Ash's Story (Part 6: Unova)

Chapter 13

We're finally back in Castelia City, and Hugh says, "So this is Castelia City... It's much bigger than I'd heard! But, it doesn't matter! I'm going to find Team Plasma no matter where they run!"

Then we decide to exchange our Rotom Phone Contact numbers so that we could actually call each other. But when he notices a ship, we gulp a little. "That's a strange ship. A sailing ship in this day and age?"

After he leaves, I say, "No doubt about it... that might be Team Plasma's Frigate..."

Alice says, "It seems empty though..."

We decide to ignore the ship and head inside Castelia City. Now that the Venipede problem is gone, we can finally explore this giant place. We are starting in Oceanfront Road.

A Harlequin approaches us and says, "Welcome to Castelia City! It's the Castelia Harlequin Hunt! I bet this is your first visit to Castelia City."

"Actually no." We all say.

He wants us to find the three Harlequins, so we have to find them. One is waiting in the Medal Office, another is in Passerby Analytics HQ, and the third is hiding out in the Battle Company building. After we meet the three others, we talk to this clown again to receive a Rare Candy.

We also find that the Skyarrow Bridge is now closed. Some workers are inspecting the bridge, so it may be a while until it is open to the public again.

There is also the Royal Unova which we can only board in evening, and now is not the time. Cilan was really excited to go there, though. We can still take a ship to Liberty Garden from the Liberty Pier.

Once we arrive, we meet up with Professor Juniper, she says, "It has been a while since we last met. How's your journey?"

"It's fine, but what are you doing here?" I ask.

"We're researching for a Pokemon known as Victini. In the Unova Pokedex, Victini was assigned a special number: Zeo. I've heard the special number was assigned in the hope that Victini's power to bring victory would be shared with the Trainer who travels with this Pokedex..."

"So Victini is on this island? I want to meet it." Iris says.

"Me too. It will be exciting to see such a Mythical Pokemon." Cilan says.

But then we're hungry as we decide to make some macaroons for snacks. And while we're eating, I find that it is gone, much to our confusion. "Wait, where is the macaron?"

"You probably ate it. It won't disappear out of thin air." Golly says, and I decide to shrug it off as some trainers are approaching me for battles. And when I'm battling a trainer using Herdier against Hydreigon, but when it is sent to the wall, I can't believe what I'm seeing. A Victini appears and it's sharing its powers to Herdier. And when it uses Reversal, it defeats Hydreigon in one shot.

"That was a powerful Reversal you have there, Herdier!" Alice says.

After the trainers leave, I say, "I think that was the work of Victini..."

"Victini? What are you talking about?" Cilan asks.

"I saw it... Herdier gained power from Victini so that he could win that Hydreigon..." I say. "The real one is here!"

"So where is it?" Golly asks as we are trying to find it. I say, "It seems that Victini can also become invisible. It can do that."

"What should we do?" Alice asks.

"Cilan, you still have those Macaroons?" I ask, and Cilan nods. "I have some."

I throw the Macaroon in the air, and suddenly it floats before disappearing. When he falls to the ground, it shows itself.
