A/N: In the first chapter, one of the reviews was by Fire4Heaven warning me about someone named St Elmo's Fire. He's someone that makes something as small as misspelling a word seem like a problem bigger than it actually is, and based on a review i saw by him, yeah, i agree. Also, Fire4Heaven, if you're reading this, thanks for welcoming me to the Pokemon fandom!
"Congratulations!" Lillie said. "Yeah," Ilima responded "you beat your first trial on Melemele island, in fact, the ONLY one!" I didn't know there was only one trial, but, i know there is the grand trial that i have to beat. From what i've heard, Kahuna Hala is a tough opponent, but he (being the first one the trainer has to battle) stands no chance against the ones on later islands. "Hala specializes in fighting types." Ilima said "He'll be hard to beat, why don't you get X Defends, it will help against fighting types." Me, Lillie, and Rockruff left the cave, i was still hyped about getting a Z-Crystal. I went to the Pokemon Center and got some Great Balls, i wanted to catch a Growlithe, witch could be found nearby.
I went to the tall grass, and walked around. Lillie stayed away cause she didn't want to be attacked (which is kind of illogical, nothing's gonna randomly attack her). Eventually, i found one! I threw a Great Ball at it, hoping it would stay. It broke out, and i realized i would have to weaken it. "Rockruff, use bite!" I shouted, i avoided using Rock Throw, because Growlithe is a fire type, and Rock Throw could kill it... I MEAN FAINT, FAINT IT! Rockruff bit Growlith, then i threw another Great Ball. Dirty mind test: *Bump*... *Bump*... *Bump*... that wasn't funny. I caught the Growlithe, witch i had wanted to catch since i started my journey in Unova. I know i talk about my journey in Unova a lot, but it was the best time i've ever had, traveling with Cheren and Bianca, collecting all the badges, beating the league. I still remember getting my Tepig from Professor Juniper, i loved it so much! I had my first battle right then and there, against Bianca.
Oh, i got alittle side-tracked, didn't i? I welcomed Growlithe to the team the same way i welcomed Tepig, by making him some treats, and got him a new toy. Tepig loved the treats i made, but i didn't know if Growlith would. Tepig liked it so much that i made the same treats every day. The special ingredient was sugar, and Leppa Berries. Bianca helped me make the recipe and find the berries. Growlith loved the treats, too. Lillie knitted the toy her self, just like Bianca. After getting used to Tepig, i headed out on my adventure. My first stop was Accumula town, i quickly walked through and headed to Striation city, where i beat my first gym.
Whoops, got side-tracked... again. While training Growlithe, it started to feel like training Tepig, since they were both fire types. I was use to training fire types since i used one for a whole year beating an entire league. It was nice using familiar move's, like Ember. His Intimidate helped out in battle, like Tepigs Blaze. Tepig helped me with way more than just helping me win the league. He helped me realize my fate as a Pokemon master, and learn how to raise a Pokemon.
Okay, i need to stop getting side-tracked! "Hey, Platinum." Lillie said "Are you talking to yourself?" I was so side-tracked, thinking about Unova, that i didn't even realize i was talking out loud. "Oh, uh, no, i wasn't talking. You're just hearing things!" I said. She did that thing parents do to get there kids to talk, she looked at me with a 'really' face. "I was just... thinking about Unova." I said. "Oh, i see." Lillie said "So you miss your friends?" I didn't want her to make fun of me, so i answered, saying "NO!"
"Everyone misses things occasionally," She said "I miss my family back at the Athe... oh, i-i've said too much." I was curious about what she was saying, but i knew she wasn't gonna talk. "Why don't you ever talk about your past?" I asked. She didn't answer, and i was kind of concerned that something was wrong with her, since she never talks about it. She was very stubborn when it came to her past, kind of like... NO! NOT GETTING SIDE TRACKED AGAIN! I left to train Rockruff and Growlithe for a bit longer before i went to bed.
-The End-
A/N: Going back to the topic of St Elmo's Fire, Fire4Heaven said he was better of blocked, as long as his friends who do the same thing, Farla, Talarc, and the reeds of Enki. I do agree with that. He's not helpful, he's not nice, and he probably didn't even read your story. You shouldn't be discourage by him, and the things he corrects don't matter at all. I know, because i've seen reviews by him. I know i said most of this before, but it needs to be addressed. Chapter 4 coming soon.
