The Everlasting Pokémon Journey

[khaozz]

...head towards the nearby mountain, where you see an old man blocking the way to a cave. He tells you that it's dangerous to go alone. He is about to tell you to take his sword, but then realizes that you have someone with you. He apologizes and says that you can have the sword anyway. Its blade is far too dull to actually be able to cut anything, but you might have a use for it anyway. You thank the old man and continue to climb up the mountain with your new companion. You then realize that you don't even know her name yet. You introduce yourself, and she is amused by the fact that your name is "You". She tells you her name, which is...

 

[LilyGardy]

...Emma. She tosses her blonde hair and shows you her main Pokémon, a Froslass. The Snow Land Pokémon converses with your Lilligant Jessica. You are happy Emma has a Froslass as you have no Ice types. You and Emma continue to scale the mountain and notice...

 

[HyperMorian]

... that it doesn't help even if she had one since you're still freezing even if your Delphox carrying the fire torch--cause that Pokémon ain't a temperature controller either. Ascending the higher passage through the valley of snows, you're now outside of the cave. However, within the dark skies, every direction on sight are plain thick pile of snow in the vast glacier of whites. You opened the PokéNav to look for your location; you're now in Nevermelt Canyon, which is possibly the snowy version of Poni Canyon. To think that this place is a literal doppelganger of the original; this one is unforgiving. The location is just ahead past the aforementioned place, but it seems like it's better to go back and equip yourself with proper equipment before advancing to avoid the risk of hypothermia. Or... would you go ahead and take the said material no matter what it costs? You began to think about ideas to what you should do,...

 

[PageEmp]

...And found a hut out of nowhere, so you, your mons, and the trianer all went inside. The hut felt a lot warmer than outside so you all decided to settle in. You and the trainer turned on the TV and laughed at the show that was going on which involved Reshiram kicking Zekrom's ass. Suddenly, you heard footsteps. You quickly told the trainer to hide in the closet, and she does as told. You saw a shadow, and recognised it immediatley as a Leader. That Leader was...

 

[khaozz]

...Pryce. He asks you what you're doing in his hut. You explain that with the cold temperature outside, it was either this or hypothermia. Pryce then notices your dull sword. He says that you and your companion (you see Emma getting pushed out of the closet by Pryce's Piloswine, who was inside the whole time) can both stay if you give him the sword. You hand the sword over to him, and he then heads to the kitchen to make hot chocolate for everyone. You decide to look out the window, and you see...

 

[LilyGardy]

...numerous Alolan Vulpix playing happily whilst a Alolan Ninetales watches. You, Emma and the leader drink the Hot Chocolate that Pryce made and he tells you that...

 

[HyperMorian]

... he has been staying in this place for a while now. During the universe merging, a fissure happened; his gym was split into two, as well for the remaining continent up to the Mt. Mortar and the Lake of Rage which ended up being separated and replaced into an unknown hill. Portals appearing out of nowhere, while he surely didn't know where it will lead into, his old age won't make a dent for a better determination that he had. And so, he ended up here, in a land with extreme blizzards, he felt how this coldness is just signifying that the end of the world is nearer than what he expected.
"Assume those Vulpix playing outside as the mother nature. If we don't disturb them, they won't disturb us either or won't even care at all. But what if the one whose responsible for all this matter, appear with a sharp icicle in its right hand? That's right, someone is threatening to knock the world off balance. If anyone did it, wouldn't the world be in dread? As for the sword, it's simple. You can see its engraving on the tilt, say the said sentence facing toward the north while raising your hand upward, and of course you need to be alone--without any companions, be it friend or Pokémon. Anyone barely made it, and the old man below there has to feel bad everyday for every corpses he had thrown inside the white abyss beneath this very snow covering. Are you surprised? Thought so, it's unbelievable, you never knew what lies below what you step on. Not even those Vulpix, they were innocent--yet they never know that memorials of the deceased are just few meters below their glossy paws? It's alright, you should worry that no more. This has happened a long time ago and they were all ignorant to what the old man wants to tell them about. It's better to listen rather than to die without direction, let someone's death be in vain is one of the worst humiliation ever in this world. Now go grab the equipments you need to keep yourself warm and memorize what I said earlier. As for me, I should stay to take care of lost travelers whose must be going this way by now." He explained, and those are legit bullsh!t materials right over there. But you decided to follow the instructions while grabbing anything that can keep yourself really warm to at least resist the cold. You...

 

[LilyGardy]

...thank the wise Johto Leader for his help and even with the relevant equipment you are all still very cold. You look at a nearby sign it says 'Beware of exploding Glalie'. Emma has noticed...

 

[HyperMorian]

... that there was a peculiar pair of black rocks that are well placed, pointing upward while the entire bottom was buried beneath the snow itself. Upon closer inspection, you quickly realized that this is Glalie's horns, and decided to stay away to avoid contact with it as it can possibly be troublesome if one were to explode. Taking a step back, you head out to where the material is located...

 

[PageEmp]

...Which is in Dygoete city, a place located at the end of the snowy canyon. You both found a hotel in the place and decided to go and check in. You also ask a manager of the hotel where to find the materials in theis place and he says...

 

[HyperMorian]

... that if you speak that taboo word again then that means you will need to leave immediately. "But why?" Asked Emma. "Because every time the word 'material' is said, a Glalie will go haha, and it was stupid." He explained. Seems legit, you...

 

[LilyGardy]

...ask again what you need to find being careful not to use the word 'materials' he has no idea but he says (in a very hushed voice as he does not want any Glalie overhearing) he knows what the pieces for the badge are. He tells you you need to find 2 pieces of Enchanted Wood, An Ice Flower in Crystal White and most importantly a Glalie's Horn. Knowing it will be difficult to obtain these items you thank the hotel manager for the information and You, Emma and your Pokemon head to your Hotel Room. Emma tells you before today she only knew you as the man who married Sabrina (As much chronicled in Hey! Magazine to your immense surprise) but says she is impressed with your skills as a trainer and your bond with Pokemon. You thank the blonde for telling you this and...

 

[HyperMorian]

... hug her. It's warm, but let's not get too long to avoid possible misunderstanding. You headed into the hotel's restaurant buffet, foods are free as long you can finish what's served on the big table. You along with your Lilligant looked around, observing the area and the place is quite fancy. There's not really a lot of people to be found here so the place is sorta wide, but please refrain from saying the 'material' word as it may reverberate easily. You went for the...

 

[LilyGardy]

...Fried Basculin and Kalos Fries with a Soda Pop whilst Emma opts for a simple Garden Salad and a cup of tea. You buy your Lilligant some ice cream. Emma puts her hair into a ponytail using a scrunchie she has and you notice the scrunchie has a white flower decoration. You ask her if it is an ice flower and she says...

 

[HyperMorian]

... no, this isn't really an ice flower but an Edelweiss. But you do have a point, we don't have their exact appearance and who knows the flower you guessed turned to be one of 'them'. After a great dinner, you looked for the manager and asked if this flower is one of 'them'. He replied,...

 

[PageEmp]

"That he does not know what you are talking about". You then get a stinking feeling: he might not be what you think. You quickly alert Emma to get out of the restaurant but then the manager decides to challenge you two. Emma summoned an Excadrill and you summoned Lilligant while the bad manager summoned a Scolipede, which was handeled by the 2 mons. The bad manager...

 

[LilyGardy]

...turns and flees. The result of this is you and Emma do not have to pay for your meals but have no idea if Emma's hair decoration is indeed an Ice Flower. Emma pulls out a pair of white rimmed glasses and puts them on. She says she has an idea on how to find the parts for the badge she suggests...

 

[HyperMorian]

... that they should repeat the word 'material' over and over so the Glalie outside will go haha. There might be a reason why that word is banned, and you decided to...

 

[LilyGardy]

...to do just that. You say 'material' over and over again and Glalie goes 'Haha' and you see the enchanted wood you need in his mouth. You must move quickly to retrieve the wood so Emma suggests...

 

[khaozz]

...finding a way to distract it. You then have an idea. You send out Violet and ask the Gengar to find a way to make the Glalie laugh (preferably a way that doesn't involve you getting hurt). Violet then goes to the Glalie and starts speaking a language you don't understand. Apparently, the Glalie understands, because it then starts laughing. It laughs so hard, the wood falls out of its mouth and Violet grabs it and tosses it to you. The Glalie doesn't care about the wood it lost, and still keeps on laughing. You thank the Gengar, who licks your face in affection, and then remember that you also need a Glalie horn. Unfortunately, the Glalie left already, but you do see...
