A New Tale Of What The Future Holds

Chapter 24: Arrival in Kota City! Nash Winters Vs Grace Winters!

*Just outside the gate of Kota City, one day after last chapter *

Nash, Lucario, Buck, and Carmin run to the entrance of Kota City and see many windmills along the country side

Nash: We're finally here! Hello Kota City! Hello sixth Gym Battle!

Carmin: You've been pumped since you battled those Flying Type Trainers.

Nash: Heck yeah I've been pumped! Those four were really strong! I can't wait to battle their big brother! Hahaha!

Buck: Well first things first, we gotta head to the Pokémon Center and make sure all our Pokémon are in good health.

Carmin: Agreed. Plus we haven't had any lunch yet.

Nash: Okay then. Pokémon Center first, then lunch, then the Gym! C'mon Lucario!

Nash and Lucario run on ahead of Buck and Carmin

Carmin: There's no way he's Luka's brother. They have completely different personalities.

Buck: Most siblings do.

Carmin and Buck start chasing after Nash and Lucario

*At the Pokémon Center*

Nash places five Pokéballs on a cart, Carmin places her three, and Buck places his two on it. Lucario sits on the cart and Nurse Joy rolls the cart to the back room

Carmin: So where should we go for lunch?

Buck: Well I've read about this diner, it's actually pretty close to the Gym.

Nash: Sounds good to me.

A girl a little taller then Nash taps his shoulder. As Nash turns around he sees no one there and girl is behind him again. Buck and Carmin look at them confused

Nash: Okay who's tapping my shoulder?

He turns around again and sees Grace

Grace: Hey baby brother! Long time no see!

Nash: Grace!

Grace gets Nash in a headlock and gives him a noogie, Nash laughs loudly

Carmin: This is your older sister? Grace?

Grace: That's right. I'm sorry if my baby brother has been a handful to you guys.

Buck and Carmin: You have no idea.

Nash: So what're you doing in Kota City? I thought you were doing Pokémon Contests in Galar?

Nash gets out of the headlock and smiles

Grace: I decided to stop doing contests and find something more fun to do.

Nash: Like what?

Grace: It's a secret. Hehehe. So where's your Riolu that Dad told me about?

Nash: Well it isn't a Riolu anymore, and right now it's being checked out by Nurse Joy with all our other Pokémon. Where are your Pokémon?

Grace: They're all relaxing in the sun on the battlefield. Wanna see them?

Nash: Of course I do!

Carmin: Me too!

Buck: I'd like to see them as well.

Grace: Well come on.

They all head to the battlefield and see a Venusaur, Emboar, Inteleon, Grapploct, Gourgeist, and Mr. Rime relaxing under the sun

Nash: Hey is that Venusaur, by any chance.....

Grace: You betcha. Hey Venusaur! Look who it is!

Venusaur wakes up, sees Nash and smiles
