The battle between Xin and the wild Larvesta went on for a while
before Aster threw a Pokeball at the Larvesta. The Pokeball wiggled
three times and Aster caught the Larvesta, the sixth member of her
team. She named to Larvesta Naomi and put her Pokeball in her bag.
Lizzie sighed. "Alright then, if you don't want to listen to me.
I've got a battle to finish." She ran back outside, calling to
Sugar and Phantom as she did. "Let's finish this!" She ran,
skidding to a stop behind her Glaceon, who was looking eager to
continue, eyes narrowed in a challenge. It was already in a
defensive position.
The ice from before had melted. "Use Ice beam!" The Glaceon ran
forward, creating the ice floor all over the battlefield, making it
slippery. "Use shadow ball!" A ghostly black blob was sent flying
at the ponyta.
"Iron tail!" The psybeam was blocked by the metal tail once again.
Phantom then raced forward and slammed the tail down on its
opponent, causing a energy explosion.
"Ice shard!" Sharp knives of ice stabbed into the ponyta, causing a
painful stinging sesation and knocking the horse pokemon back. "Ice
beam again!" The beam was aimed square at the ponyta's chest.
Aster smiled at her newly caught Pokemon's Pokeball before walking
over to Izzy with a smile. She was happy and pretty pleased with
herself about catching Larvesta (Naomi).
Izzy clapped once Aster showed her the newly-caught team member and
led the way back to Izzy's cabin to talk about training methods.
Izzy and Aster arrived at Izzy's cabin and Izzy healed Aster's team
for her.
Aster was starting to become slightly more confident around Izzy
and hoped that someday she would be like that to start with instead
of being really shy and nervous like she was now.
Lizzie glanced at the clock. "We better finish this soon..." She
muttered and went back into battle mode, standing straight and
yelling, "Go on! Use iron tail!" The glaceon leaped and sliced down
with its metal weapon once more.
Aster sent out her team of fire-types and smiled. She had two
Pokemon on her team that weren't from Galar: Eiju the Entei and
Naomi the Larvesta. She was proud of herself and also glad that she
had met Izzy. Coming here wasn't such a bad idea after all!
She thought happily.
Veradin was walking along the beach and saw two girls with Latias
and Latios. She watched them for a bit to make sure they weren't
Team Mirage members. Kiro was beside her and not too happy about
having to be really careful.
