Frustration[]
Frustration is a horror story with multiple chapters about a trainer and his goal becoming a champion,
but all of this are ruined when a tragedy occurs in one of his partners
Chapter 1: Meet my team![]
As you see like every trainer, they have atleast three or four Pokemon with them or even one Pokemon only, as for me I have a full team of 6 Pokemon since I'm participating in the gym challenge to test my efforts in being a good trainer and perhaps, going for the champion himself, their names are Sparks(Charmeleon), Nella(Ninetales), Rose(Roserade),Oceania(Vaporeon),Phoenix(Talonflame) and Gardenia(Gardevoir).
Chapter 2:The fire gym[]
So far I got 7 badges which means I'll need one more before I face the elite four and then the champion himself, I'm kinda nervous about that final gym, because fire types can be insanely strong and I heard that the gym leader is an expert when it comes to fire pokemon.
I don't think I'll have to worry that much since I got Oceania(Vaporeon) to have a better effect agaisnt them, the other three could help aswell since they're also fire types, so the next day I took my bike and rode torwards the fire gym, I stood outside feeling my sweat appear on my forehead. I was really worried I won't be able to make It through but I had to take courage In my hands and give my best.
At the end of the gym, the leader stood but before I fought him I had to beat 3 other fire type trainers and so I did, I beat all of them, now it was a matter of time I had to battle the leader, first he told me that, "The true fire that burns doesn't come from your pokemon, but it comes from your heart which burns birghlty with faith and passion" and so the battle begun, it was an intense battle the fires kept coming, Oceania was eager and could avoid most of those attacks and we made it to his final pokemon, he yet again said this: "With fire and might you might succeed in your goals".
After that we went in a "hot" battle and as you might guessed, I won.
Chapter 3:Training days[]
On summer, I usually doing a small schedule to train my pokemon for a month, but this year's month I decided to give them an actual summer break.
we went to beach with other trainers too and even had some fun activities , the days were the best and they loved every moment of it, I even saw more water pokemon appear in the beach too.
While I was enjoying the view of the sea a person or should I mostly say a girl approached me for a pokemon battle, I could easily deny her offer but she seemed eager to stay and wait until I accept. so I did, since I thought it would be easier for me to let me be.
The battle didn't last long and eventually I won the battle she also didn't take it deeply tho and was glad she had a challenging battle after her last gym, so yes I guess I have a rival now, we spoke about our adventures the gym challenge and how we could take on the champion and which one of us is going to become a champion!
Chapter 4:The Final M̶o̴m̴e̸n̴t̶[]
My summer vacation was over and so my team was ready for the final moment, I made sure I had enough heal potions in case things get critical but I'm sure everything will go well, I'm kinda nervous but better have a clean mind and positive thoughs if I want me and my team succeed.
On my way there I met that red haired girl Alexa again, come to think of it we haven't spoke for a month and I was glad she made it here, strong trainers and those who believe in themselves and in their partners might succeed on their goals.
Anyway before the champion I had to face 4 elite trainers in a row, I'm not gonna lie they were tough atleast nella could handle the final pokemon, she was one of the strongest in my team I had her attacks are swift and the fire she breaths is insane.
and now the moment I've been waiting for, the chambion himself stands before me with a speech of advice he told me "Belief in your partners will help you build a good
Co-operation between them, if you trust your partner they will trust you too" and so we began the fight.
I sent out Sparks(Charmeleon) while he took out his absol I had I good advantage here since absol is a dark type but I was also worried if it had an effective move, fire and explosions were happening around us the people watching with intense look while we hang on our last pokemons, my potions are gone and we had 2 pokemon left and so I send out Nella and his pokemon was the one I never thought it could seal her fate, that pokemon was a Hydreigon.
I heard those were brutal Pokemon but because he was the champion I was sure that his Pokemon was trained well and it won't cause much effect on Nella, little did I knew that time I made my biggest mistake of my life.
I sent orders for attack despite her being tired, the Hydreigon began too, but it was faster than her it landed most of the attacks while Nella also could land some damage too, she was wooded but I was in deep thoughts about winning this and so I kept the presure on in hopes she'll defeat it but then I was caught off guard his Hydreigon used night slash and Nella fell flat in the ground motionless, I took out my pokeball to take her back in but.... she wouldn't come Back.
Chapter 5: It's Just An Illusion Isn't It?[]
I thought I did something wrong with my pokeball but I tried again but nothing, it just won't have any flash or something to indicate she went back inside, I was at loss of words I went near her to check on her and... she- ......she was bleeding!
I really panicked my pokemon wasn't fainted she literly got Injured bad, that last attack was fatal, the champion was in shock aswell when he saw what happened, it wasn't meant to happen!
There's gotta be an explanation to this!
I tried pick her up but she was heavy enough, the chambion took out his machamp for help and we went to the nearest pokemon center, Nella could barely breath and I was worried about her.
Once we arrived we let her with the nurses, I've been waiting patiently for about an hour until the nurse came to inform me... that.. she...didn't faint but....deceased...
I really burst with tears when i heard that, my partner who I had since Vulpix, died... I really coulnd't believe what was happening I went on her to see her for the last time, I suppose this was the last time we had a battle. I couldn't accept our journey with Nella was over.
The next day:
The mornings didn't feel the same without her, my other pokemon we're sad too because she was their friend and most important a member of my team, around the evening I got a call from Alexa saying she felt sorry for my loss and wanted to take a stroll to help make me feel better.
I had to move ahead too and visit her grave time by time.
It's been 2 months since then, I had no motivation to continue and beat the champion, I was still not mentally okay about what happened but one day saturday midnight on my way back home from the shop I was walking down the streets but in front of me in the darkness. there was some kind of a black figure standing before me, I thought it was some kind of a ghost pokemon from my neighbor since it likes to make pranks and scare people but tot, I don't know what was there so I took out sparks(Charmeleon) to deal with it in case it attacks, suddenly Sparks froze in fear it was like he seen a ghost but an actual one not a Pokemon type, he was too scared to move and couldn't hear my words I was saying, then I pulled my phone out and shine my flashlight on it.
The shadow figure was non other than my deceased pokemon Nella, I got frozen in fear as well. "Tha- That's Nella???" I said quietly, a cry of agony came from that spirit, it was like she was in pain still, suffering. "No" I said, "Nella I'm sorry I didn't meant to put a lot of presure on you". This however didn't work tho, she began coming closer growing, I snapped out of my fear and took Sparks and run away for my house, hoping that she won't follow me and be safe.
Chapter 6:Forgivess[]
I still can't get over what I've seen the other night, how or why did she do that, is it possible for a non ghost type pokemon to appear like this? I mean, there were roumours about a tower and a deceased pokemon was haunting it and it was a non ghost type as well,
and someone could make it to put it to rest.
. . .
. . .
. . .
Should I call someone about this? it wasn't my imagination right? because my pokemon also saw her too, I can't sleep well, I'm scared, for the first time in my life I never been that much scared, the agony, her bloody fur and eyes, it's really unnerving.
What should I do?!
Do I just ignore it and move on?
I can't....
There's no running from this, I have to face it and ask her for forgivess, she might understand I didn't mean it, tomorrow night I have to go the same path as I did and stand my ground and be brave enough to keep up, perhaps if I bring her favourite toy with me she won't be so aggresive.
(Tomorrow midnight)
I'm here, this is the road I met her, I'm still kinda afraid, No one else is around me, so I began walking after a few minutes suddenly the street lights began to flicker, and before I knew it Nella was standing behind me.
Soon enough I realised someone was behind me and it was a close call to torch me with that fire move, she is really determined to get revenge on me, I must speak up and apologise to her.
"Nella!" I said, "Please, you don't have to do that! I swear I didn't meant to, you were one of my beloved pokemon on my team!, I would always care about all of you!, I did my best to cure your bleeds but I was to late, please forgive me!".
She even used psychic moves on me but I was able to dodge them, Sparks came out from his pokeball to aid me, despite being also afraid he wanted to protect me, I told him to stop and do nothing, this is my problem to solve, no matter how much she wants to burn me.
She also didn't do anything once she her toy, Nella still growls at me, and slowly walks on me, I might have failed to calm her down, but still I was standing my ground staring at her just like she do.
We came face to face and so far she did nothing, was she waiting for an action from me? I did slowly rised my hand to touch her while also I was afraid she would bite off my hand, but she didn't she actually let me pet her, did I do it? is she calm now?! I sat a bit on my knees and hug her and telling her how stupid I was for letting this happen, how this was my fault to keep on going and now I had to face the consequences.
For a moment her body changed, the purple and dark aura she had was gone and she was just like before but her bleeds were still there, Nella could finally rest at piece as she moved to the afterlife, "Goodbye Nella, I'll miss you" I've said.
Chapter 7: A new friend[]
It's been a year since the incident but still, it felt like it was yesterday, seeing wild Vulpix and Ninetales just didn't felt the same to have another one, I myself felt unworthy to have another Vulpix with me.
A few months later when I went on a vacation at some islands, I've met a few people there who were eager to help me train my team, also I met a funny professor who I reminded him of a kid who also came for vacation and became a champion, I enjoyed my time being there, I also shared my moments with him and the tragedy I've had, he understood how hard can it be losing someone beloved, human or pokemon.
The next day the professor came at my door early in the morning and to tell me about going for a walk in the mountains, at first I was confused at why he wanted me to go there but in the other hand I accepted since I'm here for vacation and haven't seen the other islands aswell, we got a ship and set sail at the cold mountain.
While we arrived there, he mentioned about how differentsome pokemon appearances can be depending on their regions, and so when we're walking to the top of the mountain, there was a familiar pokemon but different than what I could think of, a white vulpix just like the snow.
I asked the professor why he brough me here, and said just you wait, he did a whistle and that white vulpix came running on our side, and then he took her and gave her to me saying: "Here, this is for you".
"What?!" I said, "No, I can't accept this", I was still very unsure to rise another Vulpix even if it was a different one, the professor knows how hard it was but he told me "you did what any trainer would do, but don't let the past still hurt you, I know this time you'll do much better and everything will be fine".
Still I was not sure yet, the little Vulpix was cuddling on me like it felt safe, you know I might had some soft side and couldn't deny her now, and so I accepted her on my team, it's still crazy how she is the same like Nella but kinda different, yet she is happy now, I know the perfect name for her too, welcome to the team Stella.
