Pokemon: Kalos Adventures

Daniel and his friends were celebrating his victory against his brother with a feast. 
They headed back to the pokecenter, to collect his pokemon. 
Nurse Joy: You're pokemon are healed up, although they had a real tough battle today, I would recommend giving them a rest tomorrow especially Minun and Turtwig. 
Minun and Turtwig jumped into Daniel. 
Daniel: Yeah thanks a bunch Nurse Joy, I think you're right, I think maybe its time to give you guys a rest tomorrow, will you cheer me on in the stands tomorrow?
Minun: Mai
Turtwig: Turtwig! 


That night, Daniel was in the garden with Minun, Turtwig, Cyndaquil, Swampert, Toxicroak and Garchomp. 
Daniel: Man today has been an amazing day! And really guys I owe that all down to you. I'm so glad we all together got to have this rematch with Alix and win, we proved just how strong as a team we are. Guys, thank you so so much.
His team cheered. 
Daniel: I hope you'll all be rooting for me tomorrow!
Again his team cheered.

*Delibird flew down, watching them from a telephone poll, trying to keep his distance*
Finn:....you know she would be worried sick if she caught you out and about like this
Delibird: Bird bird bird!
Finn: Ya, I guess you are right, we need to snoop out our competition
Delibird: Deli *delibird looked at the ground upset*
Finn: Ya.. so much for a rivalry, that would imply we actually have a chance
Delibird: Delibird bird
Finn:..guess you are right, but it's probably for the best we don't interrupt him, besides after this it's not like I'll have to deal with him again, I can be civilized for my sis's last days of fleeting cheering for him
*Delibird had a snark smirk on his face, which Finn caught onto*
Finn:....she wants to travel with him doesn't she?
*Delibird looked at the ground feeling like he was hurt by the comment and feeling bad about bringing it to the surface*
Finn:...Nah..I was the one who suggested we should explore on our own after this..... the whole Rogues thing is not really her battle to face now... and I think it would be for the best to get her out of this mess while I can....
Delibird: Bird....
Finn:.....but..... I am starting to be concerned about their..... relationship, so I am going to ask you something Delibird...
Delibird: Del bird? *the Pokemon looked at Finn confused*
Finn: ....while I am off dealing with the Rogues.... do everything you can to make it so she's happy
Delibird: Delibird! *the Pokemon nodded affirmatively, pointing to himself confidently
Finn: And if he hurts her, make sure you tell me, because I will make him pay *Finn looked at Dan intensely, with an almost murderous intent in his eyes*
*Delibird looked at Finn afraid for moment, before pulling at his pant leg to snap him out of it, Finn shaking his head, calming down a bit*
Finn: Come on now......... let's head back for the night

The crowds gathered for the semi-finals. This first match of the day was Daniel and Joel.
Announcer: So the first semi-finals battle here today will be featuring Daniel from Pallet Town and Joel of Littleroot Town.
Daniel and Joel both faced each other in the battlefield.
Joel: Let’s make today a great battle.
Daniel: You bet I will, no holding back?
Joel: No holding back!
Referee: Begin!
Daniel: Forretress GO!
Joel: Snorlax!
Announcer: Both sides have chosen a stocky powerhouse. It has been determined that Joel gets the first move.
Joel: Snorelax use Fire Punch!
Daniel: Protect! Follow up with Toxic Spikes!
Forretress protected itself from the punch, and then fired spikes around the arena.
Alun: Setting up for the next opponent.
Dawn: One step ahead!
Daniel: Earthquake!
The ground shook rapidly
Joel: Heh! Use Body Slam!
Snorlax jumped into the air, avoiding the attack.
It landed on Forretress, hurting it badly.
Joel: Fire Punch! FIRE PUNCH FIRE PUNCH!
Snorlax’s fists caught a light, it then began swinging at Forretress.
Forretress took damage, and damage again. It was close to collapsing.
Daniel: I actually don’t think we can do much here, he’s got us in a corner, If we use Earthquake, then it’ll jump up to avoid it. Only one thing we can do.
Snorlax went to attack once more.
Daniel: Explosion!
The crowd gasped.
Forretress exploded, letting out a huge explosion, Snorlax getting caught up in it.
The smoke cleared, both pokemon had fainted.
Joel: Cheap shot!
Daniel: Had to be done, you had me backed in a corner.
Alun: Snorlax can be very tough opponents. They can heal and take lots of hits, I think it was a wise move, a sacrifice, but a wise move.
Dawn: Well at least they’re still equal.
 
Announcer: WOAH! Who expected that, both opponents down to 5 pokemon each.
Joel: Up for me its Lucario!
Daniel: Avalugg GO!
Both pokemon came out.
Lucario became poisoned.
Daniel: Avalugg use Avalanche!
A large barrage of snow was flung at Lucario
Joel: Aura Sphere! Extremespeed power up too!
Lucario blasted an Aura Sphere, it then ran at the attack at a high speed it was difficult to see it, it then kicked the blast, sending it further and faster, pounding a hole in the snow and hitting Avalugg in the face.
Lucario was hurt by poison
Avalugg: AVA!
Daniel: Avalugg, use Rapid SP… (no wait, it won’t work, it can’t move like it used to) use Avalanche once more.
Avalugg attacked again.
Joel: Break the iceberg! Use Close Combat!
Lucario cut through the snow, it then landed on Avalugg, and smashed down on its back, sending a crack through it. Avalugg collapsed. KO’d.
Lucario was hurt by the poison
Flannery: I guess Avalugg isn’t getting a win any time soon, poor thing.
Daniel: Avalugg, thank you. Litleo out you come!
Litleo appeared on the field.
Litleo: LIT LEO LEO LEO!
Daniel: Litleo, Wild Charge!
Joel: Extremespeed!
Both pokemon charged at each other, Lucario smashed into Litleo, which knocked Litleo flying back, however Lucario was electrocuted
Daniel: Nice Litleo!
Lucario again took damage from the poison.
Daniel: Lucario is getting weak, use Flamethrower!
Litleo: LIT LEO!
Lucario was covered in flames.
Joel: Lucario use Close Combat!
Lucario punched and kicked into Litleo, who took damage.
Daniel: Litleo!
Litleo went flying backwards.
Lucario took damage from poison.
Daniel: Litleo, we’ll have use Flamethrower!
Lucario took lots of damage, more than normal.
Lucario stood in the field, it then took damage from poison, before falling to the ground.
Alun: That Close Combat lowered Lucario’s defenses. Plus that poison came in handy.
Dawn: See he’s one step ahead, and now they’re even once more
Piplup: Piplup!
Joel: Lucario, thanks mate. Camerupt!
Out came Camerupt.
Joel: Flamethrower!
Daniel: Flamethrower!

The 2 blasts of flames collided with each other.

Delibird: DELIBIRD!
Clare:.....fire vs. fire
Finn: What did he call it? the most unpredictable of all the types?
Clare:...seems about right
Finn: there is no telling who will win this fight

The blasts knocked both pokemon back, but Camerupt more damage after feeling the wrath of poison from the spikes.
Daniel: Litleo? Can you go on?
Litleo nodded.
Flannery: Litleo has sheer determination.
Evan: Dan’s fire types sure are fiery.
Dawn: They’re a type that is not to be messed with.
Alun: That’s true, but Dan has often used Litleo’s Wild Charge as a trump card, but that won’t have any effect with Camerupt being a ground type, I wonder how he’ll win this.
Joel: Use Iron Head!
Camerupt began charging at Litleo.
Daniel: It’s slow, we’ve got time to dodge!
Litleo jumped in the air and then burrowed underground.
Camerupt couldn’t stop, it crashed into the wall, it smashed through the wall, damaging the stand, part of the stand collapsed. The crowds ran out of the way.
Announcer: Ouch! That’s one powerful skull.
Daniel: Attack!
Litleo jumped out from underground, smacking Camerupt.
Daniel: Crunch!
Litleo bit onto Camerupt’s tail.
Camerupt got angry, it then used Eruption.
Flames and rocks blasted out of the top of Camerupt, again, crashing into the crowds.
Daniel: Litleo! Move aside! Dodge!
Litleo jumped out of the way of the falling flaming rocks.
Camerupt took damage from poison
Joel: Camerupt! DON’T TAKE THAT, IRON HEAD!
Once again, Camerupt charged at Litleo.
Daniel: Under again!
Litleo dug underground.
Camerupt once again crashed into the wall on the other side, destroying part of the stadium.
Camerupt took damage from poison
Daniel: Up and get ‘em!
Litleo jumped out once more. Biting Camerupt’s tail. Again, Camerupt got angry, letting out an Eruption.
Litleo jumped on top of the rocks that had landed in the ground.
Litleo: LITLEO!
Evan: Litleo’s on fire!
Dawn: He’s a rock!
Alun: He’s winding it up, and getting it to hurt itself, a bit like a bull fight.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTD9n7FkyVo
Flannery: Its an interesting tactic.
Joel: Camerupt, use Earthquake!
Daniel: Litleo, jump from rock to rock!
The ground shook, breaking up. Litleo jumped on one rock as it crumbled to the ground, jumping on to another, then another.
Joel: What?
Daniel: Use your surroundings in a battle! Not just your moves.
Litleo landed on a rock, it dug its claws in, and then flipped, pulling the rock out of the ground and flinging it at Camerupt, knocking it in the head.
Camerupt took damage from the poison, before falling to the ground.
The earthquake stopped, the battlefield destroyed. Litleo remained proud on top of a rock, whilst Camerupt had fainted.
Joel: Return. Thanks! Barbaracle, its your turn. Clamp it!
Barbaracle clamped onto Litleo with its claws, spraying it with a blast of water.
Litleo: LITLEO!
Litleo tried to break free, Barbaracle attacked again, with a second shot of water, again Litleo tried escaping, but couldn’t
Daniel: Litleo! Litleo! GET OUT OF THERE
Litleo tried to escape, but it couldn’t the grasp of Barbaracle was too much. Litleo fainted, Barbaracle tossed it to the floor.
Barbaracle took damage from poison
Daniel: Litleo!
Daniel picked up Litleo, returing it to its ball.
Daniel: Litleo, that was an awesome fight, you’ve helped me so much, I’m winning this in your honour!
Minun and Turtwig cheered from the stands.
Daniel: I’m never been one for type difference, I believe in pure will power, and my next choice is brewing with it! STARAPTOR!
Staraptor came out, letting out a screech as it flew in the skies.
Dawn: Once again, they’re even.
Alun: It’s too tough to call, Daniel’s setting up nicely, but Joel is doing well at keeping up.
Daniel: Staraptor use Heat Wave!
Flames poured out of Staraptor.
Joel: That move won’t do any damage.
Daniel: Now!
Out of the flames emerged Staraptor, smashing into Barbaracle using Brave Bird!
Staraptor took recall damage.
Daniel: Up close and personal, use Close Combat!
Staraptor began hitting multiple times into Barbaracle.
Barbaracle kneeled down on one knee, weak.
Daniel: FINISH IT! FINAL GAMBIT!
Flannery: What? It’s taking itself out!
Alun: Close Combat lowers it defense, he’s trying to finish off Barbaracle as soon as possible.
Staraptor collided into Barbaracle, both pokemon fainting.
Evan: That was quick!
Dawn: But it means another pokemon down and out, he’s trying his best to knock off the pokemon.
Daniel: Staraptor, you did just as I asked, thank you. Take a nice rest. Tyrantrum GO!
Joel:  Jolteon GO!
Joleton was poisoned.
Daniel: Tyrantrum use Dragon Claw!
Joel: Jolteon use Thunderbolt!
Daniel: That’s barely going to touch us.
The attack did little.
Tyrantrum slashed at Jolteon.
Joel: Hold in there…..just hold on long enough. Use Signal Beam!
Again the attack, hurt Tyrantrum, not doing much.
Daniel: Back against the wall?
Joel: Jolteon use Dig!
Daniel: Earthquake!
Tyrantrum made the ground shake.
Joel: Up quickly.
Jolteon came out, taking lots of damage but just hanging in.
Joel: Now we’re ready. Last Resort!
Jolteon charged at Tyrantrum who wasn’t expecting the attack, it took massive amounts of damage.
Daniel: Tyrantrum!!!!
Tyrantrum hurt its eye badly, making it difficult to see.
Jolteon took one final poison, before collapsing.
Joel: Thank you! Venusaur, your foe is weak. Power Whip!
Tyrantrum couldn’t see the vine very well, it was then struck in the head, it fell to the ground also.
Dawn: There pokemon have been sacrificing themselves.
Alun: They’re both equals, it’s the only way to counter each other out, and it’s by sacrifice. It could go either way.
Daniel: Thank you Tyrantrum.  This is it, Greninja, are you ready!
Greninja came out of its pokeball.
Joel smiled.
Joel: Type advantage. And what’s more.
Joel held a necklace underneath his shirt.
Alex: This is it!
Daniel’s friends turned looking confused at Alex.
Alex: We recently went on a hunt. And look what we found.
Evan: I don’t like the looks of it.
Venusaur began to changes as a beam shot out of Joel’s shirt.
Daniel: NO! It can’t be!
Venusaur changed into Mega Venusaur.
Daniel: So Greninja, don’t be alarmed. This is your first Mega pokemon battle. We’ve got this though, your ability Is going to help us.
Alun: Those poison spikes that helped carry this battle so far, it won’t have any effect here. It’s a battle of pure power here. And Venusaur has a huge advantage now its Mega.
Dawn crossed her fingers and held Piplup close.
Minun sat on Evan’s lap, with determined eyes, whilst Turtwig sat on Alun’s lap, awaiting to see what happens.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7VmOZ4Ppj8
Joel: Power Whip!
The vines lashed out of its body, shooting straight at Greninja!
Daniel: Extrasensory!
Greninja was surrounded by a purple aura, it then shot a beam out of its body, holding the vines in their places, trying to force it back.
Joel: Sludge Bomb!
Greninja was hit, becoming poisoned.
Joel: You’ve been dominating the match with poison, but now here we are, the final straw and its you who is poisoned.
Daniel: Better wrap this up quickly then. Dark Pulse.
Greninja glowed black.
The attack hit Venusaur in the face.
Joel: Hidden Power!
Venusaur shot fire out of its body, it blasted Greninja.
Greninja fought back with Water Pulse, Venusaur cut through it with its vines.
Greninja then disappeared, it reappeared at a fast pace, it then held its fist up, it’s fist began to form ice around it.
Daniel: Ice Punch? You learnt a new move?
Greninja shined a light blue.
It punched Venusaur in the face.
Daniel: Yes! ALRIGHT!
Joel: No no! It’s attacks, they’re so powerful? How?
Daniel: My Greninja, my pal, he’s special, he’s unlocked its special ability, most Greninja have the ability Torrent, but not this one, its got Protean, any move it uses, it becomes that type.
Joel: What?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dinp8IjfQHE
Venusaur was weak.
Greninja had taken damage from the poison.
Both pokemon stared at each other.
Alun: This is it!
Dawn: GRENINJA YOU CAN DO IT
Evan: DAN!!!! PLEASE!
Flannery: You’ve got this!
Alex: JOEL! GO!
Minun, Turtwig and Piplup all cheered.
Daniel: Greninja! Extrasensory!
Joel: Frenzy Plant!
Roots shot out of the ground, destroying the floor of the battlefield, whilst Greninja shot a psychic beam out of its body.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozVXtVxpCP4
Greninja was knocked into the air and flung to the floor.
Venusaur took another blow to the face.
Time froze, as both pokemon stood, staring each other in the face
They both nodded, as they both fell to the floor.
Time slowed down even more.
Daniel watched as Greninja hit the ground, as did Joel as he saw Venusaur hit the ground changing back to it’s original form.
Daniel and Joel: It’s over!
Evan: Who won?
Daniel stood still for a moment, looking over at the stands to see his friends sat cheering for him, even though they weren’t sure if he had won, they were still there, supporting him. He looked back at Greninja and saw the wild Froakie he first met in its place. Then remembered the valiant fight Litleo, Staraptor, Tyranturm and Avalugg faced.
Daniel: My Kalos journey, its all come down to this.
Time returned.
Announcer: AND WE HAVE……A DRAW!
The crowd roared with cheers.
Announcer: This is Kalos league history, as our semi finalists have ended their battle in a draw.
Daniel’s friends remained tense in the stalls, wondering if it would mean Daniel would go onto the finals
Announcer: It has been determined that both trainers are eliminated after the result of a draw, meaning that our next battle in the league shall be our finals. Both Daniel and Joel finish in Third place.
Daniel and Joel: Woah!
Minun and Turtwig jumped out of the stalls and ran over to Daniel.
Daniel kneeled down next to Greninja.
Minun and Turtwig jumped on his shoulders.
Daniel: Greninja, you fought so well then, thank you, you took down a Mega pokemon with a type advantage, how cool.
Evan jumped over the wall, running over to Daniel, Dawn and Flannery followed.
Alun: Guys!
Alun followed.
His friends ran into him, tackling him to show their support.
Announcer: And look at this, it seems someone is pleased with the outcome!
Daniel: Thanks guys!
 
Joel walked over, holding his hand out, he pulled Daniel up off the ground and shook his hand.
Joel: Thanks Dan, that was such a close battle, and I’m pleased with the result, I couldn’t think of a worthier trainer to draw with. And we made it to the top 3.
Daniel: Yeah it was one of my closest battles. Thanks Joel!
 
 
Later that night, the League ended, fireworks shot up into the sky crowning, the new Kalos league winner, Frances.
Daniel and all of his pokemon that fought over the last few days posed for a group photo with Alun, Evan, Flannery and Dawn.
Daniel: That was such a fun night.
 
The gang stayed up celebrating, and as the night came to an end, one question dawned on everyone’s minds.
Dawn: So what happens next for you guys?
Daniel: I. . . uh . . . haven’t really thought about it.
Evan: I don’t want our journey to end.
Alun: It doesn’t have to. Not yet at least.
Flannery: I think it does for me. . .
Daniel: What do you mean?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kRSuizlJmc
Flannery: I’ve spent the last couple of years travelling, watching battles, and preparing myself to become the best gym leader I can be, for years I thought I wasn’t really worthy, but this journey, its opened my eyes, I’ve met some great friends, had my heart broken, but grown so much as an individual. I’m ready for my gym now and ready for my duties.
Alun: It’ll be a shame not to have you around Flannery
Daniel: Yeah, we’ll miss you.
Evan: I don’t want you to go.
Flannery: I’ll miss you guys too. But its something I need to do.
Daniel: Truth be told, I’d quite like a holiday.
Alun: A holiday?
Daniel: Yeah a chance to relax for a little while.
Dawn: You’ve earned it.
Evan: A holiday sounds good
Daniel: I think I’ll head home for a bit, speak to Mum and find out where I could go.
Evan: Can we come with you?
Daniel: Evan of course you can!
Evan: Yay!
Alun: Quite fancy a holiday myself now you mention it.
Daniel: So you’ll come with then?
Alun: Don’t see why not!
Daniel: Dawn?
Dawn: I’d love to, but I’m heading back Kanto to tackle their contests for a little while.

Daniel: That’s great Dawn! So looks like it’s a boys holiday haha!

*Clare and Finn approached the group*
Clare:...Congrats out there, you two did great
Finn: Ya, they say top three, but you both could have been the best the region had to offer, good effort out there Dan, worthy enough to be called my rival
Clare: *rolled her eyes at her brother* in what world are you his rival, you didn't even get to battle him
Finn: that may change someday, but I also didn't say my rival as a Pokemon trainer now did I?
Clare: I guess not
Finn: So don't go making assumptions sis *Finn smirked, feeling he finally got to pull one off on his sister*

The gang celebrated at the League after party, they headed back to their room, and packed their things, for in the morning they would be heading home. 

The Fletchling were chirping in the trees outside in the garden, as the early morning sun shone through the curtains of the hotel room, Daniel arose, looking out at the now almost empty garden, Litleo, Greninja, Tyrantrum and Staraptor were the only remaining pokemon whilst Minun and Turtwig still laid asleep on his bed. The rest of his pokemon had been sent back to where they had come from, after the celebrations last night.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
The alarm clock went off.
Dawn: Oh! Its too early! *rubs eyes*
Piplup: Piplup! 
Evan: Do we have to get up?
Alun: If we want to make the plane ride to Kanto, then yes. 
Flannery: Our last day together. 
The gang got out of bed, and showered and changed, ready for their last journey together. 
They dropped the hotel room key off at reception, which was filled with lots of other trainers. 
Joel and Alex were both in the reception looking at a map. 
Joel: So the ferry for Hoenn leaves in a couple of hours, we've got to get to the port. 
Daniel: Hey guys! Leaving early too?
Alex: Yeah, we're off back home for a bit
Alun: Back to Hoenn then? 
Joel: Ya, we've got to get the ferry from here soon 
Flannery: So you guys are going back to Hoenn too then.
Alex: You guys are too?
Flannery: Nah, just me, its where I'm from. 
Joel: Well, you're welcome to come with us, saves you travelling back home alone. 
Daniel: Hey that's good timing isn't it. 
Flannery: Sure is! 
Joel: We'll be leaving in an hour though.
Flannery: Perfect! Hey actually, I was thinking, Dan, could we have a sparring match, before I go? 
Daniel: Sure of course we can. 
Flannery and Daniel ran outside, the gang followed. 
Flannery: GO Torkoal, Magby! 
Daniel: Minun, Turtwig you're up! 
Flannery: Torkoal, smokescreen, Magby, fire spin! 
Torkoal let out a puff of smoke, making it difficult to see, suddenly, Magby let out a blast of flames, which set the smoke a light!
Daniel: Magnet Rise Minun, and grab Turtwig!
Minun began floating, it lifted up Turtwig, who both avoided the explosion.
Daniel: Turtwig, drop 'em bombs!
Turtwig used Seed Bomb, dropping lots of seeds below, which set off as they hit the ground, damaging Torkoal and Magby. 
Torkoal: TORKOAL!
Magby: MAG! *shines*
Flannery: I knew it! 
Daniel: Little Magby? Its...
Evan: Evolving!!!
Magby evolved into Magmar. 
Magmar: Magmar! Mag! 
Flannery: I thought so, Magby was just about ready to evolve, so that's why I asked you to spar with me.
Daniel: We'll call it our parting gift? 
Flannery: Sounds good to me, Magmar, Fire Punch, Torkoal, Overheat! 
The 2 fire attacks launched at the 2 pokemon.
Daniel: Minun use Thunderbolt on Magmar, Turtwig dodge and use Earth Power!
Minun began electrocuting Magmar, whilst Turtwig dodged Torkoal's attack then made the ground shaking, as part of the ground smashed into their opponents. 
Magmar and Torkoal fainted. 
Daniel: ALRIGHT!
Flannery: Ah, well since you gave me Magmar, I suppose my parting gift to you is a victory! 
Daniel: Thanks Flannery!
Daniel and Flannery shook hands. 
Joel: We should head out to catch that ferry. 
Alex: Ya! 
Daniel: Well its was nice battling you guys. I can't wait for the next time!
Joel and Alex: We're going to win! 
Evan gave Flannery a hug
Evan: I'll miss you!
Flannery: Aww thanks Evan, I'll come and visit. 
Alun: Make sure you do!
Flannery: Of course I will. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmlFDnsT4Zk
Dawn: Take care Flannery
Flannery: And you guys! 
Flannery, Joel and Alex took off, waving goodbye to their friends, in hope that they would be reunited soon. 
Daniel: BYE GUYS!
Evan: SEE YOU SOON!
Alun: Safe journey!
Dawn: Keep Safe! 
Minun: Mai
Turtwig: TURT!
Piplup: Pip!!!
The final 4 stood outside the reception, nearly ready to set off.

Finn: Time to head out...... it's been fun here but it's time to see the world
Clare:....Ya.......ya.....
Finn:...Come on already, let's get going
*The two went to the reception area, bags on their backs, ready to head off themselves*

Daniel: Let's catch that flight then!
Dawn: Wait, isn't that Finn and Clare, we should say bye first!
Alun: True!
Evan: Finn! Clare, we're going now! 
Dawn: It was nice to meet you both, good luck in your journeys.
Alun: Yes, best wishes to you both.
Daniel: We'll have to battle again one day, and Finn we'll have to battle when we next meet.

Finn: You can count on it
Clare: y....ya..... bye for now, have a good trip *she tried to come across as cheerful as she watched them off*

The gang took off, waving goodbye, they travelled about an hour on foot before arriving at a large airport town. 
Announcement: The next flight will be departing shortly, please may all passengers travelling to Kanto board the plane. 
Daniel: Here we go! Home time! 
Dawn: I can't wait to explore Kanto.
Evan: I'm nervous. 
Daniel: There's nothing to worry about, flying is awesome!
Minun: Mai
Turtwig: Twig! 
Alun: I wonder what your mum suggests for a holiday. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOSEVNbfB_w
The plane took off into the skies, down below the gang could see Lumiose City through the window, they could see the tower, towering in the sky, they went up high and high into the clouds.







Several hours later, the gang got off the plane and took off on foot, they finally arrived at a signpost
'Pallet Town' 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EfJ2KaseOM
Daniel: Home sweet home! Follow me guys!
Minun: Mai
Turtwig: Twig! 
Daniel ran down the hill, running into town, followed by his 3 friends and his 2 faithful partner pokemon. 
People greeted him with praise and congrats. 
They arrived at house, at the end of a street.
Daniel: So here we are guys, this is home! 
The front door opened, Daniel's mother stepped out to greet the gang. 
Daniel: Mum!
Gaynor: Welcome home! I guess a massive congratulations is due, and I've made a delicious meal to welcome you back. Good to see you Dawn! And you must be Alun and Evan! 
The gang gave their introductions before sitting down for a meal.
Gaynor: So you fancy going on holiday?
Daniel: Yeah but what would recommend? 
Gaynor: Well, I know Johto is cheap at the moment. 
Daniel: I do love Johto!
Alun: So we'll go there?
Gaynor: Although Hoenn is beautiful this time of year. 
Daniel: Hoenn?. . . Hoenn? Actually, *pulls out mega stone* 
Alun: You've got a mega stone?
Daniel: Yeah Alix gave it to me as we parted, but he said I have a few pokemon who are capable of Mega evolution, he said it would be good to speak to Prof. Birch who is currently researching it. If we go there, we could stop by, and talk to him. 
Alun: This is sounding more like an adventure than a holiday?
Daniel: Well I'm a sucker for adventure, how does that sound guys?
Alun: I'm up for anything.
Evan: I wanna go to Hoenn then! 
Daniel: Then its settled! 
Gaynor: I'll book the tickets now then. 
Daniel: Thanks Mum! 

The next morning, Daniel, Alun, and Evan stood outside the house.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdCQFcQDwCo
Gaynor: You stay safe now, and would it hurt to call every once in a while. 
Daniel: I'll try my best. 
Gaynor: And Prof. Oak said he'll look after Staraptor, Tyrantrum and Avalugg for you. 
Daniel: Great, I'll check up on them when we arrive. 
Dawn: Have a fun trip guys.
Daniel: Thanks Dawn, you make sure you win the Grand Festival, we'll come back and watch it. 
Dawn: Thanks, I'll try my best, I'll look forward to seeing you.
Daniel and Dawn hugged.
Evan: Good luck Dawn
Alun: All the best. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhA4y7K2RwI
Daniel, Alun, Evan, Minun and Turtwig turned to set off to Hoenn, reflecting on their time in the Kalos region. 
As they walked down Route 1, something played on Daniel's mind, he looked at Evan. 
He remembered Alun saying how his parents disappeared, how Birch was concerned when he saw Evan and how they still had not a single trace of them, but why was Birch concerned, where had he seen Evan's face before........

Finn: …I’m sorry Clare
Clare: n…no.. it’s….not like I should have expected anything, we…. Were just a pair of siblings that showed up once in a while, besides, you should be happy, no more talk about him being my future husband, no more dragging you through the ringer with him or anything
Finn:……Clare….I don’t want you to be sad, and unfortunately, it’s clear to me that you are sad, you don’t have to put on a front for me
Clare: *started to well up, holding her brother*
Finn:…you are a great person sis, selfless, confident and energetic and stupidly thoughtful with gifts…. Even if you’re a bit reckless
Clare: Hey! *still crying a bit*
Finn: And just because he doesn’t want to pal around with you, doesn’t mean there aren’t others out there who could use someone like you
Clare: T…thanks *she rubbed one of her eyes, wiping away some of the tears*
Finn: Now…….you need to unwind, maybe you should go see Nona……..
Clare: B…..but it’s been 8 years, and ….. we haven’t had a serious talk since I got my sight back *she tried to fight through the tears to talk*
Finn: you are a completely different person…. It may be a good idea to show each other how much you two have matured, and it would be a great excuse for you to forget about that Dan fellow anyway
Clare: T…that sounds nice
Finn: Then it’s settled, I will get everything set up for you, just go prep for a vacation sis, I can’t let anyone see you crying, you are supposed to be the awesome one
Clare: hey, you are the exception
Finn: Ya, as your brother I see you with your guard down
Clare: What about you?
Finn: I’ll look around for those rogues, start my hunt in Sinnoh, you know that whole thing about space and time Pokemon and what not, if there is any place to go from life and death that’s the closest thing to going up
Clare: Keep in touch?
Finn: Keep in touch


In Rustboro City, Clare was walking the streets with a girl roughly her age, with pitch black hair, with a single dark green streak running through the left side of her hair, with a set of 3 earrings in each of her ears, wearing a set of dark cloths, being a sharp contrast to Clare
Clare: Thanks Nona, I really needed this vacation
Nona: I know, I know, boy troubles
Clare: I…. I never said anything about boy troubles! *Clare turned a bright red, shaking her head in a no motion when she heard that*
Nona: I didn’t just talk to you before I left you know, I kept in contact with your whole family
Clare: Finn…
Nona: Next time though, give me more warning instead of just showing up to a girl’s place you haven’t seen in seven years
Clare: Sorry, I know, I know you didn’t have time to get ready for me
Nona: You aren’t even ready for me my dear, I mean you clearly miss the black, with this whole rotten state of affairs, you didn’t even have time to go clothes shopping and buy something decent before you came to town
Clare: It’s not that bad, it’s still quite manageable
Nona: Clarity? Yo, Unclear you in there? *she snapped her fingers, waving her arms, trying to wake her up* This is a new you… Remember how Rotten this world is suppose to be and how unfair and cheap and lame everything is? Ya, we use to whine so much about that, it’s odd to see you out of that bubble…
Clare: Ya….. sorta dropped that attitude when I got the site back
Nona: Lame, geez, the world doesn’t just stop sucking because you can see again
Clare: true, but I can do something about it now
Nona: What do you mean?
Clare: I don’t think the world is a rotten whole in the ground that sucks the will to live right out of you
Nona: Blasphemy
Clare: But it does have a few problems
Nona: So….?
Clare: So I try to fix them, rather than sit just bad mouthing it
Nona: That a girl, at least you are trying to do something
Clare:…….But
Nona: Ya, no matter how much you do, this world is still going to suck
Clare: You never change Nona…..
Nona: And you are a completely different person, maybe I should get a Swalot and get it to spit in your eyes again to get my old friend back
Clare: Don’t even joke about that!
Nona: Hit a nerve huh? I was just kidding
Clare: 8 years unable to see *Clare shivered*
Nona: Sorry about that
*the pair heard an explosion in the distance*
Clare: Come on, something is going on there, we should go check on it
Nona: But there is the police and stuff to handle those sort of things, we are citizens, really it’s none of our business
Clare: Come on, haven’t you ever wanted to play hero once in your life?
Nona: Never, do I really seem like the type of person who cares about other people’s problem
Clare: No…….
Nona: Then really, can we not deal with it?
Clare:…….I……..I can’t, I can’t sit here and just leave people in suffering
*Clare rushed off to the scene*
Nona: Get back here!
*Nona rushed off after her*
*The pair arrived outside the Devon Corporation HQ, smoke coming from the building*
Clare:..this is bad
Nona: You are an established trainer, this should be a piece of cake
Clare:….. I came here with solely Delibird….
Nona:……Great *she said sarcastically*
Clare: Delibird, let’s go! *Clare sent out her Delibird, charging into the smoking building, Nona following the pair of them*
*The group got to the top floor, where Mr. Stone was being held, by a group of familiar faces*
Jude:…this is what you Mining company dug up? Just this?
*Mega Houndoom was growling at the man, sitting in fear*
Jude: Our informant told us this region had untold power, and all you, the biggest corporation in this region have to show for it is a picture of some rock?
Mr. Stone: I……..I swear that’s all we have on the…..
Clare: Don’t tell him anything Mr.
Jude: …….Didn’t expect to run into you this early….
Clare: Ice Punch!
Kaia: Ice Punch! *Kaia’s Sneasel jumped up, colliding with Delibird, pushing Sneasel back*
Kaia: Sneasel use… *Jude put a hand on her shoulder*
Jude:…….. Braixen I choose you! *Jude sent out his Fire Fox Pokemon*
Clare: Fighting the big man himself
Jude: Fire Spin
Clare: Icy wind! *Both Pokemon launched their attacks, cancelling each other out*
Jude: Psyshock *Braixen holds it’s want out, a blast of Purple energy coming from it and hitting Delibird*
*Delibird gets up*
Clare: Sky Attack!
Jude: Magic Room *Braixen summoned a grid like pattern around the room, covering it in a strange light*
Clare: No, no no
Jude: You rely too much on your items, Now end it!
Dante: Thunderbolt!
Simon: Shadow Ball!
Wilf: Dark Pulse!
Kaia: Ice Beam!
Jude: Flamethrower and Fire Spin!
*Magneton, Dusclops, Mightyena, Sneasel, Houndoom and Braixen all launched their attacks at the same time at Delibird, who was charging up it’s Sky Attack, before it feel over, defeated*
Clare: D…..Delibird
Jude:…. Pathetic, no drive, no ambition… you aren’t the same girl we bested in Kalos, she stood a chance against us
Clare: How dare you talk to me like that
Jude:….. You don’t stand a chance…. We are renegades, on the run, each day could be our last free from the bars, so each and every day I and every one of us give us our all, heck we even had a back up plan in case you managed to beat us set up here, losing is not an option to us, and until you can give it just as much effort as us, you will never hold your own against us
Clare: A…. back up plan?
Jude: ….We have an informant in the region….. and she was to break us out if anything was to happen to us, turns out, this region is a lot more rotten than I gave it credit for, and an old contact of the old boss wanted in
*Clare turned her head to Nona*
Nona: You had to run along… you had to play Ms. Hero….. didn’t you?
Clare: N….Nona
Nona: I have been playing informant for the Rogues dear….. why do you think I moved all across the world to this sun covered region
Clare: M…my sister asked you to……
Nona: Bingo, this world, this life….. it’s rotten and I want out
Clare: Nona, you don’t know what you are talking about
Nona: Oh shut your high horse Clare, if your eyes weren’t a hindrance to it, you would be exactly where I am now a few years ago, how when we grow older we are going to rock this world to it’s very core, to shake things up so they see just how rotten it is? You remember that talk dear? That’s exactly what they are doing, it’s why I want to join
Clare: It’s…. It’s so wrong
Nona: No Clare, it’s you who’s wrong, to turn your back on who you are, because you know deep down this is what you want
Clare: No, No it’s not! There may have been a time where you are right, shaking things up the way you are talking about may have been totally something I wanted to do, but that girl you knew back then? That isn’t me, that was me, and I am not going to go back, not after every wonderful little thing that made me the person I am today instead of the person you are
Jude: Nona, she’s not worth it
Nona:….Fine *Pulls out a Pokeball*
Clare: Y…..you are a trainer too?
Nona: Stay away from us, and let us do our thing Clare, if you know what’s good for you, Vileplume, Sleep Powder *The Flower Pokemon was sent out, putting Clare, Delibird and Mr. Stone to sleep*
Jude:……Let`s get going *Jude returned his Pokemon to their Pokeballs, as did the rest of his squad, and started to leave, as Jude stopped, something catching his eye on the second floor*
Kaia: Shouldn`t we be going?
Jude: In a minute, there is something over there we need *Jude walked over to a machine, a large machine with a Pokeball at the end of it, Jude reached down, picking up the Pokeball*
Kaia: Can we go now?
Jude: …..ya, let’s *Jude and the Rogues rushed off, heading to their next destination*

*A few hours later, after the police came and checked up on Clare and Mr. Stone*
Clare: Ya, Finn….I got where they are?
Finn: How? You were suppose to be on bloody vacation!
Clare: Ya….. turns out Nona……..sorta has been an informant of them for a long time now
Finn: That little…. I will get her for that!
Clare: Hey, I can handle myself
Finn: So..so they were caught?
Clare: Well…no….. not exactly
Finn: I’ll be heading there as soon as I can
Clare: Ya I kind of figured
Finn: And stay out of their way
Clare: Oh no you don’t, I won’t actively look for them, I promised you I would relax for a bit, but there is no way I will run if I see someone in danger
Finn: Fine…..
Clare: And…. It looks like I can’t dwell on being rejected anyway, we have a new start on hunting them down when my little break from all this is over
Finn: Oh no you don’t, this is my mission now!
