Hey ho, let's go! (Tyson, Alexis, and Bolt fixing their new clothes and smiles at the camera)
Another day, another quest (Tyson, Alexis, and Bolt and their Pokemon are seen stretching then flashing to Tyson and Bolt sparing)
On the road to be the best! (Tyson in the Kalos League and Alexis in The Grand Festival)
Can't let evil get me down (Tyson is confronted by Brett and Beedrill, Cruz with Ampharos, two trainers with their Pokemon shrouded in darkness standing under a man smirking evilly)
Not when I got great friends around! (Bolt and Alexis comes and puts their hand on his back)
I will! (2x) be a champion (Tyson is shown with 10 faded Pokemon behind him)
Let's go! (2x) bring it on! (Ryan flashes with Chespin and another Pokemon, Lucas flashes with Roselia and Ralts, Molly flashes with Dewott and Charmander and another trainer with two Pokemon)
I know there are mysteries to be told (The Hood is standing on top of a huge tower as his Mega Charizard zips forward and breaks the camera)
All I need to do is reach for gold! (Tyson steps on the broken glass and see Owen about 20 steps ahead of him)
Hey ho, let's go! (Tyson, Alexis, and Bolt are standing on a hill, looking at the sunset)
Hey everybody, Blaze Falcon's here with the latest chapter of Pokemon Kalos Legends! Last time, Alexis entered her first contest and lost in the semis to Beatrice, who then lost to Lucas.
El Torro: I'm trying to make Lucas a force to be reckoned with in both contests and battles. Alexis will get her chance to show up both of her rivals.

"Feels good to be back on the road!" Tyson exclaimed. He stretched his arms out as he tried to grasp the sun. Frogadier copied his trainer as their companions smiled.
"So full of energy," Bolt stated, as he walked with both arms on the back of his head.
"You know it," Alexis replied. She held tight possession of her Fennekin.
"All I care about is getting to Cyllage Ci-" Tyson started before a small black dog ran into view.
The dog barked before he ran towards Tyson. He opened his mouth and showed teeth that it was sharp as electricity danced around them. The dog lunged toward Tyson as he glared his teeth.
Frogadier leaped in front of his trainer as he took the super effective attack. The water type smirked at the damage as he ripped the black dog off his arm and threw him in the air.
"Give him what he deserves with Ice Punch!"
The frog pushed his fist up, which was encased in ice. Frogadier prepared to jump before an old lady walked over.
"Wait! Stop that Poochyena!" she cried as Frogadier stopped his moved and grabbed several Frubbles from his 'scarf'. He threw them at the dog as he fell into his hands. The evolved Pokemon fixed the shape into a cube that Poochyena's head stuck out.
"Oh thank you," the lady said, taking the cubefied dog. "Please, let me thank you properly. Follow me children."
The old lady walked off, leaving the trio in the walkway. They all looked at each other before they followed the woman.

"Welcome to the Day Care Center!" the old lady stated as she let the teens walk into a large farm with dozens of Pokemon frolicking around.
"This place is pretty cool," Bolt stated as Luxio ran off, along with Fennekin.
"We try," the older lady replied as she chuckled. She walked into a building as she held the door for the trainers. Inside, multiple Pokemon sat down with buckets of food in front of them. After the door closed, a small pink cat ran towards the woman and tugged at her pants.
"Selene! Your back!" she shouted as the outburst stunned the teens.
"That Skitty can talk!" Alexis exclaimed, shocked at the tiny Pokemon.
"Of course I can talk! Doesn't that frog have a translator?" Skitty asked, which caused the trainers to shake their heads. Selene returned with a box and sat it on the ground.
"This is my thanks," she said. Frogadier grabbed a translator and put it around his neck.
"This is going to be cool," Frogadier said, in a sly voice. He jumped at the sound of his voice, if he would talk the human language.
"Wow! That's incredible!" Bolt stated. The blonde looked at the countless black devices in the box and decided to take 10, which was proceeded by his friends.
"This is the new age of Pokemon," Selene responded as Fennekin and Luxio ran into the space. Thier respective trainers strapped a black device around their necks.
"What's this?" Fennekin asked before she realized her question was answered. She jumped back by the sound of her voice in the human tongue.
"This is pretty slick!" Luxio shouted, which put a smile on the trainers' faces.
"I'm glad you like them," Selene said. She walked over to the door, which led outside, and motioned the young teens to come forward.
"Where are we going Selene?" Alexis inquired. The old woman kept walking until the trio saw several Pokemon who sat down.
"Are these Pokemon here for training?" Tyson asked.
"Not in the way you think," she answered. "These are Pokemon that live here that help train other trainer's Pokemon."
"So the help?" Bolt tried to simplify. Alexis, once heard his remark, smashed him into the ground. Bolt was laid out on the ground, not moving an inch. Tyson and Selene chuckled at the coordinator's assault.
"Excuse me, Miss Selene," a kind voice started as Tyson saw a small and chubby teal Pokemon who had half of cream fur on his head and as a center. He held a small silver dish, which had small crumbs.
Munchlax, the Big Eater Pokemon. It conceals food under the long fur on its body. It carts around this food stash and swallows it without chewing.
"Yes Munchlax?" Selene inquired of the normal type. Tyson eyed the Big Eater Pokemon curiously as Munchlax held his plate up. He used his plate to hide his eyes, which looked down.
"May I please have more food?" he asked.
"Sure Munchlax, I'll be right back," Selene answered. She walked away from the group and made her way back inside.
"Of course fatty wants more," a voice shouted, which drew attention from both Tyson and Munchlax. A small, muscular Pokemon with gray skin walked forward with a smirk on his face.
Machop, the Superpower Pokemon. Machop exercises by hefting around a Graveler as if it were a barbell. There are some Machop that travel the world in a quest to master all kinds of martial arts.
"Oh, hi Machop," Munchlax waved at the incoming Pokemon. Machop grinned as he was followed by the Poochyena from before and a Bunnelby.
"How's it going chubbs?" the fighting type asked. His two lackies snickered as the normal type just smiled.
"I'm fine! Although, I could go for another plate of food," he answered.
"I know that. I'm surprised you even ate less than 20 plates today!" Machop exclaimed, which drew laugh from his colleagues. Munchlax just smiled as Tyson got closer into the conversation.
"Yeah. I'm trying to lay off like you told me too."
"Maybe in a thousand years fatty! Gotta go! Let's go you two," Machop ordered his followers. They both nodded as the duo ran off with Machop.
"I'm back Munchy!" Selene called as she dashed to the Normal type with a full plate of food. Munchlax smiled as he ran to meet the wonderful woman.

"Why don't you guys spend the night? It's been great having you around," an old man asked as he scratched his gray beard.
"Come on Jeffrey. Let's not persuade them!" Selene scolded as her husband chuckled by his wife's outburst. The traveling trio laughed nervously as Alexis began to clear her throat.
"Sure, it's already late. It'll be good to sleep in a warm bed," the coordinator said as her companions nodded.
"Great! Let's show you to your rooms then!" Jeffrey stated as Selene just shook her head.

It was pitch black at night as Tyson just couldn't sleep. On the bed above him, Bolt snored as Luxio sleep on the front of his bed. Alexis was tucked in as Fennekin was snuggled right in her arms. Tyson got up from his bed in gold shorts and an emerald tank top. He tip toed out the room to be met by his Bubble Frog.
"Where are you going?" Frogadier asked his trainer.
"I just can't sleep. I'm going for a walk," the golden haired boy responded as he walked by the Water Type. Frogadier followed him as he cracked his neck.
"Wherever you go, I go."
"Sure."
As the duo walked around the vast land, a faint noise could be heard.
"Where's that coming from?" Tyson inquired as his starter dashed off. Tyson grunted as he chased after the fast water type.
A couple minutes passed by as the two spotted the source of the noise. It was a small, chubby Pokemon who sat on the down. As Tyson and Frogadier got closer, they could hear the cry that came from the chubby Pokemon.
"Munchlax?" Tyson asked as the Normal type turned around. Munchlax's face was drowned in water, which must have been tears.
"Who are you?" the Big Eater Pokemon asked and quickly wiped his face. Tyson kneeled down and rubbed Munchlax's head.
"A friend. My name is Tyson Pernell and this is Frogadier," the trainer introduced as he gestured towards the Kalos Pokemon, who waved. "May I ask why you were crying?"
"Me, crying? Now way!" Munchlax said as he wiped his face.
"You don't have to put up a front when you're near us," Frogadier stated as Munchlax looked at the powerful water type.
"Is this because of Machop?" Tyson asked. The normal type had a shocked expression on his face.
"How do you know him?" Munchlax questioned the trainer.
"I don't. I overheard the conversation between you two."
"Oh, well he's a great guy and-" Munchlax was cut off as Tyson's loud voice.
"Stop lying! You need to stand up for yourself!" Tyson boomed as Munchlax put his head down.
"But, I'm not strong enough," Munchlax stated, which made his voice crack a little.
"Tomorrow, you and me are going to beat Machop," Tyson proclaimed, which shocked the Big Eater Pokemon.
"How do you know that I'm capable of even battling?" Munchlax questioned the golden haired boy. Tyson smirked as he crossed his arms.
"Cause you got me to help you. Tomorrow, we're going to end this," Tyson vowed as Frogadier nodded. Munchlax looked astonished as he felt a sense of wonder in his heart.

"Here you go! Eat up!" Selene exclaimed as all the Pokemon started to chow down. Machop and his group walked over to an eating Munchlax.
"How's it going fatso?" the fighting type asked. His duo chuckled at his question, which made Munchlax fake a smile.
"Good," was all the Big Eater replied as Frogadier walked over.
"What do you say about giving us some of your food?" Machop inquired.
"Why should I?" Munchlax asked back, which made Machop's grin turn into a straight face.
"You need to cut off some of the weight anyway," Machop shot back. "Think of this as a favor."
"Leave the Pokemon be," Frogadier commanded. Machop backed up and chuckled at the same time.
"Whoa! Who do you think you are?" Machop inquired.
"My name is Frogadier. And you need leave Munchlax be."
"What are you going to do if I don't?" Machop asked, which drew oohs from his lackeys.
"Let me Frogadier," Munchlax said as he stepped between the water and fighting types.
"You? You could barely walk 5 inches!" the Superpower Pokemon announced. His followers laughed their hearts out as multiple Pokemon moved closer to trio.
"Let's battle to prove my strength Machop!" the normal type exclaimed. "If I win, you stop bullying me! If I lose, I do whatever you want." Munchlax pointed his finger at Machop. The fighting type laughed as he cracked his knuckles.
"Let's start then!" Machop stated the spectators gave the battlers space. Tyson rushed over to Munchlax and pulled out his Pokedex.
"Alright Munchlax! Let's Do This!" Tyson shouted as the fighting type got in a fighting stance. Skitty ran to the middle as she wagged her tail in excitement.
"This will be a battle between Munchlax and Machop! Begin!" she exclaimed as she ran off the field.
"I only need one move and that's Karate Chop!" Machop shouted as he dashed forward.
"Block that with Defense Curl!" Tyson ordered as Munchlax glowed white as Machop's hand was stopped by the normal type's strong belly.
"Of course your fat self could block an attack!" Machop joked as he made himself chuckle. "Take this! Feel my Low Sweep!"
Machop landed on the floor and spun in a circle. Eventually, he hit Munchlax and caused him to fall flat on his face.
"Get up and use Tackle!" Tyson instructed as the Big Eater picked himself up and lunged forward. His opponent smirked as he jumped into the air.
"Too slow chubbs! Take another Karate Chop!" Machop extended his hand and started to descend down. Munchlax looked up in fear as Tyson pushed his arm up.
"Block him with Protect!" Munchlax nodded and pushed his arms forward. A clear bubble field was created and stopped Machop in his tracks. The Superpower Pokemon was thrown back and had an agitated look on his face.
"All you can do is block! Try fighting for a chance!" Machop shouted. His followers began to cheer as Munchlax lowered his head.
"Don't listen to them Munchlax!" Alexis yelled. She and Bolt ran to the crowd and stood.
"You got this far buddy! Don't let this punk stop you!" Bolt exclaimed as he gave the normal type a thumbs up.
"Munchlax, can you still go on?" Tyson asked. Munchlax then switched his gaze to the golden haired teen.
"Let's bring this home Tyson!" Munchlax echoed as Machop chuckled once more at the Big Eater Pokemon.
"You fool! If you want to be humiliated, fine by me! Take another Karate Chop!" the fighting type raced forward, yet again. Munchlax and Tyson grinned as Tyson flipped his hat back.
"Metronome!" Munchlax waved his fingers as a large pink ball appeared in front of him. It ascended slowly and radiated a pink aura that caused Alexis to name the move.
"That's Moonblast!" she said, shocked that out of all the moves, it would've been a super effective one.
The sphere shot towards the incoming Machop as he jumped away just in time to avoid the ball. However, the after effect sent Machop flying as he looked up to see Munchlax hovering above him.
"It's my turn to distribute the hurt! Focus Punch!" Munchlax pushed his arm that glowed blue forward as it collided with Machop's stomach. The impact caused the fighting type to lay there, unconscious.
"Machop is unable to battle, the victor is Munchlax!" Skitty stated as she danced around. The crowd of Pokemon cheered, excluding Bunnelby and Poochyena. The Pokemon gathered around Munchlax patted him on the back. Tyson stood from the side and smiled.

"Are you sure you guys don't need anything else?" Jeffrey asked the trio. The teens shook their head as Selene walked forward.
"It's been great having you all around," the old woman said as Tyson and Bolt rubbed the back of their heads.
"The pleasure's been ours," Alexis responded as Fennekin barked at her trainer's answer. "Now we have to get going to Cyllage City."
"WAIT!" a voice shouted as the group saw a familiar chubby Pokemon jog towards them. "Tyson, I want to come along on your journey!"
"Really Munchlax? Don't you need to stay here?" Tyson questioned as Selene handed the boy a Poke Ball.
"That's Munchlax's Poke Ball. Take good care of him Tyson," Selene said as Tyson took the capsule.
"Also Tyson!" Jeffrey called out. "On this Route, there is something called the Battle Chateau. I think you would have fun there!" he stated as Tyson's eyes beamed with excitement.
"Let's get there right now! Follow me guys!" he yelled as he hurried forward.
"Is he always like this?" Munchlax asked Frogadier, who nodded at the answer.
"Always," was the frog's response as they played catch up.
