Pokemon Black - Mistralton City and the Celestial Tower

I started heading into the city, and was stopped by a man on the path. He somehow knew me, and asked to see my Pokedex. I showed him, and he was impressed that I had thus far seen 70 Pokemon. He remembered himself, and introduced himself as Cedric Juniper, Professor Juniper's father.

Professor Juniper had told Cedric a lot about me, and he was happy to meet me. Cedric upgraded my Pokedex, and I could see different forms of Pokemon on the Pokedex as well as a function to search more easily through my records. A woman came up behind him, asking who I was, and Cedric told the woman, Skyla, that I was a friend of his daughter's.

Skyla appeared to be a pilot, Cedric told her to let him know if anything else unusual. Skyla told him that her cargo plane was meant for cargo, not people, and told him that he acted like other regions were right around the corner.

Cedric left, and Skyla told me that before I could challenge her she needed to attend to something. Skyla told me that while she was landing her cargo plane, she saw something on top of the Celestial Tower, a sick Pokemon, and she wanted to help it out. Skyla told me I could come along with her to the tower on Route 7, but first I wanted to explore the city.

In one house, I found a family with grandfather who was a Move Deleter, and a girl who was a Move Reminder. I would have to come back with Heart Scales to use her services, but at least the grandfather would work free of charge, perhaps because he's forgetful. In another house was a family just going about their business, though I learned the town had many greenhouses to ship vegetables around the world.

I also found the Airport for the Mistralton Cargo Service, and from someone inside I received a Sharp Beak, which I gave to Madelyn. I hopped onto my bike and checked out the landing strip, and I found TM58 (Sky Drop) as well as all the greenhouses I was told about earlier. Around them I found a Max Ether, an Elixir, and a Repel, before I started my way through Route 7.

I talked to someone on the road and received TM57 (Charge Beam) before I looked around. There was a path on a winding hill to the left, and tall grass to the north, with an elevated walkway to get around safely. I went through the tall grass, and soon found myself in a battle. I won against the Youngster, and beat a wild Pokemon for Mason to grow to Level 33. I got into another battle, and Madelyn grew to Level 33 as well.

I went back onto the side road and fought another Trainer, then I went back to heal my team before I continued onward through Route 7. I found a house at the fork in the path, and inside the man was looking to trade an Emolga for a Boldore, but I was hoping to catch an Emolga on my own. I went onto the elevated walkway to get through some tall grass, and I got into another battle.

The Ace Trainer I fought against pulled me into a Rotation Battle, and I sent Zach, Mason, and Arthur out against his team. After a prolonged battle, I emerged victorious, and Zach grew to Level 33. I moved further north and got into more battles, and through them Cole, Nora, and Arthur all grew to Level 33, while Mason grew to Level 34.

Soon enough I came upon the Celestial Tower, and I found it to be a tall graveyard, like the old Lavender Tower had been. I was told by someone on the bottom floor that there was a bell on top of the tower, said to calm lost spirits. I went up to the second floor, where I quickly caught a Litwick (Ghost/Fire, Male, Lv. 28) before I got into a few battles.

Through the battles Madelyn, Cole, and Nora all grew to Level 34, and I found a Hyper Potion and TM61 (Will-O-Wisp) before I went up to the third floor. I got into a few more battles, where Zach and Arthur both grew to Level 34, Zach learned Slash in place of Fury Swipes, and I found a Spell Tag before I found a Nurse by the stairs who healed my Pokemon after I beat her in a battle.

I reached the third floor, and got into another couple battles with Ace Trainers. Through the battles Mason and Madelyn both grew to Level 35, and I found a Revive and TM65 (Shadow Claw), and I also caught an Elgyen (Psychic, Female, Lv. 29). Finally I found my way at the last staircase heading to the top of the Celestial Tower.

I met up with Skyla at the top of the tower, who told me that she did indeed see a hurt Pokemon, but told me it was fine thanks to her. Skyla talked about how great her eyesight was, to have seen the Pokemon from such a distance. Skyla then asked me to ring the bell, telling me that it not only soothed the restless spirits but that the character of the person ringing the bell was also reflected in it's sound.

I rang the large bell, listening to the sound reverberating through the area, and Skyla told me I was a kind and strong person, claiming that she could hear that from the sound. Skyla introduced herself properly to me after that, telling me that she was the Leader of the Mistralton Gym, and she told me that she specialized in Flying-Type Pokemon. Skyla looked forward to seeing me at the Gym, and I had Madelyn fly me back to Mistralton City.

My team gained a lot of experience from the battles, and I was sure they were ready to take on the challenge of the Mistralton Gym.

Current Team:

Cole (Pignite, Fire/Fighting, Lv. 34)
Zach (Liepard, Dark, Lv. 34)
Nora (Palpitoad, Water/Ground, Lv. 34)
Madelyn (Unfezant, Normal/Flying, Lv. 35)
Mason (Zebstrika, Electirc, Lv. 35)
Arthur (Simisage, Grass, Lv. 34)
