Chapter 3

"Here we are Grizz said Jerome as he stood outside a huge building on the outskirts of Emberton. It had large sliding doors above which was a big red letter P. He stepped in to see a large hall filled with benches and potted plants. On the left side there were some tables and snack machines, and stairs leading to some guest bedrooms. On the right side was a small shop advertising all manner of pokemon-related items. At the back of the hall was a wide counter with some computers and a door behind it. A young pink-haired lady in a nurses uniform stood there smiling at Jerome. "Good evening sir, she said bowing as he came near "How may I help?". "Could you please heal my Teddiursa for me, Jerome said handing over Grizz's ball "it was poisoned winning our first ever battle together". "Of course I will young sir, said the nurse putting the ball on a tray, "it'll soon be right as rain". She then went into the room behind and Jerome decided to get some shopping. He went over to pick up a basket and went along the shelves and chose 6 potions, 2 full heals, and 1 escape rope. "Greetings friend" said the shopkeeper as Jerome approached the counter "want anything else". "No I'm good thank you" said Jerome handing over the cash, "in fact it's time for bed". So he put his stuff in his rucksack and went upstairs for the night."Aah that's better Jerome said stretching after a good night's sleep "Time to get Grizz". Then he dressed and went to the main counter. "Good morning sir" said the nurse giving him the ball "here is your friend". "Cheers miss" he said and took the ball. He then exited the center and breathed deeply. "Now then let's explore". He turned right and strode down several quiet streets until finally he reached the town centre. He was shocked by how crowded it was, many people & their pokemon walking in every direction as they joined long queues for countless shops. Fairhampton was never like this thought Jerome as he saw most people were barging into each other without apologising. There were also: a fancily-dressed young girl stepping into a large car while a machamp was loading a mass of bags & parcels into the boot; a man playing a flute as two herdier merrily danced on their hind legs; and people laughing at a bald man chasing a zigzagoon that stole his wig. Jerome made his way to a large park
