"Yuuka! I found a really good hat for myself!" Violet shouted from one of the bazaar stand.
"As you can see, I'm accompanying someone on a shopping spree." Yuuka shrugged and waved at Violet. "So you say you don't have a place to stay?"

"He knows... Bite and rage, I think." Professor Juniper whispered back as the enemy Koffing, fed up with waiting, charged towards Stryke with full-power tackle. Purrloin followed suit with a scratch towards Mincinno, slashing her claws against the chinchilla.

"Well aren't you a little toughie!" The hiker guffawed as he displayed his belt buckle lavished with three Pokeballs hanging by a magnetic hook. "But can you handle my rocky triple showdown? I accept your challenge!"
Soon, excited crowd swarmed around the hiker named Andrew and Sherry. Some were curious, wondering whether the new challenger can defeat the proclaimed Champion of Route 116. Most of the crowd, however, was hoping for hiker Andrew to take the victory like he has always done. Hiker Andrew stretched his arms out for a big wind-up: a completely unnecessary process for a battle, grabbed the first Pokeball from his belt, and yelled: "Go, Geodude!"
A chunk of rock with determined face appeared, flexing its rocky arms as if the rocks were actually muscles.
Geodude Lv: 4

After a while, John eventually made his way into Renamon and his assigned room and closed the door. It was luxurious, or at least to John it was. It was a fairly large room with a simple bed in the corner, next to the window, a chair with a writing desk against the left wall, a nightstand with a lamp next to the bed, and a window on the far wall, giving the occupant a view of Oreburgh City. On the wall opposite to the bed was an entertainment center with a television. On the right wall was a door that led to the restroom. John paid little attention to his surroundings at this point. He just focused on eating and preparing for tomorrow.
The first thing John did as he entered the room was place the bag full of items on the writing desk and disengaged his energy shields. Once that was done, John pulled the emergency lever on his helmet and waited as the hissing of decompression subsided. He then proceeded to remove his helmet and laid it on the writing desk, next to the bag of items. John let out a faint sigh as he then entered the restroom and turned on the lights.
The bathroom was white and plain, just like any other restroom John had seen. There was a sink with a mirror above it, a bathtub with a shower head, and a toilet, all of the requirements needed for it to be considered a restroom. Truth be told, John was tired. John hadn't slept ever since he arrived in this strange world, due to the pokemon that would appear in the wild at night. To temporarily remedy his need for sleep, John walked over to the sink, turned it on, and cupped his armored hands beneath the cold, running water. Once he collected enough water in his hands, he then raised it to his face and wet it. The cold water gave John the energy he needed, easing his grogginess and putting him at ease.
John looked up at himself in the mirror as the water dripped off his face. It had been a long time since John had seen himself in a mirror. He had almost forgotten what he looked like. John gazed at all the scars on his face, each one telling a story. John had gotten most of them when he was only a child, back when he didn't have his armor and when he went through his training. It was brutal, inhumane even, but John wasn't bothered by it. The training prepared him for all he had gone through; Insurrectionists, The Covenant, The Flood, and even the Prometheans. It all seemed so far away now, all of the things he had gone through. His scars were a testament to his life and experiences.
After spending a few minutes looking at himself in the mirror, reminiscing about the past, John walked away from the sink, turned out the lights, and exited the restroom.

As John left to their room, Renamon went outside towards the closest woods. Taking out her pokeball, the fox released her combee "Ok Dia, the first gym is a rock one so we have some disadvantage, but that doesn´t mean we will lose instantly"
"Well, whatps your plan? my attacks aren´t so strong either" Diana said rather defeated
"You are right, but using attacks with good tactics is effective and we got something of advantage, your speed" Renamon pointed out and continued "Those rock types are strong and have good speed too so we will train your abilities, what do you think?"
The combee thought about it and then nodded "Ok, I want to show everyone im a strong pokemon even though Im a bee, let´s do it!" she said with fire on her soul
Both the fox and bee started training while shooting gust attacks to a rather heavy rock making it fly and catch it with another gust attack and so on.

"Yea why? What do you have in mind Yuuka?" Chung asked, completely ignoring Violet except for giving her a small hand wave.
"I mean... I don't want to be a burden or anything... I just want a place where I can sleep for the night instead of the woods."

Sherry examined the small hunk of rock in front of her. While she knew just exactly what the pokemon was, she had a desire to use her new Pokedex on it. She flipped open the red casing and pointed the device at the pokemon, finding that the mere action of doing so made the device spur to life. On the screen appeared the pokemon and general stats, including trivia, history, and the creature's cry. A Geodude, a common rock-type pokemon.
The trainer and pokemon had both encountered a Geodude before when Sherry took the Rustboro gym challenge. They had barely scraped by on that challenge and earned themselves a badge to boot. Now would be different, the agent thought to herself. I've got a better chance now. She took a step back and noticed the onlookers and became a little self-conscious. She really hoped people wouldn't remember her for wearing boots that weren't her size.
"Alright, you asked for it Mac," Sherry said to her Machop. She scratched her head and shot off an attack she believed would do some good here. "Close that distance with a tackle!"
Mac nodded and grinned before leaping forward to charge into the Geodude with a firm shoulder tackle.

After leaving the restroom, John walked over to the corner of the room and sat down cross-legged. Once John was seated, he then opened up one of his storage compartments and pulled out an MRE. The MRE was in a green package, similar to the color of John's MJOLNIR armor. John opened up the plastic back with little effort and emptied it's contents on the ground in front of him. There were now an assortment of packets in front of him, each one containing a particular portion of his dinner. Inside the packest was a main dish, a side dish, an energy bar called "First Strike" with an MA5C printed on the front, a package of crackers, cheese spread, powdered drink mix, a plastic spork, a flameless, water-powered ration heater, a beverage mixing bag, Xylitol chewing gum, a water-resistant matchbook, napkins, moist towelettes, and seasonings, all originally tightly packed into one small package.
John quickly got to work, tearing packages and preparing his meal. After a couple of minutes, John's food was now ready for consumption. It took John very little time as he quickly scarfed down his food without making a mess. It was a habit that was trained into him when he was a child. When one ate, they were vulnerable to attack, so the less time they took to eat, the sooner their guard would be up again. Once all the packages were empty, John grabbed them all, walked over to the garbage can, and tossed them in. After enjoying his meal, John put his helmet back on and reengaged his energy shields.
John had to admit, the meal wasn't the most flavorful, but it still satisfied him and left him in a good mood. As John's helmet repressurized, he walked to the window and simply gazed out of it, looking at the city before him. Tomorrow, John knew that he would be busy trying to find a water pokemon. John didn't really believe in luck, but hopefully everyone was right about him. Hopefully his luck would make tomorrow easier.

"Yeah?" Yuuka rose her eyebrows as if someone just answered a rhetorical question. Of course you don't want to spend the night in the woods, unless you have a death wish. "Come here, follow me."
"Yuuka!" Violet giggled as she pranced over, with her recently-bought hat on her head. "Who's this handsome gentleman?"
"Oh, he's... uh... Chung. I met him today. Chung, this is Violet. I live with her family."

The enemy Geodude merely bounced the attack off with ease. It seemed that Mac's attack didn't even hinder the Geodude as he flew into the air and slammed Mac aside with a tackle of his own.
"My Geodude is sturdy! I fed him pebbles from all over Hoenn!" Hiker Andrew boasted. "No mere tackle can take him down so easily!"

"...What? Pebbles?" Sherry stood silent as she stared at the hiker. Was he being serious? "Uh, okay... Mac! Are you alright?"
Mac picked himself up and rotated his shoulders before nodding. There was a scrape on his knee from the tumble, one that was present from the last fight with the Makuhita. Sherry figured the potion only covered up the injuries, and this fight was probably going to reveal them. If the Machop was still rearing to fight, then Sherry had no choice but to oblige him.
"Okay, move in again with a low kick!"
The Machop rolled its eyes. How else would he kick that rock pokemon? He rubbed his face and leaped forward again, this time with a stiff right leg aimed at the rocky mass.

"I might as well go to Castelia City today. I've got nothing better to do." It was a boring Spring day for Sekibanki. "But first I'll go spy on Elesa. That ought to be fun." Sekibanki pulled out a Pokeball that she had brought with her from Kanto, from back when she was a newscaster. "Aurelia, do come on out!" And from the ball came a very careful Barboach. "I heard that Elesa has an Emolga. You better have Ice Beam, because I have never battled with you before, & if you don't I'll be very ashamed of you." Aurelia looked around nervously. "Uh, I only have, uh, Mud Slap... Sorry?" "Of course! I knew that!" In reality, Sekibanki did not know, but she was feeling very proud of herself today. "Might as well take the Nimbasa Gym on anyways. I never did like Elesa's control of the city." "Uh, I don't know if that's a good idea..." Sekibanki, not listening to the Barboach Aurelia, instead picked her up, walked outside the house, past the Battle Subway, & into the amusement park. "We will practice on that person by the Ferris Wheel." "I don't trust you. What if I faint?" But Sekibanki was already rushing towards the Ferris Wheel, thoughts of glory in her heart...

The Geodude tensed itself to take the blow, but did not notice that Machop's low kick would do more damage when the target is heavier. Practically knocking himself out, Geodude was sent back to hiker Andrew's Pokeball.
Mac grew to Lv: 7!
Mac learned Focus Energy!
"Not bad!" Hiker Andrew seemed taken aback. "But wait until you see my second Pokemon! Go, Roggenrola!"
Roggenrola looked like a more rugged version of Geodude, with deep indigo body covered in smooth facets. Weird part about Roggenrola was that its' one ear was placed at the center of the body. The Roggenrola rolled about, scanning the landscape to see where is the best spot to hold its' ground.
Roggenrola Lv: 4
"Roggenrola, the rare rocky Pokemon from the Unova region!" Hiker Andrew guffawed. "He may not look like it, but he's even bulkier than my Geodude! Can you even crack through his armor?"
