I don't remember writing this, but I did, so in the blog it goes.

Atta glanced down in disgust at the pokeball in her hand and sighed. inside the pokeball was a Glameow and she didn't want it. She remembered that right before she had left her home in Twin Leaf her mother had been so proud she was following in the footsteps of every female trianer in their fmaily that she hadn't taken time to consider Atta wouldn't want to keep with the other tradition of starting with a Glameow. Before she knew what had happened, she had been thrown out of the house with a pokeball containing a Glameow. Atta sighed, the pokeball weighing heavily in her hand. She had a ways to go before she could reach the Sinnoh contest hall, and considering what Glameow evolved into, she wasn't really pleased to be starting her journey anymore.
It was custom for girls of her family to start their journeys at fifteen, learning home skills for the five years the boys were away. She hated how old fashioned her family was, but it gave her plenty of time to daydream about contest moves she could use. That was in the past, though and she had to worry about the present and the present was Glameow. "Maybe if I let it out for a bit, I'll grow to like it," she pondered to herself. She was, after all, near Sandgem and it wouldn't hurt to be with the Glameow for some time. It wasn't that she hated Glameow, it was just that she couldn't stand them or thier evolution, Purugly. She had been around the two since she was born and ofotn feared that she would drown in the amount of Glameow the family owned.
"Here goes, Glameow, come on out," Atta cautioned. Before her appeared a blue cat pokemon with a tale that looked like a spring. When Atta was younger, she had tried to see if she pulled the tail out, if it would spring back. She never found out the answer as the cat had scratched her before she could pull the tail out all the way.
"Purrow?" Glameow looked up at her with a snobbish smirk and began to clean it's paw. That was another thing she hated about Glameow; they always thought that they were better then other pokemon.
"Why does our family like these things so much," she muttered under her breath low enough so the Glameow wouldn't hear her. It let out another purr before it began to walk elogently beside her. Atta sighed. By the time the two had reached Sandgem Town, she had not grown any fonder of the pokemon. In fact, she got annoyed by it's swaying spring tail more and it's mere presence. "Return," Atta sighed, recalling the blue cat. "I dislike Glameow," she sighed, slumping over slightly.
Atta walked over to the local pokemon center and sat down on one of the benches to check through her supplies. All the pokemon contests in Sinnoh were held in one location, so there was no need to register for them until she arrived at the town where they were all held. She watched as many eager trainer signed up for the league challenge, one of which she recognized, though had forgotten his name. She remembered seeing him when she was little looking out the window next door, but she had never met him in person before. "Should I say hi?" she asked herself as she watched the back of his blonde head nod to something Nrse Joy had said.
Before she could decide a course of action, the boy had left. She sighed and thought it odd that he would wait to leave home this late since he was around her age, but she shrugged and figured that it was none of her buisness. Sighing, she stood up, having been rested and refreshed, and left for Jubilife.
Atta liked the fresh air of the open road. She liked just about everything of not being home with her overly dramatic mother. She loved her mother, but she was the kind of woman who liked all eyes to be on her and her Purugly had picked up this habit as well. Atta sighed as she switched from thinking of her mother's Purugly to the Glameow in the pokeball she had with her. "I'd do anything to not have started with it, but I guess if I must have it, then there's nothing I can do," she sighed as she walked, grass snaging at her shoes.
Jubilife wasn't much farther ahead and she wanted to get there before sundown. One of the things that she loved about living in Twin Leaf was that the next town was only a day's walk away.
