ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Ecruteak

Crow: "I'm not really sure. I just got a message from Jacob. I still have to figure out how I'm going to get there given I've got something they're probably not going to let me take on a plane and I don't know where to put it otherwise."

Airship Hall

-Brie, indeed, does, scattering the three like bowling pins-

ACK!

-Joseph gains his composure-

Where did you come from, Brie?

Another green world.

-Emma groans and tries to shove her backpack into her face. Since it's filled with junk, she just winds up hurting herself-

Emma: OW!

Hotel Richissime

(Alex enters. He can't do his appearify thing, since noisy automatic doors and stealthy entrances do not go together.)

Tastes better on the way back down.

Ecruteak City

-Herbert tilts his head at Crow, frowning slightly.-

Herbert: Hrm... I guess you could come with me and Crewe, since I think we're still planning on travelling together. We're taking a boat, since both of us also have objects in our possession that might be rather difficult to explain to customs officials.

-He taps Tsumugari with one of his fingers.-

Trans rights are human rights. JK Rowling preaches hate. If you sit at a table with five bigots and say nothing, there are now six bigots.

Lumiose City

Sakura sends back another text

Hotel Richissime

iOS approaches Jacob

"Mr.Jacob! Mr.Jacob!" he said, trying to draw his attention

Somewhere in Kalos

Allen raises an eyebrow "Which means...?"

Ecruteak City

-Straw is heading down to Goldenrod to catch his flight-

Lumiose City

-Elise is walking around, having just visited the Juice Shop-

Elise:I wonder how lost everyone's going to get...?

Hotel Richissime, Lumiose City

Chip: Yes. Well, kinda.

A Rotom appears near the watch, looking over at Jacob. Chip also looks towards the questioner.

Watt: <In case you couldn't tell, I was in the watch.>

Chip: I'm sure he could tell. He looks smart. This is Watt. And I'm Chip.

Crow: "Oh, okay, I'll come with you two, then."

Airship, Previously

Lua: <Flame shapes? Let me see! Though I wouldn't mind a tea party...>

Airship, Aquacorde

Lua: -is jolted awake by the crash-landing- <The system has not been properly shut down! Recovering journal...> @_@

Tangent: Huh? -awakens-

Rufus: <That wasn't me! When I crash a ship, I do it more epically!>

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

Airship, last night

-Skoll breathes out a puff of flame, which organizes itself into a Magikarp before fading-

Airship, now

Brie: -picking herself up- I was just hiding in one of the closets! Then I fell out!

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Airship Hall

Why did you have to hide?

Another green world.

Lumiose City - Hotel Richissime

Jacob: "Ooooh! Hello Watt, Chip. I'm-"

-Interrupted by iOS- "Err... Jacob. Heya iOS! Where's Hikari?"

-Looks at Chip- "This is iOS. The Porygon of a friend of mine. We're here doing research!"

Ecruteak

-Crewe is wandering around, wondering why there are so few J-Team members in town when she notices Herbert and Crow-

Hey! Herbert! Is it boat time yet?

Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!

Earlier

-Sitting around-

Hmm...

-Suddenly reaches into the darkness and yanks out the Chespin from before-

Chespin: -Struggling- <Hey, let me go! How'd you even find me, my hiding spot was perfect!>

The Sense helps a lot with that. How'd you get here anyway?

Chespin: <I've never been to Kalos and this was the last airship ou-Huh, you understand me?>

There was a time when that reaction was novel, but by now I'm kinda used to it.

Chespin: <So... What now?>

Well, it would appear that we both want the same thing, how about we hang together?

Chespin: <That seems like a good idea, I guess.>

I suppose we ought to make this official then.

-Gets out a Poke Ball and taps it on the Chespin's head-

Wobble

Click!

Congratulations! Tagg caught a Chespin!

Would you like to give your Chespin a nickname? Y/N

Aaron joined Tagg's party!

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Cianwood City

Zeal: Kalos?

Lanie: Yeah. I want to take a gym challenge again...

Zeal: I understand. In Unova, things didn't exactly go as planned, did they? At least not in the end. So, I'm guessing you want me to come with you?

Lanie: Of course!

Zeal: Why not? Sounds fun! ...Wait... I just had an idea.

Lanie: Huh?

Zeal: We'll work together for the Kalos badges. You can do the battling and everything, since that's more your thing than mine, but... Would you mind using some of my mons in your challenges, too?

Lanie: Ooh! That's actually a pretty cool idea.

Zeal: So you'll do it, then?

Lanie: Sure! Why not?

Zeal: Heh. Thanks, Mel.

Lanie: No need for thanks, Chary. I haven't done anything yet.

Zeal: ...Eh, that's fair.

Lanie: So you'll come with me, then?

Zeal: ...Indeed. KALOS, AWAAAAAAY! ...Er... so we should probably head to Goldenrod or something first, right?

Lanie: Yeah, probably.

"Even if everything has been predestined, will you not oppose it?"

Ecruteak City

-Eskay has woken up, and is around here with Skye and Diane-

Ecruteak City

-Herbert nods at Sakura's text message, then looks back at Crow.-

Herbert: Alright. We'll get going as soon as Crewe-

-He is interrupted by Crewe coming up behind him.-

Herbert: Oh, hey Crewe! Yeah, we were just talking about leaving. Though we might want to head somewhere more coastal first, since neither here nor our destination can be reached by boat. We... may not have thought this one through particularly well.

Somewhere in Kalos

Titan: You may be wondering why I have not seen fit to issue you with a call sign or enforce uniform restrictions upon you. That is because such measures would usually be considered detrimental to an undercover operative.

-He starts looking over the blueprints on his desk again.-

Titan: As of tomorrow, your mission will be to infiltrate the remnants of Team Flare, assess their strength and whether or not they could pose a potential threat to our operations, and see what kind of technology and information you can recover. Apparently one of Flare's scientists gained some measure of infamy after using a young girl to assist with his crimes without her consent. Perhaps the two of you will be able to bond over mutual interests.

Airship, hall

Brie: I dunno, it's more fun like that.

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Airship Hall

Right. Well, anyway, here are my cousins, Jim and Bethany. They're monotypers, like you.

Jim: I'm a dual-typer, actually.

Another green world.

Ecruteak

Oh yeah! Straw said everyone would be heading to Lumiose, but that's inland. I figured either Maul would somehow know how to get there, or else we would just walk from the coast. We'd get to see more of Kalos that way!

Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!

Hotel Richissime, Lumiose City

Chip: Oh, cool! That's kinda why I'm here, too. I'm mainly here to study the Holo Casters, but there's plenty of other things to do too.

Lumiose City - Hotel Richissime

"Hi! Hi!" said iOS, waving at Chip, then looking back at Jacob "Anyway! Anyway! Ms.Hikari already got a head start! She's already started her research because she couldn't wait! It's been..."

iOS suddenly freezes in place for a good twenty seconds.

"... Half an hour since she left!" he finished.

Somewhere in Kalos

Allen nods "Understood." he said, as if he hadn't heard the last part.

Goldenrod Airport

-Upon reaching the Airport, Straw has been told that he can't board until he hands over the Resurrection Beads, or removes them-

...I forgot I had those.

Aurora:<Well, I hope you can get home fast.>

-Straw dashes out of the airport, and to the Magnet Train station-

Airship, hall

Brie: A dual-typer, huh? I never met anyone who did that.
