ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

- Mumbling in my sleep -

... Yes, HotStuff... I noticed too...

Have to go now. I'll be back later this afternoon.

-The residences of Ring Town we're rather shocked that morning at the sight of a White Dragon Pokémon with a trainer on it's back and what appeared to be a Feraligatr tucked under it's wing fly overhead and touch down in the nearby Lyra Forest. Thankfully for us, they didn't seem to want to investigate further.

Right now, me, my Pokémon, and Reshiram are spending some time relaxing near the river.-

Well this is a nice place, isn't it? I love natural places like this. I'm guessing you do too?

Reshiram: <That's right, I love nature. Especially green places like this.>

Hmm. I'm guessing you're not such a fan of cities then?

Reshiram: <Not really. Zekrom loves built up places like that though.>

Well that doesn't surprise me. Speaking of Zekrom...I wonder how him and Jane are doing right now?

Reshiram: <With any luck, they should be here soon. Along with everyone else.>

I haven't spoken to them since we left either. I hope they're not worried about us.

Reshiram: <I doubt it Luke. But only because they know we can take care of ourselves.>

...Yeah, I guess you're right.

-Is having a Flashback dream about the wonderful times she's had back in the Pinwheel Forest.-

-has been sitting next to... I dunno, Meddler I guess, and watching Star Wars this entire time. It ends and I pull out my earplugs and shut down my laptop, leaning against the seat back. Suddenly I notice that several members of the group have small-ish Pokemon out. Deciding I might as well, I release Ian, who happily curls up in my lap and starts purring-

Are we starting Hunt For The Red Gamer today?

Also, I have a field trip, so I won't be on till like 7:30 EST.

Also also: Hi, Librarian, Dragonhunter, and anyone else who showed up and I missed it! I was reading Throne of Fire today and didn't get on much.

Also also also: I'd suggest giving Jane your time zone. She has a spreadsheet so we can make times that everyone can be on at the same time.

-Hatbox wakes up and notices that Ian is awake and decides to talk to him-

Hatbox: Hatbox wants to say hello to Ian and Miss Crewe! So Hatbox says "Hello!"

-Ian looks over, looking happy to see Hatbox-

Ian: <Hi, Hatbox! It's nice to see you too! I think Crewe is about to fall asleep at the moment. Do you know what time it is?>

Hatbox: Well. The time outside is dark, so the time inside must be light!

-Beat-

In other words around 4 A.M Ian!

Ian: <Oh! Thanks, Hatbox. I guess that makes sense. I can't really tell the passage of time inside my Pokeball. Sometimes I manage to talk to George, but mostly I just sleep while I'm inside. What about you?>

Leaving for school in like five minutes, and then I won't be on till after I get home from Dorney.

Hatbox: In Pokeball. Hatbox sleeps on an upside down rainbow goldtree! That means Hatbox sleeps upside down. Sometimes, Comrade Oswald or Comrade Zecora visit Hatbox, Comrade Oswald brings seeds and Comrade Zecora brings a nice herbal tea! Or Comrade Sun comes and beats up Hatbox (Isn't Comrade Sun nice?), but otherwise Hatbox has a rather slow and chilling time in Hatbox's Pokeball!

@ Crewe: Uhhh....How about tommorow? We can stay at a hotel the night we arrive, Gamer sneaks off to do his thing while everyone else is asleep.

-walks over to group-

Is there a Murkrow over here? My Pokemon have been trying to sleep and it's bugging my Espeon. By the way, I'm Straw.

Oh hai Straw! Are you part of the Straw Hat Pirates?

Um, no. Actually, my Zorua here was rescued from pirates.

Zorua: ...

-Hatbox hears a new stranger, and goes over to introduce himself-

Hatbox: Hatbox says "Hello! I am Hatbox!" Hatbox is sorry if Hatbox has annoyed your Espeon. You see, Hatbox was just talking to another Espeon called Ian not far from where you were sitting... Mister/Miss...?

-Beat-

Hatbox: It seems that a lot of trainers like Espeons. Master Fool has Zecora, Miss Crewe has Ian, I've heard that Miss DS has one too. I wonder who else in our group has an Espeon?

Mister Straw. And don't worry about Aurora. She'll be fine inside her Poke ball.

edited 17th Jan '12 2:58:40 PM by strawberryflavored

Hatbox: Hatbox is sorry for bugging Mister Straw. Maybe Hatbox will make up for it one day! Hatbox likes helping people. Where do you come from Mister Straw? Hatbox comes from Obliva (Teakwood Forest to be percise!) and master Fool comes from Pinwheel Forest in a land called Unova!

Master Fool and Hatbox both come from Forest! Isn't that cool?

edited 20th May '11 5:16:13 AM by PippingFool

I'm from Saffron City in Kanto. I've also been to Unova, Hoenn, Johto, and Sinnoh.

Hatbox: So big city Mister Straw come from? Nice! Hatbox hasn't seen much outside of Oblivia and a small part of Kanto. Master Fool has travelled Unova and Oblivia, and has seen small parts of Orre and Kanto and that's about it.

-I startle myself awake from where I'd been sitting near Fool- Urg...are we there yet?

Hatbox: Hatbox likes Mister Straw and his team! Maybe tomorrow! Hatbox will get to know Mister Straw team better! The we can have adventure time! Yes! And Hatbox will get Master Fool to intoduce Comardes MGMT, Zecora, Oswald, Arachne and Sun to Mister Straw and his team! This is a good idea that Hatbox came up with!

-Beat-

Hatbox:Anyway. It was nice talking to you Mister Straw! But Master Fool is going to be worried if Hatbox no there in Master Fool lap when Master Fool wakes up! So Hatbox say bye bye to Mister Straw!

-Hatbox flies back to Fool, Fluffs himself and starts to rest. Fool however wakes up for a split second to answer Librarian's question-

Hm....? We should be landing in about 4 hours Librarian... *Yawns*

-Falls back to sleep-

I don't know how much longer I can stay up... Good thing today it is Friday

Bye Hatbox!

-goes off to find something to do for the next 4 hours-

-I see Straw walking off and walk after him- Uh, hi. What's your name?

Straw, and your name?

Librarian. -I motion to Kenshin- This is Kenshin-

-Haunter pops out of his Poke Ball again and gives Straw a massive lick from chin to hairline-

...and Haunter. Sorry, he does that.
