Pokémon: Adventures with Sirona

"It was Miss Sirona who suggested to me that taught me the joy of fighting. And the depth of fighting"

“Like Sirona”

"Yes of course, I can't do it right away, I don't have experience yet"

"Is such a young lady now one of the Four Heavenly Kings?"

"Yeah because I put in a lot of hard work and I didn't really enjoy fighting until I started working on it for a year or so. During that time, I gradually understood the joy of fighting. strength."

Cattleya has been able to control her emotions because she is used to fighting, including the result, through hard work and battle victory and defeat.By communicating with Pokémon, he realizes that he is a trainer and becomes less emotional.As a result, there were almost no escapees.

"When I became the master of the battle castle, I finally understood the "real joy" of fighting."

"it's very funny?"

"You can't understand now because you need real power to enjoy the game You still can't understand real power, you can't understand"

As Cattleya said, Cam has yet to discover the real joy of fighting.Besides being bad at fighting, he also knows he doesn't enjoy it as much as they do, because he's well aware that his immaturity is due to the higher levels around him.

"Interesting, right?"

"Yeah especially when you and your Pokémon have exactly the same intentions and work as a perfect team."

"That's very good."

The current Kaim Pokémon can sense Kaim's intentions, but they think exactly the same thing about each other, and it's a fit in battle that I've never experienced before.But when you think about it, it's a no-brainer that Kaim started seriously studying combat about two years ago when he was still a college student.In this short period of time, despite his poor talent, he has reached a level where he can be on par with the Gym Leader.Two years to reach this point is enough for him.

"Cam's little black seems to be very motivated."

As if affirming Cattleya's words, Taci and Xiao Hei began to cry while beating Cam's head with their front paws.

I gave up and left it alone because it didn't want to get off at all, but obviously I like this collective.

"Surprisingly belligerent, isn't Cam's little black?"

"Because I like moving my body."

"Huhu, I have to hurry up and become a real person"

"no error"

"I admit you can become stronger, I'm sure"

"Oh, thanks."

Cattleya, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, said this.I felt strongly that I wanted to change this negative thought about myself in some way.

"Since you are my good friend Miss Sirona's partner, you can't let your abilities be half-baked"

"I know"

"also"

Cattleya muttered and continued.

"what's up?"

"Don't stop there, say what you want to say."

"I don't want you to tell me."

"It's a pity that I've been more obedient lately."

"of course."

"what?"

Cattleya sighed as if she had given up and made up her mind.

"I see Miss Sirona as my sister and I also consider Cam as my brother."

Unlike Cattleya bullying himself with a straight face, Cam was surprised that Cattleya said this in a shy manner, and made a sound without thinking.

"A Zhai, I don't get along well with my parents. Of course, that's fine, and I'm grateful to my parents. However, I really don't have much to do with them." Therefore, I can't say that we have a good relationship. "

"real"

"That's why, apart from Cochrane, almost no one is as close to me as my family.

Looking at the night sea, Cattleya remembered the past.He received a genius education since he was a child and had almost no free time.Parents only talk about themselves and their abilities.Come to think of it, I lose control every time I fail, partly because of my loser personality, but probably because I want to be taken care of.

"During this period, I met Miss Sirona. Miss Sirona was very good to me. She treated me without worrying about my identity, which made me happy like I had a sister. So, very

"Because you are a kind-hearted person, Sirona."

"You too"

"Me too?"

"Yeah, you're a curt, unfriendly, clumsy, unobtrusive person, and one of those people who gossip about things and interrupt my sleep."

"You are almost insulting"

He muttered in his heart, wondering if he wanted to praise himself, but Cattleya said something to Cam.

"However, he is very sincere and serious. A lot of what he says is out of concern for me, and he seems like a clumsy brother. So I don't want to say that the people I admire are wasting their time. Everything." has been established even for him. "

Cam didn't answer.

In his view, the reason he doesn't believe in himself and doesn't care about himself is because he believes that "if I don't do this, I can't improve."

In fact, when I became Sirona's apprentice, I realized that most of what I did was unnecessary.So I deny myself even more and value other people's words more.

However, for those who care about Kaim and Pokémon, this behavior is not pleasant.Besides, not everything Cam did was for nothing.Compared with what I have accumulated in the past two years, it may be very small.Maybe less.Probably not necessary.

But it was not in vain.

If he thought it was a waste, it would be tantamount to saying that the four years he spent traveling in the Hoenen region with Kuro and Mashamo were wasted.

I'm lost.

Little gain.

My lack of talent was exposed.

However, Cattleya said this was not a mistake and it was not in vain.

For Pokémon's sake, and most importantly, for his own sake, he asks Kaim not to deny himself.

"Didn't I say it? Don't make Sirona sad"

"I know"

I don't think it's a bad thing to be strict with yourself, but I think it's not good to go too far either.While not physically demanding, it is mentally demanding.

Thinking of this, Kaim also looked at Yehai.

Only the calm sound of the waves could be heard there.

ー ー

After listening to Cattleya's story, and then the story of Four Seasons and Alice, I took a shower and went back to my room.

"Welcome back"

"Could you please stop staying quietly in the room?"

"Is it too late?"

"It's also true."

Cam didn't say anything more, as though he didn't care that much despite his complaints.

I sat down on the office chair provided and turned to face Sirona.

"What are you drinking?"

I got it from Mr. Cochrane. "

"Wouldn't it be nice to come here?"

"yes.

“As expected”

I took the cup Sirona handed me and drank a little of its contents.

"How about it? Listen to everyone's stories."

Cam put the glass on the table and started talking.

"There are some differences in form, but I think everyone has their own belief, or rather pride. It seems like they believe in what they've built so far, and they believe in what their Pokémon believe in themselves."

"That's right, everyone has a core, and they all face Pokémon."

"Sirona, you must have also discovered my distrust of myself."

"Yes. But please don't get me wrong.

"I know.

"I believe you."

"The person I trust most in this world is Sirona, and the person I least trust is myself."

I say it's okay, but this way of being is pretty twisted.

How many people in this world have the mental strength not to believe in themselves, to keep denying themselves, to maintain a decent spirit, and to grow into a decent person?

He didn't deny himself all the time from the beginning.However, it was because of a talented older sister and a close person like Daigo that I ended up in my fate.

Of course, Cam himself isn't bad, and neither are his sisters or Dago.In other words, just bad luck.

"Do you hate saying things like that?"

Cam tilted his glass and said.Sirona doesn't like negative behavior very much.He's not disgusted enough to not want to hear it, but admits he doesn't feel good about it.

Sirona said while stroking Tojikis beside her.

"It's not like that, I think it's a bit too negative, but it's also your virtue to be able to doubt yourself correctly."

At least as a scientist, I need such thoughts.Doubting whether the assumptions and logic one makes is really correct, and using the necessary evidence to prove it is a necessary action for scholars.Cam can accept other people's words, deeds and logic, and then transform them into his own logic. It can be said that he has the thinking circuit of a scholar.

"Do you doubt yourself?"

"Strengths and weaknesses are two sides of the same coin. For example, the strengths are the ability to act cautiously, or the speed of judgment is slow. Whether it can be an advantage or a disadvantage depends on the situation." Time and situation. "

"…I understand"
