United Destiny: The Hero and The Hybrid

Chapter 19

The group walked into Geosenge Town noticing all the shops around the city selling evolution stones and other such things. Walking out of one of the shops a trainer holding a Sun Stone sent out his helioptile before giving the eager pokemon the Sun Stone. As soon as it touched the stone a glow surrounded it as its body glowed as it grew, its body lengthening and a disk-like fill forming around its neck.

Ash looked at the evolution as the newly evolved Heliolisk was joyful after finally getting to evolve. Korrina turned to Pikachu on Ash's shoulder as a question came over her after watching this. "Hey Ash you don't mind me asking are you going to evolve Pikachu?"

"Well, you see Pikachu doesn't really want to evolve," Ash explained as the Mouse pokemon gave a nod in agreement. Ash had been asked this question enough that he didn't really mind it anymore.

The talk about evolution made Braixen think for a moment about herself. When she evolved she did it by complete accident. It was a shock and after a few seconds after it was done she just accepted it. She had thought about evolving into Delphox but only sparsely and didn't give it much more thought into it. She pushed those thoughts away for later.

"Well, Korrina do you know where we are supposed to go for the Lucarionite?" Serena's question was met with Korrina shaking her head. Serena thought about this before an idea crossed her mind. "How about we split up, and each look for it in the shops?" She pulled out her device and showed a map of the town. "We'll meet here when we are done." She pointed at a small plaza on the other side of the town.

Ash and Korrina nodded in agreement with Serena's plan. The tree of them split up in the rather large town looking over the shops. Ash looked at one of the shops his eyes catching sight of a locked display case was a cut mega stone. "Is that Lucarionite?" Ash asked himself as he looked at them.

The vendor looked up from his post with a chuckle. "Lucarionite? No that's Galladite." That caught Ash's attention. Max was hoping to find Galladite for Ralts who wanted to become a Gallade.

Making up his mind Ash turned to the vendor. "How much for the Galladite?" That caught the vendor's attention who hadn't expected anyone to want it.

"I've actually been trying to sell it for months." he had a laugh. "My older sister gave it to me as a gift a few years ago and I kinda don't want to kept it in my house." He pulled out the key to the display unlocking it. "So I'll tell you what." He pulled out the mega stone and handed it to Ash. "If you know someone who would use it you can have it free of charge."

"I sure do a friend of mine been looking for it." Ash pocked the mega stone within the same pocket in his backpack as the mega stone Lysandre had given him. "Hey do you know were Lucarionite could be found?" It didn't hurt to ask after all.

The vendor thought about this for a moment as he tried to recall something. "I don't know about that but there are a few veins of mega stones scattered around the nearby caves." The vendor had a shrug at this. "It isn't much I know, but most of us don't venture deep enough in the caves to get them it's a bit of a maze down there."

It was worth a shot it's very likely that there was Lucarionite or probably other mega stones in the caves. Ash gave the vendor a thankful smile and turned to walk away with a wave. "Thanks for telling me."

Ash continued across the marketplace still looking for any signs of Lucarionite. "Hey so how are you going to give the mega stone to Max and Ralts?" Ash hadn't quite thought about that. He had just gotten it to help him out at the moment.

"I didn't really think about that when I asked to buy it." Ash thought about this for a quick moment and an idea came to him. "I could get in touch with Bonnie's brother so Max can meet up with us." He could then give him the Galladite and maybe check on his progress with Kalos' gyms.
