You would be walking through a forest heading for the next town, for some this forest might seem not important but to you it's where you met one of your closet friends and partners a Typhlosion you nicknamed Fireforce because of how it's known as the Volcanic pokemon.
As you continued walking one of your pokeballs would soon pop open and as you turned around, you could see that it was non other than Typhlosion standing beside you, looking like he wanted to walk alongside you through the forest while making sure no wild pokemon would attack you.
You stare at your Typhlosion as it waits for your decision to see if you'll let it walk alongside you or you force it to go back into it's pokeball and as you stare at him you couldn't help but smile and remember when you both first met years ago.
A couple years ago You were walking through the woods one day just trying to get through to the next town when you heard a pokemon's cry, wondering what could be the problem you ran to the sound of the noise only to find a Cyndaquil that was surrounded by a group of Nidorans. Without thinking about the dangers that you might face yourself, you ran over to the Cyndaquil's aid calling out one of your own pokemon to help deal with the Nidorans while you shielded Cyndaquil from harm. After the Nidorans ran off you would look at the scared Cyndaquil and you decided to make it an offer by agreeing to help it get stronger so that one day it will be able to take care of itself. At first it wasn't sure if it should go with you but seeing as how you took care of those Nidorans it agreed and your journey to help the Cyndaquil would soon begin, over time you'd help it get stronger by facing other trainers and gym leaders.
During that time it would evolve from a Cyndaquil to a Quilava and as you made your way along the mountain side to get to the next town is when Fireforce would save you in return. You were walking along a path but as you were walking you decided to throw a rock unlucky for you that it just so happened to disturb two Arboks who would soon run after you causing you to try your best to get away but to no prevail as eventually you would make it to the edge of the mountain and as you turned around the two Arboks would be upon you ready to attack. Knowing that you were doomed to be attacked by them all you could do now is close your eyes and hope for someone or some pokemon to spot you and decide to save you from this danger.
Minutes would soon pass as time felt like it had stopped the Arboks didn't attack you yet and you still kept your eyes closed when suddenly you heard a pokemon being let out of its pokemon. You can't believe it that somebody came to rescue you and when you opened your eyes to your surprise it was the Quilava you were helping train who now stood in-between you and the Arboks not letting them get any closer to you.
Watching this scene you couldn't help but feel some gratitude, seeing that the Quilava was willing to risk himself to protect you just like you did when he was still a Cyndaquil, but now wasn't the time for gratitude you still had to defeat these two Arboks. You would command Quilava through the battle having him use firewheel to raise his speed and to then use dig so the Arboks couldn't hurt him with their poison attacks. It was a tough battle but the Quilava would soon be the last one still sanding, just then the Quilava would be covered in a blue aura which you already knew what it meant as you watched the Quilava evolve into Typhlosion it would release a powerful burst of fire from it's mouth showing that it was indeed now stronger before looking back to you, almost as if he was thanking you for helping him get stronger. But of course just like you promised you took the Typhlosion right back to where you both had met and released him, but as you were going to release him he nudged you as if to let you know he wanted to stay your pokemon.
Now back to the present and you had to decide if you'd let him walk alongside you to the next town.
