After arriving in Santalunce City, I immediately went to the gym. There I found the Roller Skates person, who I battled and beat, and they gave me my own Roller Skates! I then proceeded to Route 22, and battled all the trainers there for experience. With that done, I challenged the gym, demolishing Bug types with Shaman's Ember. I then challenged Viola, the Gym Leader. Surskit vs Fennekin- Shaman hits it with Flame Charge and raises his Speed, Surskit uses Water Sport. 2 Scratches later and Surskit went down. Vivillion vs Fennekin. Shaman went on the offensive with Ember, but got smacked with Tackle and Infestation. By the time Water Sport wore off, Shaman was in Blaze range, and finished Vivillion with a powerful Ember! I claimed my prize money, and then Shaman started glowing! Before long I had a Braixen!
Viola's sister, Alexa, gave me and Exp. Share before I headed to Luminose City. This would be helpful later on in the game, and so I didn't turn it off. I battled little kids with Budew and Magikarp and the Gardeners with Corphish (why Corphish?) before I met the Professor's aides, who gave me the TM Return and showed me where to go to meet Professor Sycamore. I found him at his lab, and he challenged me to a battle. It took 3 Psybeams to beat each Kalos starter, and then I was offered one of the defeated. I chose Squirtle, because I had planned to use it anyway.
Team Member Obtained!
AquaCannon the Docile Squirtle ♂
Level 10
Tackle / Withdraw / Tail Whip / Water Gun
I did a bit of raining with AquaCannon, and he soon evolved into a Wartortle! Before long we had reached Camphrier Town. I picked up the TM Thief, and i went to the Castle. Turned out Snorlax had arrived, and so me and Shauna decided to go to Parfum Palace to get the Poke Flute. But first we needed another team member. In the Grass of Route 6 was a Honedge, which we soon caught and added to our team. We named him Excaliber, after the sword.

Excaliber the Naive Honedge ♂
Level 11
Swords Dance / Tackle / Fury Cutter / Metal Sound
I travelled through Parfum Palace and helped find the lost Furfrou. I also picked up the HM Cut. There were fireworks, and a romanic moment between Shauna and myself. Shame, I'm into Serena
From there we went and beat up Snorlax, who left off into the Mountains. Aw well. I met up with Tierno and Trevor, saw the Day Care and Battle Chateau or whatever it is, and me and Serena battled Tierno and Trevor and won. Go us! The Zubat Roost was quickly cleared, and I got the upgrade for the Pokedex. I followed the route round, training on the way, and finally reached the fossil town. I went and met some scientists, who went to Glittering Cave, and on Route 9 I met a Helioptile, who I caught. I named him Helios, because it's a cool name. It's pathetically weak.
Team Member obtained!
Helios the Rash Helioptile ♂
Level 15
Charge / Thundershock / Mud Slap
/ Tail Whip
Anyway, I cleared Team Flare from Glittering Cave, and got a Jaw Fossil. I haven't resurrected it yet. I then went and collected Heart Scales from the Luvdisc, and got 5 before going to Cyllage City. I bought some new clothes before challenging the gym.
After beating the gym trainers I challenged Grant. Honedge vs Amaura. Excaliber set up to +4 with Swords Dance, before taking down Amaura with Rock Smash. Honedge vs Tyrunt. I used Rock Smash again and then finished off the weakened dinosaur with Shadow Sneak. I then saved.
