I went north from Cyllage City to reach Route 10, and the path was surrounded by large stones. I snagged an Iapapa Berry from a Berry Tree at the start of the route, then I got into a battle with a Trainer. After the battle, Axel and Brody both grew to Level 25, then I moved some boulders nearby to find TM73 (Thunder Wave).
I got into another battle, this time with a Tourist, and Cadence grew to Level 26. I decided to head back to Cyllage City since I was still so close, and I went ahead and got my team healed at the Pokemon Center before I grabbed some supplies.
I continued on, and I found massive stones lined up along the path going north. I couldn't help but wonder why these stones were here, and what they were for. I met up with a Backpacker who was checking out the stone pillars, and he told me he was informed by someone named Colress that these big stones emit some kind of special energy. I could only wonder what kind of energy, and for what purpose?
I found a Mind Plate nearby, and was surprised to find a Sinnoh item like that here. I knew there must be more of them around, and was determined to find them all! I grabbed an X Accuracy as I went through the tall grass, looking for new Pokemon, and after a long while I finally found a Hawlucha (Fighting/Flying, Male, Lv. 19) that knocked out Axel before I could catch it with a Great Ball. I went back to Cyllage City once more to heal up before I continued going north.
I found myself stopped by a Grunt from Team Flare, one of the few I had fought earlier in those caverns. He wondered if I had any idea what these huge stones were, and he knew I didn't, telling me that I knew nothing about the legend of 3,000 years ago. He didn't care about the legend himself, just interested in getting revenge for his prior defeat.
The Flare Grunt sent out Houndour while I sent out Axel against it. Axel used Nuzzle for good damage, and to paralyze Houndour, and it couldn't move after that. Axel hit it with Thunder Shock next for great damage, and it continued to be stopped by paralysis. Axel hit it once more with Thunder Shock, and it was knocked out, and Gabriel grew to Level 27 and learned Razor Wind in place of Tackle.
I kept Axel in the fight when Golbat was sent out, and Axel started out with Nuzzle to do good damage and cause paralysis, then it countered with Bite for great damage. Axel hit Golbat with Thunder Shock for great damage, and it was stopped by paralysis. Axel hit it once more with Thunder Shock and the battle was over, and Axel grew to Level 26 and learned Slam in place of Quick Attack. Brody grew to Level 26 as well, and learned Odor Sleuth in place of Leer, and both Logan and Jack grew to Level 27.
The Flare Grunt couldn't believe he lost to me again, wondering if I was some kind of prodigy. I had half a mind to punch him in the face for not knowing who I was, after becoming Champion of FIVE DIFFERENT LEAGUES! I heard a ringing, coming from him, and it turned out to be a message from his Holo Caster, which gave him new orders. The Grunt left, and I healed Axel before I continued going north.
I found a Thunder Stone before I got into a battle with a Pyschic who claimed the large stones were enhancing his power. HIS powers may have been enhanced, but his POKEMON weren't any stronger from them, and I soon won the battle.
I soon came across another Flare Grunt, and after a short battle I beat her easily. I continued on, and got into a Wild Pokemon battle where Cadence grew to Level 27, and I decided to work on doing some more training against Wild Pokemon. Axel grew to Level 27, and after a battle with a wild Golett that took far, FAR too long, I went back to Cyllage City once more to heal before I continued along the way.
I got into another battle with a Flare Grunt, and it ended quickly. I got into another battle just a few paces away with a Tourist, and through it Brody grew to Level 27, and Jack and Logan both grew to Level 28. I continued north to the gateway just a few feet away, and I reached Geosenge Town.
I went past the Pokemon Center to see another Flare Grunt going off somewhere in the town. I made a quick trip to the Pokemon Center to heal my team, and while there I received TM66 (Payback) before I grabbed an extra Potion, and I left to explore the town and find that Flare Grunt. As I went forward, I found a girl in red who told me to meet her in the hotel to talk.
I grabbed some Soft Sand near the Pokemon Center, then I received an Everstone from a Scientist in a house near the Center. I went north and found the Flame Grunt, who told me they were going to use the stones on Route 10 and some fantastic treasure to make everyone on their team happy. He told me that in this world the ones who have power are the ones who win.
Serena came by quickly after that, asking if I had seen someone from Team Flare, and I told her I had, but that he left. She said the only place that path led to was a dead-end, and she thought that Team Flare seemed very weird. Serena left, and I went down the path to find an ancient stone structure, and seemingly nowhere to go.
I went back to the town, and went around the outside to find another Photo Spot. I took a photo with three massive central stones behind me. I went to the center of town after I tipped Phil, the photo guy, and I saw just how huge they were. A sign in front of htem said that these ancient stones are said to emit a mysterious power, and I wondered what kind of power could come from them?
I explored the town further, and found a man who told me a legend of someone wandering for 3,000 years looking for a Pokemon, which I knew must be impossible. Sure, Pokemon have been found to live for thousands of years, but humans are much more frail.
I found a Timer Ball behind Hotel Marine Snow, and I went inside, where I found the girl in red again. She told me some of the rocks on Route 10 are more than 30 feet tall, and she told me that there were hundreds of millions of them spanning more than a mile. She said it was possible that people put up those stones with help from lots of Pokemon, but she wondered for what purpose.
She continued telling me that there are lots of theories about them, that some people think they mark the burial site of warriors from ancient times, and others saying they were built as family memorials or set up for a ritual to celebrate life. She didn't know about all that herself, and told me she thought they might be some kind of calendar, explaining that you see it all the time in astronomy studies. She said that ancient cultures used stones to track the movement of the sun.
She said that those stones were full of mystery, and that many believe they contain some kind of mysterious power. She hoped that it was a benign power that is watching over people and Pokemon, and she told me that there are also some mysterious stones in Shalour City as well. I had a feeling that I'd find out about these stones sooner rather than later.
I got to the second floor and found Mr. Bonding again, and he gave me the O-Power Speed Power Lv. 1 which I could use to increase the speed stat. He left after that, and I found myself out of things to do, so I decided to call it a day.
