  Y could remember when X was still a carefree, cheerful, happy boy. He wasn't that boy anymore. The media had ruined everything. It had ruined his life. When X became the junior champion of Kalos, the region cheered for the young boy, calling him a "child prodigy", and "the next League Champion". At first, the attention and such was fine, great even. As the youngest junior Champion in years, X got all types of endorsements, which brought in in some much needed income to his family. But nothing is ever purely good. After all, X was only 10 at the time. Most adults can't even handle the pressure, and when you put all that onto the shoulders of a child, it's no wonder X cracked. 

  She remembered the day that X changed--The reporters had been extremely bad that day. X, with his Pokémon, had been trying to fight though the reporters to his house. Kanga and Lil' Kanga were both severely damaged, but they both were fighting the hardest they could. They were doing fairly well, but then, a stray camera butted Lil' Kanga out of his mother's pouch. Y remembered those moments perfectly---Lil' Kanga flying out of Kanga's pouch, and Kanga cryin out. X turned around, and tried to get to his beloved Pokémon. Just as he crouched down to pick up the baby Kangaskhan, the media took that advantage, and pressed closer, crushing both X and Lil' Kanga. "X, how do you feel about the new multibattle style?" "Champion X, what would you say is you biggest inspiration?" "X!" "Champion!" X just squeezed his eyes closed, and tried to endure the chaos. X was breaking. And only Y could see. Then, it just got to much. "SHUT UP!!" The crowds went silent, and X pushed through the masses into his house. Since then, he had refused the come out. 

  "Hey...X?" Once again, no reply. Ever since that day, X had only left his room to go to the bathroom. Y's mom left plates of food in front of his door everyday. The Sky Trainer sighed. Not many people knew, but she had a small crush on the silent boy, admiring his battling skills and composure. She sighed, and knocked on the window again. This time X took notice, and slid something under the window. A note. Go away. Exasperated, Y banged more on his window (it's a miracle the glass hasn't cracked yet, honestly). When the Junior Champion obviously wasn't gonna answer, she gave up, and left. Oh X, please...don't do this...

  "Hey! Shuna! Trevor! Tierno!" Y jumped up, frantically waving at her friends. All of them were helping rebuild Vaniville Town. "Hey Y!" Shuna grinned and waved back, perky as always. "Have you seen X? Professor Sycamore wanted to ask about his Pokedex, and said he was coming back here!" Y looked confused. While the rest of the Vaniville friends had gotten on with their lives before the whole "Team Flare incident", X decided to stay a traveling trainer, and fill his Pokedex. He hadn't been back in several months, and hadn't mentioned anything about finishing his Dex. "...You guys are looking for me?" The four friends whirled around, seeing the mentioned trainer walking towards them. "X!" Shauna, bless her, sprinted over and gave X a huge hug, followed by Trevor, Tierno, and then Y. "Do you have the data?" Trevor inquired. Instead of answering, X pulled out the red and white machine, and handed to the redhead. "Thanks" With that, Trevor ran off, eager to analyze the data. "So..." Tierno asked, "How was the road treating ya?" X shrugged. Huh. So he's still as quiet as ever. Maybe quieter? The slightly awkward silence stretched out. Tierno ended it by grabbing X's hand and dragging him to the newly built Dance School, chattering excitedly the whole way.

  After showing X around the revamped town, Y and X were finally had some time alone. They sat on a bench silently. X seems more...reserved than the last time I saw him... In fact, X was starting to remind her of Green, and how cold and distant the Kanto Dexholder seemed at first. Y shivered. She did not want X to turn into that! "Hey X...are you okay?" X abruptly snapped out of his trance-like state, and looked up. "Yea...why do you ask?" "I donno, you seem quieter than usual" X just looked away and shrugged. "I guess...I'm not really fine...." Hm. This was new. Maybe X did change more than she thought. The old X would've never admitted that he was anything but fine. "Oh. What is it?" X hesitated for a bit, and Y thought he wouldn't answer, but then, he suddenly burst out, "Everything's so...normal now!" Y looked confusedly at the other trainer, and said, "Well, what do you expect? Team Flare's gone, and everyone just wants to lead normal lives." X wringed his hands out in frustration. It was rare to see him so worked up. "Exactly! Everyone's leading normal lives; you're a Sky Trainer, Tierno's at the Dance School, Trevor's doing research, and Shauna's a groomer! So...where does that leave me? I just...don't wanna get left behind..." The Sky Trainer stared at her friend, rolling her eyes. "You really think we're gonna leave you behind?" X hesitantly nodded. Y scoffed, and exclaimed, "then you're a huge imbecile!" With that, Y gathered her childhood friend in a hug. "You'll always be with us, no matter what!"
