"Ok! Let's go get you a Poketch!" Dawn yells, dragging me behind her. I was still amazed that cities can be this large. Lilycove is defiantly smaller.
"We're going to go the trainers school! I want to find a way to beat Perish Song!" Barry shouts, dragging Lucas a different way. Absol follows me. Swellow was somewhere else, I haven't had the chance to return her yet.
"We're here!" Dawn says, letting go of my wrist. People streamed in and out of the large building, at least 7 stories high. Good thing I'm not afraid of heights.
"Ok," I say. We enter the building, and walk to the front desk.
"Hello, Dawn. Did your poketch break again?" the lady at the front counter said. This girl must break her poketch a lot if the lady at the front counter knows her name by heart.
"No, I'm here to get my friend a poketch. She's new to Sinnoh."
"Hi," I say, waving my hand.
"Alright, here you go!" the woman says after Dawn handed her some coupons.
"The just give them for free?" I ask, walking out of the store next to Dawn. I hand put the poketch on my wrist, and it's pretty comfy. I like the poketch. It has a clock, a doodle board, and some other cool apps, including a map. My Pokenav was safely tucked away in my backpack.
"We have to give them coupons. If we don't have them, they aren't free. I normally have them, since my poketch breaks a lot," Dawn responds, tweaking with her poketch.
"Do you break it, or does it crash?"
"Uh...I'm normally the culprit," Dawn laughs. I laugh with her. All these people I've met are really nice.
"So, how do you get back here?"
"I fly with Staraptor," Dawn answers. I accidently bump into someone.
"Hey, watch were you're going!" the man who I bumped into shouts. He looks mad.
"Uh...sorry. We have to go..." Dawn stutters, pulling me up. She grabs my wrist and starts running. I'm pulled behind her.
"What's up with that?" I ask, looking around. That man didn't look that bad. He just needed a tooth brush, really badly.
"Part of Team Chaos. He's evil. They are way eviler than Team Hope, I mean... just... they are evil," Dawn responds, panting. These people are eviler than Team Hope? Well, Team Hope isn't evil, but it should get some attention away from us for a bit.
"Let's just go meet up with the boys at the trainer school," Dawn says. She starts walking, not waiting for a response.
"How long has Team Chaos been around?" I ask.
"About ten years now. They're planning on expanding to other regions. I'm not surprised you haven't heard about them. The leader is..." Dawn stopped when I glanced over at her.
"How do you know so much stuff?" I ask again. We're only a few minutes away from the trainer school now, according to my Poketch.
"My dad is the leader," Dawn whispers. I instantly feel bad for her. I mean, I'm willingly part of Team Hope, but she isn't. People must look down on her, thinking she'll be just like her father. "I hate him. He's evil."
"I used to be friends with someone part of Team Hope," I find myself saying. "He tried to convince me to join, but I didn't."
The truth was, when my brother was 15 and I was 7, the same time I got Absol, he started Team Hope. 8 years ago, Team Hope started. That means Team Chaos has been around longer than us. Wonder why we have the spotlight instead of them.
"Wow," Dawn says. We walk the rest of the distance to the trainer school. The trainer school isn't anything fabulous, just a one story building that doesn't blend in with the rest of the city. Bushes and shrubs are next to the door. The flag of the government, simply red and white, is hanging on a tall pole. We enter the building.
"Hey, what took you so long?" Barry shouts, annoyed. He was staring at a chalkboard.
"Hey, be patient! We were getting her a poketch!" Dawn yells back.
"Haha! I know how to beat perish song! Let's battle, Skylar!" Barry says.
"Sure," I say. Weavile needs more practice, so I'd use him and Absol.
"Let's go! I want to fight!" Houndour shouts, coming out of the pokeball. I sigh. Well, looks like I'm not using Absol.
"That ok, Absol?" I ask.
"Yes. I'll watch," Absol responds.
"Alright! 2 on 2!" Barry says. He holds out a pokeball.
"Shouldn't you 2 go outside. There's a battle field," Lucas says, cutting in. We nod, and go outside. Don't want to exactly destroy the trainer school.
"Go! Weavile!" I shout, tossing a pokeball out. Weavile appears in a flash of white light. He gets in battle stance.
"Go! Crawdaunt!" Barry shouts. So, he decides to try and make my STAB moves not very affective. Smart, but I have a few tricks up my sleave.
"Begin!"
"Weavile, swords dance!" I shout.
"Crawdaunt, use crabhammer!" Barry commands.
While swords surround Weavile, Crawdaunt's claw starts glowing. He brings it down on Weavile.
"Hahaha! Direct hit!" Crawdaunt shouts.
"Ain't over yet," Weavile states. "Just getting warmed up."
"Weavile, go with night slash!"
"Crawdaunt, guillotine!"
Crap. If guillotine hits, it's a knockout for Weavile. Thanks to his speed, Weavile was able to dodge the attack and hit Crawdaunt with night slash. Of course, it wasn't very damaging, but it was boosted by the swords dance.
"Weavile, focus punch!"
"Crawdaunt, waterfall!"
While Weavile tightens his focus, Crawdaunt uses waterfall. And, guess what, it missed!
Weavile goes in with a focus punch, instantly knocking Crawdaunt out. I cheer for him.
"Good job, Weavile!" I chant.
"That was just a lucky shot!" Barry yells.
"Well, you'd be winning if you hit that waterfall," I counter.
"Crawdaunt is unable to battle. Please send out your next pokemon, Barry," Lucas says.
"Fine. Go, Gastrodon!" Barry seethes, sending out his pokemon.
"Begin!"
I was a bit worried about Weavile. He was beyond exhausted, I can tell.
"Don't worry about me. I'll be fine!" Weavile shouts, giving me a nod.
"Gastrodon, Muddy Water!"
"Weavile, jump over it and use ice shard!"
A giant wave of muddy water appears, Gastrodon sitting at the top. Weavile nimbly jumps over it, and launches a powerful ice shard. The waves disperses, leaving Weavile and Gastrodon standing at opposite ends. The attack did little damage.
"Water pulse!"
"Dodge it!"
Unfortunately, Weavile was getting tired. A large water ball came rushing at Weavile. The attack hits, and Weavile fainted.
"Ugh..." Weavile moans.
"Good job, Weavile," I say, returning him.
"Well, as we could see, Weavile is unable to battle," Lucas says. Dawn nods in agreement.
"Houndour, it's your turn!" I chant. Houndour jumps on the field, a determined look in his eyes.
"Yeah, let's kick some butt!" He shouts.
"Ha, I won't let you win! You're a fire type!" Gastrodon yells back.
"Begin!"
"Houndour, Dark pulse!"
"Gastrodon, Water pulse!"
The giant sea slug pokemon sends a pulse of water, while Houndour sends a pulse of darkness. The collide, and the dark pulse wins. Gastrodon is sent flying. He quickly rightens himself.
"Houndour , solar beam!"
"Gastrodon, mud bomb!"
Houndour looks at me like I'm crazy, but does what I say. Gastrodon sends a flying mud bomb in Houndour's direction. Since Houndour has to absorb energy, Gastrodon's attack hits, dealing a lot of damage.
"OW!" Houndour cries. But, the solar beam is done charging.
"FIRE!" I shout. Houndour lets all of his energy out, firing toward Gastrodon. Barry looks shocked. He probably bet on mud bomb finishing Houndour. It's a direct hit; Gastrodon faints.
"Gastrodon is unable to battle! The victory goes to Skylar!" Lucas shouts. I cheer. Barry glumly shakes my hand. I can tell he's mad at something. Probably his loss. Dawn tells me good job, and I return Houndour. We decide to go to the pokemon center.
Houndour just defeated another pokemon when at a disadvantage. Which leads me to think about something, a question to myself.
Why hasn't Houndour evolved yet?
"So the pup was able to beat someone," I hear Swellow say. Hopefully, my human friends don't hear me laugh.
