Pokemon -OHANA no Monogatari-

Chapter 19: "The Next Step In The Hidden Moves"

OHANA (緒花)

I remember it now, the Cinnabar Island Shrine has been destroyed by the volcano. Now that it is no longer exist, Fuchsia City Shrine is the one and only shrine that works for initiating hidden moves.

"Anyways, those shrines that I mentioned here in Kanto and  Johto are the only shrines that will work on initiating hidden moves," I  said.

Mayuki nodded as a sign that she is listening.

"The next step is you need to write your name and your Pokemon's nickname in a special type of paper," I said.

"Does your Eevee has a nickname?" I asked.

"She don't have," she answered.

"Then you have to set a nickname for your Eevee, otherwise, the hidden moves initiation won't work," I said.

"Look at my Charizard, it has a nickname, as well as my Sudowoodo," I added. "I always set a nickname for my Pokemon."

"So your Flareon has a nickname too?" Mayuki asked.

"Yes," I answered.

"The next step, you must be in the middle of the shrines area. Like, you need to form a circle, a circle must be drawn using a black oil. The trainer must be in the left side while the Pokemon is in the right side, and the special paper that you and your Pokemon's name written on it must be in the middle," I explained.

"After that you need to memorize some chants and then recite it while meditating," I added.

"W-w-w-wait!" Mayuki interrupts. "It's kinda too much, wait! Let me process my brain a little bit!" Mayuki rubs her head.

We are at some huge pond here in the Viridian Forest, fishing. Mayuki lends me her super rod.

I stopped explaining on how to initiate hidden moves because Mayuki is having a hard time syncing it up the information that I was telling to her.

For now, we are just chilling.

"I can't believe you don't have a fishing rod," Mayuki said while fishing. "I'm glad I brought a spare," she added.

"I used to fish before, but I don't have a fishing rod. I was just borrowing from my fellow Kimono Girls when we're having a bonding," I said.

"Ahh I see," she said.

While we are in the middle of fishing, my stomach started to growl which caught Mayuki's attention.

"Good timing! We are fishing right now, hoping to get a Magikarp," I said.

"You eat a Magikarp?" Mayuki asked.

"Yeah, wait! Don't tell me you haven't eaten one before?" I asked.

"I did, but nah ahh!" Mayuki said. "It's disgusting! Eating a Pokemon, it's a no! No!" She added.

"Huh? What do you mean you don't eat a Pokemon? Aren't the meat and fish we are eating a Pokemon?" I said.

"Oh yeah! You're right," Mayuki suddenly contradicted herself while putting her index finger to her chin.

"But no! I'm not gonna eat a Magikarp, it's disgusting!" She said while shaking her head horizontally.

"Well suit yourself, I'm gonna solo this one once I caught one," I said.

"Are you crazy? Are you seriously gonna eat a Magikarp? It got nothing but scale and bones," she said.

"No it's not, there are parts of a Magikarp's body that are edible," I contradicted.

"Okay? Maybe there are parts that are edible but it will take you some time to make some dish out of a Magikarp," she also added.

"I caught, cooked, served, and ate a Magikarp before so I know the fastest way on how to make a dish out of a Magikarp," I countered.

"Besides, the onigiri you ate with me the other day are filled with Magikarp's flesh," I added.

"Wait what!" Mayuki said.
