A Zero With No End! ‘Til The Day We Meet Again!

The day has finally arrived.

We’re on the phone here, with Professor Oak and Ash’s Mom! @mypikachuwillneverevolve was mostly telling them about how he was going home, but it was nice to speak with them again! Even though we’re all going our separate ways, Ms. Ketchum was nice enough to invite us to her house in Pallet Town if we were ever in Kanto!

We graciously accepted her offer.

We watched @serenaofvaniville​ take off, and like that, she was off, chasing her dream.

I know I’ve probably said this a lot… but… I suppose it bears repeating.

Serena… I… rather… we, are really proud of you.

Not just for… following your heart in one sense, but two.

We’ll most certainly stay in touch. We all owe you that much and more!

Zero Sick

Today, we’re starting to get the final bits of our journey wrapped up. And one of those bits is taking Goodra back to the Wetlands. Of course, @mypikachuwillneverevolve and @bonnielovespokemon were the least excited about taking Goodra back, but he belongs in his home with his friends.

…I’m telling myself this, but @this-blog-will-not-explode and I are pretty sad to see him go, too.

And so, we said our final goodbyes to Keanan and headed back towards Lumiose City. The airport’s up and running again, and Ash and I have planes to catch.

It was quite the ordeal, but my Mind-Control-Disrupting-Brain-Wave-Stabilizing Button did the trick! I'm glad that we were able to finish off the last remnants of Team Flare... as our own team... And already it looks like our team is starting to break apart... I... suppose that will make the last of our time together more precious. After Goodra and Greninja leaving... well... I suppose we all have our own paths and responsibilities to pursue... But thanks to technology, we'll always keep in touch! My friends are my strength, and I want to make sure they we maintain communication so that we'll always give each other that same benefit, even across great distances! After all, families grow and travel! And yet we can remain close, thanks to science!

Zero Regrets

Today… was a day that’s going to stay in my heart forever.

Today, we ended up seeing everyone off at the bus depot, starting with my Mom.

I'm really proud of you Serena. These decisions you've made were most certainly difficult to ponder and more so to finally make, but I'm certain you've made the right one! While Bonnie and I will certainly miss you when you travel to Hoenn, we'll be sure to keep in touch! After all, communication is easy thanks to science! We know your hard work and imaginative mind will take you far in that region, and beyond!

Zero Restraint

So my big plan.

Seeing everyone smile after everything got so horrible… it inspired me.

So! I decided that I wanted to spread those smiles with a Pokémon Showcase!

…well, not an official one. Just one to get everyone’s spirits up! I even enlisted the aid of @pkmnperfxrmer! So you know it’s going to be a great time, right?

It was a great performance, Serena! I think you brought back a bit of the life to Lumiose City that was lost during the Flare Attack! I'm really grateful, and I had a great time there too with Ash and my sister watching you and Shauna, and even Jessali, for all her antics... heheh...

Zeroing In

Hey, everyone.

We’re still rebuilding Lumiose City. You can still see the cranes and the tarps everywhere

At least the block where Meyer’s shop (where we’re all staying) looks fine.

As for me? I…

From Zero to One: The Battle After the Restart

Sorry about the lateness of this post everyone…

The… uh battle… or rather… Clembot’s first battle… or rather, this incarnation of Clembot’s first battle… made me quite reflective of everything once it was all said and done.

I kept it together pretty well during the event… I suppose because as a gym leader and someone who needed to support Clembot during this occasion, it was necessary. Focusing on the battle itself helped quite a bit as well…

But, regardless, I wanted to showcase this battle because it was important… not just for me, not just for Clembot, and not even just for Alva, but for all of us.

It… felt like a chance to reclaim the normalcy that we seemed to have lost after the Team Flare attacks on Lumiose.

So it began, Alva’s bid re-challenge the gym, and in particular, Clembot.

And I would be right behind him as he took on this new challenger…

It was really an interesting battle to watch. It really was I like I went back and saw how you battled at the start of our journey together, Clemont! @citroidunit‘s already learned so much in this short time.

Of course, more happened that day, too, but I think Clemont wanted to focus on his battle. I guess this is how you’re going back to Zero, huh, Clemont?

Professor Sycamore had something for us, too!

It's really nice to see the world return to some semblance of normalcy... But I guess without those distractions... we really have to think about where we're all going, don't we... I know you'll figure out, Serena, after all, you already took that big first step in finding your dream after summer camp right? This is only an extension of that, right?

Restarting from Zero

Welcome back, everyone! It’s been a busy few weeks since all that crazy stuff happened! Everyone in Lumiose City has been busy rebuilding and restoring the city to it’s beautiful self!

That includes us! Lumiose Gym is almost back to normal, too! @this-blog-will-not-explode is almost ready to have new challengers!

... While I do think it's a little soon... maybe it'll be a good thing...
