Tiger nodded, and looked at Ponyta. The Pokemon then stopped next
to the Pokemon center, and nodded. "Rapidash rap (this is as far as
we go)" Rapidash said lowly.
Tiger got off, cautious about his bad ankle, he then gave the three
Pokemon a few apples, and nodded a thanks. He and smokey then
followed Mira into the Pokemon center. "Welcome to the Pokemon
cente- what happened to your group" Joy said in shock, as she
looked at the others.
Joy nodded sadly, and sighed. "Many trainers travelling through the
caves get in trouble with them" she said lowly. Tiger looked at
Cyndaquil's pokeball, and limped over to the counter.
"Do you think you could treat my friend? He was critically injured
in the battle" Tiger said deeply concerned. Joy blinked, and took
the pokeball.
"I'll do what I can, if you have anymore pokemon that need to be
treated hand them to Chansey" she said softly, and nodded to her
assistant "she will take good care of them"
Tiger looked over, and went to the waiting room, and sat down.
"Cyndaquil will survive...he's been through worse" he said simply,
and remembered how the pokemon lost his ability to evolve.
Tiger nodded, and tried to think. He wanted to take his mind off of
Cyndaquil's condition. "Hey Tiger" Smokey asked, and sat down
nearby. "You never told me how you, and Cyndaquil met" he said
kindly hoping to bring his brother into telling a cheerful story.
Tiger looked over and nodded. "Alright then" he said kindly. He
then thought for a moment. "It started off in the winter. Fresh
snow covered the ground in Ripple Forest when Pidgey heard a
pokemon attacking something near the beach. The bird flew out of
the cave to check out, and he found Noctowl. The predator pokemon
usually had trouble getting food at night, but that night he found
a pokemon, injured and on the verge of death..." he began softly.
"Pidgey at first tried to fight the Noctowl, but the pokemon was to
strong, so he flew back to the caves to get help. Tally, and I ran
off to the beach to help, and I went where the injured pokemon hid,
which was in a rock pile" he continued. "I went into the pile, and
found Cyndaquil. He was cautious, and afraid at first, and he
attacked me, but soon he passed out, and I took him back to the
cave"
