ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Ever Grande Hospital

-Ever is sitting in his bed, reading a terrible romance novel, when an official-looking person walks in, flanked by a Manectric-

Ever: Oh, hey. Who are you?

Official-looking person: I'm a representative of the Hoenn League. I was sent to discuss your entry into the Hall of Fame.

Ever: I know what you're thinking, and no, I will not give you an autograph.

League Rep: I've met much more impressive champions than you.

Ever: Well, jeez, you make one joke...

League Rep: You made several. Most were terrible.

Ever: I'm wounded.

League Rep: Yes, that's why they sent me here.

Ever: ...Never mind. Am I in or not?

League Rep: Well, ordinarily we would have arrested you for the killing and subsequent poaching of an endangered species. Given, though, that it was rather apparently self-defense, the Hoenn government is not pressing charges.

Ever: It's quite a relief to know I'm not under criminal jurisdiction for avoiding my untimely death.

League Rep: Furthermore, we are willing to extend to you a part in the Hall of Fame!

Ever: Yes! -fistpump, wince-

League Rep: Provided, of course, that you are indeed capable of defeating Steven in a battle.

Ever: Well, okay, I more or less expected that.

League Rep: You will have to use the team you originally challenged with, of course.

Ever: Oh, okay. I'm down to five, though, so I'll just get someone out of the bo—

League Rep: The exact team, I'm afraid, unless you would prefer to begin from Sidney again.

Ever: ...Oh. Well then.

League Rep: Have a nice evening.

Ever Grande City

Deziree: Oh, wow. You, uh... you want some help with that in the future? I mean, you might end up a Staravia... or a Pelliper... or a Flaaffy...

Ever Grande City

"It is isn't it?" Sakura giggled

"Those were less stressful times, at least for me." said Lyuri, with a chuckle.

Mirage Forest

-Bartelby rolls his eyes at Starkeeper's words-

Bartelby: <Typical. I do hope you fix the job more fully, Snowman; I'd do it myself but I've got a deadline on a novel that's awfully close.>

Ever Grande City

-Iggy yaaaaawns-

Lane:You've been pretty tired lately, Iggy...

Iggy:Am nooooooooot -.-

Ever Grande City

-The look on Sarah's face can almost be described as dreamy.-

Sarah: They really were good times...

-But her expression goes away as she blinks back to the present-

Sarah: Er, anyway! My room's right this way!

-She heads out the door-

Ever Grande City

-a certain friendly white-haired boy may be near Iggy, with a Roserade-

Ever Grande City

-Yaaaawn~

Iggy:Hai Mr. Joseeeeph. Hello pretty Roserade~

-She waaaaaves-

Ever Grande City

Joseph: Aww, are you tired? 3:

Nightshade: <I can wake her u->

Joseph: Nope.

Ever Grande City

Iggy:I've been practicin' all day~

^~^

Venti:Peeeede! ^-^

Mirage Forest

Snowman: Oh? Now why would I want to fix things that, in my eyes, make things more interesting? Mortals are paradoxically interesting and yet boring creatures of habit. Throwing a wrench into the works and watching them scramble... it's the sugar and the bitter pill for me~.

As for me, I've been a busy Beedrill. Starting up my own business (courtesy of Prime), doing favors, granting "wishes". All that good stuff~

I was also doing a lot of research into cursed bloodlines, and how to manipulate them ever so subtly to craft a more perfect model. However, that's put me in a bit of a damper as my trainer chewed me out for meddling in such affairs.

Though, that future me is certainly one hell of a secretary, from what I've gathered~

Ever Grande City

Joseph: Practicing?

Nightshade: <For what?>

-together-

(<)Conteeeeeeests?(>) <3

Ever Grande City

Duke looks back at the sisters for a moment, shrugging before going after Sarah

"So, superhero huh?" said Lyuri

"Yes, superhero." she giggled "Sorry for not telling about this."

"Nah, it's fine." Lyuri smiled then gave Sakura a hug "I'm really proud of you, sis, you just keep getting better and better."

"You stop that before you make me go all red." she hugged back, a little embarrassed "Thanks though."

Ever Grande

Iggy:Y...Yuh-huh...

-She tints a little-

D Idja...see me on the tv?

Venti:Pede?-headtilt-

Ever Grande

-affectionate head ruffle-

Joseph: Of course I did! You did great!

Ever Grande City

-Sarah reaches her room, and nearly instantly flops onto the bed-

Mirage Forest

-Starkeeper resists the urge to facepalm at Snowman-

Starkeeper: ...I can already tell that's going to be a major headache later...

Ever Grande

-Iggy's head rocks back and forth with the rubs-

Iggy:I only got third thoooough.

|3

Ever Grande

Joseph: Sweetie, it was your first contest! Third is a great showing to start out with. Not even Mimmy won her first contest! ...I don't think.

Ever Grande City

Duke then comes in "Wow. You really are tired."

Mirage Forest

Bartelby: -glaring at Snowman- <...I'm starting to doubt you even know what the concept of empathy is, much less comprehend it.>

Ever Grande City

-Sarah nods-

Sarah: Yeah...

-She sits back up-

Sarah: Probably a good idea to get pajamas on though.

-She stands up again and digs a pair of pajamas out of her bag before heading into the bathroom-

Ever Grande

Iggy:I suppose~

^-^

And at least that meanie Heidi didn't win!

-!-

Oh!

-She digs the gold and red pokeblock dispenser, filled with the Thorne's Pokeblocks, out of her bag-

And the boy who won, Johnathan, gave me the prize!

Ever Grande

-gasp!-

Joseph: Aww, isn't he a little sweetheart? And it's so nice looking, too!

-further head ruffles-

Ever Grande City

-Further head rocking~

>w<

'Iggy:Doesn't it? =D

-She giggles-

I hope I can do another soon~

Ever Grande City

Duke then starts taking out his jacket and hanging it somewhere before sitting on the bed and waiting for Sarah
