Chapter Nineteen
Team Training
It was a few days after the incident in Whirlwind Canyon, and the team had tried to put the pieces of the mystery together. But some vital pieces were still missing. Like the identity of Genesect's counterparts. The role of the missing legendary Pokémon. And their own role in all this as well. But, something else needed their attention. The Pokémon Meloetta they had rescued from Genesect.
"We just know that you were meant to be a part of our team," said Keldea.
"I don't know," said Meloetta, "I'm not much of a fighter."
"That doesn't matter," said Keldea, "You don't have to fight if you don't want to."
"Plus, we're going to be doing some special training," said Keldeo, "And you would be a very important part of our team."
"Well, if you really think so," said Meloetta, "I guess I could join your team."
"It's decided then," said Keldea.
"Then I better tell you something important," said Chatot who had just entered the room, "Until you graduate from the guild, you may only take four of your team members with you into dungeons."
"And what about expeditions?" asked Keldea.
"That is a special exception," said Chatot, "On expeditions of more than one day you may take your entire team if necessary."
"Alright, thanks for the heads up, Chatot," said Keldeo.
"And welcome to Wigglytuff's Guild," said Chatot.
"Thank you," said Meloetta, "I am honored to be here."
"Come on guys," shouted Shaymin from the other room, "Virizion and everyone are waiting for us!"
"Come on, let's go," said Keldeo.
All of Team Justice hurried to the open forest clearing where The Swords of Justice and the Rainbow Arch's where waiting.
"You need to learn some stronger moves so you can face any foe," said Raikou, "For Keldeo, Hydro Pump and Focus Blast are the strongest moves you can learn, besides Secret Sword."
"You should also know some evasive moves," said Virizion, "Like Double Team. And Shaymin, you could benefit from a larger move set."
"Latias can do with some good moves too," said Terrakion, "Like Aerial Ace and Psychic."
"Then what are we waiting for?" said Keldeo, "Let's get to it!"
As the other Pokémon were training, Meloetta sat in a nearby tree and watched. She preferred peaceful resolutions to fighting. But, deep inside her, there was something that wanted to fight, but she just wasn't strong enough.
"I'll never be as strong as them," said Meloetta as she watched each of them.
Virizion happened to look over and see her, and decided to have a word with her.
"Are you okay?" asked Virizion.
"Yeah, I'm okay," said Meloetta, "I'm just thinking."
"Mind if I ask what you're thinking?" asked Virizion.
"It's just," said Meloetta, "I just don't think I could ever be as strong as the others."
"You can be," said Virizion "You just have to believe."
Just then a memory brought itself to the front of Virizion's mind. She remembered that Meloetta's had a special song, which could even allow them to change forme!
"You have a special song, don't you?" asked Virizion.
"Yes, I do," said Meloetta, "My Relic Song."
"If I recall, that song can allow you to change forme," said Virizion.
"Yes, but every time I try I can't change," said Meloetta.
"You just have to believe," said Virizion, "You have convinced yourself that you cannot do it. But you can."
"Do you really think so?" asked Meloetta.
"I know so," said Virizion.
"Hey, what's up?" asked Keldeo as the rest of the group was taking a short break.
"I'm going to try something," said Meloetta.
"What?" asked Keldea.
"I'm going to try to change Forme," said Meloetta.
"You can do it," said Virizion, "We all believe in you."
Meloetta calmed herself, and began singing her beautiful Relic Song. But it was different.
"This isn't the same song we heard the past few nights," said Latias.
They watched as Meloetta began to glow, and then, it happened. Her green skin turned orange, and her hair twisted on her head. Her single dress transformed into a four stream tutu. The song ended, and Meloetta had finally achieved her first forme change.
"Wow, this is amazing," said Meloetta.
"How do you feel?" asked Virizion.
"I have more courage and I feel more powerful," said Meloetta.
"So, Meloetta can change forms as well," said Keldea, "That's great."
"Also, I have a different kind of spirit in me," said Meloetta, "A spirit that's ready to fight when I need to. Something I don't have in my other forme."
"That's really good news," said Keldeo, "So you have the courage to fight when you change forme. Good thing to keep in mind."
"Alright then," said Terrakion, "Are you going to come and train with us now?"
"You bet," said Meloetta with plenty of confidence.
So the group got back to training, focused on raising their skills for their next encounter with Genesect and his group.
