My food stores took another massive hit with the inclusion of Ru I had already prepared for this situation by stog up with food. I had him start his move training almost immediately but quickly figured out a problem. The reason Charmander had scratch rather than tackle as their starting move is because of their leg structure. Rather than being powerful and capable of pushing them forward quickly their walking legs were short and thick leaving them uo really run all that fast. Oher hand though they naturally had very sharp cws that made it easy to defend themselves from up close attacks.-

  This came with a rather rge dowo traveling that I found out immediately , Rune o be carried by someone or stored in the ball to make good time. Vul volunteered for that job by existing and Rune was very happy for his (un)willing sacrifice. I would have carried him myself but at four feet tall he was just a bit too big to sit on my shoulder. Over the week I trained Rune up using Tank as his sparring parthis got him up to a det level seven which from level one was actually goress sidering he hadn't actually fought yet.-

  During that time he learwo moves that showed me the effect of his elemental variation fug with his move pool. Rather than ember like he would have normally learnt Rune instead naturally learhundershock. I tell you now that that was a nasty move to get hit with even if it was ower wise. First off it was like most electric type moves distragly bright to look at and even looked painful. It looked like an arc of electricity traveled through the air and hit you.-

  Then it might cause your muscles to spasm untrolbly from the lingering energy which was how paralysis worked iy. Though I had to admit that the speed behind the move was nothing to scoff at despite it's rather ower. Apparently nearly all electric type moves shared the trait of being fast as hell which I made a mental o remember for the iable battle with Watson. I had timed my journey perfectly for the league season as I had nine months to hit every gym and make my way to the evergrande league.-

  trary to what the games would make you think you do not immediately go challehe elite four after the gym leaders. The true process of the league was gyms , tours of three different levels , elite four and finally champion. I haven't met a champion or elite four pokemo so I am not sure exactly what level that is so my guess is that challenging the elite four would require around level one hundred in pokemon levels. This made sense since fully evolved tyranitar were tier six danger level at minimum which should be around level sixty or so normally.-

  Anyways the league season sted for nine months and had a three month rest period before restarted again the year. Also there was no rule that said that a trainer had to get all the badges in a single season but that was sidered the mark of a talerainer so that was my current goal. From the own I figured it would only take me three days to reach Rustboro city. Assuming I get a challenge in that same day I arrive I'll be early for about a week since I left Littleroot two weeks before the season started to at for travel.-

  As we traveled through the forests I came across a rather funny sario that I couldn't help but chuckle at. See I was a couple hours out from the own and out from behind a tree this stocky dude in a blue and white outfit with a blue bandana with a stylized A on it jumped out. "Hand over all .. of ... OH SHIT!" The guy yelled fidently at first but horrified after seeing my team staring at him. "Break his leg , I don't care which." I said calmly and Vul immediately dashed forward and swiped left with a paw.-

  "CRACK! AAAAAAAAAAAAW!" I heard the sound of the bones snap followed by the dude screaming in agony. I ighat and walk up to the screaming man and grab his leg right where it broke. "Now then , you will answer ever question I ask or you won't like what happe." I say perfectly calmly. "You won't get nothin from me bastard!" the man says defiantly before pung me in my face to no effect. "Now why did you have to go and do that?" I asked while holding his leg bones out of p purpose before using healing on it.-

  The mans eyes grow wide as I do this and he begins tle violently but my grip was like a vid my body like wood. Ohere was no ce of any doctor fixing the crookedly healed bone I stopped using healing. "Now you will cooperate or I'm going to break y in a different spot and heal it improperly as well , your choice." I say while making eye tact. "Fuck! Fuck ok ok , just ask away you bloody monster!" The guy said when he saw me moving my hand lower on his leg.-

  "Why are you here exactly?" I asked calmly. "Me and about a dozen others were ordered to wait he routes to ambush rookie trainers for their valuables and pokemon if they aren't on the list." The man said nervously. I nodded in uanding "How strong is the person in charge of this operation of yours?" I asked calmly. "Benson? I don't fug know , strohan the rest of us , I think he's got three badges. I swear that's all I know!" the man said anxiously. "I believe you so I promise that if you answer one more question I will let you go." I said with a reassuring smile.-

  "Where is this operations base located?" I asked casually. "Please anything but that , they'll kill me if I tell!" The man begged and I began to squeeze his leg , hard. "WAIT! A warehouse on the south side of the town , please let me go now!" the man begged anxiously. I released his leg and walked away "Vul." I said and a bright red glow filled It's mouth. "Wait you promised!" The man said in horror. "I said I'd let you go and I will stand by that promise."-

  "But I never mentioned my pokemon , you just assumed they were included." I said and before the man could speak again a gout of fmes ed him not even leaving ash. "Looks like we are going to be making a slight detour in this own." I said with a smirk and my pokemon all speak in agreement. Nobody liked criminals in this world and pokemon were no exception to this rule. I balled the three pokemon that as I approached the town and walked into the gates calmly.
