Chapter 6—Takuto is so busy training, but by the time he finishes, he comes across a very special person next to Floccesy Town's entrance. Who could it be?

"Good job you guys…" I mumbled softly. Ace and Zu-Zu both look up at me with a smile. Ace looked up at me a bit concerned, as usual. I soon shrug it off. "Okay Zu-Zu, back in your pokeball…" I say as Ace jumps up on my head. By the time Zu-Zu went back into her pokeball, I felt a chill run up my spine. Someone or something was watching me. I look both directions a bit confused.
"YOU THERE, TRAINER!" Someone called out form above me, making me shriek. "DON'T FEAR ME! MY NAME IS ALDER! IM A TRAINER WITH A KEEN INTREST IN THE WORLD! ONE OF MY GOALS IS TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL IT IS TO WALK TOWARD THE FUTURE TOGETHER WITH POKEMON!" He shouted jumped down from the cliff he was on. I rubbed my ears a bit. I soon felt my face turn red when I felt myself being picked up by the waist.
"The hell?! Put me down sir, please!" I shrieked. I wasn't really a fan of heights, or getting picked up by strangers. Ace is probably laughing at me and my reaction but I didn't care, I just wanted down!
"And you are?" He asked me, completely ignoring what I said.
"T-Takuto…can you plea—" I started but was soon cut off by Alder.
"Hmph! So you're Takuto from Aspertia City!" He said looking at Ace. "Your Snivy is a fine looking Pokemon!"
"Um…can you—"
"But you're exactly a seasoned Trainer yet… Indeed! Ill train ya! Come with me!" He said taking-forcing me to go with him- to Floccesy Town. I just had to accept it now…no matter how much Ace snickers! Well, the first thing I saw at Floccesy Town was a Pokemon Center.
"How are your pokemon doing Takuto?" Alder asked me. "Your Pokemon are always working hard for you, the Trainer, so you should always be kind and treat them like family! My house house is you ahead. Go and stop at the Pokmon Center then meet me there." He said, setting me down-finally!

After a short trip to the Pokemon Center, I headed to Alder's house. I felt a bit weird going to a stranger's house but I quickly forgot about it one I got there.
"Come one, let's start train—Wait, why do you have two Town Maps?" He asked. Oh, god Damnit! I forgot all about Lyon!
"It's for my friend…" I tell him.
"Does this friend have a Tepig by any chance?"
"Yeah… did you see him?"
"I saw him training with his Pokemon in route 20…Well, go give him the map first then!" Alder went forward, pointing down a path. "just follow this path and you'll reach route 20!" He pushed me forward. Ace and I share a glance. I guess we're heading off to Route 20! I just hope I go get picked up again…
