Me and my friends Espy and Vapor have decided to record a secret 
journal to tell our thoughts to each other. Our trainer doesn’t allow us to 
talk to each other. He thinks it wastes time. Our trainer must not find 
out about it. We have been on a journey a week so far and have earned 4 
badges. We are worn out to the bones and our trainer won’t take us to 
the Pokemon Center. I’m surprised we haven’t fainted yet. 
Our trainer has to be the cruelest one in the world. We barely eat, and 
he gobbles all our food up. We are so hungry we go scrounging in 
garbage cans looking for food. If our trainer catches us we are in deep 
trouble even for that. Even for our own survival. Sometimes I think our 
trainer wants us to die. We are planning to run away tonight. Oh, and by 
the way, our trainer’s name is Sky.

We are now going on the water towards Cianwood City. Jasmin has asked 
us to get a potion for her pokemon, Amphy. At least she really cares, 
rather than my trainer. And of course, my trainer decides to ride me 
his only water pokemon. I strain to hold him and his Pokeballs. He has 
also found some friends and I will be carrying her. She thinks it’s 
horrible the way he is treating us. And we totally agree. 
I have passed the journal on to Espeon’s Pokeball with my Kinetic 
Powers. It is her turn to write. After my trainer enters the gym, we will 
start to run. God wishes us Good Will, so we will survive this dangerous 
encounter.

Our trainer has entered the gym, so we have started to pack our bags. 
We must be quick so that our trainer will not catch us. After will are 
all packed we will get Jasmin her medicine, which my trainer totally 
forgot about, and go back to Olivine. 
There, we will take the Aqua and visit and old friend at Bill’s house 
in Cerulean City. There, we will search for a coin case and try to 
place at the Slots to win some kind of wager to support us. So goodbye for 
now.

This is our last entry here, as we told Bill of our trainer. He has 
brought us to justice and turned our trainer in to the Pokemon Police. He 
has now been booked into Jail. Hooray! We all say. 
We are Bill’s Pokemon now. He has promised to treat us nicely and only 
use us for good. He will feed us and clean us everyday, and he will be 
making sure we get lot’s of rest after a battle. So Bill will be hiding 
this journal in a secret place of his. We don’t even know where he will 
hide it. 

“Umby!” I call. “Where are you!” My little Umbreon has been traveling 
through the forest and nighttime, looking for a bit to eat for him and 
his friends. “Ah, here I am!” He shouted back. “I was so worried, what 
took you so long? I’ve set up camp here so you guys can get your rest.” 
“Thank you so very kindly. Here’s the food, I hope you enjoy it! Oh, 
and by the way, where are Espy, Eve, and Vapor?” “They are already in the 
tent sleeping. You may also sleep now.” I take the ham bone my Pokemon 
has given me. It tastes very good. 
I open up my computer and access my files on their little journal. I 
come to an amazing conclusion.” Sky, I’ve heard that name before! Oh, 
jeez, I can’t remember. I guess I’ll have to resort to the professor.” I 
take up my Pokemon Gear watch and call the professor with my little 
phone. He picks up. “Bill, what is the matter?” “You know those pokemon 
that came to visit me? I found some research on their trainer.” “What sort 
of research?” “Something that can keep in jail for a long time. I’m 
going to the nearest city to see if he’s in that jail. I have a matter 
that I wish to speak to him about.” “But what have you found out?” He has 
a connection with the evil forces, sir. He has been in the scheme of 
crime his whole life, and once I tell on him, he’ll be in jail for life!” 
The Next Morning… 

“Come on you guys, were going to the Cerulean City jail to visit your 
old trainer.” I said. But Vapor said back, “Why would we want to do 
that?” They all argued with me not to go. I told them, “ We have to go, I 
have some business to settle with him!” They all shuddered as if 
something bad was about to happen. 
“March Out!” I said. I wanted my pokemon to be ready for what was 
about to happen. We would have a battle, and I would turn his old pokemon 
against him. This was to let him see how strong they can become with 
some love and care. 
By the time we go to the prison, it was quite late. I didn’t care 
because we were raring to battle. I believed that my Pokemon knew what was 
about to happen. They were as anticipated as I was. 
We walked to the visitor’s desk. “Hurry up, visiting hours are almost 
over.” He said. “We’ll be out soon enough.” I said, and my Eon’s 
replied. 
We marched through to his cell, and the guard opened the door. The cell 
was large enough for a full gym room. “Please, leave us alone.” I 
screamed. The guard backed off from my scream. I closed the cell doors and 
looked at the shadowy figure in the corner. “Hello.” I said. “I am Bill, 
the one who has taken your pokemon. It wasn’t an act of stealing; they 
came to visit me. They told me of the horrible things you have done to 
them. So, I took them into my care. They are a great team along with my 
Flareon, Jolteon, and Eevee.” “I am a changed man now.” The man stood 
up and entered into the light. 
“I will challenge you, and if I win, I get my Pokemon back.” The man 
said. “A done deal.” I replied. “Go! Typhlosion!” He cried. I called 
out, “Vaporeon! Go!” I knew I had the type advantage. In a combination of 
attacks such as Water Gun, Mist, and Hydro Pump, his high level 
Typhlosion had been beaten by a low-level water-type. 
He then sent out a Level 60 Feraligatr. I knew what to do. I sent out 
the type advantage of Jolteon. My Jolteon was on a high-level. The last 
time I checked, it was on 60 also. A great choice for this battle. 
Luckily, this was his last pokemon. In another combination of attacks, I 
defeated his pokemon. I was declared the winner, and now had legal 
rights to his pokemon. All my Eon’s cheered and leaded when I one against 
Sky. I was a happy and changed person. 
Then I saw the look on the trainer’s face. He looked steamed and like 
he was about to kill me. “I’m gonna kill you!” He shouted. I ran down 
the hall to the visitor’s desk. No one was there. I ran out the door, 
calling all my Eon’s back into my Poke Ball. 
I ran outside, the screaming trainer running after me. I pulled out my 
Pokegear, about to call the police for him escaping out of jail. 
“Hello” The police answered. “There’s a man that has escaped out of prison, 
he’s chasing after me!” I said out of breath. “Where are you?” They 
replied. “I am by Cerulean, going towards the Rock Tunnel.” The police came 
in a matter of minutes, just as the guy was about to get me. I told the 
police the whole story, and they booked him and sent him to jail for 
life. Now, my Eon’s were about to find an amazing secret I had kept from 
them. “Here’s the journal, the one my pokemon wrote while they were 
with their old trainer. It tells what happened to them on the way, and 
how they came to me.” My Eon’s weren’t mad. In fact, they all wrote a 
new entry together.

Umbreon 
We have been saved from the evil one! 

Vaporeon 
Yay! We are saved and now can live a happy life! 

Espeon 
From all our hardships together, being safe had to be the best. 

And now my Eon’s were safe from their trainer, who could never claim 
them again!
