[indent]Sitting at the table, Bakuto sees the old man Thomas enter the pokemon center again.  Dropping off a spider like pokemon.  Bakuto didn't get a chance to see the pokemon as it was taken by the nurses.  Soon the old man came over and asked Bakuto how the gym battle went.  Bakuto answers after pulling out the gym badge, [color=lightblue]"Well, after a very close battle walked out of the gym with this badge.  Came pretty close, and has given me a lot to think about when it comes to my team and going forward in this League. I need to start building my team up to one I can use in the league. Absol saved that battle but I cant use Absol in the end after all the gym battles.  If I don't strengthen my team then the League tournament will end up being a rude awakening."[/color]

Bakuto sits there, [color=lightblue]"Currently I only have one pokemon that can even compete.   It did well but, in the end it is just one."[/color]  Bakuto looks back up at the counter to check on his pokemon but don't see they are ready yet.  He then says, [color=lightblue]"Waiting on my pokemon to get healed up.  Not sure where I am going to head off too.  I kind of want to head up towards the mountain rocky outcrop I saw I arrived to the Island.  Might be a good place to train up and catch a few pokemon before leaving the Island for the next to get to the next gym."[/color]  Not really worried about rambling on this time.  Bakuto was still riding the joys of victory but also wanting to move on to get back to his journey.  

The plan on going to the rocky region was more formed from his recent battle with Henri the ground type gym leader.  In an area quite similar to the gym Bakuto figured he might be able to run into a ground type to add to his team similar to those he battle against recently. If not find other pokemon that he could add to his team.[/indent]
