Pokémon: Adventures with Sirona

N himself looked at Cam with a serious face.

"Compared to the last time I saw you, there is more hesitation in your eyes now. I don't know what happened these days, but maybe I can help you. I want to help my friend."

Compared with when we met a few days ago, Cam's expression is a bit sad.Arguing with Sirona while observing the tower, he didn't really feel that sadness, but N didn't miss the moment when he suddenly felt worried.

"There's probably nothing I can do since I've known you, but I want you to tell me if you don't mind."

Seeing N's serious expression, Kaim sighed helplessly and sat down beside N.

"Am I that easy to understand?"

"I don't know. If I hadn't met you that day, I probably wouldn't have noticed."

"Is that right?"

"So what happened?"

"N beat the champion."

With such a powerful trainer, you may find that Cam's bad habits can be broken.

"just in case"

"N, don't you worry about whether your choice is wrong when fighting?"

"?"

"I always wonder if I've made the wrong choice. In a battle where decisions can change in an instant, that's fatal.

I take this lightly, but it's a pretty serious problem in itself.This bad habit is Cam's old habit, so it's not easy to break.At least this is certainly not something that can be resolved overnight.

But Keim himself thinks this is wrong.Because he felt that it was not good to be stuck in the past forever, and it was impossible for him to stand beside Sirona in such a state.

Sirona didn't think so, but she didn't like that Cam was in such a weak state.Most importantly, I don't want to be in a situation where I can't overcome this wall, even though everyone around me is saying, "If it's Cam, I can do it."

"Why are you so worried when fighting?"

"Anyway, I don't have confidence."

"why?"

"I can't believe I've lost everything so far. That's all."

Some words are still etched in my mind to this day.

“If you’re not talented, no matter how hard you try, you don’t know what you’re doing, do you? Do you want to do something else?”

This sentence was said to me when I was a child.

The person who said this probably didn't mean anything bad.Judging from his subsequent attitude, it can be inferred that this sentence was purely because "I don't understand how people who can't do it feel" rather than out of malice.

But the statement is true.As long as there is no talent, there is a limit to growth.It's not wrong to say I know.

So bitter loser Keim continues to silently object to this statement.As a result, Keim, who was mediocre in all aspects, piled up countless failures and no longer believed in himself.

"I see, is that so?"

"Then what was N thinking about when he was fighting?"

“Honestly, I don’t think my approach would be very attractive.

"You can talk to Pokémon after all"

"Yes. Do you trust me?"

"what"

N was a little surprised by Cam, who nodded without hesitation.

"I was surprised. It was so easy to believe."

"I've felt that way in my interactions so far, so it's different."

"Those who know I can talk to Pokémon call me a monster."

"There are all kinds of people in the world, just like Pokémon has all kinds of things. So I would be surprised if someone could talk to me, but I wouldn't doubt it. If someone could talk to me I won't be surprised if I speak. Are all people like this, can't you do it?"

Judging from what I just said, N is definitely confident, and he is probably the kind of person who doesn't think about these things at all during battle.And now that he can interact with Pokémon, he might be classified as a so-called genius who has never hit a brick wall due to a lack of confidence.

Chapter 46 Zekrom

"Why is Cam so insecure?"

"It's an option for a guy who's been making mistakes and losing games. It makes me wonder if he's making mistakes again."

"Then why do you still fight?"

"I hate losing. I'm a twisted person, so if I'm told I can't do it, I try to finish it. Also, I don't have money to coach when Pokémon is motivated to fight."

"real…"

"And, thanks to Sirona, I realized that even a normal person like me can do this.

Hearing Kaim's words, N took a breath and began to speak.

"I don't know much about Kym yet, but I've learned a little about him in the past few hours."

"what's up?"

"You are kind and care about your surroundings."

"?"

"You are friendly to Pokémon and humans alike. You value your surroundings."

"It's ok"

"Yes. I think it's wonderful. But why do you care about the people and Pokémon around you?"

Hearing N's words, Kaim turned his attention to Sirona who was dealing with Pokémon.

“It’s not because of my strength that I’m here now. The people I’ve met through Sirona’s connections are also irreplaceable to me. So at least I want to give back what I can. That’s all.”

Cam would not exist without Sirona getting to know him in college.The same is true for Sirona, but it is Sirona who creates the momentum.

Because of this opportunity, Kaim has grown a lot both as a trainer and as a scholar.It wasn't just Sirona's power that led to this process.So at least Cam didn't forget to take care of his surroundings.

"Cam, you trust Sirona and the people around you."

"No wonder"

"So, did the people around you and your Pokémon make you give up once?"

"didn't say"

I was able to do my best because I didn't say anything.Say it even once and the trainer may have given up somewhere along the way. “Everybody everybody believed in me and said, ‘Kym can do this. ""

"What? Isn't that easy?"

"teeth?"

Cam tilted his head because he couldn't understand N's words.

N said to Cam with a smile.

"Cam trusts your friends.

"what"

"Then why don't you try to believe the 'words' your friends give you first?"

"!"

"If you can trust your comrades in arms, can you trust their word?"

Cam opened his eyes.

Until now, everyone around Kaim told him that he could do it.Keim himself, however, did not take his words seriously because he thought "it wasn't there yet".

However, after fighting Alice a few days ago, Sirona said: "What Kaim needs now is not technology, nor physical strength, but mind." I simply think that Kaim lacks mental, physical and physical strength, but the other way around Saying that, I can say that his technique and physical strength are enough.

In other words, Cattleya, see you in four seasons, and Alice said to Cam: "If it's Cam, you can do it." This sentence is not out of wishful thinking about the future, but out of full awareness of the remaining Things depend on your logical observations because you have skill and physical strength.I mean.

"…I understand"

"From what you said, I don't think Cam, who has been blaming himself for so long, won't trust himself easily."

"Haha, is it that easy?"

"From my point of view, I think you're in a very happy relationship with both Pokémon and humans. You're in a happy place. I think ego is better than running away or rotting. After all, your friends believe in you, even if If you don't trust yourself, you can trust what your friends say, right?

N's words entered Cam's mind, as if the fog had lifted.

Cam secretly laughed in his heart, wondering if the matter was so simple.However, this is not a mockery of my own stupidity, but an encouragement to my new self.

"N"

"Yes?"

"thanks.

I can't say goodbye to the past yet.However, I caught an important clue and crossed the wall in front of me.I didn’t expect to get the chance to get N, but when I’m wary, the big moment might not come.

"Have you become stronger?"

"I screwed up"

"Fufu, for your own good"

"I thought he was just a weirdo, but I'm glad I consulted him."

"Too bad. Is that what you think of me?"

"You, remember the first contact? You're just a weirdo."

"Haha! Maybe it is!"

"It's not like that, it's like that."

Cam poked N's arm and smiled faintly.

N genuinely thinks that spending time with new friends is "fun".

"Yes. I have a request for Cam."

"?What's up?"
