I turned back around but Gladion was nowhere to be seen. The crowd was starting to shuffle out of the battle area and into the lobby. Lillie and Hau walked up to me. “Where have you been?” Lillie asked. “Yeah you missed the entire battle,” Hau said. “The Masked Royal was incredible!” “Gladion was here,”... Continue Reading →
Pokémon Adventures #22: The Battle Royal
Lana and I traveled across the smaller of the two lakes to the shore where I first met her. I hoped off of Lapras’ back onto the sandy beach. “Do you know where you are heading next?” Lana asked me. “Well, not exactly. There’s more trials after this one, right?” I replied. “Most certainly.... Continue Reading →
Pokémon Adventures #21: Trial of Brooklet Hill
I sat Bouncee down on the ground and she looked up me with a big smile on her face. “Bounsweet!

Pokémon Adventures #20: A New Pokémon Joins the Team
Hau and I stood dazed for a little bit after Gladion left, but the need to heal Storm woke me from my confusion. “Hau, we need to get to the Pokémon Center so I can heal Storm,” I said. “Let’s head back to Paniola Town.” “Actually there’s one closer, up ahead,” Hau said. “Ok... Continue Reading →

I woke up the next morning, the sun had already risen and it was approximately 9 or 10 in the morning. Apparently I had slept in a little bit, but that was nothing new.

I walked quickly from the visitor’s bureau towards the Pokémon Center. Hau and Professor Kukui were nowhere to be found, but I figured they had gone off to get some breakfast.

We all woke up the next morning. It was rough for me getting up before the sunrise. The air was still warm and there were a few sound of Wingulls in the air. Lillie and I both got ready collecting our stuff together before heading downstairs. We met up with Hau and grabbed a... Continue Reading →
Pokémon Adventures #15: Wrapping Up Melemele Island
I woke up laying across my bed wearing the clothes I wore yesterday. These adventures were causing me to go through clothes like crazy. A whole new day and more stains from pollen, rain, mud, dirt, sand, and general Pokémon shenanigans. “Pika!” “Torrrr.” Smokey purred. “Good morning you two,” I said with a smile giving...

Pokemon Adventures #14: Ten Carat Hill
There was a lot of rejoicing and celebrating after both Hau and I completed the Grand Trial by defeating Island Kahuna Hala, but eventually the crowd faded and it was just the six of us standing there.
