ONE WEEK LATER

Kjolmar felt a bit disappointed when he found out that the Lumiose gym leader was currently not available to battle him because he didn't have enough badges. He had trained really hard for a whole week and even made some changes to his pokemon team. When he heard from Charlotte that she wouldn't be able to make it, Kjolmar felt even worse. Not only had his battle skills improved, he had also studied quite a bit while his team was resting to regain their energy. Luckily, Olli had confirmed that he would meet Kjolmar at Lumiose and they would travel to the next gym together. 

At the moment, Kjolmar was having lunch at one of Lumiose' finest restaurants. Litwick was keeping him company, but it pretended to be a real candle because they figured that pokemon weren't allowed outside their pokeballs inside the restaurant. That would prove to be a bit of a problem because ever since Kjolmar transferred the rest of his former team to professor Juniper, Litwick refused to go back in to his pokeball, afraid it would be sent away too. When Kjolmar had payed the bill, he whispered to Litwick: "Okay, let's head outside." 

Outside, he was thrilled to see a familiar face. "Olli! Over here!"
