Stepping onto Route 1, Cola and Farfetch'd were ready to begin training for the Academy, since battling would be a huge part of what they did over there, and they wouldn't last very long there if they lost every battle.
Looking onto the route, there were a lot of Bug, Flying and Normal types running around the place. Skwovets were fighting over berries, Starlys were flying up in the air, Tarauntulas were spinning webs, you get the idea. The whole route was very lively in a way.
"Alright, Farfetch'd! Who do we fight first?" Cola asked.
Suddenly, a round sheep Pokemon jumped out of the grass roaring, as if it wanted to fight. Pulling out his old Pokedex, Cola saw that this was apparently a Machamp, a fighting type Pokemon with four arms and underwear.
Wait, that couldn't possibly be right. Cola smacked the Pokedex and it quickly fixed to what the Pokemon actually was, a normal type sheep Pokemon known as Wooloo.
He really had to get a new Pokedex, especially since the one he currently had stopped updating years ago.
"Alright, guess this is our first opponent! Use Peck!" He ordered.
Farfetch'd ran up to the Wooloo and quickly pecked it with its beak, which caused the Wooloo to get knocked back a little. However, the Wooloo seemed completely fine after the hit.
Suddenly, the Wooloo began rolling towards Farfetch'd at an increased pace. It was planning on using Tackle!
Before either person could react, the Wooloo slammed into Farfetch'd, knocking it further than the Peck had knocked Wooloo.
"Agh! You okay, Farfetch'd?" He quickly asked.
Farfetch'd got up and, with the wing that wasn't carrying his leek, gave a thumbs up.
"Perfect, now let's hit him with our best move, Cut!" He commanded.
Farfetch'd dashed towards Wooloo and slashed it with its leek, causing it to wail in pain. That time it actually took damage, meaning Wooloo either didn't have a lot of health or it had taken a critical hit. Cola was willing to guess it was the first option.
"Alright, let's keep going! Hit him with another Cut!" He ordered.
As Farfetch'd dashed to perform another Cut, Wooloo suddenly curled up into a ball, and the attack deflected off of Wooloo just as it landed.
"What?!" He shouted in surprise. He looked at his Pokedex, and it showed Cola that the move Wooloo had just used was Defense Curl.
"Hmm... try using Sand Attack, Farfetch'd!" He suggested.
Farfetch'd shot a tiny cloud of sand at Wooloo, who suddenly broke out of its Defense Curl and began looking around confused as hell.
"Now's our chance! Use Cut!" Cola shouted.
Farfetch'd slammed its leek into Wooloo one last time, causing it to yelp in pain before flying back and causing a cloud of dust to kick up, causing nearby Pokemon to run away.
When the dust settled, Wooloo's eyes were nothing but swirls, indicating it had fainted.
"Alright!" He yelled with joy. Farfetch'd was also celebrating its victory, and Cola ran up to Farfetch'd and sprayed one of his Potions on him, healing Farfetch'd 's wounds.
"Yo, that was awesome!" A guy suddenly shouted. He looked about a year older than Cola, and he was wearing an orange tank top with a wolf symbol on it and black scratched pants. He had two X scars on his face, one on each cheek, and his hair was long yet messy. Besides him were two different Pokemon, which were a big, dark dog growling at Cola, as well as a tiny brown dog on top of the dark dog's head wagging its tail.
"Thanks!" Cola responded. "Who are you?"
"Oh, me? I'm Jace Rollum, but you can call me Jace! And these cool dudes by me are Mightyena, who's the big one, and Rockruff, who's the small one!" He said, Mightyena and Rockruff each barking as he said their names.
"Nice to meet you! I'm Cola, and this here is my partner Farfetch'd." Cola explained.
Jace's eyes widened as he saw Farfetch'd and the defeated Wooloo. "Aw, sick! You're telling me you trained that tiny bird to beat up a Wooloo? You should apply to the Potaro Trainer's Academy! I just recently got accepted there." He said as he pulled out the letter he had gotten, proving he was in fact accepted there.
"Actually, I got accepted there too! I just got the letter this morning." Cola explained.
"No way, man, that's crazy!" He yelled in surprise. " I didn't know someone else around here got accepted!"
"Well yeah, and I got a flight to catch in a couple days to get there, so I thought it'd be best to start training ahead of time." Cola replied.
"Me too, actually! I'm surprised I even got accepted, especially since I failed half my classes last year, but whatever! I'm glad I at least know someone who got accepted too!" Jace said.
"The feeling's mutual, not that I failed any classes or anything." He responded as he put his hand towards Jace. "Friends?"
Jace shook his hand. "Friends!"
It was official, the two trainers who had gotten into Potaro Trainer's Academy, the most prestigious trainer's academy there was, were now friends.
As Jace let go, his eyes suddenly lit up. "Hey, how about we battle each other? My Mightyena versus your Farfetch'd! I'd also add Rockruff to the fight, but a 2 on 1 might be a bit unfair." He suggested.
"Good idea!" Cola responded as he called Farfetch'd. "Farfetch'd! Get ready to fight again!"
The fight was on as Jace whistled. "Mightyena, it's go time!" He yelled enthusiastically.
Mightyena leaped in front of Farfetch'd and growled, ready to pounce.
"Don't go easy on me, now!" Cola shouted. "I know we just became friends, but I wanna see what you can really do!"
"Bet! This is gonna be epic!" Jace agreed.
And with that, the fight began.
