The next morning Jaina went to Route Four to look for Pokémon. She found a Ledyba and named her Ruth. She trained Ruth quick then met up with the others. They went to Lumiose City to meet with Master Sycamore. When they got there they went straight to his lab.

"Hello young Knights." He greeted them.

They bowed. "Hello Master Sycamore."

"I have heard that Knight Solo has gotten the first badge."

"That's right." Jaina showed him her badge. "Santalune is under Reshkari control."

Master Sycamore nodded. "Very good. Now I have here three Pokemon and three Mega stones."

"OOO! They're so pretty!" Shauna said admiring the stones.

"Shauna please." Calem moaned.

"Why have you shown us them?" Trevor asked.

"I want one of you to pick a Pokémon. I will give you its corresponding Mega Stone. Diantha, the current Champion, is believed to be being manipulated by a member of the Elite Four."

"That's not surprising." Calem said. "She barely got the position, and only because she's a Reshkari Master capable of using Mega evolution."

"I have tried to talk to her but she can be rather…"

"Dimwitted?" Calem offered.

"You shouldn't talk about Master Diantha that way." Jaina said.

Sycamore sighed. "Moving on. I need one of you to master Mega Evolution. It is the only way you will stand a chance, not just against Master Diantha, but in general."

"But isn't Mega Evolution for Masters only?" Trevor asked.

"Sounds like we don't have a choice." Calem said. "That said, I am too busy with Shauna."

"I'm not much of a battler." Tierno said. "I barely made it to Knighthood."

"I'm too inexperienced." Shauna said.

"Umm… I wish to continue my master's study of why Pokémon grow violent during times of conflict." Trevor said.

"Then that leave Knight Solo." Sycamore said.

"What?" Jaina shook her head. "You need a strong bond with you Pokémon. I'm afraid to get close again."

Everyone looked at her.

"Can't my mom or uncle do this?" She asked.

"I was going to ask you anyway, per you mother and uncle's request." Master Sycamore said.

Jaina muttered a curse. "Fine. I'll do it. I'll take the Charmander and the Charizardite X."

Master Sycamore smiled. He gave her the Pokémon and Mega Stone. She named the Charmander Joshua.

"Wait. Where's the key Stone?" Jaina asked.

"The Reshkari Grand Master is in Shalour with his granddaughter. They will have one." Master Sycamore explained.

Jaina nodded. "There's another gym on the way. This will give me a chance to train."

She and the other thanked Master Sycamore and went downstairs. There Shauna's previous master was waiting.

"You must be the young Knights Master Sycamore asked to bring peace to Kalos. My name Master Lysandre."

"Hi Master!" Shauna said.

He ignored her.

"Why did you just ignore you former apprentice?" Jaina asked.

"I have my reasons. Should I fall I do not wish to drag anyone close down with me."

Jaina felt like he was looking right at her. If he was she knew why.

"I must be off." Lysandre walked out the door.

"What does he mean by IF he falls?" Trevor asked.

"Yeah. That's something every Reshkari has to worry about. We can't let that stop us." Teirno said.

"I'm going to grab some coffee." Calem said. Calem went to go get coffee. Shauna and Jaina went with. Trevor and Teirno went looking for Pokémon. When Calem, Shauna and Jaina got to a coffee shop they saw Master Diantha and Master Lysnadre.

"So you continue to do nothing while the region tears itself apart?" Lysandre asked.

"I believe that as Champion I should stay neutral." Diantha replied. "I would hate to been seen like Master Cynthia."

"I suppose that is a valid point." Lysandre conceded.

"Besides, Master Sycamore has four Knights and a Padawan fighting. I believe we Masters should stay back and let them do the fighting. Of course we should intervene if necessary." Diantha said. "I must go now."

"I should too. I have a board meeting." Lysandre turned to leave. He saw Jaina and walked over to her. "I'm sorry if my comment at the lab offended you. I didn't mean to direct it at you."

"I understand. My grandfather fell and took his apprentice with him. But she did start disobeying him behind his back towards the end." Jaina said.

"True. Shauna is just…" He looked at his former apprentice and left.

The three shrugged and got their coffee. Later that night Jaina went to Route Five. She caught an Abra and named him Deuteronomy. She trained him and Joshua quick before going to bed.

The next morning she trained Deuteronomy a bit more and he evolved into Kadabra. She found Trevor and the two traded so Deuteronomy could evolve into Alakazam. Once he did they traded back. She bought a Fire Stone and used it on Leviticus so he could evolve into Simisear. After that she met back up with the group and they went to Camphrier Town.

On the way Joshua evolved into Charmeleon and Genesis evolved into Quilladin. After they rested for a bit they continued on. Route Seven was blocked by a Snorlax. Calem and Jaina moved it with their Aura. Jaina then caught a Hoppip and named him Samuel. She stopped by Route 7 to grab an Espurr. She named her Judges. On Route Eight she found a Bagon and named her Chronicles. On her way back to the Pokemon Center to check Chronicles she found an Axew. She named her Kings.

When she got to the Center and saw Kings' Nature, she put Leviticus in and took Kings out. It had gotten late so she rested. The next day she trained Kings and Exodus. While training Exodus evolved into Pidgotto. She rejoined the group and they made their way to Ambrerre Town. When they got there they rested at the Pokémon Center there. While doing so a scientist came up to them.

"Reshkari? Oh thank goodness."

"What can we do for you?" Calem asked.

"There are some people in red suits causing trouble in Glittering Cave. My assistant is in there. He can get so absorbed in his work that he may not realize that he's in trouble."

"Shauna, stay here. Jaina and I will handle this."

"OK!"

Jaina and Calem headed out. On Route 9 Jaina caught a Hippopatas and named her Ezra. While going through Glittering Cave she got a Cubone and named him Nehemiah. When they got further in they found the people in red suits.

"Halt!" Calem shouted. "We are Reshkari Knights! We are here to stop you!"

"Ha! You think you're so special just because you can use Aura. Well we of Team Flare can use it too! Get them!"

Jaina sent out Kings and Exodus. Calem sent out Espurr. The three Pokemon made quick work of the Team Flare grunts' Pokémon.

"Retreat!" The lead grunt yelled.

"We should let them go." Jaina said.

Calem nodded. "Let's go find that assistant."

They found in the far back of the cave completely unharmed.

"Are you all right?" Jaina asked.

"Why wouldn't I be?" He answered.

Calem sighed. "Your boss was right. You didn't even realize there was trouble."

"Hmm? Well if he sent you then I should repay you." He gave Jaina a Sail Fossil and Calem a Jaw Fossil. "Come back with me and I can revive them if you'd like."

They nodded and followed him out of the cave. Back at the lab the assistant turned the Sail Fossil into Amaura. She named him Job. Calem chose to wait to revive his. Jaina put Numbers and Exodus in the PC and took out Job and Nehemiah.

When they arrived at Cyllage City Jaina went to Route 10 quick to grab a Nosepass. She named her Esther. Then on her to the Cyllage City Pokemon Center she caught an Onix and named her Psalms. After that she joined the others at the Pokémon Center for the night.

The next morning she put Job in the PC and took out Esther. She then spent a few days training. When she felt ready she went to the gym.

"I'm Reshkari Knight Jaina Solo! I'm here to claim Cyllage City in the name of the Reshkari Order!" She said to Grant the Gym Leader.

"Well I hope you can back up that confidence." Grant said. "For if you can't, then I will be one step closer to awakening the Legendary. I will use its power to be forever young so I can be forever fit. I will never be slowed down by age. I will always come out on top as an athlete."

Grant sent out Amaura. Jaina sent out Esther. Esther used Rock Blast, but Amuara dodged and used Take down. Esther shook it but was hit by Thunder Waver before she could fully recover. She countered with Rock Blast right in Amaura's face. Its skull was slowly cracked and it soon bleed out and died.

Tyrunt was the replacement. Jaina switched to Nehemiah. Tyrunt used Stomp and Bite, but Nehemiah stood strong. He used Bonemerang. The first hit broke Tyrunt's jaw. The second took it clean off. It fell over bleeding. It soon died.

"So you can back up that confidence." Grant said. "I guess I will have to deal with growing slower with age…"

He gave her the Cliff Badge. "Cyllage City is now under your control."

Jaina smiled. With another badge under her belt she decided to go to the Pokémon Center and spend time with her Pokémon. They deserved it.
