Year 5, day 292: Michael’s father died yesterday. He was asleep, thankfully. The day before, he’d given Michael an Eevee. It must be uncomfortable, being hugged so close all the time, but I think they can sense his sadness. The funeral was a somber event with a few different speakers. I really didn’t know the … Continue reading Chapter 1.11: 4.8 Years

Year 5, day 109: We had the first test of the Purify Chamber today. I’m glad to say it was a success! A Shadow Flaaffy was put in and we set to work. Only one of the sets was operating, and everyone contributed a Pokémon to it, including me. Terra was a champ, helping the … Continue reading Chapter 1.10: 4.3 Years

Start of year 5: Michael’s dad is looking frightfully unwell. He’s spent a lot of time with some of the leftover Shadow Pokémon that somehow managed to slip through Wes’s cracks (where did Wes and Rui go, anyway?), and one of the Poison-types bit him. He took an antidote and claimed he was fine, but … Continue reading Chapter 1.9: 4 Years

Year 4, day 182: The Zubat are back. It was literally over three years ago, how big a grudge could these guys have?! All my co-workers were getting freaked out, so I took Terra, dashed for my motorcycle and drove all the way to Gateon Port. There, I pulled her out and we faced our … Continue reading Chapter 1.8: 3.5 Years

Year 3, day 292: It’s been a year since I joined the Pokémon HQ Lab. My work, between running errands to and from the port and building various mechanical systems, has been excellent enough that I’ve been put to work on the construction of the Purify Chambers. Even though I have exacting memory and can … Continue reading Chapter 1.7: 2.48 Years

Year 2, day 292: The Pokémon HQ Lab hired me as a technician! I’m not working on the Purify Chambers out of the gate, but I am getting paid for skills I enjoy using, so take what you can get. Also, Terra finally evolved! She makes a very healthy Grotle. Took awhile for her to … Continue reading Chapter 1.6: 1.8 Years

Year 2, day 127: Finally. Wes pulled the mask off Evice and Cipher like a couple months ago, and Professor Krane finally showed up. He was investigating the Relic Stone, to start research on a faster way to purify Shadow Pokémon. I showed an interest in working for him, citing how good I was with … Continue reading Chapter 1.5: 1.35 Years

Day 255: Money’s half gone now. I can see the finishing touches being put on the construction of Realgam Tower. No news about Cipher has shown up on the news sites I’ve learned about, but plenty on that “dastardly Pokémon thief and his partner in crime” showing up as the “last remnants of Team Snagem.” … Continue reading Chapter 1.4: 0.7 Years

Day 146: Terra and I were just having a day about town when we were suddenly attacked out of the blue by a swarm of Zubat. She tried to fight them off, but despite her training, they were implacable. Even a couple Poké Balls I threw at them in the hopes of another team member … Continue reading Chapter 1.3: 0.4 Years

Day 55 in the Pokémon world: I finally have the timeline figured out. The rumors about super-strong but heartless Pokémon were already spreading. I didn’t buy into the hype. Taking care of Terra in such a hostile environment, even when I eventually made it to Agate Village, was enough focus as it was. I have … Continue reading Chapter 1.2: 0.15 Years
