From the first time they met side by side in the misty flower sea in a cardboard box in Valley Town, the ten years he and she spent together were a tacit understanding when sharing fruits, a guardianship in the white light of evolution, and a thousand words of heartbeat hidden in the touch of superpowers.
Six-year-old Ache made a promise with half a cherry blossom badge, and the injured La Lulas responded to his trust by swiping his tail on the back of his hand. When Kirulian's protective shield lights up for him in the thorn bush, and when Gardevoir's skirt wraps him tightly in the dark forest, this cross-species bond has long gone beyond the word "partner".
In his sketchbook, he painted everything from a childish little blue figure to a long skirt touching the floor; in her superpowers, she ranged from telekinesis training to find keys to spelling out "together". The gym leader's doubts, the threats of poachers, and the teasing of their partners all became footnotes for them to get closer to each other.
When the fog cleared and the sea of flowers bloomed, he finally said what he had hidden for ten years. And the moment she tiptoed to kiss his cheek, all the unspoken thoughts turned into the warmth of the skirt wrapped around her wrist - it turns out that the best journey is never to reach the end, but to always have you by your side.

I remember that La Lulas didn't have a tail? [What][What] did I remember wrong?
Warm and comfortable, that's why the name has been called Chirulian since the first evolution.
It's not that this chapter is a bit messy for no reason, why does it turn into a mess again later on?
