"Fennekin, use Ember!"
In a forest, Serena commanded her Fennekin to attack an Oddish.
Countless sparks formed a pillar of fire that shot toward Oddish.
Scorched by the flames, Oddish let out a pained cry. After one final whimper, it collapsed unconscious onto the ground.
The outcome was now clear. Under Serena's Fennekin's attack, Oddish had met its defeat.

"These are for you, as thanks." After saying that, Serena
