Falling rain bringing even more pain

I couldn't take that vision off my head, so I just ran towards route 33 again. It was raining there, so my tears wouldn't show off as much. I decided to train once more to become stronger but that was my second mistake on this night.

I should went to back to Azalea and get some sleep instead of training against wild pokémon this late at night, and even worse, with these horrible thoughts on my mind.

But it happened again, Cootte was crushed by a wild Ekans. And he was dead, once again I wasn't able to do nothing to save him. Two friends lost on the same night, maybe I'm the one that should have died instead of them.

Badge wrapped in blood

We headed once again to Kurt house, he told me he could make pokéballs with apricorns, how nice. I left some pink apricorns with him and left to the gym.

Inside the Gym, there were these strange spider shaped contraptions, I stepped on it and it started moving, it scared me at first but soon I got the hang of these things. There I battled some bug type trainers, It was easy for Scarlet, even tough it were her first battle against real trainers. After some trainers I reached the gym leader, he was a really cute boy, I even thought at first he was a girl, but I was not ready for what would come after this...

His first pokémon was a Scyther, he was just too strong, I couldn't let Scarlet face him so I sent Jakka Jan. It was a fierce battle, but Jakka Jan was losing, Scyther's sickles were way too sharp, so I withdrew Jakka Jan and sent out Viper to paralyze him. At first it looked like Viper would defeat him, she managed to paralyze it, but when I was less expecting, Scyther sliced my poor Viper in two with a critical hit...she was there, dead on the battlefield, there was nothing I could do but choose another pokémon to avenger her, but I couldn't, I flinched, I really wanted to cry there but somehow I managed to reach my pokéball and sent out Wayne. Scyther was already weakened so Wayne easily defeated it and Bugsy's other 2 pokémon, they were just a Kakuna and a Metapod so they were no big deal.

Bugsy handed me the Hive badge and some TM i didn't really cared about, I couldn't forget the vision of my viper being sliced right in front of me.

Right after the battle, Jakka Jan evolved into Pidgeotto, but he wasn't that happy either after all.

Return of Team Rocket (Or not)

When I got to the gym, there was another of these suspicious guy in black clothes standing in front of the door, blocking the entrance. He didn't let me pass, so I wandered around town and heard about this Kurt guy, the townsfolk said he might help me, so I went directly to his house.

Once I got there it looked like he was in a hurry, he told me to follow him to slowpoke's well and so I did. When we got in front of the well, Kurt argued with that suspicious guy and then both fallen in the well, I followed then and found Kurt in the bottom, he was hurt so he asked me to go inside to stop these guys, I agreed and entered the small cave inside the well. There was a small pond inside so I used an Old Rod I got before from a really nice fisherman I met and got a nice fish with a Lure Ball.

Scarlet, the Goldeen ♀

Met at lvl 10, Slowpoke Well

Nature: Quiet, Somewhat vain

Ability: Water Veil

The cave was really small, but there was 3 or 4 of these suspicious guys, I suppose they really are from Team Rocket after all. They were easy prey for Jakka Jan and Wayne, until I reached the last one, he was different from the others, he called himself Executive Proton.

But he was not really strong, Wayne defeated both his Zubat and Koffing. After the battle he was so mad, but he and his team retreated from the well and from Azalea, whew, guess I'll be able to challenge the gym now...

Union Cave and Route 33

In the end of route 32 there was a Cave, I heard it was called Union Cave and it was the shortest way to Azalea, so I decided to cross it. There was some other trainers there too, they weren't that strong so I defeated them easily, while crossing it I even caught a new pokémon.

Cabecinha, the Geodude ♂

Met at lvl 6, Union Cave

Nature: Timid, Proud of its power

Ability: Sturdy

Finally got out of the cave and reached Route 33, It was raining but I doesn't mattered, I caught one more pokémon then went directly to Azalea.

Coott, the Hoppip ♂

Met at lvl 6, route 33

Nature: Lonely, Highly curious

Ability: Chlorophyll

As I reached Azalea Town there was this suspicious guy in black clothes talking with this other guy, I think he mentioned something about Team Rocket, but I'm not really sure, anyway, I headed towards towards the Gym.

Sssssss and Mystery revealed

Caught another new pokémon on route 32, this cute little snaky thing *u*

Viper, the Ekans ♀

Met at lvl 4, route 32

Nature: Sassy, Good endurance

Ability: Intimidate

As I was training my new friend on route 32, I encountered many trainers and defeated them all, even made new friends and added their numbers to my pokégear

I went back to Violet to heal on the pokemoncenter and that amazing thing happened, the mysterious egg hatched and a very cute pokemon came out of it.

Dodongo, the Togepi ♂

Egg Hatched at Violet City

Nature: Naive, Hates to lose

Ability: Hustle

I immediately contacted Professor Elm and I can tell you he was pretty much excited, I'll take good care of Dodongo and make him grow strong. :3

Mysterious egg (Again)

The moment I stepped out of the gym my pokégear started ringing, I answered it and it was Professor Elm (Thanks god it wasn't Joey again). He told me that he was going to give me back that egg, so I can take with me in my adventure...well, sounded a bit strange, but whatever, I wonder was is inside it.

Professor said his aide was waiting for me at the pokémon mart to hand me the egg, so I got there and took the egg, he even gave me a super potion that Mama sent me, how nice.

Well, I suppose it's time for me to leave Violet City now and head out to Azalea.

Violet Gym Battle (Kotone x Falkner)

Finally got to the Gym, I stepped in that wodden thing and HOLY SH...... it was an elevator, it took me so quick to the top of the gym. I was kinda of scared at first but I couldn't retreat now, I promissed Tatat.

Before I could face the gym leader I fought 2 Bird Keepers, since it's a flying gym I decided to use my precious Jakka Jan, he did really well in both fights but there was still the leader for we to face off. I healed Jakka Jan with a potion and stepped up to face the Flying gym leader Falkner. He was kinda cool but it doesn't really mattered, I was there solely to battle him.

The first battle was his Pidgey angainst my Jakka Jan, it was an easy match, Jakka Jan outsmarted the other pidgey and managed to beat him, but I wasn't expecting Falkner's next pokémon. He sent out a Pidgeotto, the moment I've seen it I confess that I flinched but then I looked at Jakka Jan and he was pretty confident of himself. After a long and hard battle, Jakka Jan finally defeated his evolved form, Pidgeotto, it was a close call but we did it. YAY!

Falkner handed out to me my very first badge, The Zephyr Badge

I have to admit, it was even cooler that I thought. Falkner handed me a rad Technical Machine, and I immediately teached to Jakka Jan, he deserved it. The move was Roost, now Jakka Jan can land and rest a bit, restoring his health.

Worst night

The worst thing just happened, before I went to the gym, I decided to train Tatat a little bit at route 31. I got Futa-chan to help him out and Tatat managed to get some levels until that Hoothoot appeared...

It was being a really easy fight but hoothoot hitted a critical spot on my Tatat and made it faint. I freaked out and ran away, trying to get to the pokémon center but it was already too late...Tatat died.

Such a cold night, It was just some minutes ago that I buried him. But I must chin up, I memory of my Tatat I'll become the greatest trainer in all Johto.

Sprout Tower

I headed to sprout tower as soon as I left Violet City Gym, the tower wasn't that huge but there was a moving pillar right in it's center, it was kinda of cool.

Some monks were training up there with their pokémon, they challenged me to battle but I defeated then one by one, Futa-chan and Wayne are getting stronger little by little.

Oh, I even caught a new pokémon

Tatat, the Rattata ♂

Met at lvl 3, Sprout Tower

Nature: Modest, Highly persistent.

Ability: Guts.

Anyways, once I managed to get to the top I met that boy, Silver once again, he had just beaten the Master Monk and got away really fast with a escape rope, I wasn't even able to give him his trainer card, oh well, we shall met again. :3

I talked to the Master Monk and then we battled, he had some strong pokémon, in particular there was that high leveled Hoothoot, he managed to get Futa-chan asleep but Jakka Jan finished him with his quick attack. After the battle, the monk gave me an Techical Machine as a reward, it teaches flash, a move that may help me illuminate dark paths.

Well, I suppose it's time for me to finally challenge Violet City Gym...

Violet City at last

I fought some trainers on my way through routes 30 and 31, and even got some new friends to my team.

Futa-Chan, the Ledyba ♀

Met at lvl 4, route 31.

Nature: Hasty, Likes to thrash about.

Ability: Swarm.

W-what's wrong with Futa-chan? I-it's just a name like any other, r-right? p_p

Anyways, there was a really dark cave on route 31, I wasn't able to see much inside, but somehow I managed to get another pokémon.

Wayne, the Zubat ♀

Met at lvl 2, Dark Cave.

Nature: Quiet, Sturdy body.

Ability: Inner Focus.

After wandering a bit more I finally got to Violet City. The first place I checked was the Gym, but a man told me I could only challenge the Gym after paying a visit to the Sprout Tower, guess I have no choice...

Top Percentage

Just met this boy on my way to Violet City, his name was Joey and he challenged me to a battle. He just had an Rattata tough, it was really easy since Jakka Jan was already used to defeating these wild rats.

He was a bit upset and asked my number so he can call me for a rematch, Why not?

They grow fast (like, really fast D:)

So, I was running around through route 30, fighting lotsa wild hoothoots, rattatas and things like that to get some levels, when to my surprise, BiiDoriru evolved.

Kakuna is so rad, it's like a golden cocoon of awesomeness (not really, I was just excited with the very first evolution I've seen)

Ok, after that I kept fighting these wild guys on route 30 and BiiDoriru just evolved again, HOLY SHIT.

It turned into a Beedrill, I can barely contain myself. Now me and BiiDoriru will try venturing against these trainers, wish us good luck.

First (and Second) Pokémon caught

As I was venturing through routes 29 and 30 I caught my very first pokémons, they're so cuuuute.

Jakka Jan, the Pidgey ♂

Met at lvl 2, route 29.

Nature: Quirky, Likes to fight.

Ability: Keen Eye.

BiiDoriru, the Weedle ♂

Met at lvl 3, route 30.

Nature: Bashful, Very finicky.

Ability: Shield Dust.

I'll try my best to make these guys pretty strong so we can beat all these trainers along the way `-´
