Stories of a lifetime

Pt.2

The beginning of a long journey

Moderator: "Hello and welcome back to our show_Stories of a lifetime_. Today we gonna continue the story of Adrian, or rather he will continue his story, so welcome back Adrian."

Adrian: "Hiya! It's good to be back."

Moderator: "Now then. Last time you told us about your tenth birthday, on which you gained your first Pokémon Absol."

Yuki *angrily*: "Absol Sol!"

Moderator: "Sorry. Off course I meant, on which your father gave you Yuki as present. Erh... by the way do she really has to be here... out of her Pokeball...?"

Adrian: "Yes she has, as I told you last time..."

Moderator: "Off course... you never force Yuki into her Pokeball unnecessarily... But let's continue. He told us about his tenth birthday, where he gained his first Pokémon, about her sister which left the city with fifteen years and the Skitty he gave her. A few months after this he met Riley, his childhood hero and helped him freeing his Lucario, by putting Yuki on the line. After this first adventure he was trained by Riley for the following two years and then gained a Riolu egg on the day before he left."

Adrian: "Exactly. I continue where we stopped last time than, right?"

Moderator: "Please, go on. The stage is yours."

Adrian: "Alright, so one day after Riley gave me the Riolu egg I was about to leaf Canalave City, but my mother was off a different opinion..."

"Do you have enough under ware with you", mother asked me likely the tenth time.

"Yes mum..."

"And did you remember to take some extra clothes with you", she continued.

"Yes mum", I answered patiently, but bugged and Yuki yawned, lying in the corner of our lobby, waiting for my mother to stop asking senseless questions, so we could leave.

"And did you remember to wrap enough food for you, Yuki and the Riolu?"

"Yes mum! We will be just fine and I'm sure the egg wont hedge before arriving at Jubilife City", I assured her.

"Oh my little baby", she suddelny shouted out and closed me in her arms, with tears in her eyes.

"You became such a fine man. Just like your father", she told me crying.

"Mother! I'm fifteen years old now. I'm gonna be alright!"

"Yes... For sure and you have Yuki as well... Protecting you", she said getting a hold of herself again.

"But, wait! I've got something for you; you will like it for sure", she said, seeming pretty confident of herself.

As she returned she had a set off new clothes in her arms.

"Here you go! Now get out of these old, dirty tatters."

I did as she said and as I returned I told her: "Their awesome. Thank you mum."

Yuki took a look at me and seemed pretty excited as well. Mother had bought me a pair of new black trousers with white detailing, a black tee and a white sleeveless jacket with black seams. She had bought me a long-sleeved black jacket as well, which I putted in my back, because I actually didn't need it yet.

"Looks pretty good", I reconfirmed again.

"Oh my little son... I will miss you. Don't forget to call me."

"Sure mum. I will call you whenever I reach a Pokémon-Center, telling you about my progress."

"Alright... But now go before I'm gonna change my mind again", she said starting to cry again.

I gave thanks to her again and left as quickly as possible, Yuki close on my heels.

"Sol", Yuki said, gazing in the harbors direction.

"The ferry, what's wrong with it? Wait, don't tell me... Shit!!!"

I had taken a look at my watch and now we started to run as our life was depending on it, because we only had two minutes left. We made it to the ferry just in time, but in the end we were way too exhausted to enjoy our ride.

After arriving at Jubilife Cities harbor we hit the road, planning on a little battle exercise on Route 218. It didn't took us long to find a big rocky area, were we planned on training Yuki's new moves.

"Okay, let's give it another try. Razor Wind!"

Yuki closed her eyes and focused, a few moments later two whirlwinds appeared on her right and left side and her horn started to glow gently.

As the two whirlwinds started to fade away I encouraged her: "Go on Yuki. You did it once before, you have to keep up your focus!"

Yuki shot a glance at me and closed her eyes to regain her focus. It took her a few moments but suddenly the whirlwinds started to get stronger and her horn started to shine in bright silver.

"Absol", she shouted and released a powerful wave of energy which stroked a big rock, destroying it immediately.

I had a wild stare on my face and enfolded Yuki in my arms.

"That was a good one. Let's try it on another one."

So we trained until Yuki was even able to lunch a weaker Razor Wind attack without preparation.

"... Yuki what is this glare supposed to mean?"

"Ab... Sol Absol!"

"What? Now? But its evening already!"

"Sol", she ordered.

"No argument, alright..."

So I started my training, one complete holistic body training after each of my Pokémon's trainings units. After one hour of training my muscles felt numb and I barely manage to finish the last set of push-ups.

"...twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirteen. Are you satisfied now? Yuki. Yuki?"

As I realized Yuki were gone I almost freaked out, but calmed down as Yuki came back with a mouthful of Pecha Berry. She put it down and started to eat. I took one of the pink cardioid Berry and ate it.

"Delicious, where did you found them", I asked curious and as we were finished with our meal Yuki showed me a big Holt of Pecha Berry trees.

Yuki was in the Holts middle, waking her tail excitedly.

Yuki knew I loved those berry and was very happy about finding such a big Holt full of fruit-bearing trees. It was a wonderful present, after a good workout and I was happy as well, but...

"Yuki I really, really appreciate this but I think we better should take our leave..."

"Absol???"

"You know... These berries seem a little too sharp to me."

"Abs...?!"

"I know they aren't sharp... But their owners sure are."

As I finished my comment ten quietly aggressive looking Glameow and a giant Purugly appeared, which had stashed away behind the trees and bushes. The Purugly was almost as tall as Yuki, which was nearly fully grown and 3.6 feet tall.

A few moments past as the Purugly stepped forward and rounded his tail around himself to appear bigger, it obviously was very angry.

"Pur! Pur... Purugly", it shouted angrily.

"What you say? Those are your Holts? I don't think so! This is the naturel world, it belongs to everybody", I declared angrily.

"Pu... Pur, Purugly", it shouted back angrily.

"Oh, so this is your reasoning? As they built Jubilife City they destroyed your old territories. Since those days you and your ancestors had planted, nourished and cherished this Pecha Berry Holt. But why did you wanted to attack us? As Yuki took some of the berries you didn't care some moments ago, yet now you're planning on attacking us?"

"Pur... Purugly", it explained, a bit more reasonable.

"Oh so your ancestors originally slated this garden for a safe place for every Pokémon which has lost its home and for that reason you and your tribe chase off any Human and their Pokémon who came across this place, so they won't destroy it?"

"Pur", Purugly confirmed nodding.

"This may be a noble aim, but is chasing away any Pokémon trainer forcefully really the right thing to do", I asked thought provoking.

"Pu Purugly", it mentioned grounded.

"Hmm... your right. Not every Pokémon trainer is a reasonable person and cares for the nature surrounding him", I agreed.

Suddenly Yuki jumped to her feet's and shouted angrily: "Sol Absol Abs Absol!"

I looked at her surprised, Yuki just had insulted another Pokémon with much more battle experience, because she thought it had affronted me as being an unreasonable Pokémon trainer.

I sited down and beckoned Yuki over to sit down next to me.

As I started petting Yukis fur to soothe her, I explained to the Purugly: "Sorry for her rough words, but she mistook your words. She misread your words, thinking you where insulting me, but to return on the subject, if you wish so I won't tell anybody about this place.

But in return I want you to try on building just a little more confidence into humanity, because not every Trainer is as destructive as you imagine."

"Pur", Purugly agreed, seeming not overly excited about it.

"Sure... You're a Purugly after all. But at least you're gonna try...", I sighted about his promise.

But to agree at a nonviolent solution of a problem, was more as to be expected of a Purugly, one of the pushier Pokémon.

"Oh... Purugly may, I take a few of them with me", I asked properly.

"... Pur! Purugly!!!"

I traced their leaf and sighted, because Purugly said: Sure! But afterwards... Get lost!

So after sneaking out of the forest to avoid the Purugly's and Glameow's shelter to be found Yuki and I headed for Jubilife City's Pokémon center, for a good meal and a long sleep.

At the rising of the sun, I woke up looking at Yuki, lying next to me in one of the Pokémon center guestroom.

I was like hypnotized by her beautiful white furred body, her gently lifting and lowering chest proofing the meaning of my life.

At 9:00 AM, one hour after I woke up myself, I woke Yuki, by gently petting her crest. As she just pushed my hand aside I started to tenderly tickle her Paw pads. Firstly she just twitched repulsing, but after a short time she jumped up and off the bed, to get my tickling hands out of reach.

"Time to get up sweetheart", I said with blandishment.

Yuki turned away upset, blowing a raspberry.

"Hey, don't be mean. Our live within the battle scene finally has started, for real!"

Now Yuki turned back around, her tail lightly shacking in excitement.

After a big bowlful cereals and some Poffin for Yuki I went to a Videophone nearby and called my mother.

"Yes, Millie here? Oh it's you sweetie, how are you two? Did you have a safe ride", mother asked delighted.

"Kind off", I explained.

"How comes? Anything wrong with you? Don't tell me you're out of money already. Your father started his journey with only 1000 Poké and he economized for a whole year!"

"No mum! It's nothing like that", I said rolling my eyes.

"Hey! Young man, I've seen that!"

"Yeah, mum, you were supposed to. But to tell you about our ride, we just barely managed to catch the ferry so we were exhausted and couldn't really enjoy our ride."

"Oh... Pour Guy", she replied giggling.

"Hey! I've heard that", I scolded at her embarrassed.

"You were supposed to", my mother countered, still giggling.

I rolled my eyes again and asked her: "Well, anyway. How are you doing."

A rueful smile was on her face as she answered: "I'm fine. Our whole neighborhood is talking about your little adventure with Riley."

"Really", I asked ashamed and blushed.

"Yeah, for sure. Among the Pokémon you and Riley saved, there were a few owned by some of our neighbors. You're our Neighborhoods hero right now. I'm so proud of you, yet you haven't even faced a gym leader..."

"Mum? Are you crying?!"

"No! I'm not. I'm a grown up, I'm not crying, just got something in my eye", but then she sighted.

"Who I'm trying to fool. To tell the truth, it's so dammed lonely her, since all of you left."

"I think I can produce relief...", I said and replaced the handset, while mother tried to ask about my words meaning.

"This actually wasn't very polite", a nurse, which was friends with my dad, scolded at me.

I didn't answer, but looked at her excited instead.

"What is it?"

"May I ask you a favor?"

"Erh... what favor?"

"Could you please organize an empty Pokeball for me? I will repay you for sure, some day!"

"Erh... well, what do you need it for?"

"I just need it! Please, I can't tell you or otherwise you might tell my mother."

She thought about it for a moment, nodded and brought me a brand new Pokeball, just a few minutes later.

"Here you go! You don't have to repay me, but you won't get a birthday present on my part next year."

"Alright! And please don't tell anything about this to mum."

As she nodded I and Yuki left as quickly as possible.

We were running to the hidden Holt of Purugly, most carefully to don't guide anybody to their secret place, off course.

"Hey Purugly, are you all here?"

A few moments later Purugly and a few Glameow stepped on the hold and Purugly asked, what we wanted, so I explained: "Purugly is there any Glameow in your tribe who would like to live with a human?"

"Pur???"

"It's because of my mother, she seems so lonely... and I didn't tell anybody about your hideout here. So please could you ask around?"

Purugly looked away and a rather young Glameow stepped forth.

"Meow Me Glameow", it told me.

"So you would accompany my mother in exchange for me never returning here???"

"Meow", it nodded.

"Pur... Purugly", Purugly shouted sad eyed all of a sudden.

"Gla", Glameow answered determined

"Pu Pur Purugly", Purugly told me and left sadly.

"So you are her daughter and actually wanted to leave the tribe all along...", I asked surprised.

"Meow. Glameow!"

"Oh you always wanted to live with a nice female trainer, but you're still insisting for me to never return here, for your mother's sake..."

"Gla!"

"Okay... I promise to never return, in case you're making mommy happy again."

She nodded her approval so I throw the Pokeball. It caught the Glameow, waggled and stopped moving.

"Thank you", I mumbled to the pokeball and once more to the now empty seeming Holt and left, determined to never return, as I had promised to Glameow.

After my second successful Pokémon catch I ran back to the Poké and called mother again.

"Millie here! Oh..."

"...Mommy please head to the towns Pokémon center and call again as quickly as possible."

She nodded and got going as quickly as possible, knowing I only titled her mommy if I was up to something.

A few minutes later mother called again and I showed her the Pokeball.

"What's that?"

"It's... Erh, a friend of mine... like that."

"So what are you up to?"

"Yesterday I met a tribe of Glameow and Purugly and today I promised them to never visit their hideout again, in exchange for one of them going to relieve you from your loneliness."

"What you forced that poor little..."

"I didn't force her! She wanted to go on her own free will, because she always wanted to have a peaceful live, with a nice female trainer on her side anyway", I told, putted the ball into the teleporter and send it to my mother.

As the pokeball arrived at Canalave City mother picked up the Pokeball, looked at it for a little while and hang up.

I sighed and went back to my room to pick my things together, but I smiled happily, because Mother always was like that, she never showed someone if she was happy.

After I had packed up my stuff we left the Pokémon center, heading for Professor Rowans place.

As we were passing through Route 202 I suddenly felt a strange power, it was faint but as I focused on it, it felt like a thunderstorm.

"Yuki can you feel this energies too?"

Yuki closed her eyes and focused, but shook her head a few moments later.

"Oh, okay. But we need to check on it after returning from Professor Rowans place."

In case those Energies came from a Pokémon, it surely would make a terrific addition to our team.

A few hours later we met a young Pokémon trainer who approached to us, smiling quietly confident.

"Hey there. You're a beginner as well?"

"Depending on how you look at it. Yuki and I trained since my tenth birthday, but never actually fought in a real battle."

"Oh... We should be even then, because I already won four battles, so you would be number five."

"Is that so? A nice number, but I think you shall be my number one."

The blond guy laughed and went to a nearby battleground, which were build all over Sinnoh, in case some trainer wanted to challenge each other.

As I followed this young stranger I took a closer look at him. He was around my age, maybe a year older and had some really fancy clothing.

"Now then choose your Pokémon", he said.

"I only have Yuki for battle, but..."

"Oh she will do just fine!"

"...but I'm sure she should be able to handle two or three of your Pokémon."

"How dare you! My Pokémon are the best one could possibly purchase."

I rolled my eyes, he was just some poser with rich parents after all. So I sighed and said: "Bring it on!"

He seemed pissed off of my bored ton, so he sent out his trump card from the very beginning, at least I thought it was, because of his convinced smile.

"Go on. Show him your power, Mightyena!"

"Let's teach him a lesson, Yuki."

The other guy smiled deprecating, about me sweeping about Yukis fur, while she left to go to the middle of the arena.

"Oh, how lovely. You might as well kiss her booboo after fighting", he said cavalierly.

"Oh I don't think you will ever scratch Yuki..."

He grunt angrily and commanded: "Mightyena use Shadow Ball."

I expected the worst, but as I watched a ball of shadows slowly formed in front of Mightyena's yaws.

Yuki looked back at me rolling her eyes, as I nodded she released a weaker Razor Wind wave, making the Shadow Ball explode right in front of his muzzle.

"Mightyena", the guy shouted shocked.

"Don't you dare be out cold already. I sent you back to your pathetic woods", he threatened his Mightyena.

His Pokémon barely got up, though it was already on the ledge to unconsciousness.

"Good boy, now use Tackle!"

It ran towards Yuki, but she easily avoided his attack and redirected it with a light shove of her shoulder.

"Use scratch", I commanded Yuki.

Mightyena turned around angrily, trying to hit her again, but Yuki just jumped on his back, leapfrogged over him and scratched his hind legs.

"You! Stop fooling around with me! Mightyena use Double Team, then use Tackle."

"Use Double Team as well", I ordered Yuki.

Mightyena moved in a circle, creating five delusions of itself. As Yuki created twelve doubles all around the arena it stopped the attack, irritated searching for the real one.

"Stupid fur ball! Attack it!"

Mightyena attacked randomly using Bite, but after a few failed attempts I ordered Yuki: "Razor Wind."

She immediately took position on the arenas front, creating two huge whirlwinds on her both sides.

"Now we got her! Use Shadow Ball!"

Mightyena collected energy again and shot it towards Yuki, just to see the attack being deflected, as we had trained Razor Wind to a level on which the Whirlwinds could easily deflect weaker attacks. It desperately shot more Shadow Ball attacks, but all were deflected.

As Yukis Horn shined bright silver she released a full powered Razor Wind wave, hitting Mightyena with full force, dispatching it right outside of the arena.

It started a last desperate effort to get up again, but sunk down unconscious at last.

"Return", Mightyena's Trainer shouted, pulling it back into his pokeball.

"How dare you. I will destroy you! Go on Burney", he called out, sending his real trump card into battle, as I had to learn.

"Monferno!"

"Oh... not good", I commented.

Yuki immediately took an offensive stage, watching the next move of the opponent.

"Let's end this quick... Use Bite, after this Razor Wind", I told Yuki my strategy.

"Burney, use Mach Punch!"

Monferno jumped forward aiming a quick attack right to Yukis face.

"It's fast", I shouted in surprise.

Yuki took the attack, but then quickly bite in Burney's arm and throw it to the ground. Afterwards she lunched a Razor Wind Wave strait to his stomach, got some space between them and created two whirlwinds again.

This time the whirlwinds were weaker because of the heavy attack Yuki took.

"Burney! Use amber!"

He planned on using the whirlwinds to increase the fires power, but to everyone's surprise the opposite occurred.

The two whirlwinds absorbed the flames and Yukis horn began to glow blood red.

"Attack", I shouted out, going for broke.

The deep red energy wave unstoppably shot towards Burney, knocking the apelike Pokémon out within one blow.

I was shocked and looked surprised at the unconscious Monferno.

The young trainer threw an angry glare to me and left immediately, after pulling his Monferno back into his Pokeball.

As he had left I took a look at Yuki, just to see her gasping in pain.

I ran towards Yuki, checking her condition. She had several burnings all over her body, especially on her face, where the energy was concentrated to a great extent.

"Dammed!"

I carefully lifted up Yuki and run to Sandgem Towns Pokémon center. As I arrived at the comparative undersized Care center I noticed it was rather overcrowded and ran to Professor Rowans place instead, hopping some of the assistants could help.

As I arrived at his laboratory I hasty entered, shouting for help.

An earnest older man, with a big white mustache and big white chops came towards me and asked. "Why are you yelling like that?"

"Please. Yuki, she's in pain, you have to help her!"

He took a look at her, went to a big shelf, getting some Berries and came back.

"Here little one, eat those and you will be better soon", he explained and putted some Berries in her mouth.

Yuki contorted her face and swallowed them. Just a few moments later she kept still in my arms, breathing more regularly, so I set her down.

"What was that", I asked curious.

"Rawst Berries. Very effective on burnings. But anyway, why did you made your Pokémon fight so hard?"

"Come again?"

"You just should have accepted the inevitable, instead of forcing your Pokémon to continue fighting. As well as it seems you made your Pokémon fight a way to strong fire type to handle."

"Sol! Abs... Absol", Yuki shouted weekend, but angry.

"What's wrong with it?"

"Her."

"Pardon?"

"Her! She's a female and very angry, because you made a fool out of me."

"But you..."

"No! We actually won! His first Pokémon was a walkover, but as he sent out his fire type we used a Razor Wind attack. He tried to hit us with our own attack, by trying to use the whirlwinds to increase the power of his own attack... But somehow Yukis attack absorbed his Ember and released an unbelievable forceful attack!"

"So it was the blowback of her own attack, which hurt her so badly? I never actually heard something like that... If you really appreciate your Pokémon, never try on this again!"

I was determined to master this move with Yuki, but I planned on waiting until she grew a bit stronger so I said: "Of course! I never would use an attack which will hurt Yuki."

It actually was true, because I wouldn't desperately try to master an uncontrollable move, in case it exposed as a runaway. So I came straight to the point: "Professor Rowan, I wanted to ask you for a Pokédex."

"Oh... I remember now. You called a few days ago..."

"Yeah. Your assistant promised to tell you about my impending visit."

"Alright... just a second."

A few minutes later he returned with a brand new Pokédex. It was the size of a cellphone and had two screens, the upper one was mounted on a hinge so the Pokédex could be concertinaed to safe space.

"Thanks, a lot Prof."

I wanted to leave but the Professor suspended me and gave me five Pokeball.

"What...?"

"Oh, don't be surprised. I give five of these to each new Pokémon trainer visiting me, so they'll have equal initial conditions."

"Oh... in this case, thank you."

"Oh, by the way. You better visit a Pokémon center, because your Absol has some serious burnings on her face, which can't be cured with just a few Rawst Berries."

I nodded and we left, heading for the Pokémon center.

As we arrived half of the visitors were gone and just twelve trainers with injured Pokémon were waiting. I looked at Yuki again and as the burnings didn't cause her pain anymore, we decided to hang on.

A half hour passed until all other trainers were gone and we could ask for some medicine for Yukis burning.

The nurse gave me a small can with burn ointment, telling me to use it twice a day until the burnings were getting better.

We engaged a room and I called Yuki to sit down so I could aid her wounds.

As I applied the ointment carefully, I recognized the degree of her injuries, as the left side of her face was burned. She had a serious burn starting at the low end of her horn, down to her left eye, ending at her nose and in addition severely light burnings surrounding those scar.

On the next days we only went out for a jog in the morning and evening, avoiding any challenging training, so Yukis wounds could heal.

After three days her body was healed and only the burn scar across her left eye remained. I gently stroke the burned skin.

"Absol", she said tearful and turned aside.

"Hey, what's the problem", I asked breathy voiced.

"Ab... Absol!"

"What? Are you kidding me? You're not defaced."

"Bsol!"

"Stop telling bullshit! Because you will always be my beautiful, white furred goddess."

"Absol..."

"No! This scar won't do anything to you! You're the most beautiful being to me, forever."

"Absol!"

"That's my girl", I confirmed.

On a sudden impulse I bend forward, giving a little peck on her scar.

Yuki threw a surprised glare to me and turned away blushing deeply.

As Yuki had accepted the furless stripe in her black furred face I told her about the sensation of mine, a few days ago. She nodded and mentioned she had felt the presence of an electric type.

I nodded and we started searching for the Pokémon, with the presence of lightning and thunder.

After a short while the portentous presence approached. After a few moments of silence, suddenly a 1.7 feet tall Shinx jumped on Yukis back, biting the back of her neck.

Yuki cartwheel smoothly, so the Shinx lost his grip and tried to scratch it. It barely avoided her attacks and started to tackle her.

Yuki could scarcely avoid the attacks so I said: "Use Razor Wind."

Reading my plan with Chishiki, she launched a Razor Wind wave to back away, but instead the Shinx blocked the energy wave with a Spark and tried to attack her again.

Now attacking with one Spark attack after another it tried to exhaust Yuki.

As Yuki avoided the attacks just briefly, I thought about a strategy.

"Off course... its size is its weakness... Yuki, Razor Wind attack!"

Yuki understood and fired a Razor Wind at the top section off a tree, cutting of its top.

She immediately jumped on the resulting platform, using the trees branches as footsteps.

As she reached the platform Yuki started preparing a fully powered Razor Wind attack.

The Shinx looked up to the forming whirlwinds and glanced around. As it couldn't find a way to reach Yuki it simply used Spark at the tree. Shinx attacked the tree once, twice and after a third attack it cracked and fell down.

Yuki and I quickly found a way to take advantage of the falling tree. As the tree continued to fall and Shinx didn't see Yuki she quickly jumped on the trunk, approaching Shinx, hidden by branches.

Shinx searched for Yuki, but did not find the approaching silver glow within the branches.

As Yuki reached Shinx she fired the full powered energy wave had on. The attack catapulted Shinx towards a tree, at full force. It crashed the tree with a bump and fell down to the ground unconscious.

"Go, Pokeball", I shouted and threw a Pokeball.

It entrapped the wild Shinx and lay still after three faint motions.

"Woohoo! The first wild caught Pokémon in favor of our team."

Absol panted exhausted, but was very happy herself.

After our hard-won victory we returned to Sandgem Towns Pokémon center, to cocker up our new colleague.

As Shinx had recovered I released it from her Pokeball to check him out.

Shinx throw an angry glare at me and Yuki, but afterwards he slump to the ground and groaned.

"Hey, what's wrong? Don't think I will set you free, only because of this show..."

Shinx groaned again.

"I won't release you, we caught you fair and square!"

He groaned again and explained: "Shi... Shin Shinx!"

"What? You would have come with me, in case I managed to catch you... But you didn't expect us to win... and yet now your tribe is doomed?"

"Shin... Shinx Shin..."

"You were the last protector of your tribe? Your tribe gonna lose their territory, on a tribe of Zigzagoon, in case you don't return... well then let them have your territory!"

"Shinx?"

"I know a safe place for your tribe!"

"Shinx", it asked happily.

"Yeah. It's a little Holt near Route 218. I can tell your tribes elder how to find it, but I can't lead you there..."

"Shi?"

"I promised, that's why."

Shinx contemplated and nodded than.

So Shinx leaded us to his tribe, which had a camp on a little clearing.

As we approached a smaller Shinx come up to greet Shinx nose-on-nose.

"Your girlfriend", I asked, recognizing her as a female, because of her shorter mane.

"Shi... Shinx!"

"She's your sister? Hmm... Okay. But let's hurry to tell your Elder about the Holt so we can continue on our journey."

Shinx nodded, leading us to an old Luxray. It was about 4.5 feet tall and her fur had already started to lose its colors.

"Luxray?"

"Hello. My name is Adrian and my new partner here told me you were in trouble?"

"Lux", it confirmed nodding.

"Well, I'd know about a safe place to go for your tribe."

Luxray pricked up her ears curiously.

So I told her about the location of the Holt and let her halfway there.

As we separated I told her about the Glameow-tribes history and Purugly.

"She might look frightening, but she has a compassionated character", I ended my explanation.

After the tribe had left we decided to wait until we got to know about the tribe's future.

A few hours passed until a Glameow and Shinx's sister appeared, telling the two different Pokémon tribes joined forces and decided to live together at the Holt and protect it as one new formed tribe...

"... The Pecha tribe? Well it's strange, but true. Well then, take care."

Glameow and Shinx nodded and after Shinx said goodbye to his sister we took our leaf, heading for Oreburgh City.

Adrian: And this was all the stuff which happened within the time after leaving my hometown, till meeting Professor Rowan, until catching Raiden...

Moderator: Alright! Thank you than. And a special thanks to our loyal TV-viewer and stay tuned, for the next episode of_Stories of a lifetime_!
