ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Bye for now.

-nods- Cool.

...So, what are you guys doing?

We were actually going to stay in Sinnoh for a little while. After that...I'm not sure. I think we've got a short stop in Johto planned, and in about a month we're all going to head to the Orange Islands for a vacation, but there might be more we want to do in between.

- Seems a bit lost in thought -

Well um...

All right.

...Yes, Tagg?

I was going to bring a bunch of you guys over to Unova for a week since I have to go research the Tynamo Line.

-Darmanitan (whose name I have yet to think of) has found a large boulder outside that he can punch to his heart's content-

(thinking) Hmm... Maybe I can catch myself a Petilil while we're in Unova...

-tilts head- What're you thinking about, sweetie?

- Looks over at Wolf -

Oh, I was just thinking about maybe catching a Petilil while we're in Unova. I was also thinking about a few other things, but they don't really have anything to do with anything we're talking about right now.

A Petilil? Hmm... Yeah, it would be fun to have a Petilil in the group.

I think I'd like to come along. I'd like to see Unova when it's not completely crazy...

I think I want to raise some Pokemon other than just Bug types.

Like a Roserade... or an Ambipom!

- Looks over at Anom -

Oh, that sounds interesting.

Briar Rose: <Ooh, a Roserade? Cool!>

Yeah, I was hoping for a Roserade. Hey, maybe they could make friends with you!

Briar Rose: (giggles) <Yeah! That would be nice!>

Hey Rose, what do you want to do?

Briar Rose: (looks over at Wolf) <Huh? Oh, um... I'm not sure!> (giggles)

You can't think of anything?

Briar Rose: <Guess I'll go wherever DS goes. Unless she sends me back to PC storage or something.>

-wakes up and notices Sunny sitting at her laptop-

Sunny: <Oh, good morning, sleepyhead.>

Sunny? What are you doing with my computer?

Sunny: <Talking to Shadow.>

That's all? Not writing some new fanfic?

Sunny: <I haven't really felt like writing much, actually.>

...Wow, that's unusual for you.

Sunny: <I keep thinking about Kensei. I think I'd like to talk to him again.>

Felis: <You'd get the same result from talking to the wall.>

Sunny: <Hey! He's nice, okay? Just kinda shy. I think.>

[OT] Goldenrod City

-While a nurse is checking Shahinne and feeding her some Wurmple, I'm on the next room with a Kadabra and Maekrite.-

-arms crossed while Kadabra stares at Maekrite deeply, somehow examining him-

— Maekrite, I am angry. The Xatu told me that you started annoying the Pokémon around here to get the Nurse to call me.

????!Maekrite (scratching his ears) — <I was trying to talk to the human but she doesn't understand me and I wanted to get you here because I need to-> — turns and notices the Kadabra, leers — <You still here, homba? Nido ni nido ni, now just... go away. And don't think...> — shows his fangs — <of reading my mind.>

Kadabra♂ — <So spoiled.> — sighs and shakes his head — <You'll need my help for your human to understand.> — to me — <You raised him stubborn.>

????!Maekrite — <I'm gonna be fine.>

-I frown at Maekrite, obviously there's something that he doesn't want to tell me in front of the Kadabra, not to mention the little detail that I can understand him-

— Just... tell the Kadabra exactly what's bothering you so that we can go away.

-Maekrite's ears flicker, then he thinks for a moment, leering at the Kadabra the entire time, and lowers his head-

— Did the thing with the Houndoom go OK?

????!Maekrite — <Yeah, it did...> — scowls.

-I refrain myself from answering with a "So?" until the Kadabra motions towards me-

Kadabra♂ — <He says things went OK. Not that he seems to be too happy about that.>

— Thanks... - to Maekrite - So, then?

????!Maekrite — <There's a very important Nidoran... he said I have to go an important place North, soon.>

-Kadabra relays that to me mentally, from which I surmise we are needed at the Colony. Perhaps it's Inka. After thanking the Kadabra and offering him a treat, I order Maekrite to get ready while I go excuse myself with the Nurse-

Nurse — Your Starly is OK. She was just pretty surprised when she hit the door. I guess this is her first trip around?

— Yeah, definitively. She's not even a week old. Shahinne, ready to go explore more places?

Shahinne (jumps around) — <Oh yes! Explore! I can fly around right?>

Yes you can... but very carefully!

— Heh... Come here, free ride. — I sit her on my head.

Nurse — Be careful if you are going to that colony at the north.

— Of course I will be.

-Some moments later, Maekrite, Shahinne and me depart from the Pokémon Center. When we reach Rt.35 I turn east to enter the Colony territory, and only then I remember that the territory is not as large as in the other timeline-

????!Maekrite — <Not that way, Silent...>

— Oh?

????!Maekrite — <We have to go more to the north... to Ho-Oh's place.>

— You want to go to the towers?

-After some brief deliberation which is not as important to Shahinne as the worms she's managed to collect, we depart to the north-

-after a ton of traveling, I've finally managed to release all the mons that wanted to go except Darrel, Rage, and Sokka, and returns to the villa, climbing a tree and collapsing on a branch, leaning back against the trunk and staring up at the sky-

-Dana, who is not talking to me because she blames me for Ryder leaving, goes to find someone else to play with. Robin follows to make sure she doesn't get in trouble, and Ian sends Nova with them just to keep all the kids in one place-
