CHAPTER X: THE FROST CAVERN MASSACRE
After winning their very own Fairy Badge from Valerie, Gav and his Pokémon were headed towards Frost Cavern. They were told that Mamoswine had gone North of Dendemille Town to investigate a disturbance in the tundra area. Spritely skipping along, Gav and his team bumped into a trainer looking for a Sky Battle. Altaria, itching for action hopped right out and took out both a Carnivine and Swanna with
ease. It seemed Altaria was not quite done yet though, as another Sky Trainer was eager for a bout. Gav, confident in his Altaria accepted. However this Sky Trainer had a trick up their sleeve: a Cyrogonal. Gav panicked, knowing that his beautiful Altaria had a four times weakness against Ice attacks. He commanded Altaria to fight hard, one Dragon Pulse after another, Cyrogonal shrug them off. Sing missed twice, Ice Beam was hitting oh so unfavourably until...Altaria took a critical hit to the neck, fainted, and died...

To say Gav walked away with his tail between his legs would be an insult to all who have fought a dignified battle and lost. He wailed, with his Altaria in arms and deposited her to the RIP box within his storage system. There was little time for mourning, he had to take vengeance upon that Sky Trainer, oh, and boy did he. He withdrew his level 70 shiny Lugia, who was both Bold in nature, and perfectly trained for battle. In one foul swoop Lugia annihilated that Cyrogonal with an Aeroblast. Oh, the irony was thick, a non-effective move taking down that Ice beast in one...but as it turned out the irony was not yet savored long enough. Gav had entered the cavern, in which the first wild Pokémon to attack was none other than a...
Cyrogonal. It seems this species just doesn't know when to quit. Armed with a Quick Ball, Gav captured the Pokémon before it could do any more damage.
It was time to Wonder Trade it away. Good riddance. A Caterpie showed its friendly face, but one was already sitting pretty in Gav's storage system so he rolled again. A Togepi, an honrouable replacement for our lost heroine Altaria. Gav continued to level Togepi up, using Breloom he outsped everything. Breloom was taking his anger out on the Ice Type of Frost Cavern like there was no tomorrow. Blinded by rage and regret, his trainer failed to take into account that the wild Haunter he was up against couldn't be hit by the usual "go-to" Mach Punch attack. Haunter took its chance and retaliated against Breloom, who was somewhat low on health. Another fallen comrade.

If he never seen a wild Pokémon in this awful place again, it would be too soon. Low on health, and supplies, Gav was eager to just make it through the cave. Espeon took the lead. Espeon lost the lead. Espeon fainted. Espeon, nor Gav, realised what hit it. The despair, the blind rage, the lack of concentration all rose into one ball of emptiness. A trainer devoid of emotion let his Pokémon die, because of the loss of one, his core, his little Swablu. He had given up. Lost all hope. Frost Cavern had beaten him. His fateful friends had come to him only to die due to his own negligence, Swablu, Shroomish, and now Eevee. Their smiling faces and eagerness to do their best for their trainer would never be forgotten. Gav made it through Frost Cavern, but the heartache had but one more stab to endure...

It was in Route 17 where Gav lost Togetic. It had evolved not long beforehand, from Togepi. The sign that their bond was growing, to Gav it was a sign that he hadn't completely failed as a trainer. Even though he had let three of his friends die, his Togepi still believed in him, still trusted him, still loved him enough to grow stronger for him. Trusting his trainer instincts, Gav sent level 42 Togetic out against Sneasel, even though it had a weakness. If Togetic was looking like it could faint here, he was ready to be switched out right away. No more chances today. Another critical hit. Togetic fell to the ground, the final soldier to lose his life that day. Simply because one trainer could not deal with the grief of losing one, he lost many.

Olympia was conquered at the Anistar Gym, but no songs would be sung tonight. Gav, Delphox, Lanturn, and Dratini would take down Team Flare and do anything but relieve the Frost Cavern Massacre of March the 23
