Well, I'm finally here now... At the Pokémon League. Despite arriving here days ago, I actually haven't attempted to fight the Elite Four yet, since I've continued training the past week or so... I know my team is pretty strong, but I wanted to continue training to make sure I'm REALLY ready... And now... I know my team is ultra powerful, but... There's still one last thing I wanna do before I take on the league...
I know throughout my journey, I've conquered so many different challenges, fought so many different Pokémon. I feel like I've conquered so many aspects of Kanto, except for one... The legendary birds. Ok, hear me out. I know we helped free the birds from Team Rocket, and now they're back to their homes safe and sound, but... I can't stop thinking about how they're doing. After everything that's happened to them, do they struggle trusting humans now? I wanted to go out and find them, see for myself, and if they let me... I wanna challenge all three of them. And, if it's also possible... To capture them. Once I challenge them, not only will I have truly taken on everything there is in the Kanto region, but I'll also give the birds a chance to trust humans again, and a safe space to make sure other bad humans like Team Rocket won't ever hurt them again. Once I defeat all the birds... Then I'll really be ready for the Pokémon League. But on the other hand, I'm only gonna do this if the birds even accept my challenge in the first place. The last thing I wanna do right now is make them uncomfortable...
Today I'm gonna go out and look for the birds... As of now, I know that Moltres lives in Victory Road, so I started looking around inside the area again, trying to look for it. I was searching for so long, that I felt like I was about to give up, but...
"Pika! Pika pi!" Pikachu pointed up towards the ceilings, where I could see Moltres quickly fly past us.
"Whoa- Moltres, wait up!" I quickly chased after Moltres. Moltres disappeared behind some rocks while I was chasing it, leading me into the same secluded area I was in last time I was here.
"MOLTRES!! PLEASE COME OUT!! I NEED TO TALK TO YOU, PLEASE!!" I yelled as loud as I possibly could. Then, quickly out of nowhere, Moltres flew into view from behind some rocks. Moltres slowly flew down to the ground, landing right in front of me.
"Moltres, hey! Thank you so much for stopping for me... I'm not sure if you remember me, but my names Sam, and I just wanted to ask you something. Moltres... Please let me challenge and capture you! I know you must be hurt after what Team Rocket did to you, and you probably don't trust humans, but... If you give me a chance, I'll show you that not all humans are bad. I really wanna prove it to you... When I capture you, I'll be able to protect you, train you, even if it's something you don't need, since I know how strong you are. But most importantly, I'll make sure that bad guys like Team Rocket member hurt you again. So please... Accept my challenge."
Moltres was silent for a moment, looking like it was thinking, as it curiously stared down at me... Then, Moltres suddenly let out a loud screech, opening up its wings wide. Moltres then looked down at Pikachu, letting out a soft squeak.
"Pika!" Pikachu looked back at me, nodding, which basically told me Moltres' answer.
"Yes, this is amazing! Thank you, Moltres. Hmm, now who should I use..."
"Pika pika!" Pikachu excitedly jumped up and down.
"Hm? You wanna fight Moltres, Pikachu?" I asked, Pikachu nodding.
"Alright, good... Then let's do this!"

BATTLE... BEGIN!!
Sam: "Alright Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!"
Pikachu attacked, but Moltres quickly dodged it. Moltres then used Agility, rapidly flying around in the air.
Sam: "Try to focus on Moltres, then use Thunderbolt again!"
Pikachu took his time to focus, this time landing the attack. Moltres then used Fire Spin, doing a decent amount of damage to Pikachu, flames swirling all around him.
Sam: "Hang in there, Pikachu! Use Slam!"
Moltres didn't try to dodge the attack this time, taking a decent amount of damage. Then, it used Agility again, flying around in the air even faster.
Sam: "Quick, use Thunder!"
Before Pikachu could attack, Moltres used a Flamethrower attack on him, doing a ton of damage and knocking him pretty far back. I really don't think Pikachu could live one more attack, and Moltres was flying around in the air like crazy, so fast I don't even know how Pikachu could hit it. Man, what do I do... Hmm...
Sam: "Pikachu, jump on top of the rocks and hop onto Moltres' back!"
Pikachu gracefully jumped from rock to rock, getting higher and higher from the ground, until he was at Moltres' level. Pikachu waited for the right moment, waiting until Moltres flew by him... Where he jumped, landing perfectly on Moltres' back.
Sam: "Hang on tight, Pikachu! Use Thunder!!"
Pikachu blasted out an incredibly powerful Thunder right on Moltres, doing a ton of damage. Moltres weakly floated down to the ground, sturggling to stand up straight...
Sam: "Alright, let's do this...HYAH!!"
I chucked an ultra ball at Moltres, who went inside...
...1 shake...
...2 shakes...
...3 shakes...
...Click!

Whoa...
...DID I SERIOUSLY JUST DO THAT?! I JUST CAUGHT A LEGENDARY?!
I felt stunned, so shocked at what just happened. Pikachu picked up Moltres' Poke ball, walking up to me with a smile on his face.
"Pikachu... Oh my gosh, you did AMAZING!!" I picked up Pikachu, giving him a tight hug as he happily squealed, hugging me back. "You're awesome Pikachu, you really have grown so strong, buddy..."
I put Moltres' Poke ball into my back. Hmm, now where do I go next...?
