Miracle takes a step back, "Whoa, can I at least go and get some potions?"

Hau laughs and tosses a Pokéball in the air, "Miracle! You have to be ready for anything! Plus it's just a little battle, nothing serious."

"Yeah, uhh, I think I'm gonna have to pass. Y'know it's late, the sun is about to set."

Hau frowns.
Sad Hau makes me sad.

Tiko rolls his eyes, "She can't be serious."
He flies up to her shoulder and imitates a Torchic.

"Tiko, stop! I have to think," Miracle shoo's him away.

What could she possibly be thinking about?
How to battle?
It isn't hard!

She sighs, "Fine, I guess we can battle."

I now see why Hau was so happy.
His Pichu evolved.
I can already feel Tula's rage.

Tula jumps on my head, "What!?" She yells in anger, "This can't be! How did he evolve before me!?"

Because he loves Hau more than you love Miracle.
It's simple!

She glares at Pikachu who gives her a confused look.

"Its okay, Tula," Tiko says gently, "I'm sure you'll evolve soon, maybe you're just not ready to evolve yet."

Tula brushes him away, "Easy for you to say. You've already evolved and soon Isa will too! I will not be overshadowed by you two!"

She's...what's the word.
She's got some issues.
Tiko is a Trumbeak, one of the most annoying Pokémon you can find in Alola.
There is no way she'll be overshadowed by him.

"Hey, you three!" Miracle interrupts, "The faster we get this battle over with the quicker we can leave.

Pikachu stands confidently in front of Hau.

Tula on the other hand looks quite uncertain.

Yet, she was so eager to battle.

"Tula," Miracle asks, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Tula nods a newfound confidence.

"Use Nasty Plot."

"Pikachu use Electro Ball!"

Its not very effective, if Pikachu keeps on using Electro Ball, Tula might be able to beat him.

"Tula use Sweet Kiss!"

Pikachu becomes confused and hurts himself.
He just punched himself in the face.
Logic.

"Nice Tula! Now use Thundershock!
It does...enough.
Just kidding!
It didn't do much of anything in reality.

Pikachu breaks out of confusion (the salt rises) and uses Quick Attack, which does a lot more than Electro Ball.

"Yeah, Pikachu! That's the spirit!" Hau leaps into the air. "Use quick attack again!"

Tula's down.
Looks like we're going to lose another battle.

I wonder, did Miracle really expect to win with a Pichu?

Tula climbs up on Miracle's shoulder, she looks so sad.
But I'd be sad too if I just lost that badly.
Am I being too harsh?

"It's alright Tula." Miracle reassures her, "You weakened him down a bit, that means it'll be easier for Isa to take him out."

I smile at Tula in an attempt to cheer her up but all she does is sigh.
I can't say I didn't try.

Miracle looks at me and tilts her head over in Pikachu's direction.
She could've just said Isa come beat up this Pikachu.
Why do we have to play charades?

"Use Water Gun!"

"Use Electro Ball!"

The two attacks meet in the middle. The Electro Ball explodes, pelting me with electricity.

"Isa!" Miracle's voice sounds far away. My vision blurs and I struggle to stay standing.

"Isa, Isa!" I look behind me, Tula is jumping up and down flapping her arms frantically.
"Isa, I know you can do it! You're stronger than me! You have to win, show Litten and Pikachu we won't be taken lightly!"

Tiko sighs, "Motivational speeches won't win us the battle." He spreads his wings and curls his beak, "You just have to win!"

Wow Tiko.
Thank's for telling me something in already know.
Tula gets my approval, though.
She's a good child.

I turn back to Pikachu and hold my head high.

I am suddenly consumed by a white, bright light.
It swirls around me and lifts me in the air.
It tickles my skin and I feel my body changing.

I'm back on the ground, everyone is staring at me in awe. I take a look at myself.

I now have a stupid little white dress on.
My flippers have gotten a bit longer and skinnier, and now have white tips on them. 
My tail also has the same white tips.

Hey!
One step closer to impressing my family!

"Whoa, Miracle!" Hau exclaims,
"Isa evolved mid-battle. I didn't even know that could happen!"

Lillie smiles, "She's so cute!"

Do not call me cute.

Rotom flies over to me, "Brionne, the Pop Star Pokémon. It cares deeply for its companions. When its Trainer is feeling down, it preforms a cheery dance to try and help." He chuckles, "Looks like you've got yourself a Brionne!"

A very grouchy and angry Brionne.
Wait.
I actually evolved.
It's a new record.
Nobody has kept me long enough to see me evolve.

Tula cheers, and wraps her arms around me, "Yay! Isa, I'm so happy for you!"

As much as I hate people touching me, I just can't bring myself to yell at Tula, "Yeah, can you do me a favor and...stop squeezing me so hard."

She releases me and smiles nervously, "My bad."

Miracle smiles, "Now we at least have a chance to win this battle. Ready, Hau?"

Hau nods.

"Alright, Isa. Let's see how strong you've gotten, use Water gun!"

It hits Pikachu significantly harder than before.
That's what I like to see!

"Electro Ball!"

"Use Aqua jet to dodge it!"

The ball of electricity whizzes past me.

Any slower and it would have hit me.

"Now finish him off with Water Gun!"

Pikachu's finally defeated.
Eh.
That was easy.
Just forget about the part where I almost passed out.
That's ancient history.

Hau smiles, "Wasn't that fun?"
Miacle chuckles, "Uhh, no not really. I thought I was gonna have a heart attack."

"Yeah? Well, we're not done yet."

I can't help but laugh at that.
Hau's a troll.

Hau throws a Pokéball revealing a sleeping Litten, "Litten, wake up! You can't sleep-fight!"

Litten opens one eye, looks around, then stretches.

He yawns but when his eyes land on me he nearly chokes.
"Isa!? Is that you?"

I nod and he takes a long look at me.
"So you and Tiko evolved? I need to step it up. What if Rowlet's evolved to too?"

Tiko pushes in between us, "Yeah, that's all nice and good, but you and I have a battle to fight."

Litten tries his hardest to beat Tiko, but in the end he fell short.

Poor Litten.
I was rooting for him
I mean, how could you lose against someone who wears a fedora?

Tiko shakes his tail feathers in Litten's face, "That's what happens when you call me reckless!"

Pikachu runs up to Tiko and uses Electro Ball on him.

"That was a fine battle if I do say so myself," a voice says.

I think it was Ilima, I'm not sure.

Rowlet flies over to us, "Ohhh, Isa. You're so pretty!"
He smirks at Litten, "Why haven't you evolved, Litten?" He asks jokingly.

Litten rolls his eyes, "Why haven't you evolved, huh? You've been following the professor around everywhere."

Rowlet laughs, "Oh, Litten, it was just a joke! You still take everything so seriously."

Litten glares at Rowlet, "It's better than being so oblivious that you can't even battle properly."

Rowlet falls to the ground, laughing, "He still doesn't get it!"

Litten's face turns red.
I can't tell if it's from anger or embarrassment.
Either way, it's still pretty funny.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Because Miracle hasn't slept for a while, she decides to head home and do her grand trial tomorrow.

The only problem is she slept all day.
I wish I could do that.
I had to listen to Tiko the Trumbeak talk all day long.

All he did was complain!
He's so whiny its unbelievable.
Not even Tula, a baby Pokémon, whines this much.

Sadie kicked us out of the house because Tiko was making a mess..with his voice.

So, now, he can make a mess of her porch.
"It's been forever!" He groans, "Did she die in her sleep!?"

Tula slaps him, "Don't say things like that! You'll jinx it!"

Tiko looks over the horizon at the setting sun, "Well, looks like we'll be traveling at night, again."

Banjo walks over to us and sits down, "It should be sunrise in Hoenn." He speaks in a very slow and soft voice, it's strange. "We always had the best sunrises."

After saying that cryptic shit, he just leaves. 
That's it; that's all he had to say.
What!?

"He's weird," Tula remarks.
Banjo heard her.
But he didn't do anything, just slightly turned his head.
Good job, Tula.
I'm proud of you.

I hear some far away foot steps and look to see Hau and Pikachu running towards us.

He skids to a stop in front of the house, nearly falling on his face.

Sadie walks out of the house, "Hau, you should really be more careful."

Hau smiles, "I know but I was wondering where Miracle was. The sun is setting and I haven't seen her all day!"

"She's still sleeping, but she should wake up soon. Right, Duke?"
The Furfrou barks and goes inside.

I would've just gotten some cold water but dog slobber is good enough, I suppose. 
 
She turns back to Hau, "You can come inside and wait for her."

While Hau is admiring the house, Pikachu runs all around, making a huge mess or a bigger mess than there already was.

Banjo decides he doesn't want to deal with another mess and trips Pikachu with his tail.

Tula helps the Pikachu up, "What're you so happy about?"

He shakes himself off "So, while we were waiting in Iki Town for Miracle to show up, Hau decided to do some training. And Litten evolved!"

I push Tula out of the way, "Really?!"

"Yeah!" Pikachu replies, "He's a Torracat now."
  
"I wanna see him," Maybe he looks like a bigger edgelord than he already is.

Tiko flies over to us and gives me a worried look, "Calm down, Isa. Jeez."

I roll my eyes, "Tiko. Shut up."

Tula climbs up on his head, "I don't think I've ever seen Isa so happy."

"Yeah, me neither. I'm worried."

I find Litten, or Torracat, rummaging around in the trashcan in the kitchen.

"Hey, Torracat," Pikachu says happily his smile quickly fades when he sees him digging in the trash, "Uhh why are searching through the trash?"

"I'm hungry," He lifts his head out of the trash can and pulls out an old...something.

His new form is different to say the least. His back legs look disproportional to his bigger, more muscular front legs.
On the bright side he has a cute little fire bell collar.

"So how does it feel?" I ask eagerly.
He shrugs, "Alright, I guess, I do like the collar, but don't touch it. I almost burned Hau with it this morning."

He slowly eats the mush in the white wrapper, "So you have a different name now?"

"Yeah, that's what happens."

"Can I give you a nickname?"

He stops chewing and slowly lifts his head up, "No."

He says it like I'll listen

"Issac..."

"No."

"Oh, Issa-

He pushes me away, his paw taking up half of my face, "No, my name is Torracat. If my trainer doesn't give me a nickname, than I have no nickname."

"Okay. Issac."

His fur bristles and he stifles an irritated growl.

Man, I love him.
He's great; he always does or says something to make me laugh.
Which makes him mad 'cause he wants to be serious!
Isn't that funny?
Messing with him is ten times better, though.

Remember how Duke went to wake up Miracle?
It took her an hour just to get out of bed.
If I'm not dead by the end of this journey, that will be a miracle.
You're welcome.

I shudder.
I think it'd be best if I never said that again.

After about another hour of waiting for Miracle to  get ready, we're finally headed to Iki Town.

"I'm so excited," Tula squeals, little sparks surrounding her. "I heard that the Kahuna's are the strongest trainers on an island."

"They were chosen by the Tapu's, of course they're going to be strong."
 
Her eyes sparkle, "Really? Ohh this battle is going to be great!"

Yeah, if you don't faint in it.
Nothing against Tula but, she's a Pichu, what is she gonna do?
 
Iki Town is filled with people, so many that you have to push past them to get through.

What's happening around here?
Is Miracle some prodigy that just attracts people to barren and boring places?

Tiko flew off somewhere, probably to mess with Torracat.

Tula and I walk up to the stage, "Hala's not here," Tula says, looking around, "Where could he be?"

She jumps off the stage and onto my head, "Maybe he's getting ready for the battle." She suggests.

Hmm.
That reminds me of something Rowlet told me, "Rowlet says that Grand Trials rarely happen on Melemele. Most start their trials on the other islands because they're a lot bigger than Melemele. This must the first battle Hala has had in a while."

A small Rockruff runs over to us, "Peaches!" Chase yells, chasing after her, "What're you doing? Are you trying to get me in trouble?"Chase grabs the small pup and glaces at me and Tula.

"Isabelle? Is that you?"
I nod and he smiles, "You evolved?! That's so cool! If only I could have been there to see it."
He looks up at the sky, completely lost in whatever he's thinking about.

Peaches runs off, snapping him out of his daydream, "C'mon, Peaches, please! I don't want to get grounded again!"

Tula and I make small talk until Hala arrives.

Everyone goes silent and watches as Hala strides forward.

Tiko and Miracle walk onto the stage.

"I heard about your victory at Verdant Cavern" Hala begins, "You have done well in beating your first trial. But you still have one more test."

He stomps his foot down, shaking the stage, "The Grand Trial. Miracle! Show me how you and your team has grown! The Grand Trial of Kahuna Hala has begun!"

First is a Mankey up against Tiko.

Hala scratches his chin before shouting out the first command, "Focus Energy!"

"Tiko, use Peck!"

That Mankey didn't even stand a chance.
I yawn.
All Hala has are fighting types.
Tiko can just sweep through them.

"One down, two to go." Miracle says confidently.

Hala laughs, "Don't get too confident."

Next is Makuhita.

"Makuhita, use Fake Out!"

Tiko flinches but its okay.
We've still got..uhh..not much, actually.

"Tiko use Peck!"

Tiko charges towards Makuhita but Hala looks on, unfazed.

"Makuhita use Sand Attack!"

It hurls sand in Tiko's face stopping him in his tracks, however his accuracy won't be lowered by Sand Attack thanks to Keen eye.
And the power of the fedora.

Tiko struggles to get the sand out of his eyes, leaving him open for attack. "Use Arm Thrust!" Makuhita sends Tiko flying through the air.
He lands on the ground behind Miracle a cloud of dust settling around him.

Rip.

"Tiko! Are you ok?"
Tiko shakes the dust and sand off himself and flies back to the stage, standing tall.

Miracle smiles, "There we go, Tiko!" He screeches in response.
Not squawks, screeches, like a banshee.

"That's the spirit! Now use Peck!"
Tiko charges once again.

"Sand Attack!"

"Dodge it!"

Tiko's ready this time.
He soars up into the starry night sky, looking like a star himself, and comes crashing down on Makuhita before landing gracefully at Miracle's side

Makuhita is down.
Only one more left.

A Crabrawler.
"What's that?" Miracle asks.
Rotom is there to help her out, "It's a Crabrawler. You find them around berries and such."
Miracle nods, "Alright, Tiko, all we have to do is beat this Crabrawler."
Tiko nods, still hungry for another battle.

His bloodlust is strong.
I guess that's a good thing in this case.

"That's one determined Trumbeak you've got there," Hala says.

"Thanks. We've worked hard."

No, we haven't.
Don't lie, Miracle.

He smiles, "Determined but reckless."
The Z-ring on Hala's wrist begins to glow and he becomes surrounded with an orange light.(insert fightinium Z dance)
The orange light travels over to Crabrawler and a symbol appears in front of it.
"All-Out Pummeling!"

Crabrawler lunges forward and throws numerous punches, all of them almost unseen. Tiko is left in a deep pit in the ground, unable to battle.

It was fun while it lasted.

Miracle stares at the pit in shock, "Wha...? What just...ahh!"

Tiko picks his head up.
At least he's not dead.

Miracle sighs as he stumbles back over to us, finally collapsing next to Tula, who gently pats his head.

Miracle turns to me, "It's up to you, Isa."
I waddle forward.
Y'know, if there's a will, there's a way!
I just, don't really want to put in the effort, but I'll try for Miracle.

"Disarming Voice."

"Power Up Punch!"

I get hit right in the face with its big meaty claws.
Felt nice.

"Disarming voice, again!"

It's still standing!?
How?
I start to panic.
Why isn't it dead yet!?
I just wanna sleep.

"Isa, it's ok!" Miracle says calmly, "It's almost down, one good hit will do it in."

I nod and wait for her command,
"Aqua Jet!"

She was right, I was panicking for no reason.
Huh.

Hala smiles heartily, "I expected nothing less."

Tapus Koko cries out, it always has something to say, "Ho! Tapu Koko agrees as well!"

He hands her an orange Z- crystal. "This is your reward for beating me.
(Insert dance once again.) "You have beaten all of Melemele island's trials!"

There was only one, though

"Yeah! Now what?" Miracle asks.

Suddenly, Tauros comes running up to us, lively as ever.
We all gather around it.

Apparently, this is a great opportunity to let Miracle try and ride it.
It worked.

I would've loved to see it fail, though.
That would teach Miracle not to mess with random Pokémon she pats on the head.

I hear some clapping near the entrance, "Congratulations, Miracle." Ilima says, walking up to us. "I am amazed you won without even using your Z-power."

Ilima is that fancy smug.
I can respect that.

He smiles, "I hope we get to battle again sometime." He waves us goodbye and leaves.

Nobody has anything interesting to say anymore!

"You should tell your Mom that you'll be leaving soon." Kukui suggests.

"Leaving?"
Miracle, please.
I'm losing faith in you.

"For the next island! Meet me down at the Marina."

He turns to Lillie, "Alright, Lillie, time to get the boat ready. Are you gonna help me clean it?"

She nods, but stays to talk to Miracle.

"Um, can I ask you a favor?"

"Yeah, what is it."

"I never told you this but, Nebby saved my life when I was in trouble and now I want to save it! But I'm no Trainer and I couldn't ask some random stranger, so I was wondering if you could help."

"Of course I'll help you."

"Really?"

Miracle nods.

Lillie bows before following after Kukui, "Well, then, I guess it's off to the next island. See you soon, Miracle."
