Episode 290: Sora vs Anabel
About a day have passed since Sora has earned the Feather Badge from Winona, so Sora, Kairi, Lisia, Anabel, Pikachu, Angel, Xipak, and Celeste continue their journey. Along the way, Sora and Kairi are challenged by twin girls into a tag battle.
"We got us quite a cute couple, didn't we little sis?" One of the girls asked.
"We sure have, big sis. It's going to be fun battling them," the other girl said.
"So, how are we doing this?" Sora asked.
"We should make it that we each use just one Pokémon each," the younger twin suggested.
"And whichever team renders the other's Pokémon unable to battle wins," the older twin added.
"Works for me," Kairi said.
"Me too. It'll be good practice for my next Gym battle," Sora said.
"And I do need to work on practicing for my Contest," Kairi said.
"Okay, let's get this over with!" The twins said, each taking out a Premier Ball and threw them.
"I choose you! Bellossom!" Both twins called out. The two Bellossom emerged from inside, ready to battle. Sora and Kairi looked at each other and nodded. Sora and Kairi each took out a Pokéball and threw it.
"Okay, Swellow! Go!" Sora called out.
"I choose you, Altaria!" Kairi called out.
Both Flying-type Pokémon emerged from inside, ready to battle.
"You two can have the first move," Sora said.
"Bellossom! Use Stun Spore!" The twins ordered. The two Bellossom sprinkled Stun Spore from their flowers and sent them over to the Flying-type Pokémon.
"Altaria! Use Safeguard!" Kairi ordered. Altaria made a barrier to block the Bellossom's Stun Spore before it could affect them. "Your turn, Sora!"
"Thanks! Swellow! Use Wing Attack!" Sora ordered. Swellow flew and struck one of the Bellossom on the mark. "Wing Attack again!" Swellow flew and lands another Wing Attack on the other Bellossom, dealing some damage.
"Bellossom! Use Petal Dance!" The twins ordered. The two Bellossom danced around and unleashed a barrage of pink flower petals and they struck Swellow and Altaria on the mark.
"Swellow! Use Aerial Ace!" Sora ordered.
"Altaria! Use Dragon Breath!" Kairi ordered.
Swellow flew around and lands a direct hit with Aerial Ace on one as Altaria spewed a Dragon Breath, hitting the other.
"Use Hyper Beam!" The twins ordered. The two Bellossom fired a Hyper Beam, heading right for the Flying-type Pokémon, hoping it'll do some heavy damage.
"Altaria! Dodge it!" Kairi called out.
"Swellow! Use Double Team!" Sora called out. Swellow made several copies of himself as Altaria manages to avoid the Bellossom's Hyper Beam. "Great job!"
"Altaria! Use Disarming Voice!" Kairi ordered. Altaria unleashed a Disarming Voice and hitting both Bellossom. "Use Aerial Ace!"
"You use Aerial Ace, too, Swellow!" Sora ordered. Swellow and Altaria flew around and darts right at the Bellossom and resulted in a doube knockout.
"Bellossom!" The twins exclaimed.
"Good work, Swellow," Sora said.
"You did wonderfully, Altaria," Kairi said.
The twins called back their Bellossom and walked up to their opponents.
"You're quite a team," the older twin said.
"We saw that when you were working well," the younger twin said. They shook hands with Sora and Kairi, and went their merry way.
Meanwhile, Tabitha is flying in a helicopter with two grunts piloting it. They spotted Shelly standing and waiting. The helicopter lands, and Tabitha steps right out.
"Okay, Shelly, I got your message. What is it?" Tabitha asked.
"Just have a look at this," Shelly said, handing Tabitha her tablet, so Tabitha took it and looked over the information on it. As he looked at the information on the tablet, he saw how it was about Groudon and Kyogre in their Primal Forms, and his mood quickly changed. His face was full of dread. He looked right at her.
"Okay, this has got to be some kind of joke, right? This can't be legit," Tabitha said.
"It's not a joke, Tabitha. It's legit. It turns out that the world that we want and the world that Groudon and Kyogre will create are two different things," Shelly said.
"Maxie never mentioned any of this to any of us!" Tabitha said.
"Archie hasn't either, so it leads me to believe that everything we've been fighting each other for was all for nothing," Shelly said.
"If what you're saying is right, then we have our own problem," Tabitha said.
"Not just us, Tabitha..." Shelly paused. "The whole world is going to have its own problem." Shelly said.
Back with Sora, Kairi, Lisia, Anabel, Pikachu, Angel, Xipak, and Celeste, they were picking some berries as Anabel approached Sora. He spotted Anabel coming to him.
"Hey, Anabel. Something on your mind?" Sora asked.
"I just want you to refresh my memory, because you mentioned that you're also taking part in the Battle Frontier, too, huh?" Anabel asked.
"Yeah, I am. Why bring that up?" Sora asked.
"Well, I thought it should interest you to know that the Battle Tower is just nearby," Anabel said.
"Really? That's good to know. And how exactly do you know about it, Anabel?" Sora asked.
"I might as well just say it. I'm actually a Frontier Brain," Anabel said. Sora almost jumped out of his shoes when she said it.
"You're a Frontier Brain?!" Sora exclaimed in shock. "Why didn't you mention it?"
"Well, it just slipped my mind. Team Aqua didn't exactly make it easy for me to do so. Besides, it's not like that you're a Pokemon League Champion and not mention it," Anabel said. Sora knew she had a point.
"You got me there. I guess we weren't trying to advertise anything. They just have a way of getting out, rather if we want it to or not," Sora said.
"You got it right. And I figured that you have some other secrets you have, but I'm not going to pry or ask you any questions that you shouldn't answer," Anabel said.
"I'm glad you appreciate my privacy," Sora said.
"Not only yours, but also, Kairi's," Anabel said. Sora chuckled nervously, knowing that she figured that he and his girlfriend are Keyblade wielders. "Like I said, I won't pry into your business, but I will change the subject if you like."
"Okay. When we get to the Battle Tower, I plan on giving you everything I've got," Sora said.
"Me too, Sora. Just because we're friends, it doesn't mean I'm going to pull my punches with you," Anabel said.
"I wouldn't want you to, Anabel," Sora said.
"Also, just because I have psychic powers, it doesn't mean I'm going to be reading your thoughts. Besides, it's just more fun not knowing what my opponent has cooking up," Anabel said.
"I feel the same way, Anabel," Sora said. "Let's just promise each other a good hard battle, okay?"
"I promise," Anabel said.
They shook each other's hands, sealing the promise that they will have a fair and square Pokémon battle. Unknown to them, Kairi and Lisia were watching and listening. They were surprised when they heard Anabel is a Frontier Brain.
On the very next morning, Anabel has led Sora, Kairi, Lisia, Pikachu, Angel, Xipak, and Celeste to where the Battle Tower. Along the way, he exchanged Sealeo, Crawdaunt, and Glalie for Dusclops, Ninjask, and Armaldo since Ghost and Bug-types would be good. He would have used Crawdaunt, but he decided to give Anabel a chance since Psychic-type moves have zero effect on Dark-types. They were amazed by the designs of the Battle Tower. Scott stepped out with a smile.
"Ah, Anabel, I was wondering where you were. And you brought Sora and his friends with you," Scott said.
"I met him on the way here, so I thought I would lead him here," Anabel said.
"Very considerate of you, Anabel," Scott said.
"Sora, we can have our battle anytime you're ready, so I'll give you a chance to train for our battle if you want," Anabel said.
"Thanks, Anabel," Sora said.
With that said, Sora had Ninjask, Dusclops, and Armaldo train for the battle against Anabel. Sora trained and trained until he was ready.
"I presume that you're ready, Sora?" Anabel asked.
"Ready as ever," Sora said.
"Glad to hear it," Anabel said.
"You can take her, Sora!" Kairi said.
"Pika, Pika!" Pikachu said.
"Pi!" Xipak said.
"Eevee, vee!" Angel said.
"Vee!" Celeste said.
"We'll root for you!" Lisia said.
With that said, Sora and Anabel have gotten into their position for their battle.
"The battle between the Salon Maiden Anabel and the challenger Sora Ketchum from Pallet Town is about to begin! Each Trainer will be using three Pokémon each! During the battle, only the challenger will be allowed to make substitutions anytime, and the battle will be over when all three of either Trainer's Pokémon is unable to continue to battle! Now, choose your first Pokémon and begin!" The referee announced. Anabel chose her first Pokéball and threw it.
"Go! My friend!" Anabel called out. A female Alakazam emerged from inside, ready to battle. Sora took out a Pokéball and threw it.
"Go! Ninjask!" Sora called out. His Pokéball opened and Ninjask has emerged from inside.
"Ninjask has the advantage in battle since Psychic-type Pokémon are weak against Bug-types," Lisia said.
"True, but Anabel has dealt with Bug-types before," Scott said.
"Alakazam, I should remind you that Sora's a skillful Trainer. He already earned five Frontier Symbols, and six Gym Badges, so he's no ordinary Trainer. I urge you to be careful," Anabel said through her telepathy.
"Ninjask! Use Fury Cutter!" Sora ordered. Ninjask rushes at Alakazam with a Fury Cutter ready.
"And here comes Ninjask with a Fury Cutter! Dodge and use Focus Punch!" Anabel ordered from her telepathy. Alakazam narrowly avoids Ninjask's Fury Cutter and starts to build up energy for her Focus Punch.
"Alakazam just avoided Ninjask's Fury Cutter with Anabel saying anything," Lisia said.
"It's because Anabel's telepathy," Kairi said.
"Oh, I see you ladies got acquainted with Anabel enough to know of her gift. It always caught challengers off guard when they attack without her opening her mouth," Scott said.
"I think we caught a glimpse of that when she was helping Sora with training for his battle against Winona," Lisia pointed out.
"Ninjask! Use X-Scissor!" Sora ordered. Ninjask came at Alakazam by crossing his arms. Alakazam then threw a punch, making them collide with one another, dealing some damage on one another. Sora said in his thoughts, "That was Focus Punch. It didn't just hurt Alakazam, but Ninjask has taken some injuries, too. Gotta be ready for some other surprises she's got." Sora called out. "Use Aerial Ace!" Ninjask flew around and dashed right at Alakazam, dealing some damage.
"Not bad, Sora. Having your Ninjask knowing Aerial Ace is a good plan. But will it be enough?" Anabel asked. Anabel ordered through her telepathy. "Alakazam! Use Psybeam!" Alakazam crossed her two spoons and fired Psybeam.
"Ninjask! Use Double Team!" Sora ordered. Ninjask has several copies of himself and Psybeam phases through one of the copies. "Okay, use Slash!" Ninjask and the copies flew to land a Slash onto the Psi Pokémon, dealing some heavy damage.
"Use Recover!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Alakazam heals herself of her injuries.
"Her Alakazam knows Recover. I knew this was going to be hard, but this is going to be even harder than I thought," Sora said in his thoughts.
"Okay, now, use Focus Punch!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Alakazam begins to build up for another Focus Punch. Remembering that Focus Punch will lose focus when struck, he can have Ninjask strike Alakazam repeatedly with Fury Cutter.
"Okay, Ninjask! Use Fury Cutter!" Sora ordered. Ninjask and the copies flew right at Alakazam and lands a hit onto Alakazam. He had to have Ninjask use it again since Fury Cutter gets stronger each time it hits. "Fury Cutter again!"
"Alakazam! Use Psybeam all around! Hit them all until you find the real one!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Alakazam fired Psybeam all around, hitting all of the copies until the real Ninjask finally was finally found.
"You okay, Ninjask?" Sora asked. The Ninja Pokémon nodded. Sora took out his Pokéball. "Better call you back for right now, just so you can get some rest." He calls Ninjask back and he took out his next Pokéball and threw it. "Okay, Dusclops! You're up!" His Pokéball opened and Dusclops emerged from inside.
"I like the way you think, Sora. Not only you use a Bug-type, but a Ghost-type, too. Let's see if it's going to make a difference," Anabel said. She ordered through her telepathy, "Use Psychic!" Alakazam uses Psychic on the Beckon Pokémon, lifting him up.
"Dusclops! Use Shadow Punch!" Sora ordered. Dusclops sends out a shadowy fist and lands a hit onto Alakazam, making Alakzam let Dusclops go. "Okay, Dusclops! Use Shadow Ball!" Dusclops forms a shadowy ball from his hands and sends it right at Alakazam, dealing some heavy damage.
"Use Recover!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Alakazam managed to recover from her injuries, but not fully.
"Okay, Dusclops! Shadow Ball again, but full power!" Sora ordered. Dusclops began to build up enough energy to launch a much more powerful Shadow Ball, so he sends it right at Alakazam, dealing some damage and resulting in a knockout.
"Alakazam is unable to battle! Dusclops wins!" The referee announced. Anabel calls Alakazam back inside and smiled.
"Thank you, Alakazam. You battled hard, so you've earned a good long rest," Anabel said. She looked right at Sora. "Not bad, Sora. I can see why you're a Pokémon League Champion. But we're just getting started." She took out another Pokéball and threw it. "Go! My friend!" Her Pokéball opened and her Metagross emerged from inside.
"So her next Pokémon is Metagross," Sora said. He took out his Rotom Phone and scanned it.
Metagross, the Iron Leg Pokémon
The evolved form of Metang
Type: Steel/Psychic
Metagross doesn't just have incredible strength, but it also has a superb intellect. It is said that its four brains can just as fast as a super computer.
"Okay, Dusclops, you still game?" Sora asked. Dusclops nodded. "Great!"
"Okay, Metagross, your opponent's a Ghost-type Pokémon, so your Hyper Beam will have zero effect on him. But you won't need Hyper Beam to deal with Dusclops," Anabel said through her telepathy. Metagross nodded.
"Dusclops! Use Shadow Punch!" Sora ordered. Dusclops sends out a Shadow Punch to land a hit on the Iron Leg Pokémon.
"Use Iron Defense!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Metagross's body gave off a metallic glow, making Dusclops's Shadow Punch bounce off. "Now, use Meteor Mash!" Metagross moved in to deliever a Metoer Mash.
"Dodge and use Night Shade!" Sora ordered. Dusclops managed to dodge Metagross's Meteor Mash and unleashed a Night Shade, hitting Metagross, dealing some damage. "Use Ominous Wind!" Dusclops unleashed an Ominous Wind right at Metagross, dealing some damage.
"Are you okay, Metagross?" Anabel asked through her telepathy.
"Gross," Metagross replied.
"Good. I have an idea on how to counter his Dusclops," Anabel said.
"Okay, use Ominous Wind again!" Sora ordered. Dusclops blew another Ominous Wind right at Metagross, but Anabel was ready for it.
"Okay, use Psychic!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Metagross uses Psychic to manipulate the ghostly wind and blew it right back at Dusclops, dealing some heavy damage.
"Look at that! Metagross just used Psychic to deflect Omnious Wind!" Kairi said.
"That's a good defense against Ghost-type Pokémon since they're weak against Ghost-type moves," Lisia said.
"Anabel takes a Pokémon's type weakness and uses it to her advantage," Scott said.
Seeing that Dusclops has taken some damage, so Sora decided to call him back and took out his next Pokéball and threw it.
"Your turn, Armaldo!" Sora called out. His Pokéball and his Armaldo emerged from inside, ready to battle. "Okay, Armaldo! Use X-Scissor!" Armaldo rushes at Megatross with an X-Scissor.
"Use Hyper Beam!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Metagross fired a Hyper Beam right at Armaldo, so the Plate Pokémon was struck hard by Metagross's Hyper Beam. It dealt a small amount of damage due to his type and his armor, so Armaldo was still standing.
"Armaldo! Use Rock Blast!" Sora ordered. Armaldo hurls three rocks giving off a white aura and they head right at Metagross, landing some hits.
"Use Meteor Mash!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Metagross came towards Armaldo to land a hit.
"Use X-Scissor!" Sora ordered. Armaldo crosses his claws and he came at Metagross and collides with one another, one dealing damage on the other. They skid backwards. "Use X-Scissor again!" Armaldo came at Metagross with another X-Scissor.
"Use Iron Defense!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Metagross uses Iron Defense and blocked Armaldo's X-Scissor. "Use Meteor Mash!" Metagross swings its claw at Armaldo, landing a hit. "Use Meteor Mash again!" Metagross swings its claw again.
"Use X-Scissor!" Sora ordered. Armaldo uses X-Scissor again to block Metagross's Meteor Mash, so they held on. The two Pokémon have taken some heavy damage, and they both went down for the count.
"Both Metagross and Armaldo are both unable to battle! This round is a draw!" The referee announced.
"Anabel's down to one while Sora still has two," Lisia said.
"I wonder what she's got up her sleeve," Kairi said.
"Pikachu," Pikachu said.
"Eevee," Angel said.
"Chu," Xipak said.
"Eevee," Celeste said.
Anabel calls back Metagross as Sora called Armaldo back.
"You were awesome, Armaldo. Get some rest," Sora said.
"You battled well, Metagross. Thank you," Anabel said. She then took out her next Pokéball and threw it. "Go! My friend!" Her Pokéball opened and her Espeon emerged from inside, ready to battle. Sora thought for a moment.
"Okay, I could send Dusclops back out, but he's not Dusclops is a slow-moving Pokémon, so it's going to take more than raw power to deal with Espeon, so I'm going to use speed, and Ninjask is the perfect Pokémon for that department," Sora said in his thoughts. He took out Ninjask's Pokéball and threw it. He called out, "Ninjask! Back to action!" His Pokéball opened and Ninjask emerged from inside, ready to battle. "Ninjask! Use Fury Cutter!" Sora ordered. Ninjask flew right at Espeon with a Fury Cutter.
"Espeon! Use Quick Attack to dodge!" Anabel ordered. Espeon uses its speed attack to avoid Ninjask's Fury Cutter.
"Now, use Aerial Ace!" Sora ordered. Ninjask dashed right at Espeon and lands a hit on the Sun Pokémon. "Aerial Ace!" Ninjask lands another hit with Aerial Ace. Ninjask deals damage again and again.
"Ninjask's speed is unparalleled. Use Iron Tail when Ninjask is close enough," Anabel said through her telepathy. Ninjask flew with another right towards Espeon, so it uses Iron Tail on Ninjask just when he was close enough.
"Anabel might try something, so use Double Team!" Sora ordered. Ninjask has made several images of himself to avoid whatever Anabel has cooking up.
"Sora's really not taking any chances with us. Using that Double Team before we could do anything is a clever plan, but it won't be enough. Try to find the real one and then use Zap Cannon as soon as you do," Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon begins to concentrate hard to find the real Ninjask. Once the real one was found, Espeon releases a yellow orb of electricity with a red center in front of its mouth and fires it at Ninjask. It dealt some heavy damage and results in Ninjask being paralyzed. All of the copies vanished.
"That was Zap Cannon," Kairi said.
"And you know it always paralyzes a target once it hits," Scott said.
"Anabel's Espeon was able to find Ninjask without any trouble," Lisia said.
"Ninjask! Use Aerial Ace!" Sora ordered. Ninjask tried to use Aerial Ace, but unable to do so due to his paralysis, so this gives Anabel a chance to finish Ninjask off.
"Okay, Espeon! Use Psychic!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon uses Psychic to lift up Ninjask and send him flying against the wall on Sora's side. Ninjask was taken down.
"Ninjask is unable to battle! Espeon wins!" The referee announced.
"Now both Sora and Anabel are down to one Pokémon each," Lisia said.
"Even with Dusclops having the advantage over Espeon, it won't even matter because of Zap Cannon," Kairi said.
"Maybe. By the way this match is going, it could be anybody's match," Scott said. Sora calls Ninjask back and he smiled.
"You did your best, Ninjask. You've earned yourself a good, long rest," Sora said. He took out Dusclops's Pokéball and threw it. "Okay, Dusclops! Back to action!" His Pokéball opened and Dusclops emerged from inside, ready to battle. "Dusclops, you should be careful. Espeon knows Zap Cannon, so you'll end up being paralyzed once you're hit."
"Clops," Dusclops nodded.
"Use Ominous Wind!" Sora ordered. Dusclops unleashed Ominous Wind right at the Sun Pokémon.
"Use Quick Attack to dodge it!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon uses Quick Attack to dodge Ominous Wind and jumped in the air. "Use Zap Cannon!" Espeon unleashed a Zap Cannon and sent it right at Dusclops.
"Thought she'd pull that. Dusclops! Use Shadow Ball to block it!" Sora ordered. Dusclops uses Shadow Ball to block Espeon's Zap Cannon. "Use Shadow Ball again!" Dusclops uses Shadow Ball once again and sent it right at Espeon.
"Use Iron Tail!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon swings its tail and sent the ball of shadow right up into the air.
"Not bad, Anabel! Try this on for size! Use Night Shade!" Sora ordered. Dusclops unleashed a Night Shade and sent it right at the Sun Pokémon.
"Use Psychic!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon uses Psychic to block Dusclops's Night Shade. Espeon sends it right at Dusclops.
"Use Night Shade!" Sora ordered. Dusclops uses Night Shade to block his own attack being thrown at him. "Use Shadow Punch!" Dusclops uses Shadow Punch and lands a hit onto Espeon. "Shadow Punch again!" Dusclops unleashed another Shadow Punch.
"Use Psychic!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon uses Shadow Punch to block Dusclops's Shadow Punch and sent it right back at him, landing a hit by his own move. "Use Iron Tail!" Espeon jumped and swings its tail and heads right for the Beckon Pokémon.
"Use Ominous Wind!" Sora ordered. Dusclops blew Ominous Wind right at Espeon, blowing the Sun Pokémon back. "Keep using Ominous Wind!" Dusclops kept blowing the ghostly wind, catching Espeon in it.
"Espeon! Are you alright?" Anabel asked through her telepathy.
"Espeon!" Espeon replied.
"Try using Zap Cannon!" Anabel ordered through her telepathy. Espeon unleashed an Zap Cannon, but it misses Dusclops completely.
"Use Shadow Ball!" Sora ordered. Dusclops forms another ball of shadow and sent it right at Espeon, landing a hit. Espeon fell down to the ground very hard, resulting in a knockout.
"Espeon is unable to battle! Dusclops wins! The winner is Sora Ketchum from Pallet Town!" The referee announced. Kairi, Lisia, Pikachu, Angel, Xipak, and Celeste cheered, seeing Sora has won the battle. Anabel called back Espeon and smiled.
"You did your best, Espeon. Good job," Anabel said. She walked up to Sora and his Dusclops. "That was an epic battle, Sora. I was truly impressed. And I can admit, I enjoyed every bit of our battle."
"Yeah, so did I, Anabel. You and your Pokémon were in sync with each other," Sora said.
"I thought the same way. And so, I'm going to give you what you came here for. The Ability Symbol," Anabel said, presenting Sora a gold symbol resembling a dull arrowhead. Sora accepts it.
"Thanks a lot," Sora said.
"No, thank you," Anabel said. Scott approaches Sora.
"Now that you've earned 6 out of 7 Frontier Symbols, that could only mean that you're ready for the final Battle Frontier challenge," Scott said.
"And what's that, Scott?" Sora asked.
"That'll be the Battle Pyramid. But it may be difficult to find," Scott said.
"Why?" Sora asked.
"Well, because the Battle Pyramid is mobile, so tracking it down may not be so easy, but you'll know it when you see it," Scott said.
"Thanks for the info," Sora said.
"What's the Frontier Brain's name, Scott?" Kairi asked.
"That would be the Pyramid King Brandon. He's the toughest Frontier Brain you will ever face, so he has some really powerful Pokémon under his disposal, and I won't tell you what he's got since I don't want to disrespect him," Scott said.
"It's okay, Scott. I think I'd be better off finding out for myself when I battle him," Sora said. Scott smiled.
"That's what I thought you'd say," Scott said, almost chuckling. "Anabel also told me that you'll be heading for Mossdeep City for your seventh Gym battle here in Hoenn, so I thought it'll be a good idea that you focus on that for right now."
"Yeah, that's a good idea," Sora agreed.
After having Ninjask, Dusclops, and Armaldo healed from their injuries in battle, Sora, Kairi, Lisia, Pikachu, Angel, Xipak, and Celeste were preparing to depart for their next destination.
"You sure you can't accompany us a little longer, Anabel? I really enjoyed your company," Lisia said.
"I'm sure, Lisia. Besides, I need to stick around in case another challenger comes around. My duty is the Battle Tower," Anabel said.
"Yeah, you should stay where you're needed. I mean, there's no point in making someone wait for you to come back," Sora said.
"And it might have been a long time, too," Kairi said.
"You're right. Sora, Kairi, I'm wishing the both of you the best of luck," Anabel said.
"Thanks," Sora and Kairi said in unison.
"And I do hope we meet again someday," Anabel said.
"We do, too," Kairi said.
"We should get going. We can reach the nearest town by sunset," Lisia said.
"You're right, we should," Sora said. "Anyway, see ya!"
"You too!" Anabel said.
Sora, Kairi, Lisia, Pikachu, Angel, Xipak, and Celeste said their goodbyes to Anabel as they left for their journey. Anabel waves goodbye to her friends with a smile on her face.
"Sora, Kairi, Roxas, Xion, I'm glad we met each other. You four are lucky to have each other. And I am certain that you'll bring balance to both light and darkness," Anabel said in her thoughts.
Now that Sora has earned his sixth Frontier Symbol, he only needs one more from the Battle Pyramid and challenge the Pyramid King Brandon to a battle. But Sora has a Gym Battle to focus on and another adventure on the way, so stay tuned if you want to know what happens next!
