Kalos Part 19

Journal Entry 77

It has officially been 77 days since I left to challenge the rest of the Gym Leaders I needed to beat in order to qualify for the Infinity Cup.

I first challenged Clemont at the Lumiose Gym inside of Prism Tower. He was very tough to beat, but my Pumpkaboo was eventually able to defeat his Luxray. Clemont gave me a Voltage Badge and wished me luck in the rest of my Gym battles.

From there, I went back to Laverre City and had my rematch with Valerie. I have so much respect for her as a Gym Leader. Gengar was able to beat Spritzee, but was quickly taken down by Sylveon. I decided to use Umbreon once again and this time we came out victorious. She gave me a Fairy Badge and even taught Togetic how to use Dazzling Gleam. She also told me where I could find Gengar's mega stone. We were able to get our hands on the Gengarite.

After Laverre City, I decided to challenge Grant at the Cyllage City Gym. He was a lot tougher than I expected and it took us a couple of tries, but we finally defeated him. I called Professor Sycamore a few times between my losses against Grant and he was able to give me encouraging words. I was even able to come up with a strategy to use Pumpkaboo and Buizel to defeat Grant's Onyx and Tyrunt. After defeating him, I was given the Cliff Badge.

Grant suggested that we visit the Santalune Gym next. He talked highly about Viola, the Gym Leader. She was also a photographer and displayed many of her prize winning photos in the lobby at her Gym. Togetic and Buizel came through against her Surskit and Vivillon, but it was, indeed, a close battle.

After our success at the Santalune Gym, I traveled back to Shalour City to train at the Tower of Mastery with Korrina's Grandfather. I was given a wristband with a Key Stone. I was able to connect with Gengar and have it Mega Evolve!

On my way to Anistar City, I made a stop just outside of Dendemille Town where I caught a Dragonair with the Quick Ball from my collection. That Dragonair came in handy in my battle against Olympia. She was, by far, the most challenging Gym Leader I faced. It was a double battle against her two Meowstic. I used Dragonair and Umbreon. We were backed into a corner, so to say, but something amazing happened in that battle. Dragonair evolved into Dragonite! It used a powerful Dragon Rage attack and won us the Psychic Badge. After that, I immediately sent my application for the Infinity Cup. I'm now on my way back to Lumiose City where the Infinity Cup will take place in just three days. I can't wait.

Vilnis was traveling on Route 21, just outside of Snowbelle City. Grookey was perched on his shoulder and chirped happily as they traveled. Umbreon walked loyally by his side. They had gone through a lot together in order to qualify for the Infinity cup and they would be arriving in Lumiose City by the next day. Early Evening at the latest.

Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, a frantic Prinplup came rushing towards Vilnis and his Pokemon. It blubbered some noises and motioned for Vilnis to follow.

"What in the world?" Vilnis asked as he ran after the Prinplup. They followed the frantic Prinplup to the base of a cliff where they saw a guy handing off the ledge. "Oh! Is that your trainer? He's gonna fall if we don't help him!"

Vilnis reached into his bag and threw a Pokeball. "Dragonite, I need you to fly up there and get that guy before he falls!" Dragonite soared up to the ledge and cradled the guy in Its arms, flying gently back down to the base of the cliff where Vilnis, Grookey, and Umbreon waited with a frantic Prinplup.

"Thank you for rescuing me," the guy said. "I guess I didn't notice how far I'd climbed until it was too late."

"What were you even doing up there in the first place?" Vilnis asked. The guy scratched the back of his head and looked to the ground in embarrassment. He had slate black hair that bounced with every step he took. His eyes were the color of almonds and he had a tan complexion.
