ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Yeah, I guess.

Uh, wait, how old were you again...?

Nineteen.

Oh, I didn't even realize.

Didn't realize?

What are your parents like, anyway?

My parents? They really like music, as I'm sure you can tell from my name.

Tangent: How many other Charizard are hanging around, anyways?

Basket: <Well, we have a lead at least- an island where a Tropius from maybe-my-flock lives. Fool caught his brother, and he suggested we ask there.>

<...He remembered a storm that some saplings were lost in, at least...>

<...>

<...Maekrite, have you dyed your fur or something? And... what kind of fight did you get into?>

Yeah, I can tell.

What are their names?

Mia and Vincent.

Cool! I was expecting something...weirder, I guess.

-Has been signing a massive amount of waivers and contracts, which has been taking a long time because I've been reading the fine-print first-

Receptionist of Power: Okay Ms Fiveside, you have a few minutes to prepare your weapon and armor before I take you in for your first battle.

Good.

-Ducks off to an alcove to activate the auto-deploy on the outfit and get the electrowhip out-

Last night, Talking with Tangent

Kaepora: <However, if you want to go to the Island. You'll have to take me and Fool with you~>

<We're trusted there. Most wild mons, ESPECIALLY little bro, get a tad bit defensive if a unrecognised human arrives on the island. He'll think you're a Poacher~>

<Do you have that Pokeblock still~:3>

Well, they are kind of weird.

Well yeah. They named their children after dynamics, after all.

-to Basket-

Maekrite — <Wow, Fool caught a Tropius?>

— That's pretty convenient, Basket. I guess this might lead to happily good news.

-Maekrite shies a bit after Basket's comment-

Maekrite — <Errr... No I didn't... it's... ah...>

-I nudge Maekrite-

— You guys got the news about Lake and Nadia getting into a small test by Ho-Oh? And how they changed after that?

Maekrite — <As for the fight... there was a challenge... the worst part is that I won...>

-I decide to kneel and pet him behind the ears for a while-

— Kit got into an argument with a local Nidorino, the once-a-year kind of argument, if you get what I mean.

What about your parents? What are they like?

They're okay, I guess. Just a normal couple living in Ecruteak. My mom runs a breeding centre, and dad works in the Pokemon centre.

Sounds boring.

Yeah, kinda.

Last Night

Basket: <OH! Uh... can you come?>

Tangent: Not a problem if you'll do that for us... and... hmm, you've eaten most of my Pokéblock, but we can stop at the Kumquat market to pick up some more on the way, right?

Today

Tangent: I heard something to that effect...

Basket: <Aww...> -offers Maekrite a Pecha Berry, and lays down beside him-

<...you don't have to talk about it now. Unless you want to.>

Kinda like how bored we are right now. I wonder what everyone else is doing.

-shrug- This is Ren, by the way. I don't know if you've met.

Ren: -yawns- <Hi.>

Hi, Ren.

-Is ushered into the first room, a circular metal plaform is around a large metal pillar-

Okay, where's my opponent?

Receptionist of Power: You'll see. -Heads out and shuts the door-

...

-The platform begins rising-

!

Ren: -drapes herself over my shoulders- <Where is everyone?>

Felis: <They left because they weren't interested in spending any time with you. And really, I can see why.>

Hey, be nice.
