Storylocke’d #002: Flight

Flight Story

Amidst  the wealth of X and Y news, let us not forget the fantastic stories still being penned in older generations. Today we bring you yet another story gem from the Nuzlocke Forum: Flight, a Pokémon Black adventure as told by Aviana.

At first glance, Flight may appear to be yet another retelling of the fifth –gen games, beginning with the main character and her best friends Cheren and Bianca receiving their first Pokémon from Professor Juniper. Yet Aviana puts her own spin on things, making this story very much her own. Familiar characters are given distinct and unique personalities—the main character herself being far from the outgoing type. Unlike most written logs, Aviana’s Pokémon do not speak, and yet this skillful author does an excellent job of characterizing her teammates, endearing them to her readers.

In Flight, battling and training Pokémon is a pure spectator sport. Trainers are actors on a stage, vying for the eye of the crowd. Battling enthusiast gamble on their battlers, and scouts and sponsors are always on the look-out for “the next big thing”. In this world of competition, Kessa must learn to overcome her shyness and rise against the odds.

Currently, Flight is an ongoing story boasting seven chapters and, as always, you can find Aviana’s story here. Until next time, adieu!
