‘ ‘ This is pokemon speech and of course people can’t understand it. If it seems like they can its most of the time coincidence or a trainer’s intuition to a pokemon’s feelings
P.S. If any of you noticed my user name it’s not implying anything it’s just to make you think. Hehe I actually thought of it when I was doing a cross word puzzle with a friend and dog was one of the words.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a cool crisp morning when Kadora Hikatu awoke.
The 17-year-old was setting out on her first adventure into the Shinnoh region. Her family had recently moved from Hoenn and now currently lived in Jublife City, where her father had a job designing computer softwhere. This was their 2-time moving and she intended to finally collect enough badges to challenge the pokemon league.
She first started her pokemon adventure in Joto at the age of 12 with a young Eevee as her starter pokemon. She had worked her way up to her fourth badge when they moved for the first time. She was crushed by this, but soon decided to set out on an adventure in the vast region of Hoenn. This time she decided to train her pokemon and explore the region before challenging any gym leader. Life as a trainer in Hoenn was difficult. There was a constant threat of being caught in the crossfire between the opposing gangs of team magma and aqua. So after only one year, and collecting one badge, it was decided that the family should once again move, this time for safety reasons. This is how she ended up living in Shinnoh.
Kadora slowly sat up in bed.
Today was the day that she would make the trip to Sadgem town to be registered as a trainer and receive her new pokedex upgrade.
Kadora climbed out of bed and stretched.
Thinking, she gently raked her fingers through her shoulder length dark blue hair and looked at herself in the mirror. She was actually very average for a 17-year-old (in the pokemon world anyway). She had pale colored skin and a slightly toned body from all the traveling on foot.
(Think of her looking kind of like the girl character in pokemon D/P)
She dressed quickly in her traditional red jacket, black pants, and white shirt before grabbing her backpack and heading down the stairs. Her parents had left for a business trip a few days ago so all she had to do was grab a few extra things before leaving. She grabbed a plastic bag full of food before slipping on her boots and heading out the door.
Even at this hour the town was full of life as people hurried to work and young trainers headed out to test their pokemon before school. She walked slowly through the town admiring it in the morning light. She usually felt more comfortable traveling through the wilderness but this town was actually very nice. As she was leaving town she removed a pokeball from her belt, and with a flash of light her Flairon was now standing by her side.
"Ready for another adventure girl?" Kadora said and ruffled the fluffy white fur on the fox like pokemon.
Flairon! Was her excited response
The trip to Sadgem town was very peaceful, most people and pokemon were still sleeping so there were able to enjoy the scenery in peace. It only took them thirty minuets to reach Sadgem, plenty of time to have a nice breakfast with her pokemon. As she walked around town, a light breeze cane to her attention. It smelled fresh and salty like the sea. She headed down past a large house and a sigh that read "Sadgem town, Town of sand" and much to her surprise there was a large sandy beach completely free of people.
Kadora smiled "Wow it’s beautiful! Isn’t it Flairon?" Flairon barked excitedly and pranced around on the sand. "It’s perfect . . . well what are you waiting for lets go!" Kadora suddenly broke into a run and Flairon quickly followed her.
Other than a few wingulls flying around the beach was empty, and Kadora decided to set up a quick camp in a secluded area behind some large boulders. She spread out a large picnic blanket over the sand and removed three more pokeballs from her belt.
"Kingdra, Skarmory, and Manectric come on out!" she tossed two of the pokeballs into the air and the other toward the sea. With more flashes of light her other pokemon now were out along side of her. "Hi guys! Good to be out?" there were several excited calls before everyone began to go about their usual business. It was the first time since they moved that she was able to have them all out at once so she observed them very carefully.
Skarmory as usual was scouting out the area before spreading its wings and showing off the bright reds that proved its strength and maturity to any pokemon in the area. After he was confident that no other wild pokemon would challenge him, he settled down on the sand to await his meal. Skarmory was always wary and mistrustful of strangers but would do anything protect the ones close to him and really hates to loose. Unlike the other pokemon, he never seemed to engage in any conversation but would always make some kind sound or gesture to get his point across. At 5'07" and 111.3 lbs. he is the second largest pokemon on the team and can be quite intimating to others.
Kingdra on the other hand just took a moment to observe his surroundings before relaxing in the cool water. Kingdra was by far the calmest pokemon in the group and also the strongest. He was a natural born leader and often called in to keep the peace if a squabble broke out between the other pokemon. He is respected by all of the other pokemon and at 5'11" and 335.1 lbs. there’s a lot to respect.
Manectric lay down quietly on the sand much like Skarmory to wait for his food. Manectric is a lot like Skarmory due to the fact that they can both be very stubborn, and this would often lead them butt heads. He is a bit more of a trouble maker than the rest of the group and the most recent member of the team. He took a long time to fully except that he belonged to her team now but seemed to be getting along with everyone better. He still does get into a lot of trouble especially with Skarmory and is not afraid to speak his mind. He is about 4'11" and 88.6 lbs. which makes him the third largest pokemon on the team.
Then there was the sweet and bubbly Flairon. She always seems to have a smile on her face and very eager to meet people and pokemon alike. This demeanor means that she is ideal to welcome pokemon into the group, but it also means that she is more eager to make friends than battle. At 2'11" and only 55.1 lbs. she is the smallest pokemon on the team and the only female, although this never seems to hold her back.
Once Kadora was sure that everyone was still ok with each other, she went about preparing everyone meal and letting the group socialize on their own. She always believed that this was very important in keeping the group close and working together. Flairon was busy greeting her team mates as usual while the others seemed to be off just off doing their thing; nobody was fighting so everything was going great. It’s not like their bad pokemon it’s just that sometimes they don’t get along . . . well two of them in particular.
Flairon bounce over to the waters edge ‘Hi Kingdra! It’s so good to see you again! It seems like forever since we were out at the same time’ Flairon smiled and waited at the water edge.
Kingdra moved in closer to shore to greet the much smaller pokemon ‘Ah Flairon it’s good to see you . . . yes it has been a while since we saw each other. You’re looking well’
Kingdra was always amazed with how fear less this fire type was of a water and dragon type and of almost anyone else for that matter. He had met other fire type pokemon who seemed to have a complete phobia of any water type . . . this is one of the reasons he respected her so much.
‘Hey thanks! You look good too! Isn’t it great that were out traveling again, I really hope that this place is better than that other place.’
‘Right you are Flairon, this place seems calmer than Hoenn . . . it’s good to finally get a chance to relax.’
Flairon nodded and decided to let him do just that. She quickly moved over to where Skarmory and Manectric were setting not to far away from each other, but nether seemed to be interested in the other. She quickly walked over them hoping to bridge the gap that always seemed to form between them.
‘Hi guys! It’s a wonderful day isn’t it!’ she smiled and tried to sound as happy as possible.
No response
‘So what do you think of think of this new place?’
No response
‘Isn’t it good to be out traveling again? Kingdra thinks so . . . ‘her voice died out a little when once again no one seemed in any mood to answer her.
‘Common guys don’t be like that, why don’t you try and enjoy yourselves! We just got to this new place and our master looks so happy here . . . can’t we all get along even for a little while for her’ she looked at them with those big puppy dog eyes with her ears drooping to the ground.
Skarmory nodded slowly, he hated to see Flairon sad even if it’s probably just an act. Moreover she was right, Kadora did look happy. To him she was everything and for her he’d even forget his rivalry with Manectric . . . even if it was just for today.
Manectric sighed ‘You always do that little trick of yours and it always works. You think Skarmory would have caught onto you by now, if he wasn’t so slow that is.’
Skarmory narrowly held back a sharp peck he’d usually give Manectric and instead just ignored him.
Flairon barked ‘Manectric! Don’t be so mean, and it wasn’t a trick!’ she stuck her tongue out at him childishly before turning to Skarmory and smiling ‘That was very good of you Skarmory! It’s good to know some of us can act like adults. ’ she gave Manectric a bit of an evil eye before a big smile.
‘Humph’ was Manectric only reply.
Kadora was putting the finishing touches on the meal; she put her backpack to one side and observed her handy work. "Pokefood, berries and cream, toast, eggs and good old orange juice, a breakfast fit for a king! Not to mention lava cookies tucked away for a special treat. Yup this was going to be a perfect start and almost nothing could go wrong." she always added the almost because she always seemed to have bad luck with these things...
"Ok guys come and get it!" Skarmory was the first to sit by the blanket followed quickly by Manectric while Flairon came to her side. As usual she had the other pokemon wait as Kingdra got his meal first. It was important to keep the hierarchy of the group so none of the other pokemon could start eating until he did, and of course he couldn’t eat until she did. Kingdra didn’t seem to care if the other started without him but it just seemed to help keep everything together. She spread the food in the water just the way he liked it before she walked back to the blanket.
she sat down and Flairon sat down next to her, she picked up her bowl and almost laughed as she saw the intensity in Skarmory eyes as they darted from her to Kingdra just waiting for them to take a bite. Skarmory always had an obsession over food because of his rough past. She suddenly thought back to the events that brought them together.
He grew up in an illegal pokemon breeding facility run by a gang that was known as team rocket. After there initial fall in Kanto and Joto, these places we set up to produce pokemon at an alarming rate to ensure a constant flow of pokemon to help return them to there former glory. Several of these places were set up all around Joto in very remote heavily guarded areas, this made them so hard to find and shut down.
During the attack on the Golden Rod City Radio Tower, the police decided to move in and shut down a small facility on the outskirt of route 42. Most of the rockets were at the tower and the police used this to there full advantage. They moved in and by sheer force of numbers, they quickly overpowered the few rocket grunts that were still there. This was about the time Kadora herself was passing through the area and this is where she came to own Skarmory.
*************************flashback***************
A large column of smoke went high into the air and police had the whole area closed off. She had let her curiosity get the better of her and snuck into the area. She was hiding in a dense patch of forest while trying to get close enough to see what was going on when suddenly she came face to face with a fleeing team rocket member. He looked really bad, his cloths and hair was scorched and he was holding his bleeding left side. He was breathing heavily, and the two just stared at each other for a moment.
Finally Kadora had plucked up enough courage to say something." S...stop right there, or I... I’ll sic my pokemon at you!" she quickly removed a pokeball from her belt and steadied her shaking form.
The rocket grunt looked around frantically, he knew he was too injured to fight and even if he could it would attract too much attention." Please lady let me go... I don’t want to die!" he practly got down on his knees. "Please if they catch me again... take this pokemon as payment!" He threw a charred looking pokeball at her feet without activating it.
Kadora didn’t know what to do, she stood there just looking back and forth between the pokeball and the Rocket grunt. He looked like a young guy, he was probably much like herself one time before he got recruited. She really felt sorry for him, he was going to die if he got caught but look what he was involved with... all the people and pokemon he must have hurt.
She slowly reached for the pokeball on the ground while keeping a weary eye on the grunt. As soon as her fingers touched it she snatched it from the ground and quickly got up.
She slowly wiped some of the smut off the pokeball with her thumb revealing a shiny red surface. She looked from the rocket grunt to the pokeball once more before slowly stepping aside.
He suddenly realized she was letting him go; he got up and without one word bolted as fast as his injured body would let him. The first thing that came to her mind was how lucky that guy was to have met up with someone as sympathetic as herself. She quickly lost sight of him in the thick forest and soon ran away herself before the police found her.
*********************end*of*flashback***********
She suddenly got snapped out of her little flashback by Flairon’s low whine. She looked down to see Flairon looking at her expectantly and right across from her Manectric was giving her a funny look while Skarmory had his head cocked to the side looking rather confused.
She gave a slight smile "sorry" and finally popped the first bite of food in her mouth. Kingdra then took his first bite and the rest dug in.
