Well, it was a bit disappointing, but at least some of his team were able to get stronger though some of them fair better than others. Basil used one of his Super Potions on Titus to keep him going and gave the fish a gentle pat on its flopping head. [color=8493ca]"You'll get there buddy."[/color]

What he saw though surprised him; there was a brief flash of white emanating from Crocus' bulb, but it just faded away. His Pokedex buzzed at his side and when he pulled it out he saw that Crocus could evolve... But he wasn't? [color=8493ca]"What's going on bud?"[/color] Basil knelt down and gave the little Bulbasaur some head scratches.

[color=39b54a]"Bulba..."[/color] Crocus hung his head down in shame. He felt like he was disappointing his trainer for not evolving though a part of it just wasn't ready. It was a lot to change one's very shape, their being, who they were. 

Basil gave him a gentle smile. [color=8493ca]"It's fine, you can evolve whenever you feel ready. There's no rush."[/color] He returned Crocus to his ball and turned his attention to his companions. [color=8493ca]"Well, this place wasn't ideal for training. We'll just have to move forward until we do. So, time to go to the Frozen Cave."[/color]
