When a girl is gifted a Shiny Shinx as her first Pokémon they venture around the galar region conjuring up all sorts of trouble. But would she loose?
"Nah I'd spam."
Yami and her Pokémon had been traveling through Galar's Route Three and Four, taking on wild Pokémon along the way. It had been a thrilling journey full of unexpected challenges and victories. Now, as they moved on to Route Five, Yami felt a surge of excitement. She had her sights set on Hulbury, where the Water-type Gym Leader, Nessa, awaited, but for now, her focus was on the wild Pokémon that roamed the area.
"Alright, gang, we've got this!" Yami called to her Pokémon, her voice filled with determination. Indra, her shiny Shinx, trotted alongside her, his electric blue eyes scanning the area with curiosity. Kage, her shiny Rookidee, soared overhead, keeping a sharp eye out for anything that might appear. Even Kuro, her Galarian Zigzagoon, seemed to be hopping with energy, eager for the next adventure.
The tall grass rustled ahead, drawing Yami's attention. She paused and squinted, trying to catch a glimpse of what was moving.
"What was that?" Yami muttered. She motioned for her Pokémon to be ready.
A small, fluffy Pokémon emerged from the grass—a Stufful. It waddled out, its tiny arms flailing as if to show off its adorable, yet powerful, fighting spirit. Yami's Pokédex quickly sprang to life as she aimed it at the Pokémon.

"Stufful, the Flailing Pokémon. A Normal and Fighting type. The way it protects itself by flailing its arms may be an adorable sight, but stay well away. This is flailing that can snap thick tree trunks."
Yami raised an eyebrow, smirking slightly. "Well, this little guy looks tougher than it seems. Let's see what we're up against."
"Indra, you're up!" Yami called, throwing her Pokéball into the air. The shiny Shinx appeared in a flash of blue light, landing confidently on the ground. His tail flicked back and forth, eyes locked onto the Stufful.
"Indra, use Bite!" Yami commanded.
Indra charged at the Stufful, his fangs bared. He lunged forward to sink his teeth into the fluffy Pokémon, but Stufful wasn't going down that easily. With a swift, unexpected motion, Stufful flailed its arms out, pushing Indra back with surprising strength.
"Whoa!" Yami exclaimed, surprised by the Pokémon's ferocity.
Stufful shook its head, preparing to retaliate. With a gleam in its eyes, it stared at Indra and unleashed Baby-Doll Eyes, lowering Indra's attack power. The effect was immediate, and Indra's confidence wavered for a moment.
"Indra, don't let it throw you off! Bite again!" Yami encouraged.
But Stufful wasn't finished. With a loud grunt, it launched itself at Indra, using Tackle with full force. The impact sent Indra skidding back across the ground, and the Shinx let out a growl of frustration.
