Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: First Gym Battle Vs Flint part 1

Alex wakes up after a good night's sleep and goes to the Pokemon center to take back his pokemons. Nurse Joy gives him his pokeballs saying" your pokemons are alright they just needed some rest now they are all good to go. I hope you win your fight against Mr Flint". Alex already informed nurse joy yesterday that he will be having a gym battle today and thus his pokemons have to be in good condition.

Alex: Thanks nurse Joy. I too hope the same.

Nurse Joy: You don't have to worry Mr Flint is a very nice person and if you impress him with your pokemons he will gladly give you the badge.

Alex bids goodbye to nurse Joy and goes to the gym.

At Pewter City Gym a few hours back.

Miss Kathy: How have you been Flint? Any good Challengers came by?

Flint: I'm good and always will be.... As for Good Challengers....mm there were a few, most them were from reputed families who had undergone intense training section but they were all come with plan and don't know what to do when a new variable appears. There was one that impressed me very much his name was John Brook from Miners town nearby.
