Pokémon Memories and Journeys

The sun has completely disappeared from the horizon.And night fell in this city, Joban City.The school to the east of Tokiwa City has also been closed, and the students inside have all gone back at this time.

"Swiss, swish, swish," there was a sound of something moving in the grass.

"Huh!" Lilith emerged from the grass.There are a few leaves on the top of the head.

"Huoha, what happened to me today?"

Here's how it goes.Go back a few hours.

Lilith and Charmander have been wandering on Route 1 since morning.

"Why do I feel like we're going the wrong way?"

"Huo Ao, why don't you tell me that I told you not to walk in the grass and to follow the normal path. But you insist on saying that you want to observe nature.

"Hey, I'm not doing this for your own good. I'm walking in the grass to let you touch more elves so that you can improve your level."

"Hoo hoo, there's another Rattata here besides the Rattata, okay? I've been fighting Rattata all morning."

Lilith put her hands on her hips: "If you have the ability, go on your own, don't follow me."

"Human Huo, don't think you are that special, or you will get carried away."

"What?" Lilith gritted her teeth and waited for Charmander.

"Huo Ao, what do you want?" Little Charmander also stared back not to be outdone.

While the two were bickering, the sky suddenly darkened.There was a loud noise in the distance.The Pokémon in the grass seemed to be very uneasy.

Lilith narrowed her eyes. She seemed to have felt this feeling before. "This is repression"

The little fire dragon on the side also felt uncomfortable: "Fire Ao Lilith, what happened? It feels like something is oppressing me..."

Lilith chuckled, she just understood.She had definitely seen this kind of pressure: "Well, don't worry. You'll know later."

Lilith closed her eyes and quietly felt the airflow around her, releasing her spiritual power.Even the scraping of leaves did not escape her search.

Lilith pointed to the sky: "It's coming."

The moment Lilith raised her hand, a huge figure also appeared.In this sky.

Charmander also looked up to the sky.Charmander was stunned and couldn't make a sound.A giant bird Pokémon covered in gold and red feathers.

Its tail still trailed golden light, and its wings flapped gracefully in the air.Every slap exudes tremendous power. "Phoenix King"

Charmander couldn't believe his eyes. He actually saw the Phoenix King who was said to have the purest flame. He was the one that all Fire-type Pokémon admired and worshiped.

The Phoenix King flying in the air felt Lilith's energy wave, and "Arceus" was stunned for a moment.He also noticed Lilith on the ground looking at it.

Another slap, setting off a hurricane in the air.Phoenix King landed in front of Lilith.The little fire dragon on the side didn't even know what was happening. He actually saw the Phoenix King and the Phoenix King seemed to be approaching him.

Phoenix King looked at Lilith and sent out telepathy: "Who are you and why do you have the same power as Arceus?"

Lilith was a little surprised that the Phoenix King would specifically land next to her: "The Phoenix King is a divine beast created by Arceus himself."

Feng Wang became more serious: "You actually know, then you must be special." Moreover, Lilith felt very familiar to Feng Wang, as if she had seen her not long ago, but Feng Wang couldn't remember it no matter how hard he thought about it: "I seem to I’ve seen you.”

"Since you are the Phoenix King, we should have met. But unfortunately, neither you nor I will remember it." Lilith was very sure that she knew that her memory had been erased and that she had been with her during those two years. Pokémon will also have their memories erased.Phoenix King has some feelings for himself, which proves that Phoenix King is also one of the Pokémon that has been in contact with Lilith in those two years.

"Really? That's really a pity. I feel your energy fluctuations are the same as Arceus, so you must be no ordinary person." Phoenix King is also aware of current affairs, and it just came here to confirm.

"Phoenix is ​​a Pokémon that brings happiness to people, but you only look for humans with the purest hearts. So what are you here to look for today?"

Phoenix King admired Lilith's sensing ability: "That's right. Celebi told me that today is the day for a young man with a pure heart to set out. However, Celebi doesn't seem to be talking about you."

Lilith knew that she no longer had a pure heart, and that everyone who had not seen the "negative world" did not deserve to have the purest heart: "That really disappoints you."

Lilith suddenly thought of something again.The boy who hung around her all day long and threatened to become a Pokémon master appeared in her mind.

Pure Heart? He seems to be a good match.Yes, the boy Lilith was thinking of was Xiaozhi. "But I think you will definitely meet me today." Lily couldn't help but feel that there were still many coincidences in this world.

"I'd like to lend you some good words." Phoenix King shook his wings again, and a feather that also exuded golden light fell from his body. The feather floated into Lilith's hand: "Destined person, although you are not the person I am looking for today. I can feel the purity hidden in your heart. Although this is not the first time we have met, this can be regarded as a meeting gift from me to you."

The Phoenix King flapped its wings, and a golden feather fell from it.

Lilith subconsciously raised her hands to catch it, and the feathers were flooded with golden light.Lilith had to say that Feng Chang was really generous, even though he didn't know her, he gave her this great gift.

Anything that belongs to a mythical beast will contain immense power, including of course Ho-oh's feathers.Since it intentionally gave this feather to Lilith, this feather must have the power and aura of the Phoenix King on it.

It looks like just a feather, but it has great uses.If the feathers exuded aura, then ordinary elves would definitely be suppressed.In an important moment, this feather might be able to save a life.

Phoenix King chirped to the sky and flew into the air again.It doesn't just give feathers to others casually. It takes a lot of effort to intentionally pluck feathers.In addition, feathers are a symbol of the Phoenix King, and not everyone can get them.

But Phoenix King felt that giving it to Lilith now was the right choice. This was the intuition possessed by a divine beast.

The fluctuations in the air returned to normal.The little Charmander beside him was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Lilith looked at Charmander who was still standing aside, with a flash of appreciation in her eyes: "It's not bad. I wasn't scared away by the pressure released by Phoenix King. I thought you had escaped."

"Huoha, do you know Phoenix King?" Lilith's performance just now made Charmander even more sure that Lilith was extraordinary.

"Well, maybe I know him, maybe he doesn't. I lost my memory for two years."

Charmander was a little angry at Lilith's indifferent attitude: "Huoha. Do you know what the Phoenix King represents in the hearts of our Pokémon? It is a mythical beast. The mythical beast protects all elves."

"Is it a mythical beast?" Lilith lowered her eyes, and the bloody picture appeared again in her mind. "Mythical beasts may not be able to protect you, just like"

Charmander saw that Lilith's reaction was a little abnormal: "Hey, Fire. What's wrong with humans?"

Lilith hid her memories: "It's nothing. I just want to say that your potential is good. Maybe you can grow to have the same flame as it in the future. But you are still far away. I guess, you are now Even Rattata may not be able to defeat it.”

"Hana, there's no need to say more." Charmander rarely said anything back.Lilith saw Charmander looking at the feathers on her hand with a very longing look in his eyes.

"Huoha is so beautiful." The little fire dragon couldn't bear to look away from the feathers.

Lilith looked at Charmander and chuckled.A good idea suddenly occurred to me.Quietly close your eyes and start to gather your energy.

"Well, I haven't used my power for a long time." It was a familiar scene again.A lot of white light clusters gathered around Lilith.These light groups followed Lilith's thoughts and converged on the Phoenix King's feathers in her hand.

The white light leaned into the feathers and gradually dyed them red.A very dazzling and beautiful red.

"As expected of the Phoenix King" Lilith murmured.

After 1 minute, the red color of the feathers was almost completely absorbed by the white light.Lilith glanced around, and her eyes fell on an inconspicuous stone. "What a blessing." Lilith's eyes lit up when she saw the stone. This was exactly the container she was looking for.

"Huoha, what are you doing?" Charmander was immediately fascinated by the flame controlled by Lilith. Yes, it longed for this kind of flame, a beautiful and pure flame.

"Do you like the Phoenix King's flames?" Even though Lilith already knew it, she still asked Charmander.After all, speaking out your desires is also the starting point for success.

Charmander's eyes were filled with flames: "Fire, of course."

Lilith was very satisfied with the answer, and it seemed that she was about to start finishing the work.The fiery red light group was attracted to the stone, and in an instant, the stone began to absorb the light group.

Ordinary stones are also dyed redder and redder like the white light just now, and finally reach the highest state.

Even if you don't touch it, you will find that the temperature of the stone is also rising. The high temperature of the stone causes a large amount of white smoke to appear in the air.

After a while, the stone seemed to absorb enough energy.There was a loud bang.Then it started to burn, and the flames filled Charmander's sight, and Charmander yearned and longed for it.

Flames shot into the air, but surprisingly, none of the surrounding vegetation was ignited by the flames.This flame seems to be in another space, releasing huge power.

"The fire is so beautiful." The little fire dragon stared blankly at the pillar of fire soaring into the sky.At this moment, it is completely immersed in this flame.

"You have to believe that you can do this in the future." Lilith stood beside Charmander at some point, and what she had done had been completed.

To be honest, Lilith was also shocked.It turns out that Phoenix King's power is so great.And this is just one of Phoenix King's feathers.

Not long after, the towering pillars of fire disappeared in an instant.Look at the red bead on the ground.There was still a faint heat emanating from the surroundings.

Lilith stepped forward and wiped the sweat on her face.Picking up the beads: "It's really scary. It takes so much effort to digest Phoenix King's power in such a good container."

"Huo Ha. Human, what do you mean? This has been like this from the beginning. Why does even Phoenix King know you? What kind of abilities do you have?"

Lilith played with the beads in her hand: "Well, I'm not as great as you think. But I'm just new to the transformation of power."

"Huoha Power Transformation"

"That's right. I first transformed the Phoenix King's power into my own energy, and then controlled it and input the carrier of the flame power into this stone."

"Huo Ha. He is obviously a human being. How could he be able to withstand the power of God." The little fire dragon still found it difficult to accept. This world view is too huge.

"Well, believe it or not, it's up to you. And you don't need to know about my power." Lilith said with a smile.Then he flicked the bead in his hand and landed accurately on Charmander's paw.

"Here you go, the flame you want." Lilith had already planned this.Extract the flame component from the feathers and give it to Charmander.She would keep the remaining life force and Phoenix King's aura for herself.

"Huoha, give it to me." The little fire dragon really didn't expect that one day, it would see the Phoenix King and get the Phoenix King's flame.

"Well, that's right. However, you are still too weak now. It will take a long time to control this ability. If you are desperate for strength, there will definitely be an acceptable disaster. So before that, you Just work hard and improve your abilities." Lilith taught her attentively.

"Human Huo. Oh no Lilith, thank you." The little fire dragon had made up its mind at this time. It would become stronger no matter what.Strong enough to accept the flames of the Phoenix King, strong enough to have the same level of power as Lilith, strong enough to protect Lilith.

Charmander didn't know why he had this idea. What he really wanted was to be by Lilith's side.Be her strongest partner and accompany her through all difficulties.

Lilith read Charmander's mind without conscience.I felt very happy, even a little inexplicably moved.I haven’t felt this way for a long time.

"Let's go quickly, it's already noon." Lilith shook her backpack and continued walking forward.

"Huo Ha, let's go..." The little fire dragon held the stone tightly in his hand.

"Let me ask you a question."

"Huo Ha asked"

"So where are you going?"

""

The journey is ongoing, and the travelers will not stop at this moment.Even on an ordinary road, you may encounter some extraordinary things occasionally.Every traveler has been traveling for several or more than ten years. Even if he has seen countless scenery, the most beautiful road is still the road he started from.

Even Lilith may return to this road in a few years. It would be interesting to think back to her first trip and the words she shared with her first partner.

When you are weak, you will look up to the strong, but when you are truly strong, you will want to go back to your old self and start on the road to becoming stronger again.

Everything has cause and effect.Because you set foot on this path, you will create the possibilities on this path.

The surroundings seemed to be quiet, and Charmander took a deep breath.The closed eyes suddenly opened, their eyes full of sharpness.Like a sharp sword, it pierces through the enemy on the opposite side.

The enemy was frightened by this majesty and took a few steps back.Charmander chuckled: "You are too weak." He pushed his feet, jumped in the air, did a somersault in the air, and waved his sharp claws powerfully.Finally, it landed perfectly on the ground, raising a cloud of dust.He shook his head handsomely.

"Well done. Congratulations on knocking out the 33rd Rattata." Lilith sat on a larger rock and clapped her hands, as if nothing happened.

The little fire dragon has a cross symbol on its head: "Have you had enough fun, Fire?"

"You've had enough fun, this is for you to practice."

"Huoha, I mean why is it still Rattata all the way?" Charmander is really not satisfied with his opponent.Even though it can only be considered a novice elf now, it can even stun a Rattata with one claw.

"Well. It's important to lay a good foundation. I'm doing this for your own good too." Lilith comforted her.

"Huoha, are you sure it's not because you got lost? I don't think there would be so many Rattata on a normal road..."

"Well, no way." Lilith glanced elsewhere guiltily.

"Huaha, I don't want to practice with such a weak Pokémon anymore. I want to challenge a powerful Pokémon. I want to use the flames of the Ho-oh earlier."

I'm really impatient.Lilith put away her smile: "Do you think you are strong?" Lilith felt from just now that Charmander was quite confident, which might be a hidden danger.

"Huoha. Huh, of course it's much stronger than these wild ones."

Lilith really laughed. What she wanted was that Charmander had such a mentality.Otherwise, how could she make Charmander remember it deeply?

"In this case, you come and try to attack me. Of course I won't use my special ability. Whoever encounters the opponent first will win. How about"

"Huoha. Are you kidding?"

"You can also treat it as a game." Lilith continued to sit on the stone with no intention of standing up.

"Huoha. I know you are a special human. But are you sure you can compete with a Pokémon without any power?"

"Yeah. Just go ahead and attack." Lilith put her hands on the stone and carefully observed Charmander's expression.

Charmander struggled internally. He was too bored now and had no other battles except fighting Rattata.

But Lilith doesn't look like someone with very strong physical skills, just some self-defense skills at most, and she's a girl.

In fact, Charmander was right. Lilith was indeed not very powerful. She just wanted to have the ability to protect herself after that incident, so she intentionally strengthened some of her abilities and learned a few simple moves.If it's the only thing that stands out, Lilith is pretty good with daggers, which also gives her an extra layer of security.In short, they are ordinary people who are better in individual aspects.

Lilith Charmander must not be injured.As long as the control is not tight, it will be fine.Little Charmander made up his mind: "Huoha. Let's compare."

"Very good. Come on." Lilith sat on the stone and looked at Charmander quietly.

"Huoha. Don't you carry weapons? Don't all humans have them?"

"Pfft. Then you think highly of me. I probably only know how to use a dagger a little bit, but not much else. And I don't want to take out a knife casually."

Seeing Lilith sitting on the stone with such a nonchalant look, Charmander suddenly became angry for some reason.

"Huoha, then what's the point of this game?" Charmander kicked his legs.Rush towards Lilith.

Lilith narrowed her glasses.It's really fast and has a very good physique in every aspect.This is why Lilith thinks Charmander has talent.

The running of the little fire dragon stirred up some green grass, forming a stream of wind.No matter what kind of battle it is, Charmander's eyesight is particularly good.Its eyes always convey a message, I want to become stronger, I want to win.Lilith also particularly likes this.

Charmander has prepared his claws, and the claws appear to be even more powerful as they accelerate.

It looks like the distance is almost there.Charmander jumped into the air and prepared to attack Lilith with a pounce action.

Charmander decided to put away his claws when it was too late, otherwise he would just fall on Lilith.Will not cause injury.

However, Lilith was the enemy before.This is the advantage of Charmander. Even if it is a weak opponent that he despises, he will use all his strength once the battle begins.

Charmander thought to himself, and then clawed at Lilith with all his strength.

"There are a lot of weaknesses." Lilith was not worried about Charmander.

The moment Charmander was about to touch Lilith.Lilith bent forward slowly.Charmander's target suddenly disappeared, and the enemy could no longer be seen in his eyes, only a stone.

"What the hell?" Xiao Charmander screamed inwardly.But it couldn't stop the car, and it couldn't keep up with the speed it had just fallen.

"Bang" Charmander hit his head directly on the stone.There was a huge noise.

"Fire. It hurts." The little fire dragon thought that his claw would definitely win.He didn't leave himself any chance at all.Have you ever thought about the consequences if this claw does not succeed.

It took Charmander a few seconds to wake up.Sitting down on the stone.

A hand suddenly slapped Charmander on the head: "Okay. I won." Lilith never walked away from Charmander, she just dodged.After seeing Charmander regain consciousness, he met Charmander according to the rules of the game.

Charmander was still in a fugue: "Huoha. I lost."

"Yes, you lost."

Charmander lowered his head a little aggrievedly, this was his first defeat.And he lost at the hands of his own trainer.

Lilith opened her backpack, took out a bottle of wound medicine, and applied some on Charmander's injured forehead.Spread gently.

"You are actually very strong. Your speed and strength are the strongest among the Charmanders I have ever seen. It is rare that you also have a strong heart and love to fight."

Charmander listened to Lilith the words. "You have also met Phoenix King today. You have also understood Phoenix King's power. Phoenix King is indeed powerful. I understand your desire to become stronger quickly. Strong enough to reach out your hand in admiration."

"But it doesn't mean that you have defeated a Pokémon that is more powerful than you, it means that you have grown up. Getting stronger is mainly about comparing yourself with yourself to see whether your strength has really improved. It is the trainer's job to think about strategies. What you have to do is to be able to fully implement the trainer's command. A general special move command cannot simply launch a special move. So speed and strength alone are completely insufficient."

"In the battle just now, what you lacked was observation, reaction, and precision. Your own speed is enough, but the speed of using special moves is still very slow. I also stayed when avoiding your attacks. It's a flaw, but it's a pity that you didn't notice it. Not only did you not notice it, you also lost your balance, which directly resulted in you not having a second chance to attack. You didn't leave yourself a way out, which was the most critical reason for your failure."

Charmander listened carefully, and at the same time admired Lilith's analytical ability: "Huo Ha. You are a new trainer."

"Didn't I say that? I don't know how to be a trainer. But I have explored the word strength."

"Oh, by the way, although you have failed now. But I still want you to see your results today."

After a while, a gust of wind blew and the branches swayed.A leaf floated down.

"Charmander uses its sharp claws to split the leaf into two pieces." Charmander thought to himself that he definitely couldn't do it. With such a dynamic and such a small target, it was really hard to believe that it could cut it.

Charmander gritted his teeth and jumped. "Huoha" Charmander felt his claws hit something.

Soon the leaves that were split into two fell down in front of the little fire dragon.It achieved this goal that might have been missed by one second, and it actually missed it.Charmander looked at Lilith in confusion.

"You did it as expected. It seems like this kind of regularly pulsating object can be your target."

"Huoha, I never could do it before. Why is that?"

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't say you should do your best." This is the first step of Lilith's plan. "Ratada is characterized by its small size and fast movement. I will let you fight Rattata." It’s also to cultivate your accuracy. I want you to get used to using your body to sense targets. I want Ratada, who can be seen everywhere, to be your sparring partner. It couldn’t be better. Doesn’t it feel like you have mastered something?”

Charmander mused.It does feel like I can target enemies faster now.

Charmander waved twice in the air, wishing he could control his claws more freely and use them freely.Did Lilith really arrange for herself to take this path on purpose?

"Well, actually, I'm really lost." Lilith raised her hands, she really wanted to admit it.

"Huoha, don't read people's minds casually, okay?"

"Understand"

The weather didn't feel as clear as before, and there was an incongruous dark cloud floating in the blue sky.It looks like it's going to rain at any moment.By the way, some cold wind blew.

"Hey, it looks like it's going to rain. If you don't want to get soaked in the rain, go quickly." Lilith urged Charmander, who was still looking at the Phoenix King's beads.Is it really okay for her to give it that bead?

"Huoha. So annoying, human..."

However, as expected, Lilith did not guess the weather wrong.After a while, light rain fell from the sky, and there seemed to be some lightning among the dark clouds.It looks like it will be a relatively heavy thunderstorm.

"Hey, do you want the elf ball back?" Rainy days are very unfavorable for fire Pokémon, especially for fire Pokémon that are not yet powerful.Another heavy rain and it will definitely make you sick.The most serious thing is that Lilith has not heard of cases where fire Pokémon fell ill after being exposed to heavy rain.

Charmander turned his head and swung his tail in front of him, trying to protect the flames on his tail. "Human Huoha, I am the only Pokémon you have. What if I encounter other wild Pokémon when I go in and you are too late to let me out?"

"Pfft, you're worrying." In fact, Charmander also cares about Lilith.But given its character, it wouldn't say it directly.

Boom, boom, boom, a thunder suddenly appeared in the air.

"what"

"Fire"

Both of them were startled by the loud noise.

"Why was there such a big thunder suddenly?"

"Huoha is scared to death, scared to death." Charmander glanced around and suddenly saw a flash of violent lightning not far away, "Huoha. Lilith, look."

Lilith looked towards where Charmander was pointing, and indeed the unknown electric sparks on the ground resonated with the thundering weather in the sky.Make a loud noise.That's why Lei is so deafening.

"This electricity is very good." Lilith observed the golden current that still existed not far away from a distance.

"Would you like to see the fire?"

"Forget it. Maybe this is just another trainer training the electric elf. Or the trainer was attacked by a large group of Pokémon or something, and then in the crisis, the electric elf burst out with such great power. ."

"Huoha, your imagination is a bit big." Charmander was speechless at Lilith's second guess.But by chance, Lilith seemed to have guessed it right again.

Not far away, the same boy was working hard towards his goal of being an author.

"I'm just thinking about it. Let's go." After regaining her mood, Lilith drank Charmander and continued to move forward.

"Hello Huoha."

"By the way, I suddenly want a good electric elf or something."

"Huo Ha. You haven't even caught an ordinary one now. Just worry about it for now.

“There’s a Rattata ahead.”

""

That's what the so-called travel is, talking and laughing along the way.In the process of playing, it is full of my own growth.Also make yourself more and more mature.

The rain was falling quite hard, and Lilith deliberately walked in front of Charmander.Help it pawn off some rainwater coming from the front.

The first day of travel, the first experience.Both Lilith and Charmander took the first step towards their goal.Lilith also knew that the wheel of "possibility" was still spinning.Where will this turntable stop?

Lilith shook her head and put aside these distracting thoughts. Since she was already traveling, why not try to enjoy the trip.

After going through all kinds of hardships, we are finally one man and one beast on path No. 1.No matter how many leaves are on your head.I looked at Tokiwa City, which was brightly lit because it was already dark.

"We're finally here. Joban City."

"Huoha. So, how many detours have we taken?"

"Well, it turned out good. That's it."

"Huo Ha, please hurry up and enter Viridian City."

"Well. Let's go."

In just one day, Lilith and Charmander have developed some tacit understanding.They are all growing up.

There is another page like this in the sketchbook.A girl and a Charmander on the road.

April 4 Sunny with occasional showers

In the bright spring.I actually embarked on a journey as a new trainer.Charmander is my first elf as a trainer.It's a very smart Pokémon.In fact, the journey was better than I expected.
