Chapter 744: The Beginning

Chapter 744: The Beginning The more Florges suffered, the tighter the Vine Whips that bound Yuga became.

"Flo... Flo... Florges..."

Finally, Yuga found it difficult to speak, feeling his chest constricted and struggling to breathe.

Florges lifted her head and saw the fresh bloodstain at the corner of Yuga's mouth. Her pupils contracted violently, and she instinctively released Yuga.

Yuga fell to the ground, gasping for air, then slowly climbed to his feet, step by step, approaching Florges.

"Flo... Florges..."

As Yuga approached, Florges' expression grew more anxious, and the red light in her eyes flickered intensely.

She ferociously swung her two Vine Whips to stop Yuga from getting closer, but at the same time, she was afraid of hurting him, appearing somewhat hesitant and completely different from her previous aura when battling the six pseudo-Elite Level Pokémon.

Seeing Florges in this state, Yuga accelerated and pounced on her, hugging her tightly.

Yuga's embrace made Florges' body stiffen, and her expression suddenly contorted. She raised her Vine Whips, intending to strike Yuga's back.

"Florges, I'm here. Don't be afraid. Let's go back, okay?"

Yuga reached out and gently patted Florges' back while calling her name with a slightly trembling voice.

Florges' Vine Whips paused in mid-air, and her twisted expression seemed frozen.

At this moment, the green leaf pattern left by Gardevoir on Yuga's right hand suddenly radiated light, enveloping both him and Florges.

Yuga felt a strange sensation, as if he were having a dream. In this dream, he had become a Pokémon, a small Flabébé.

When she was very young, she met his Trainer, a simple and ordinary encounter that led to a happy and mundane life together.

Though their days were lazy, she loved this ordinary life.

Later, her Trainer changed. She became stronger and more determined, training tirelessly every day with him, even though it was hard work.

But as long as she was with him, Flabébé was happy. She loved her Trainer more with each passing day.

As time went on, she grew up.

She evolved from Flabébé to Floette and then to Florges. She was delighted to have been with her Trainer throughout his growth.

But then, her Trainer started having more and more companions. She wasn't just her Trainer only Pokémon anymore.

She felt a bit lost. She wished her Trainer would always be her alone.

But she couldn't think like that. She was her Trainer's Starter Pokémon, right? It was natural to embrace other companions and take care of them.

But it was so hard for her. She wanted to be with her Trainer forever, to have him all to herself.

No, she couldn't think like that! Her Trainer belonged to everyone! She reminded herself of this every day.

"I'm my Trainer's Starter Pokémon. I must help everyone integrate into this big family, right?"

Yes, that's right! She was the strongest Pokémon of her Trainer. She could always help him!

Florges was proud of her extraordinary strength. She was her Trainer's Starter Pokémon, and that made her unique.

But why is it that after my trainer went away for some time and came back, Dragonite and Charizard became stronger than her?

Even those little ones she had always looked after had surpassed her.

Her Trainer told her that he and his other Pokémon had gone on a journey and spent two years away.

She listened with envy.

She wanted to accompany her Trainer for two years too. Why didn't he go with her when he left?

Looking at her returning Trainer, she felt both joy and sadness, with a hint of regret.

Seeing the excited faces of his companions who had been away for more than two years, she felt a deep sense of loss, realizing she was no longer one of them.

Ah! She was no longer her Trainer's strongest Pokémon!

Florges suddenly realized this.

But she couldn't show it because she was her Trainer's Starter Pokémon, right? she had to unite everyone!

She needed to be mature and understanding.

Sometimes, she envied Chimecho, who could express all her emotions to her Trainer at any time, whether happy, upset, or even possessive of the Trainer.

But it couldn't. She was her Trainer's Starter Pokémon, after all!

Why the one who gone on a journey with her Trainer is not her?

Why the one who spent those extra two years together in the past is not her?

Regret, so much regret!

She yearned to become stronger! If she became stronger, then maybe those extra two years wouldn't matter so much! Lately, she often had these thoughts unintentionally.

She wanted to become stronger, to be her Trainer's most powerful Pokémon.

As time passed with her Trainer's return, her desire grew stronger.

Though she was sad, she continued to care for her companions, for all the plants and flowers, as if nothing had happened.

Yet her inner longing only intensified, becoming more and more overwhelming.

But one day, as she watched Dragonite and Charizard practice battling, she couldn't contain her sadness any longer.

She wanted to become stronger so badly!

Then, she heard voices in her mind, the voices of all the plants and flowers.

"Queen! We'll help you become stronger!"

"Yes, yes! You have us!"

"Right, for the Queen, we'll do anything."

"Willingly, willingly!"

"Willing! Willing!"

"We really want to make the Queen's wish come true!"

...

The voices of the plants and flowers chattered excitedly, creating a noisy cacophony. But she knew, they would definetly able to help her.

So, she responded to her subjects.

Then, she lost consciousness, feeling an intense heat throughout her body, as if something was about to burst out.

She struggled to restrain herself, to endure, but she couldn't.

Seeing the bright smiles on the faces of the Pokémon in the Flower Sea Sub-Ecopark, She had an overwhelming desire to tear them apart!

They were the ones who took her Trainer away!

But she couldn't. They were companions! she couldn't harm them! She fought to restrain herself. The more she resisted, the stronger this desire became, as if it would erupt from her chest.

Then, she felt an infinite and boundless power surging into her body. she felt like she was about to explode.

And then, she knew nothing more. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Was that Florges' memory just now?

Yuga suddenly felt a headache, and he abruptly regained consciousness, with remnants of Florges' regretful thoughts lingering in his mind.
