Prologue: Have Merc..y Part.1.
As usual in the Netherlands, we're late to worldwide parties. Despite not needing translated works of any kinds, we're often overlooked. Our league and gyms? They needed some extra managing. So guess who decided to start her journey just then? Yeah. Me.
My friends call me Salt, so why wouldn't you. This Salt headed to the lab and picked her starter. Got to choose out of Elekid,Shellder or Trapinch. Obviously, the choice was made at the speed of light.
All hail Trapinch.
Got my starter, got my basic stuff stashed away in my messenger bag. Instead of training around my hometown of Eindhoven, I call a friend over in Maryland: Merc. He's aware of the situuation, and sure enough, comes with a great idea. I might as well go train a bit over there with him while the higher-ups get their shit sorted. Entirely funded by the nearby people in charge, I fly over to Maryland.
Merc? A pal of mine, not much taller than me (cause what can I say, 5'8" vs 5'11" isn't that bad) and we're possibly both scrawny. Can't tell since we're both well dressed.Ready to fight crime.
We start walking a nearby path, and I get the opportunity to train Zeke some more. He's quiet, but listens well. A bit of one-on-one attention does him well. He's easily embarrassed by any more. Sentrets seem to be everywhere here, and I manage to catch one.
She's battle-ready, showing her amazing fluffy "guns" and prancing back to me for some praise every time. Loving those kind of attitudes. Cute,loyal and spunky is the way to go.
Merc suggests teaching the two TM Dig which I happily agree to. Not too long after, Sentry learns Fury Swipes in favor of Scratch and evolves. She nearly gave me a heart-attack, but she's more than fine and oh-so-tall.
Additionally, Merc and I caught a duo of male Fletchling. They're pals and not just them, but our entire team so far ends up working well together! Right away, Merc teaches all pokemon able to, Aerial Ace. STAB attack; GET!
After a quick visit to the pokecenter (Yes, because of me because,yes, I'm only starting out), I pick up my shiny Swampert! I hadn't expected to win the local contest, but I did! She's a powerhouse and she soaked me, but it's all in good fun, I hope. We get along most of the time.
The look on Merc's face was priceless, so to say.
I've always been bad at updating journals, so this whole thing with Merc has already passed and is based on memory. It'll be about accurate, at least w
Be seeing you.
