Reader POV

As we made our way to the Laverre City Gym, we decided to stop for a brief spot of lunch that Clemont, Serena and I had made together. The food went down an absolute treat! Especially with Floette, Pampour and my newly evolved Altaria. However, the peace was soon gone as Dedenne shocked Chespin with discharge, and also ended up shocking floette, Hawlucha and I in the process, as Floette had a vine wrapped around my wrist and was sitting on top of Hawlucha, to make sure I wouldn’t wander off.

Goodra was kind enough to sort out the issue between our pokemon, which was nice to see. After we had packed away, a bellsprout ran up to goodra, which goodra responded positively. Next, a man came up to goodra, like they were old friends of sorts. Ash then introduced himself as Goodra’s owner. Then the others introduced themselves, but when it came down to me, the man chuckled and said.

“Wait a second! You’re the kid who messed up his freestyle performance in the showcase.” My heart wretched at those words.

“Yes… That’s me.” I mumbled.

We were next all invited to the wetlands, Goodra’s home. However it seemed rather uncomfortable with the idea. 

Upon our arrival, it was wet, and icky, and disgusting! I hated every moment of it. But goodra now seemed pleased that it was back in its home. The old man then told us the story about the healing properties of the water in the wetlands. Apparently, a florges was behind the attack. It made me think about my own floette, and how it could never do something like that. Next, a bunch of goodra’s friends had joined us. It was such a cute sight, seeing goodra impress his friends. It quickly ended as a swana had alerted the huge dragon type about some sort of attack that was about to take place. Keanen, the old man, had advised us not to get involved, but ash was determined to help. So that’s what we all ended up doing.

It was as if all chaos had broken loose. Swarms of bug types had infiltrated the wetlands, Servipers setting things on fire, Beedrill using pin missiles on anything and everything. There were so many pokemon to fight. However we decided to hang back for the time being. This was due to the wetland pokemon having a slight advantage. I had released floette from its pokeball beforehand just in case we needed to fight. Suddenly, the huge, blue flowered florges had jumped from its Yanmega. 

“Ash, I don’t have a good feeling about this one.” I said.

“How so.” Ash asked, Clemont gasped as he realised how dire the situation was.

“Florges is a pure Fairy type, which has a substantial advantage against Goodra, a water and dragon type.” I said. “Florges knows a lot of Grass type moves as well.”

My theories were correct, as Florges set up a grassy terrain, followed with a Solar beam. which left Goodra in a tricky situation. But amazingly, Goodra managed to pull through by using Ice beam, which sent the Florges packing.

However, the joy didn’t last long, as Goodra was hit with two other attacks. Shadow ball and Psybeam. We retreated, but before we could, Florges had eyed up my floette and taken it with a vine whip. I wanted to try and get it back but they managed to escape.

That night was rough, I spent no time asleep, just outside, on the decking, to just be hopeful to catch a glimpse of my pokemon. Pikachu also ended up getting captured by the the bug types.

“Pampour use Ice beam!” I shouted, throwing my pokeball. Pampour burst out of it but wasn’t able to get a hit in as it was taken down by a pin missile. I picked it up to get on my shoulder, fed it an oran berry and began to run.

We decided to chase after the pokemon, as Goodra managed to get up and fight. We chased them down and I was in the front.

“You give me back my floette right now!” I screamed. I ran towards the pokemon, merely dodging their attacks. I ran into the cave where the water was coming from and noticed that the Florges was holding two Floettes, one seeming really sick, and the other, being my floette.

“Floette!” I ran towards it and was knocked down by a seviper using a flamethrower. My floette seemed worried for my safety. But it was held back by the florges.

“Y/n!” Ash and bonnie approached me. They helped me to my feet. That was until team rocket had arrived. They did their whole speech about “Protecting the world from devastation” shit.

They next swooped in and took Floette for themselves. This made me so angry. They next got away in an aircraft. We ran out of the tunnel, I didn’t speak, only acted. 

“Altaria! Take me to that ship!” I threw my pokeball and jumped onto my big beast of a pokemon, Altaria. We were taken up to the ship, with Ash, florges and Goodra. “Return for now.”

Team rocket ended up shaking the plane to try and get us off of the ship, My hand slipped and I ended up falling away, but ash managed to catch me.

“Ash! Can I trust you to get floette back?” I shouted over the wind.

“Of course I’ll get it back!” He said.

“Good! Now let go!” I was met with a confused expression.

“Are you crazy!?” Ash screamed.

“Yes! Now just let go!” I laughed, Ash next let go of me and I came falling down. Clemont was there to catch me, but I kinda landed on top of him.

“Thanks for breaking my fall Clemont.” I helped him up as we watched the plane from below.

“Do you think that this is time for you to open the gift professor Sycamore gave you?” Serena asked.

“Nah.” I looked back at her. I then looked back towards the aircraft, an explosion had happened. “Maybe actually yeah!”

I reached into my pocket and tore open the present, Inside it were two pieces of jewelry, Both with slots which said.

“Enter mega stone here. And key stone here.” I said. I smiled at the gift and took out the correct stones from my overalls front pocket. I attached them into the correct pieces of jewelry. They ended up looking like this…

(I tried my best to make something somewhat original lmao. The panjas bracelet is what our reader wears, Its kinda like the one that Juleka wears in Miraculous. and the hair piece is what Altaria will wear on its head.)

…After putting the bracelet on, and also attaching the mega stone to Altaria, we saw that the explosion had gotten bigger. Suddenly, we saw ash falling from the aircraft, with floette in tow and all of the other pokemon.

“You ready Altaria?” I asked. I got a nod in response.

“You’ve got this Y/n!” Clemont cheered me on.

“Altaria! Take the audience by storm! Show them your presence! Mega Evolve!” I twirled around and opened my arms wide, a blinding light shone from my bracelet and connected with Altarias’ Mega stone. A field of light surrounded it. Altaria next burst out of its light and flew at lightning speeds towards the falling friends. It managed to catch all of them, even the heavy Goodra.

“That was awesome!” Serena and Clemont cheered, as the others came gracefully to the ground. Altaria returned to normal and floette was returned to me. My three pokemon had a group hug in joy.

After a while, once everyone had recovered, we now needed to sort the water situation out. Goodra called a rain storm on, and it began to rain. I looked at pampour, pampour looked at me and sprung off of my shoulder, onto my head and use hydro pump onto all of the marsh, to make it fertile and wet again. Florges and Floette used Grassy terrain and Aromatherapy to help too. The other floette was healed back to full health. My floette flew over to them and smiled. Florges then advanced towards me and handed me a stone.

“That’s a shiny stone!” Keanon said. “It can make your Floette evolve.” 

“You should do it Y/n.” Bonnie chuckled.

“Not yet.” I put the stone in my bag. “When the time feels right, but right now, I don’t think it should be me who you should be obsessing over.”

I pointed to ash, who was crying over his Goodra, that should stay in the wetlands with its friends. Clemont looked at me, as I had a tear falling down my face. He put his arm around my shoulder, so I did the same. I put my head on his shoulder as he rested his head on mine. 

“I won’t forget you Goodra! We’re forever friends!” Bonnie cried, running in between Clemont and I. We both patted her back as she cried.

And as that day began, we all parted ways with Goodra and Keanon and the rest of the Pokemon from the wetlands. It was a sad sight to see, but I’m glad Goodra got a proper goodbye.
