>>53635964The stretch from Petalburg to Fortree was ROUGH. The terrible weather made traversal hellish for the team, and the amount of tough trainers on the way there was insane. She figured that only the most hardcore trainers would be lining up to battle on a route constantly swamped with heavy rain, but wasn't this a bit much??
And- just Erin's luck, of course- she even got stuck in the middle of a fight between some Team Aqua guys and a bunch of scientists. After one of the grunts smacked a scientist and threatened further harm the young trainer had to step in and fend them off with her new Sharpedo... that shut them up real quick.
To top that all off, just as she was about to reach Fortree she met a Ruin Maniac who... lived up to the name. The Maniac hardly said a word- he just tossed a Baltoy at her feet. Just as Erin was about to pick it up she saw Miccosukee swat it out of her hand-
-and him explode as consequence, blown to bits right in front of her.
Thundara's sweep of Winona soon after hardly meant a thing. Erin instead focused on her silent trek to Mt. Pyre so that she could finally put Flambe and Miccosukee to rest.
After a few weeks of grieving, the girl got back on her feet. She had another gym to take on, after all.
