Link's Pov: I was sitting on Courtney's shoulder as we entered a forest of some sort, I could see a bunch of bug type Pokemon on trees, in grass and hanging upside down on trees, then I turned around and I saw Arua sitting on Psy's head,
"hey Courtney, thanks for helping us with those two trainers back their, I really appreciate the help" Psy said as he smiled at Courtney,
"you're welcome Psy, besides I can't just sit by and let them say Pokemon are weak because all Pokemon are powerful in their own way, no matter how difficult the battles may be or how long it takes to prove that all Pokemon are powerful" Courtney said as she kept walking "from the smallest seed of a flower is just the beginning of something beautiful that shall grow in life slowly but soon that seed becomes something amazing, it's just like Pokemon and people, we slowly grow until something happens",
"when you say it like that, I guess you can say people and Pokemon are the same" Psy said as he was walking with Mage, Marionette and Lucina beside him and after going deeper in the forest, Courtney helped a Flechling and then we stopped.
Courtney Pov: as we were walking I could hear some people in the distance so we headed in the direction of the noise and to my surprise I saw Crimson's trainer using a Arcanine battling against a girl taller then me, short light brown hair, blue eyes, she wore a white dress with the part covering her belly as a light yellow along with the string holding her dress up, the yellow pars of her dress had dark yellow music notes, white slip on shoes, a Meloetta shaped bow on the dress with a Keystone inside, a brown bag that went over her shoulder and she wore yellow headphones with white flowers, she was using a cosplay Pikachu in the pop star costume and as I looked closer I noticed it was one of my friends from Hoenn, it was Natalia Hikari, then I saw that Crimson's trainer won,
"your Pikachu is so weak and fragile in that costume, it make her look like a total waste of time training her up, she can't even evolve into Raichu" he said as Natalia gave Pikachu a Oran berry,
"well at least my trainer isn't some snobby little brat that likes to rant to people about how they should train their Pokemon along with that ego you probably got from a Magickarp" Natalia said as Pikachu finished eating the berry,
"oh well see ya later darling" he said then the funniest thing ever happened,
"Pikachu quick use nuzzle" Natalia said and after Pikachu used nuzzle, Crimson's trainers hair turned into a brown Afro and Arcanine was just laughing at his trainer along with Natalia and Pikachu,
"well would you look at that a wild Buffolant appeared!" Natalia said while laughing and Arcanine and his trainer left and after they where long gone me and Psy came out of the bushes and I decided to say hello to a great friend of mine,
"Natalia it's so great to see you and Pikachu again but I thought you were doing Pokemon Contest Spectaculars back in Hoenn, so why are you and Pikachu here in Kalos?" I asked as Pikachu went to catch up with my Pokemon,
"Courtney hey how's it's going? Um...who's this" Natalia asked,
"I'm Psy, these are my Pokemon Mage, Lucina, Marionette and Aura, it's nice to meet you" Psy said with a welcoming smile,
"it's nice to meet you too Psy and the reason why I'm here well you see I come to Kalos for the Pokemon Showcase, it's kind of like the contests back in Hoenn we used to do but instead the showcases is where their are certain categories that you and your Pokemon of choice help each other out to win keys and that's the different" Natalia said and then a Pokemon of Natalia's came out of it's Pokeball and it reviled itself as Meloetta,
"Meloetta-Mel" said Meloetta as she flew up to me and gave me a hug,
"it's good to see you too Meloetta, hey Natalia where are your other Pokemon?" I asked as Link climbed on my head and sat down on my head,
"your Father was kind enough to look after a few of them at his Pokemon Ranch, while I traveled over to Kalos and your little sister told me to give you this" Natalia said as she handed me a letter "and also another shiny my goodness Courtney, does this one have a nickname?",
"this is Link he hatched from an egg a few days ago" I said as link waved at Natalia,
"that's neat! We'll go on read it" Natalia said as I opened the letter,
"Dear Courtney, Me and Dad miss you and Mum, we hope you're having a great time in Kalos and I hope you go in the Pokemon Showcase, all your Pokemon miss you and we saw a bunch of bird Pokemon fly over the Ranch the other day -Harmony, Courtney it's me your Father, we all really miss especially Leafian the Chikorita, Fern the Bulbasaur, Glaceon and all the other Eeveelutions really miss you a lot, we can't wait for you two to come home with all your Pokemon friends, Signed Harmony and your Father" I read out loud and there was a picture of all my Pokemon with Harmony and my Father in the one picture,
"oh and guess what I got off your Father Courtney" Natalia said all excited,
"what did he give you Natalia?" I asked curiously, then Natalia pulled out a Pokemon Egg from her bag and it was glowing quite a bit,
"he gave me this Pokemon Egg and he said by the time I get to Santalune or Luminous City it should hatch, he didn't say what Pokemon it was but that's okay because it's a surprise" Natalia answered,
"maybe if your lucky it might be a shiny" I said then I saw a Riolu beside Natalia's leg, I guess she must have caught it while I was away,
"oh I almost forgot, this is Riolu, I caught her while you were gone" Natalia said as the egg started to glow even more,
"look the egg is gonna hatch at any minute, we should get through this forest and into Santalune City to the Pokemon Center so nurse joy can take a look at it and fast!" Psy said as we started to run and so we could get there faster Psy and I had Aria and Mage use Psychic to help us get past some of the thick parts of the forest and Mage's Confuse Ray on the wild bug pokemon that were trying to attack us on the way.
{After Getting Out Of The Forest Onto Route 3}
Natalia's Pov: the egg is finally going to hatch and I can't wait to see what Pokemon it will be, as we arrived in Santalune City, we went to the Pokemon Center and gave the egg and our pokemon to Nurse Joy but Courtney's Ralts stayed with her and I'm guessing because he hasn't been to a Pokemon Center before, then Nurse Joy came out with the egg and I walked up to the front desk,
"it's a good thing you brought the egg here, the eggs all healthy and it's about to hatch" nurse joy said as she handed me the egg back and I sat down next to Courtney and then the egg started to hatch, then there was a flash of light and to my surprise it was a shiny female Torchic,
"see didn't I tell you might get a shiny" Courtney said as Link fell fast asleep in Courtney's lap,
"Tor-Torchic!" Torchic said happily as she saw Natalia as her trainer,
"I'll be back, I'm just going for a walk" Psy said as he walked out the doors of the Pokemon Center and into the city.
Psy's Pov: (I don't understand why he was in Santalune forest and why he battle Natalia, if he wants Courtney's ability to activate then how is he going to trigger it) I thought as my head started to hurt and that can only mean one thing he's here, I turned around and I saw someone I regret to ever call them my brother standing in front of the fountain,
"hello Psy" said my former brother Charon with a red cape on,
"Charon what are you doing here! You have no use of the two until they have their ability activates" I asked furiously
"well you'll see soon Psy, besides you can't protect them forever...don't worry I knew you saw the battle between me and little miss Pikachu lady had and don't act like I don't know because I know your trying to protect Xerneas's chosen one along with Meloetta's chosen one too, just because you were chosen by Arceus and not me doesn't mean I won't hesitate to destroy anything in my way...until we meet again...brother" said Charon the one I hate to call my brother disappeared in the darkness but little did I know he way closer then I thought,
"Psy there you are, were staying at the Pokemon Center tonight and dinner is made if you'd like some" Courtney said as she walked up to me with Epona beside her and then my head began to hurt but this time even more than before but I could see things, they were like vision of either the past or future, I saw Courtney and Natalia both battle the gym here in Santalune city, we went to Luminous City, Charon appeared and then there's a loud bang and an explosion and that's it,
"Psy! Psy! Psy are you okay? Please answer me" Courtney said as Epona tried to see what's wrong,
"s-sorry just a headache that's all" I said lying because the time I've spent around her and Natalia is that they help anyone they can including Pokemon "come on lets get going", then we walked away and I couldn't help be wonder what the vision was a past event or future but then again I didn't see any badges in her bag considering I had to grab her a Oran berry to help a little Flechling that was in the forest, I couldn't stop thinking about it last night.
{The Next Morning 8:30am}
Aria's Pov: after we left the Pokemon Center, Natalia and Courtney decided to challenge the gym leader before heading over to Luminous city, as we walked in the Gym there was all sort of portraits of different bug Pokemon, some from Hoenn, Kanto and more, we walked further in and we made our to a battle field and on the other side of the field was a girl with short sandy blonde hair, with a Surskit then she turned around and saw us,
"Hello and welcome go the Santalune city gym! I'm Viola the gym leader, which one will be the challenger of my bug type gym?" she said all happy,
"us two would like to challenge you Viola" Natalia said as she grabbed a Pokeball from her bag,
"I have two challengers, well in that case let's have a double battle, if you both win you get badges for both of you, so how about it?" Viola said grabbing a Pokeball too,
"sure let's do this Natalia" Courtney said as she decided to use me in battle as Natalia used Riolu and the battle commence.
Natalia's Pov: I threw Riolu's Pokeball as Aria walked onto the field,
"go Surkit and Vivillon!" Viola said as a her Pokemon came on the field, Courtney had Aria used Psychic on Vivillon, while Riolu used Sword Dance to up her attack, Viola's Surskit Bubble as it hit both Aria and Riolu, then Vivillon used Infestation on Aria,
"Aria use Draining Kiss on Surskit" Courtney said due to Aria getting low on health,
"now Riolu use Force Palm on Vivillon" I said as Riolu got a critical hit on Vivillon and Viola's Vivillon fainted, Surskit used Aqua Jet while Riolu then used Quick Attack to keep up with Surskit then Aria used Magical Leaf to defeat Surskit,
"we did it, great job Aria and Riolu" Courtney said as Aria ran up to Courtney and gave here a hug while Riolu did a little victory dance,
"great job you two and here are your Gym Badges" Viola said as she had Surskit and Vivillon return and she gave us the Bug Badge, after we left the gym we went to the Pokemon Center to heal everyone then we made our way to Route 4.
