ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

League Lobby

Ever: Yeah, but shouldn't you have, like, pretended to be Mezzo or something?

Near Ever

Robin: -sweatdrops- Er, It's Robin. Fire Emblem guy. Or Smash Bros.

League Lobby

Ever: Ooh! I'm a big fan!

-checks Robin's feet for prosthetics-

Ever: Can you cast Tomes?

Victory Road.

Salvador: That's the base chakras opened. Now... You should be able to open the First Gate.

Salvador and Shaka take a sip of the remaining tea.

Victory Road, past

-Confused-

You mean like try doing it right now?

Victory Road.

Salvador: Well you could try, but I don't think you'll be able to open it. Not right away...

Future!Shaka: Remember what we said about Gates manifesting in different ways lad? Like a spiritual thumbprint.

Salvador: Well, the methodology of opening the First Gate (and the subsequent Gates) also varies from person to person.

Future!Shaka: In other words, we can't teach you the next bit. You need to figure that out yourself.

Salvador: I am curious to see how it manifests in you, though.

Victory Road, past

Okay, how do you guys do it for instance?

Victory Road.

Future!Shaka: Practising Fencing while focusing.

Salvador: -Bluntly- Self harm.

Victory Road, past

-Beat-

Yeah I don't think self-harm would work out for me.

-Half-jokingly to Salvador-

And here I thought you did that eye-piercing thing just to look awesomely creepy.

Ever Grande City, yesterday

Mezzo: Mezzopiano Morendo, Mezzo for short. And you are?

Hoenn Pokémon League

Mezzo: -waves to Robin-

Victory Road.

Salvador: No... It's... a part of the ceremony for me. Drawing my own blood.

Salvador looks over to Shaka.

Salvador: What was father's?

Shaka raises a curled finger to his lip.

Future!Shaka: Memory is a bit fuzzy... but... I think it was dance, initially.

Had circumstance not been what it be, he probably would've become a dancer, actually.

Victory Road, past

So if I'm understanding correctly you need some sort of focus, like making a Construct using a Medium, except your own body is the Medium.

Victory Road.

Salvador: That is an excellent way to put it.

Victory Road, past

Hmm, then it might not be all that much different than summoning my chains, at least for me.

Victory Road

Salvador: -Shrug- You do you

Victory Road, past

I guess I will.

Victory Road

Salvador reclines into Shaka, who doesn't seem too fussed about the young man currently leaning into him.

Salvador: As I said, I'm curious to see what happens

Ever Grande, League Lobby

-Ever is getting some fresh air-

???: <So I guess people will notice if that Altaria of yours goes missing, huh?>

Ever: You again?

Fennekin: <Me again.>

Ever: I suppose there's no point in asking how you got here, right?

Fennekin: <None at all. You got rid of that Latios, then?>

Ever: Hang on, did you know the first time you met him?

Fennekin: <Um, duh? Humans are so blinkered.>

Ever: ... -sigh- Okay, what do you want?

Fennekin: <Well, you have a spare team slot, don't you?>

Ever: Yes, and plenty of applicants. Why should I give it to you? I could catch a Dunsparce. Or a Deino. I've been thinking about training a Deino.

Fennekin: <All the way in Unova? I'm right here.>

Ever: That's not a very good reason.

Fennekin: <You also need a Fire-type.>

Ever: ....How long have you been following me for?!

Fennekin: <I plead the fifth.>

Ever: Just because I'm from Unova doesn't mean I actually have to listen when you do that.

Fennekin: <Really? Darn.>

Ever: So am I getting an answer sometime today?

Fennekin: <Well, if you aren't planning on catching me, why are you holding that Ultra Ball?>

Ever: Betrayed! Betrayed by my own— Breeze?

Breeze: <A Fennekin! We need another Psychic-type that isn't a scary cat!>

-Breeze jerks Ever's arm forwards, and catches the Fennekin-

Ever: You know, Breeze, normal Trainers make their own decisions about what Pokemon to catch.

Breeze: <Sounds dumb.>

Ever: ...So why are you here?

Breeze: <Oh! Well!>

Ever Grande City, Duniree's Room

-Dune and Deziree are cuddling on the couch.-

Dune: I wonder if I should do another gym challenge...

Deziree: I'd like to see you go for it, again. You did pretty well in the Kalos one.

Dune: Well, yeah, mostly. Having Eos with me really helped, though.

Deziree: I wonder where we're going next! I hopes it's Sinnoh, we haven't been there before~

-Dune shivers.-

Dune: I'd rather not. Way too cold for my tastes.

Deziree: Oh, c'mon! Just wear layers!

Dune: Says the girl who go out in snow in a long shirt and vest.

Deziree: Hey, don't blame my physiology!

Ralley Point Lima

-Maria is still trying to pick the lock on the cases-

Rally Point Lima

-The locks are stubborn, but the first one opens with a dull *kuh-lunk!*-

-The case opens, revealing a small stack of very old, dusty discs. They don't appear to be labeled in any way.-

Rally Point Lima

Maria:Finally!

-She beams-

Right...

-She dust off the discs.-

T Ms? Or..maybe H Ms? But...there's no marks...

-She keeps looking them over-

Hmmmm...
