A Day with Kahili

Scottie found a golf ball at the base of a tree.

After picking it up, [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="he" F="she" ] noticed that there was a name written on it...

KAHILI

You went out of your way to return this to me? Thank you.

There aren't any places I can practice a full game of golf on Pasio.

But I go to the forest so that I can at least practice my swing.

Toucannon often goes out with a golf ball in his mouth, so I guess we lost this one when we were in the forest last time.

I practice my swing six hours every day. It has become a fundamental routine for me.

Yes, of course! I train with my Pokémon as much as I practice golf.

I suppose I am pretty busy, but training my Pokémon is always a priority.

I have to juggle both since I promised myself that I would.

I make sure to go to sleep at the same time every day.

No matter what, I always take care of my body so I can keep up with my training regimen.

I appreciate your concern.

But I make sure that I am in peak physical condition, so no need to worry.

Besides, I have Toucannon by my side.

Toucannon's beak is nice and warm, so I sleep very comfortably when I snuggle up to him.

It's so cozy next to his beak, and touching it helps me fall asleep.

See? If you get close like this...

Hmmm... He doesn't seem to be in a mood to humor me.

Is this because of what happened yesterday?

Well, yesterday a Trainer asked us to battle with them after our daily golf practice.

Well, yesterday a Trainer asked us to battle with them after our daily golf practice.

There were many onlookers who wanted to challenge me, one after another.

In the end, we had 20 Pokémon battles back-to-back.

We were exhausted by the end of the day, and I just collapsed next to Toucannon.

I meant to snuggle close to his beak, but I ended up sticking my head into it and falling asleep there.

Toucannon stayed in that awkward position all night and waited for me to wake up.

I'm sure the poor thing was trying hard not to wake me.

By morning, his beak was trembling from the strain.

Do you think my head was heavy?

Ow, ow! Toucannon! Stop! Stop pecking! Your beak is so hot! What does this rhythm mean... Are you angry?

My Toucannon is usually shy, but he becomes very stern when he's angry.

I guess this is just him showing how much he cares. I'm sorry, Toucannon. I'll make sure to not let myself doze off like that again.

I suppose it's because it's something I enjoy.

That's a good question... That thought hasn't really crossed my mind.

I was fortunate enough to find two things that I love.

And those are Toucannon and golf.

It would be wrong for me to say that either of those is a burden to me.

You don't need to worry about that with me!

You don't need to worry about that with me!

If I go so far that I might really hurt myself, Toucannon will be there to peck some sense back into me.

He is the perfect partner when it comes to golf, Pokémon battles, and even everyday life.

If I overwork myself and collapse, it would cause a lot of trouble for Toucannon.

And that is something I want to avoid more than anything.
