Pokemon Sword & Shield:The Autistic Trainer

Answering the Call

Martha:What!? No,no,Cody you can't go back to those woods!

Cody:But mama,I have to. It's the only way to stop the Darkest Day.

She grabs onto his shoulders.

Martha:Cody,I can't let you do this! It's too dangerous!

Cody:But Leon won't be able to do this by himself. I can help him along with Hop.

Martha:Cody! I can't let you do this!

Cody:Mama,please! I'm just trying to help!

Martha:What if you don't come back to me?!

The poor mother then breaks down in tears.

Martha:I-I can't afford to lose you,I love you too much.

Cody wells up and hugs his mom.

Cody:Mama... I took a risk when I decided to do this journey. And you protected me when I was bullied by everyone as a kid.

Martha looks into his eyes.

Cody:So it's time that I protect the people I love the most. I want to protect you.

The boy's parents are surprised when he says this.

John:Wow...

Martha:When did you get so brave?

Cody looks at his Pokemon.

Cody:When you have a responsibility of your own...it changes you,I guess.

John nods at this as he knew that better than anyone.

Cody then gives his necklace to Martha.

Cody:Here...In case you get worried while I'm gone.

She takes it and nods.

Martha:Okay...I trust you. I love you so much.

John:Me too...You can do this,son.

Cody nods then turns to his Pokemon.

Cody:Alright,I'm gonna need some of you guy's help.

He then chooses some Pokemon to take with him which were...

Ima,Ferna,Talis,Bracer,Shula and Tiana.

Cody:Zolta,Cassius,Petra,Zego,Klax,Enigma and Meltson.

They all turn to him.

Cody*Spongebob Voice*:Stand guard and protect my parents,I'll be back soon.

They all cry in confirmation.

Cody:Come on,Hop.

He nods and right after Cody grabs his bag and puts on his jacket,the two rush out the door and enter the Slumbering Weald,once again.

Martha and John waves them off.

Martha:Do you think they'll be,okay?

She asks her husband.

John:Our son handled his journey...I'm sure he can handle this. They'll have each other's backs.

The two are now in the forest and are ready to look for the two heroes.

Hop:Ready for this,Cody?

The boy nods with a smile on his face.

Hop:I wonder if we're gonna head into a wall of fog again...

Cody:Not that it's gonna bother us,since we've got strong teams now.

Hop:Righto.

The autistic boy looked around the forest.
