Hey! So if you guys wouldn't mind, could you please tell me about any spelling or grammar errors? It would be a major help bc I don't feel too confident about that sorta stuff and I mostly wrote this chapter at like midnight while I was half asleep. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy!

---------------

You open the door to the house you're renting from a sweet couple on route 2. It was a nice two bedroom house with one bathroom and a connecting kitchen and living room. The woman you're renting from turns her head toward you as you open the door, a sun hat and and an outfit consisting of a green top and a maroon skirt. She stood up, picked up two suitcases and headed toward you. "Alola! I do hope you have a nice trip here!" She was practically beaming, " all I ask is that you don't burn our house down," she says while chuckling
"No need to worry ma'am, I'll make sure this beautiful home is in perfect condition when you get home," you smiled back. When she left, mumbling about her husband waiting, or something. Once you are sure she's gone, you begin exploring the house. You open the door to the left and find a king sized bed, a nightstand on each side and a door connecting to the bathroom. You assume this is the master bedroom and put your stuff down on one side. As you're about to open the door to the bathroom, you feel a wiggle on your belt. You look down and face palm, feeling bad for not doing this earlier. You take the three of the six poke balls on your belt and sent you three most treasured Pokémon out. In front of you, a typhlosion (named Tye), Lucario(named Riek), and Sylveon (named Xinos) appeared. Sylveon bounded over to you, nuzzled his face on your calf and jumped up to its usual place on your shoulder, purring softly. The other two decided to stretch and take a look around the house as well. Going back to your original task, you went to the second bedroom and saw a tv, a bed with blue sheets, a cabinet with trophies sitting on top, and a desk looking out to the almost empty yard. Really, the only things there are a swing set and a tree. You hum softly to yourself as you look around the rest of the room.
After a moment of spacing out, you feel a distant twinge of excitement and a minute later another twinge of disappointment. You chuckle and find exactly what you thought was going on: Tye was in the kitchen exploring the empty cabinets. When he realized you were there, looking at him, he closes the cabinet and slowly backs out of the kitchen. He chirps at you and you start laughing, Xinos almost falling off of your shoulder. You place a hand on your starter's head and say, " I'll get some stuff to eat, alright?" He chirps happily and nuzzles into your hand. You grab your messenger bag, your wallet and some sunglasses. "Riek! You're in charge!" You yell and close the door behind you.
Halfway down the path to Hau'oli city you take out your pokedex to look at the map, making sure you're on the right path. When you arrive at the city's shopping district you look around until you find a sign that resembles one of a supermarket.

Practically dragging the heavy bags up the hill leading to "your" house, you set them down as you unlock the door, feeling ten pounds lighter. You open the door and Riek is immediately at your side picking up half the groceries and taking them to the kitchen. As he does the second half, you begin unpacking the food and supplies that you bought.
You sigh, having everything unpacked, you turn to your Pokémon and ask what they want for dinner. Instead of waiting for an answer, you turn around and grab a bad from the pantry labeled "pokebeans". You open it and hold one out for Sylveon and he sniffs it hesitantly. After his inspection, he takes a bite and his eyes light up soon eating the rest of the bean in a few bites. You smile and pet his head, gettinga few more for him before moving on to the other two. Tye and Riek seemed to like them too, and you're happy that your purchase was worth spending. Turning to the bathroom to take a shower before making yourself dinner, you grab a towel and pat Tye affectionately on the head. He chirps and heads to the owner's son's room. You figure out how to work the shower after about three minutes and let the hot water run down your tired body.
....
You get out of the shower and as soon as you wrap your towel around your body, you feel a twinge of terror and alert, followed by a crash and a grunt sounding somewhat similar to "shit" from the room next to you.
Running to the room next to you, you see an man with white hair trying to scramble back out of the window, but he's stopped by Tye biting his black hoodie and pulling. The man gets one of the most shit eating grins you've ever seen and stops resisting against your obviously stronger Typhlosion. Tye pulls him inside and he towers above you. He's wearing sweatpants that match his jacket, a gold chain with a stupid looking S on it, and wonky glasses. You close the window, shaking a little, and confront the man, while Tye seethes and Riek comes in to see what he commotion is about. Riek leans against the door, arms crossed and a small twinge of amusement sparks in your heart, which would cause you to laugh if Tye's anger wasn't overpowering it.
"What the hell are you doing?" You ask, only making his grin grow at your anger, almost pleased that he's pissing you off.
"Well I could ask ya the same thin'," he retorts and Tye and your anger grow. You pinch the bridge of your nose and look up at him.
"Please explain to me why you're breaking into this house." You glare daggers at him, and your face slightly heats up as you remember that you're only wearing a towel.
"I'm here for a disc of mine, sweet cheeks," he says and chuckles at your reddening cheeks. You opened your mouth but quickly closed it. Instead, looking at Tye then the bed. Tye chirped excitedly, tugs at the man's hoodie again and Riek soon catches on, pushing him onto the bed and trying to keep him there. "Jeez, mind taking me to dinner first? I mean I'm not complaining..." His stupid grin spreads even bigger and he looks you up and down. You flip him off, exit the room and get dressed into some jeans and a (f/c) shirt.
Once you re-enter the room, not having to worry about accidentally flashing him, you see that Riek has resorted to sitting on the man's back, Tye growling close by. He hears the door close behind you and tries to get a look at you from behind Riek. "So, doll face, are ya gonna get these guys off my ass, or not?" Tye looks at him, a faint fire escapes from his back. He contains it resulting in a bit of smoke coming out of his mouth. He blows it in the stranger's direction, causing him to cough and he chortles, causing you to laugh a little. You nod at Riek and he gets off the stranger who, a little too eagerly, scrambles off the bed. You cross your arms and look up at him
"So, Mr. I'm gonna climb through your window and cause a ruckus, got a real name?" You hold your gaze at him, on the verge of glaring, but not quite there yet.
"I do," he chuckles, mimicking your position. "Do you have a name, miss... I'm staying at your parents house..." weak. He winces a little at how bad his comeback is. You nod, smirking at how terrible his attempt was. "Uhh.... I'm Guzma, leader of the one and only Team Skull!" His moxie returning to his voice, being leader seems to be something he's very proud of, you think.
You hold out a hand. "Nice to meet you, Guzma... the name's (y/n)." He looks at your hand cocking an eyebrow before realizing what you're expecting. At the contact, a new burst of anger twitches in your heart, and you give a warning glance over to your Typhlosion.
"Okay, see ya later, dolly." He tries to walk past you, but Riek is there before he is and blocks the door.
"I'm not done with you, yet," you say. He glares down at you and hunches over so that he can be level with your eyes.
He smirks, "Oh, but I think you are." You don't budge, neither does Riek. His smirk soon is replaced with a sneer and he gets closer to your face. You feel Tye come to your side, ready to fight. "Did ya hear me, doll? I said we're fuckin done here." You flinch slightly, feeding his now semi intimidating grin. You sigh, placing a hand on Tye for comfort, you speak.
"And I said we are not." Your voice is steadier than you thought it would be. "I'm not done asking you questions, and it would be rude of me to not offer you dinner, no matter how rudely you've been acting." You look at Riek, who nods and uncovers the door, opening it and let's you out of the room. Making sure Tye has an eye on Guzma, you lean over and whisper to Riek to make sure he doesn't get into any trouble whilst you make dinner for the two of you. He nods again and you head to the kitchen. After about three minutes, Guzma strolls into the kitchen, comes up behind you and smacks you on the upper part of your butt.
"What's cookin, good lookin'?" He grins and your face turns a bright red.
"TYE!!" You yell, making the tall man behind you jump a little from the sudden loud noise. Tye comes running before you finish saying his name, understanding what to do. Fire coming out of his back as he tries not to set Guzma on fire, he drags him away from the kitchen, guarding it when he gets far enough.
"Tch... what's your problem, lady? 'S not like I did anythin' to ya." He glares at Typhlosion and looks back at you. You shake your head, sprinkling some seasoning into the simmering pot, put the lid back on and face him.
"You didn't do anything, huh?" You place your elbows on the kitchen's island and glare right back at him. "Please tell me, what do you consider 'something'?" You tilt your head in mock curiosity. He mutters something and you give him some side eye before returning to your Udon.
"Hey where are ya from? I haven't seen ya around here and ya don't sound like it either." He points at Tye who gives a sends a small spark in his direction. "I've never seen anythin' like his motherfucker around here."
"Johto," you say simply, putting the beef on one side of the bowl and fill it with broth and noodles. You put one of the bowls on the island. "Fork or chopsticks?" He's quiet for a minute before he answers, as if thinking really hard about it.
" Hand me somma them chopsticks." He says reaching a hand out in your direction. You do so and sit down at a stool beside the island. He starts walking toward the dining table, looks at you and decides against it, sitting next to you instead. You sigh and pay attention to your dinner. "So," he says, breaking the momentary silence. "You never answered my question, dolly." He fiddles with the chopsticks for a moment before giving up and getting up to get a fork.
"Mind reminding me of the question?" You say with a mouth half full of noodles.
"Why are ya staying here?" He sits back down.
"Because I need a place to stay...? I'm not gonna stay in a cramped hotel for six months."
"Six months... damn." He sounds surprised, and a little excited...? You're not too sure. "What are ya here for?"
"Work," another simple statement.
" wanna specify?" He asks, twirling his fork around in the noodles.
"Would you like to specify why you're crawling through your... parents..? Window at eight at night?"
He answers as if it's obvious. "I didn't wanna deal with 'em. Alls I needed was a disc, no need for anything to go down."
You look down at your nearly empty bowl. All you can really say is "huh," before going back to being quiet.
"Yo, you got me curious tho, what are ya workin' on?" He seems to be done with his food, so you take his bowl and utensils to the sink.
"Evolutionary stuff for the professor back in johto."
"What, Elm? Isn't he ,like, a major pushover?" He snickers, " did ya make him send ya here? Ooh! Did ya make him pay for it?!" He is full on laughing now, and all you can do is roll your eyes and try not to break that big 'ol nose of his.
"No, actually. He is a very close friend of my family's and he asked me to come and study evolution in this region of the world, since we don't have a lot of the variants or species of Pokémon that originate from here." Xinos strolls up to you, rubs against you sleepily then jumps up on the island to get a look at the guest. He sends you a twinge of acceptance as he happily barks at Guzma, who gently pets him in return. You eye him, making it clear that if he hurts your Sylveon, he will end up with terrible consequences.
"So like... do y'all get blue Sylveons in Johto?"
"No, actually we don't get them there at all. He's a shiny from Kalos," you say, only partly bragging.
" no shit! I've never seen a shiny eeveeloution before!" He seemed suddenly really excited to bet petting Xinos, who was almost equally excited about the extra attention.
Remembering that Guzma is a leader of some unknown team, which just by its name sounds bad, you gently pick up Xinos and carry him to the bedroom you're staying in. You call out to him from the room, " you can leave now."
He walks in on you halfway pulling down your pants to change into pajama shorts. Your face turns bright red in a matter of milliseconds and he grins broadly, eying you up and down. "I mean, ya did get me dinner," He says winking, still looking at your thighs where there was bare skin just seconds before.
"WHAT THE HELL IS- GET OUT!!" You yell, still bright red. He does so, just taking his sweet ass time to do it. Once he closes the door you lock it and proceed with what you were doing before. Once you pull yourself together, you unlock the door and find him sitting on one of the couches in the living room. " so. Are you going to leave, or not?" You ask, and notice a burn mark on his jacket. You smile slightly and look at a very unhappy Tye.
"Not 'nless you're leavin' with me," he smirked. You sighed and turned back to the bedroom.
" you're gonna sleep out here, then," you said and closed the door behind you.
.....
You woke up around 2 in the morning, a terrible pit of dread quickly forming in your stomach. You ran out into the living room to find Guzma and Xinos both missing. Tye was fast asleep in the other bedroom along with Riek. You felt tears forming in your eyes as one of your most prized Pokémon was missing. You wake up the two and by the expression on your face, they understand something is terribly wrong. You get Tye in his pokeball and Riek to your side as you run out of the house with your bag. You run to Kukui's house and try not to look like something is wrong before you knock on his door. He opens it, rubbing one of his eyes.
"What's up, cousin?" He asks, still half asleep.
"Do you, uhh... know where Guzma lives? Like not his parents house, but like, anywhere else he might go?" He eyes you suspiciously before nodding and showing you on your map. You nod and tell him to have a good rest of the night and apologize for waking him up at this time.
So it seems like you're heading to the third island. Great.
