The Life and Times of Jacque
Chapter 1: About Jacque
It was another day in the life of Jacque, a 15-year old boy in the region of Hoenn. While walking down the road from Rustboro City to the Pretty Petal Flower Shop, he passed a couple of Pokémon Trainers who wanted to battle him.
"Come battle us, your Pokémon look strong enough", one of the Trainers said.
"No thank you, I'm on my way to check on the Berries I planted", Jacque replied and continued walking.
When he arrived, he was surprised to see one of his Wepear Berry plants lying on the ground. He ran towards it, and slowly picked it up from the ground.
"Sirpin, take this plant and put it carefully in the bag, please", he said and handed the damaged plant to his Pinsir. After slowly putting the plant in the bag, Sirpin took out another Wepear Berry for Jacque to plant. Jacque took the plant and pointed at the empty spot of soft, loamy soil.
"Shrewster! Dig a small hole, please", he said. The Sandshrew started digging, and it did not take long for him to finish. Jacque slowly planted the new Weaper Berry, after which Shrewster covered the hole.
"Good job, fellas'", he said and smiled at Sirpin and Shrewster.
"Time to set up our camp!".
The three friends took out a small Red Tent, and set it up. Sirpin was sent out for wood while Shrewster started digging around the tent. It was their typical style of taking care of the Berries they planted. Set up camp for one night, see if the plant was healthy, then return after a week. When Sirpin returned, he and Shrewster set up a small fire to keep them warm. Then they used the rest of the wood to make a wall where Shrewster had been digging. That way, they could stay warm and would be protected against thiefs and wild Pokémon. They crawled into their sleeping bags, except Shrewster who curled himself into a ball, and slowly fell asleep.
The next day, Sirpin and Shrewster started packing up their camp, while Jacque went to check on the new Berry plant.
"Ah, perfect as always. I just hope it doesn't get damaged this time", he said while admiring the plant.
"Pin...Sir!", Sirpin shouted and pointed at the flock of Wingulls flying towards the plant.
"Oh no!", Jacque shouted.
"Sirpin, Brick Break! Shrewster, Slash!", he shouted while pointing at the Wingulls. Sirpin and Shrewster started fighting off one Wingull after the other, untill all of them had flown away. Jacque then noticed the injured Wingull laying on the ground. It had been hurt by the other while trying to escape. Jacque took out his Poké Ball and captured the Wingull in it.
"We need to get you to a Pokémon Center, fast!", he said.
"Sirpin, need a lift!", he shouted, and Sirpin ran up and put Jacque on his shoulders. They ran towards the Rustboro Pokémon Center, the closest one, closely followed by Shrewster who was rolling after them.
Once they arrived at the Pokémon Center, Jacque threw the Poké Ball to Nurse Joy, who put it on a small tray and gave it to a Chansey. The Chansey then disappeared with the Poké Ball, and did not come out for two hours. Jacque jumped up from his seat and ran towards the Chansey.
"Will it be okay?!", he asked with a nervous tone of voice.
"Chanseeeey!", the Chansey said and smiled. Jacque couldn't have been more relieved.
