Darksol88 "I'm... going to have some trouble then." It was at this point that Aden realized that he was going to have a little trouble. Even if he had taken his Arcanine and Rhydon, he had nothing that didn't rely on the ground. "Especially if both of them are like that." "Well, it is a Flying type gym after all." I said. "That's something you're going to have to deal with among a plethora of things within all the gyms. You remember how Kristy was in Ecruteak, don't you?" I asked.

"Oh man, don't remind me. I just hope I'm ready for her when that time comes." Having more experience than he did then was good, but he knew that would still be a difficult one. "Now I'm beginning to wonder why Freth had the stance she had with that Miltank."

"Now I'm beginning to wonder why Freth had the stance she had with that Miltank." "Well, Freth's irritation isn't unfounded, you know. Whitney, running the normal type gym, established Miltank as the proverbial flagship Pokemon...well, other than Clefairy anyways. The Miltank has really outrageous attack power and the capabilities to heal itself when need be. And...those wanting to go in that fight with a ghost, assuming they have one? Forget it. Miltank has a special trait that allows all its attacks to strike down a ghost." I told him.

"...Wait, what?" Aden was a little scared now. He'd have a chance of fighting something like that later? Maybe it wasn't too late to change his mind... nah. "I don't think I'll ever be ready for that one..."

"I don't think I'll ever be ready for that one..." "Everyone usually aren't ready for Whitney's Miltank." I said to him. "Be fortunate though that Whitney may be your only fight in that gym. She's one of the few that doesn't have apprentices." I said.

"Makes me wonder why..." Aden said, thinking for a second. "Guess she scared 'em away." Luckily, they were reaching a fork in the road, where it branched between Violet and the National Park. "That, or maybe she cried when someone actually managed to defeat her Miltank.

Luckily, they were reaching a fork in the road, where it branched between Violet and the National Park. "That, or maybe she cried when someone actually managed to defeat her Miltank. "You know, now that you mention it..." I crossed my arms, thinking for a second. "I kind of wonder why myself, actually. I mean, she has the option there if she wanted to. Ah well." I shrugged. We reached the junction and I stared in confusion and looked back. "Dang...time flies when we're carrying on a conversation." I said. I then checked my watch then when I looked up, I saw something. "Hey Aden, come here." I said, walking over towards a bush.

"I'm not so sure if I want to know now." Aden stopped for a second to look up himself. Time really did fly. More than he had expected. "Well, we can't be too much further- huh?" He quickly followed, looking around. "Is something up?"

He quickly followed, looking around. "Is something up?" I reached into a bush and started to pull something out. "Here, Aden. Catch and hold on to this." I said, tossing over what seemed to be a fairly large nut. Though a rather unusual one. It was green, as if it wasn't fully mature or something of that extent. Truthfully that was far from the case.

Aden found himself blinking and catching the nut. "Uh... something tells me I'm wrong, but." He examined it a little. "Is this a Lum Berry or something?"

That would be a apricorn, Aden. They are plants native to Jhoto primarily. There is a man in Azelea town that makes specialized Pokeballs out of them believe it or not." I said to him.

"..." Aden took a better look. This was indeed not a berry. "As many times as I've seen them near Ecruteak... okay, I feel stupid now. I didn't know they could be used anywhere, though."

"Well, of course, like I said, they need to be boared out and all that by Kurt. He's the Apricorn Pokeball maker. He makes several variations of balls depending of what kind of Apricorn you give to him. He's quite good at it." I said to him.

"No wonder, then..." Aden decided to pocket it for the meantime. Azalea was in a completely different direction, and further off at that. Being able to have the apricorn crafted would have to wait. "Thanks, though. I wasn't really thinking about those before now."

"I figure that it may be a good thing for you know while you are traveling through the region like this." I said to him. "It helps to know the lay of the land a bit, let alone some of the things that might be able to be used later. Apricorns for one could be near invaluable to you in the right situation. I understand that they recently started making apricorns into other uses. Like...well...something that of protien shakes for Pokemon."
