The Everlasting Pokémon Journey

...that she knew that, but she was talking about tomorrow, when you both agreed you'd battle. You tell her that you'll be there at around 3:00 PM. She'll see you then. Flannery then asks you to control your Pokemon. It seems that Helena and Floppers are enjoying their splashing contest a little too much and everyone is getting wet. You apologize and then ask the two to dial it back a bit. They still splash each other, but at least no one else is getting wet now. Elizabeth is taking a nap while partially buried in the sand, and Pyra and Marshall are both laughing, apparently sharing funny stories. You and Sabrina get in the hot springs, and the first thing she does is...
 
....ask if you want your child together to be a boy or a girl. You ponder this for a moment before answering that you will be happy either way. Sabrina is pleased at hearing this and suggests you all stay in Lilycove City Hotel after you earn the Heat Badge tomorrow. You immediately agree to this and inform the rest of your party that this will be the case. They all agree on this and Flannery looks on at seeing all people and Pokémon enjoying the hot springs. Then...
 
...it begins to rain heavily, so everyone is forced to leave the hot springs and go inside. You put all your Pokemon back into their Balls and head inside the Pokemon Center. Serena and Claire are watching HWC (Hoenn Weather Channel), and apparently, it's going to rain heavily for the next couple of days. So much for the hot springs. You, Sabrina, Claire, and Serena decide to pass the time by...
 
...playing a game of Pokemon: The Card Game, turns out Serena has a full deck on hand. After much head scratching regarding the rules by all but Claire you and Sabrina tell the two girls you are going to take a couples walk in the rain. Serena and Claire nod and as your wife magics an umbrella for you both you step out and...
 
...walk for a while. You then give Sabrina a present. It's a beautiful necklace with jewels the same color as her eyes. She wears it and says she loves it and thanks you for it with a kiss. The two of you then begin to make out in the rain. Then, the loud echoing voice from earlier spoke from the heavens and told the both of you to get a room. You tell the voice to shut up and get back to protecting the fourth wall. Sabrina, however, convinces you that maybe it's best to listen to the voice. So the two of you get a room and [CENSORED BY 4KIDS]. The next morning...
 
...you both wake up early. It's 9.30am and you remember you are battling Flannery this afternoon. You and Sabrina decide to take a leisurely and somewhat romantic walk back to where Serena and Claire are staying. Arriving from your enjoyable walk you both see that Serena now has shoulder length hair which you both say you like. Claire ties her hair up and scolds both you and your wife for staying out all night and causing her to worry. Sabrina is incensed and tells the bespectacled Claire that...
 
...she's sorry for making her worry, but she and you were too busy last night to come back. She also shows Claire the necklace you gave her, and the two starts having a conversation about it. Meanwhile, Serena was curious as to what exactly you and Sabrina were doing last night, but you quickly tell her that she's better off not knowing. Later in the afternoon, you show up in Lavaridge Gym at 3 PM, ready to get your seventh badge (you checked the last couple of pages to make sure). Flannery shows up and is ready for the battle! You send out Floppers, while she sends out...
 
...A shiny Entei! You forget Floppers attacks at the shock of fighting it and start running around like a madman. Flannery is looking at you like you're brain dead and then commands Entei to use Fire Fang when...
 
...you quickly snap out of it and have Floppers use Waterfall, which crits and KOes the Entei. You then quickly apologize for the panicking. Next, she sends out Torkoal. It uses Sunny Day while the Gyarados Dragon Dances. Floppers then uses Earthquake, but the Torkoal barely survives and uses Attract. Damn! Floppers is of course infatuated, but thankfully smashes it with Waterfall. KO! Next is Flannery's Camerupt, and you decide to switch to Helena. The Jellicent uses Rain Dance to change the weather, while Flannery commands Camerupt to...
 
...Mega Evolve and use Crunch on the Floating Pokémon. You are impressed at seeing a Mega Camerupt for the first time but nevertheless order Helena to use Water Spout which she does severely denting the Volcano like Pokemon. Flannery responds by telling Mega Camerupt to use Crunch...Critical Hit. You get the wounded Helena out of there and send on Marshall who easily withstands a Crunch. He is faster than Mega Camerupt and uses Wood Hammer to knock the Volcano Pokémon off its feet and end the battle. Flannery smiles and gives you the Volcano Badge and a key to the Scorched Slab where you can find your own Heatran. She also congratulates you on your marriage to Sabrina (She also reminds you she was actually there as a Bridesmaid) and says your wife is 'glowing.' The girls get very excited at hearing this and you ask Flannery...
 
...why she gave you a Volcano Badge and not a Heat Badge. She says that her Gym and Blaine's Gym were merged, so the Heat and Volcano Badges are legally the same now. You thank Flannery for the battle, Badge, and Scorched Slab Key, and then decide to take Sabrina, Serena, and Claire to a fancy restaurant to celebrate your victory. Upon entering, you see Bonnie and Clemont, who instantly runs to Serena and hug her. They thought that she died and was zombified in the Lumiose Zombie Attack. Serena explains how you cured her and she's been traveling with you ever since. Clemont and Bonnie then ask...
 
...why they were not invited to yours and Sabrina's Wedding. You apologise saying Oak handled the invitations and must of forgot. They accept this explanation and congratulate you. Once you have all finished your delicious meal of grilled Basculin Sabrina excitedly announces that she is pregnant and you and her will be welcoming a child soon. You are overjoyed at hearing this news and...
 
...think that nothing could ruin your day now. You are quickly proven wrong when Professor Sycamore runs in and tells everyone some bad news. Apparently, a Masked Man is going around and kidnapping, torturing, and even killing all the Froakie, Frogadier, and Greninja he could find. You ask Sycamore why exactly you should care. Sycamore then states that the Masked Man has publicly announced that he would target the Fennekin line after he was done. You cry, "NO, NOT THE FENNEKIN LINE! THIS GUY'S A MANIAC! HE MUST BE STOPPED!" Sycamore tells you he is currently working on a plan, which is...
 
...to find the Masked Man and confuse him by asking him if he is a boy or a girl. You and Sabrina shake your head and suggest a back-up plan. You notice Claire's Lilligant run into the Boutique next door and as you follow the Grass Pokémon you see the Masked Man trying to find a tie. He spots the Flowering Pokemon who calmly uses Sleep Powder putting him to sleep before running back to Claire. A now pleased Sycamore tells you...
 
...that he can now be apprehended. Unfortunately, the Masked Man wakes up and then points an invisible gun at Sycamore (damn it, 4Kids), blaming him for the Froakie line's survival. Fortunately, Pyra and Marshall sense that Sycamore is in danger and come out of their Balls to protect their father figure. Marshall blocks the invisible bullet, while Pyra super-heats the Masked Man's invisible gun and burns his hand. Sadly, the Masked Man then throws a smoke bomb and escapes. As usual, Officer Jenny comes too late to help. After Sycamore explains to Officer Jenny what happened, she responds by...
 
...shaking her head gravely and scolding Sycamore. After reassuring Serena as she is worried that she had been kidnapped you all head back to the cafe, and see the Masked Man cowering in fear as a woman with long brown hair and wearing a white Ball Gown orders him to repent and turn herself him. A Shiny Dragonite, a Mandibuzz and a Lilligant are stood with her. The Lilligant waves to you, wait it can't be. 'Champion'. Officer Jenny says. 'I'll take it from here.' as the Masked Man is apprehended. The woman turns round and My Goodness, The Champion of the Region is Claire. (No wonder that Lilligant seemed overpowered you hear Sabrina muttering to herself). You notice with her hair down Claire looks like Cynthia and seems more confident than before. She adjusts her glasses and and smiles before telling you she was going to reveal she was the Champion after you got the eighth Badge but, circumstances. She helpfully tells you her main Pokemon for battle is Dragonite and she travelled with you to learn about Pokémon behaviour. Lilligant stands besides her dancing happily. You are still surprised the Champion is travelling with you and ask her...
 
...of all people to choose to travel with, why choose you? She says it's because you asked her to join. You know this, but ask her why she said yes. Claire says that she can sense the power and potential of an individual, and apparently your potential is enormous and your power over 9000! She then reminds you that as much as she would like to battle you, you still need one more badge. You remember back when you fought Team Rocket in their Gym that Jessie mentioned a city floating in the clouds. There was a Gym there. Claire offers to take the group there via private jet. One jet ride later, and you arrive in the City in the Sky. You are surprised to see...
 
...Elite Four Marshall training there. He firmly shakes your hand and says 'You are the one the Champion has been speaking so highly of.' He gives a friendly hug to Champion Claire. 'I have no doubt we will battle soon, once you have got the Final Gym Badge.' An elegant voice yells 'That is assuming he defeats me'. Winona walks over to the party looking radiant with long blonde hair and she says 'Please Challenger, may you, your party and your Pokémon make yourself at home and rest. We shall do battle tomorrow.' She turns to Claire. 'Champion...An honour as always.' Claire takes off her glasses and nods, you sense an uneasiness between the two. You all head to your rooms and before sleeping you turn to your wife and ask...

...what should the baby's name be. Sabrina thinks that it would be better to wait until the baby's gender can be determined before coming up with ideas for a name. You agree and then you kiss your wife good night. Once you fall asleep, you dream that you're on top of a green cloud with a hooded figure facing you. It whispers to you to come to the Ancient Tower in the northern part of the City in the Sky. The hooded figure gives you an ancient looking emerald key to open the Tower. When you wake up next morning, you realize that you're holding something in your right hand. It's the ancient emerald key! How creepy! You can't decide whether to unlock and check out the Ancient Tower first, or take on the Gym beforehand. After telling your wife about what happened, she thinks it's best to...
 
...ask Winona about the tower. Realising she likely won't give up the information straight away you resolve to ask the rest of your party. You leave your room and see Claire and Serena in deep conversation. You are pleased the reveal of Claire as Champion has not affected their friendship. You ask them about the tower and they say...
