In the corner of the Pokemon Center, I found Mr. Bonding again, who gave me the O-Power PP Restoring Power Lv. 1, which I could use to restore the PP of my lead Pokemon when I use it. That would be a very useful ability no matter where I go, though later on when I would train new Pokemon it could be something to keep me going.
I decided to explore the city, and I took the opportunity to get a nice photo taken for the album. I also went to the nearby boutique to buy myself some new pants and a hat, to keep me warm from the bitter cold of that snow-covered city.
As I explored the city, I received TM08 (Bulk Up) which I could use to raise a Pokemon's attack and defense stats. I talked to the people there, who were all quite friendly, but there was little of note to be found in the city. I decided to go to the Snowbelle Gym to challenge the Gym Leader for my eighth and final Gym Badge in the Kalos region, but I found out that the Gym Leader was somewhere in the nearby Wandering Woods.
With little else to do there, I left Snowbelle City and headed to Route 20, the Winding Woods. The first thing I found there was a mossy rock which I assumed could be used to evolve an Eevee into a Leafeon. I went west and found a Kasib Berry and a Paralyze Heal, but nothing else, so I went back and headed south.
I went as far south as I could, where I found a dead-end, though I was able to get a Meadow Plate before I was forced to turn back. I went west from where I left and found myself in a Double Battle with a pair of Twins. After a short battle I continued along, going south. I got into another battle with a Poke Fan, and after a short battle I went back north.
I went north past the Twins and got into another battle, this time with a Fairy Girl. Through the battle Jack grew to Level 63, and afterwards I went west, where I found a Protein before I got into another battle, this time with a Poke Fan. Through the battle Logan grew to Level 63, and with nothing else to see I went back east, then began my way south.
I continued south past a tree, and then I went east to snag a Mental Herb before I went back and found myself in a new area in the forest. I went south from the new area, and found an X Accuracy, as well as a hidden Balm Mushroom, before I made my way further south.
I had to cut down a tree, then I went west to battle a Hex Girl where Cadence grew to Level 63. After the battle I snagged TM53 (Energy Ball) which was laying on the ground nearby. After that I went back east, and I continued southwest where I found an exit from the forest.
When I left the forest, I found the Gym Leader surrounded by Pokemon in a field of flowers. When I stepped forward the Pokemon were all scared off. He turned to me and told me that the place I found was called the Pokemon Village, and he explained to me that most of the Pokemon there were runaways, escaped from bad people who did awful things to them.
He told me that some of the Pokemon there were too strong and found they didn't really have a place in the outside world, so they went there. When he looked at my Pokemon, he told me that they thought highly of me, and that we've had some good times together. He turned around and called to the Pokemon, telling them I was alright.
They all came running back up to him, and he told me that he sometimes gets worried and goes there to check on everyone. Finally he realized that we hadn't had a proper introduction, and he introduced himself as Wulfric. I told him I wanted to challenge him, and he apologized for the inconvenience, telling me that he'd be waiting for me back at the Snowbelle Gym.
Before he left, Wulfric told me that he thought it would do me some good to spend some time with the Pokemon there. I checked on some of the Pokemon, and from one I received a Chople Berry, and another one gave me a Pretty Wing. I encountered a few powerful Pokemon in the flowers, but I decided to leave them be.
I explored the area for a while, where I found a Full Restore, and a Pixie Plate. I decided while I was there to teach Jack to use Waterfall in place of Hydro Pump, which would probably be necessary to reach Victory Road later on.
With nothing else to do, I left there and flew back to Snowbelle City. Soon enough I would challenge Wulfric for my eighth and final Gym Badge.
