Trevor said
Calem, Serena, Shauna, Gwen, Tierno, and Trevor all wrote their names on the bulletin. Since 48 trainers filled the spots the tournament could begin.
"The first match we'll have is Gwen verus Steve" the leader said
"Good luck" Calem said
"Thanks Calem" Gwen said walking on to the battlefield
BATTLE BEGIN!
Gwen verus Steve
"Since Steve has only 1 Pokemon, the battle will be a 1v1" the leader said
"Come on out Skrelp" Steve said
"I choose you Litleo" Gwen said
Gwen then pointed her pokedex at Skrelp.
"Zzt Skerlp the dragon seahorse Pokemon! It vanishes into seaweed and remains perfectly still to hide from large Pokemon. It also uses the seaweed to cling to since it's not good at swimming"
"Gwen's going up against a water type so she's at a disadvantage" Trevor said
"I believe in her I think she still has a chance to win" Calem said
"Ok let's form a strategy Litleo use Work Up!" Gwen said
Litleo then began pacing back and forth and then roared. Then a orange like glow came over it indicating its power rose.
"Don't let it set up, use Water Gun" Steve said
"Block it with the dirt on the battlefield" Gwen said
Skrelp fired a fast and speedy Water Gun. Just when it was about to hit Litleo, Litleo threw up her paw and a cloud of dirt appeared blocking the Water Gun.
"Now use Leer" Gwen said
Litleo then gave Skrelp a angry glare scaring it, and leaving it frightened.
"Now use Ember around it, then follow up with a Headbutt" Gwen said confidently
"Skrelp don't just stand there doge it" Steve said nervously
However Litleo had used a Leer on it so it was too scared to move, so it stood there. Litleo then used Heatbutt on it striking it hard, Skrelp fell to the ground hard. Skrelp stayed on the ground for a long time and just when it seemed like it would get back up, Litleo surrounded it with a Ember. Then Ember was extra hot and stronger having received a boost from the Howl.
"Skrel" the seahorse Pokemon said the fire covering it completely so that it couldn't see at all.
"Try to stay calm, now throw out your Acid attack to stop Litleo" Steve said sounding nervously himself
Skrelp looked back at it's trainer and saw that it was nervous. Skrelp then began panicking and sweating and started firing random Acid attacks in the air. However Litleo managed to dodge all of them with ease.
"Now Litleo... Use Thunder Fang" Gwen said triumphantly
"Wow so her Litleo knows Thunder Fang!" Calem said suprised
"Gwen's a good trainer, having moves to counter Litleo's weaknesses" Serena said nodding her head
Skrelp then tried to look at the battlefield, however it still couldn't see as the Ember was covering it completely. Skrelp looked back and forth and tried to listen for Litleo's movements but it heard nothing. Just when Skrelp thought it was safe for a second Litleo appeared jumping through the the fire, with its fangs glowing yellow and had electric pulsing through them. Litleo then leaped and and tackled Skrelp to the ground and bit it with Thunder Fang. When the fire did finally clear Skrelp had fainted and Litleo stood victourys.
"Skrelp is unable to battle, which means Gwen wins" the ref said
BATTLE END!
"Yay we did it!" Gwen said hugging her Litleo
"Wow you were a great trainer, how'd you get so good? Could you also tell me what I did wrong?" Steve asked
"Well for starters, I battle a lot and I already started on my journey 3 weeks ago, and I have a gym badge" Gwen said "The other problem I noticed is that you and Skrelp don't have a lot of sync yet. It doesn't help that you look nervous around your Pokemon. If you look nervous so will your Pokemon" Gwen said
"Ok thanks for the advice, good luck in the tournament" Steve said walking off with a smile
"Thanks" Gwen said politely walking over to the group
"I didn't know you were such a experienced trainer Gwen, you already have a gym badge" Calem said
"Yep the first gym badge is the Bug Gym located in Santlune City, which is right next to here. The leader of the Gym is this blonde haired women named Viola."
"Viola huh, well I want to challenge her to a battle after this tournament" Calem said
"Well if you want to challenge her you have to register using your Pokedex at a Pokeball Center" Gwen said
"Wow I knew you had to register, but I didn't know you had to have a Pokedex to do it" Serena said
"Yeah I wish they would change it, because that means not everyone will be able to register. You guys all have Pokedex's right? Gwen said taking out her badge case
"Yeah we all have Pokedex's" Tierno said
"Professor Sycamore gave them to us along with a starter Pokemon" Trevor said
"Ok, so that's why Serena, Calem, and Shauna have the Kalos starters" Gwen said "I should have know"
Gwen then opened her badge case. Inside there were 8 outlines of where the badges were suppose to go. The first one was already filled however. The badge was a bronze ladybug with alien like green spots on it.
"Wow the bug badge looks so cute" Shauna said
"Okay, the next match is starting" the leader said
A trainer named David won the match. After that match more matches started and trainers won and lost. About 2 hours went by and noon came up.
"Okay I'll announce our last 3 more matches before we begin our hour break." the leader said
"Ok he said drawing from a slip. We have Calem vs Amy, Serena vs Jake, Shauna vs Tiffany, and Tierno verus Trevor.
"Ok let's make lunch" Serena and Calem said
"I'm a really good cook so I'll help" Gwen said
"Let's make French Onion Soup" Gwen said
"Ok sound great" Calem said
"I'll make some fruit punch" Serena said
Serena took out her oven and turned it on and gave it to Gwen to use. Serena then got some fresh fruit, some water and a glass pitcher. Calem got out some vegetables, berries and chunks of cut up steak. Gwen then got out seasoning and spoon and took out some soup mix. Then Shauna, Trevor, and Tierno got a foldable wooden table and some chairs and set it out...
