As I'm walking down a route, I see a figure far away. Could it be a trainer? I clench my bag and run towards it. "Heyyyy!!!!" I shout. The figure looks up. It's a girl with long, wavy dark hair, a plain blue T-shirt, and a cute dark blue miniskirt. "...Huh?" The girl says. "Are you a trainer, by any chance?" I ask her. "Um.. Yes..?" She replies, sounding a bit confused. "Awesome! Up for a battle?" I ask her. "I'm always ready for a battle!" She says, her mood suddenly changing. "Sick!" I send out Rowlet. She sends out a Popplio, one of the starters! "Wow, did you get this Pokemon from Professor Willow's lab?" "Yeah, I did!" She says. "Did you get that Rowlet from the lab?" She asks me. "Sure did! He's my first partner!" I exclaim. "Awesome! Now, let's start battling! I can't wait any longer!" "Rowlet, use Razor Leaf!" I shout. Rowlet dashes towards the Popplio and attacks it. "Popplio, Bubble Beam!" The girl shouts. "Pop! Popplio!" The Pokemon says. Rowlet got hit with the Bubble Beam and fell to the ground. "Come on, isn't water weak to grass?" I exclaim. "Well, no time for talking! Use Peck!" I shout to Rowlet. "Popplio, avoid it!" The girl shouts. Popplio dashes out of the way. "Agh!" I say. "Rowlet, use Peck again!" This time, Rowlet doesn't miss and hits the Popplio. "Popplio, tackle!" She yells. "Popplio!" The Popplio tackles Rowlet, but Rowlet doesn't fall this time. "Alright Rowlet, one last Razor Leaf!" Rowlet hits Popplio with an intense attack. "Pop!" Popplio shouts. "Oh no! Popplio!" The girl exclaims. Popplio faints. "I win! Woohoo!" I excitedly shout. "Yeah, whatever...." The girl says as she puts Popplio in its Pokeball. "Wanna walk to the Pokemon Center with me? Might as well heal up Rowlet, too!" I ask her. "Sure!" She says. We both walk to the Pokemon Center.

As we're there, I check the time. "7 P.M.. It's getting a little late. How about we go to the apartment across the street?" I ask. "Hm.. Sure! I'm up for that!" She responds. After Nurse Joy heals our Pokemon, we walk to the apartment and book a room. By the time we get to our room, it's already 8 P.M. "Wow, time flies!" I exclaim. "Yeah..." She says. "Well, I think I'm gonna put on my pajamas and get to bed." "Yeah, me too.." She responds. "Never knew I'd become friends with some random trainer that I battled.." I thought to myself as I got in bed. I close my eyes, ready for tomorrow.
