Chapter Text

 

ChosenOne: its the 27th and we left the center just before the sun was up to get a head start to bluefinland and misty stopped us


SteelRocks: what for?


ChosenOne: she saw 4 corsolas swimming in the water nearby us


GroundQueen: that makes sense


SquintyEyes: and there heading to pudgy pidgey isle, with misty looking for a boat now and also said she wished she had a pair of wings to fly there, all for the corsola


LivingLegend: i wonder why tha island is called that?


DragonMaster: its cause the pidgeys on that island are fat to sum it up to the point they can't fly due to them having no natural preditors there cause of the whirlpools around that isle, leading to them constantly eating


OldTimer: that makes sense, since with no preditors, they can eat as much as they want


ChosenOne: i think ill get storm sent over here so the pidegeys can see a pidgeot thats in shape, and maybe it will inspire some of them to fly again


ChosenOne: and now a guy around brocks age named wilbur, the caretaker of that isle, arrived and he overheard us and said he could get us across by showing us a rope bridge to the isle


DragonMaster: just hang on tightly to the rope bridge, since strong gusts of wind shake the bridge


SteelRocks: why hasn't a stronger bridge been put in its place dragon?


DragonMaster: this is the strongest rope bridge, but i will write it down to have that bridge looked at and replaced with a stronger bridge that isn't a rope one

 



ChosenOne: despite the strong wind, we got to the isle and those pidgeys are quite chunky and indeed cant fly, which storm letted herself out and was not happy with what she saw as wilbur led us to his house, the only house here where another pidgey was flying that was born here, with this one at least in shape like a normal looking pidgey that loves to fly really high with storm flying with him


MovieStar: at least one of them can fly


ChosenOne: he said that pidgey is named orville and wilbur explained how pidgey's were once used to delivering messages, but not anymore thanks to technology, which we pointed out we already have seen a pidgey messaging system on the mainland


SteelRocks: of course you 3 have


ChosenOne: i even called oak to let him know were in the whirl islands for the whirl cup misty signed up for and then said we're on that pidgey isle, with oak saying how scientists have an ongoing debate on either these are a pidgey variation or an evolution


OldTimer: seriously?


OldTimer: for being a scientist, oak is not all that bright when it comes things common sense can figure out


DragonMaster: i agree, these are just overwieght pidgeys with no preditors to force them to fly away, nothing more than that, and i will walk over and tell that to him in person


ChosenOne: even my pokedex said these were ordinary pidgeys, which i told oak and even said the pidgeys are just over weight due to lack of predators on the island


GroundQueen: and his reaction?


ChosenOne: looking like he was questioning his inteligence over something so simply explained


OldTimer: good


DragonMaster: im still walking over there


SquintyEyes: also, theres' this picture here that orville keeps looking at with pidegeys flying towards the sun, with wilbur telling us how his grandpa painted it based on a fairy tale


MovieStar: that does sound like a familiar fairy tale


SquintyEyes: then wilbur told us how a while back, orville became intrested in that painting and wanted to learn to fly, with wilbur helping everyday to get stronger, till he finally learned to fly because of the painting


LivingLegend: it shows his determination


WaterGirl: wilbur also told us orville even wants to fly all the way up to the outer atmosphere, but hasn't measured how far it can go yet


SteelRocks: that........is quite something


DragonMaster: as what legend just said, it shows his determination


ChosenOne: and now the trio is here, no doubt heard the conversation and are offereing to 'help' orville reach his goal, while disguised as meterologists, with wilbur agreeing


OldTimer: either those 3 actually want to help or its a ploy to steeal your pokemon again


SquintyEyes: with the trio, it can go either way, with us going with, while the lift is using a balloon made for this type of travel, and this is taking place tomorrow, but meowth at least is eager to help


GroundQueen: well then, good luck if this works or not

 



ChosenOne: its morning of the 28th and we're boarding the balloon now due to the wind being just right to begin the ascent with james in control and the balloon is already getting to over 3000 meters, with meowth talking to orville with a headset he got him to stay in contact with us


DragonMaster: you have oxygen masks?


ChosenOne: we all do and we'll recall our pokemon when it gets to the point the lack of oxygen is effecting them


MovieStar: why don't you 3 tell us what all happens afterwords


ChosenOne: we'll do that

 



ChosenOne: back on the ground and back on our way to bluefinland


SteelRocks: not what all happeded with orville ash?


OldTimer: did he make his goal?


LivingLegend: details please ash


ChosenOne: to start, orville did it, he reached the outer atmosphere


DragonMaster: thats great


MovieStar: he reached his goal


GroundQueen: it showed his determination


SquintyEyes: as for what all happpend, to put it simply, as orville was making the climb upwards, there was a flock of spearow that he flew past that angered them and chased him, with ash sending out storm just in case


DragonMaster: of course with those birds


WaterGirl: then when we reached 10,000 meters, us humans got our oxygen masks on, with the fearow from that flock chasing us, until storm took it on, resulting in it falling on the balloon and causing part of the special skin that was covering it to break, revealing it to be the meowth balloon and the trio removing their disguises


ChosenOne: only they weren't after our pokemon and instead while jessie and james wanted to settle a bet to see if orville could achieve his goal or not, while meowth wanted to help and support his goal since no one helped and supported him when he learned to speak human


SteelRocks: at least that is something good, them not after your pokemon this time


ChosenOne: it was, and it got to the point we had to recall our pokemon cause even they needed oxygen and recalling them was quicker, till the balloon reached its limit and the rockets the trio used stopped working, with orville contiuning to fly higher, and while wilbur was worried, orville said on the headpeice that meowth translated how he wanted to contiune, and despite frost starting to gather on him, he said he didn't feel a thing


OldTimer: shows his commitment to his goal, despite the risk to his health


SquintyEyes: orville did make his goal to the outer atmosphere and admired the abysis of space for a few moments while speaking to meowth, orville dived back towards the world, only to plummet at a dangerous speed, with meowth telling him to change course to the balloon, which he did and crashed through the balloon and into the basket, where he was given oxygen and warmed up


GroundQueen: was orville alright?


ChosenOne: at first he wasn't responding, until i used aura for heal pulse and that helped him, only the hole in the balloon got larger, causeing us to cling to the basket as the balloon fell at a rapid pace


DragonMaster: did any of you get hurt?


WaterGirl: we didn't, with not just storm going under the basket, the pidgey below helped by flapping their wings and mangaged to get some height with their jumps and managed to tackle the balloon basket to break our fall, and while we were all fine, the trio, who were clinging to one of the rockets during the fall for deal life that still has some fuel left and started back up and blasted them off


ChosenOne: thanks to orville, who became a hero to these pidgeys, they all are now determined to fly, with wilbur and orville eager to help them, while we said our goodbyes and left towards bluefinland, with it sunset when we left
