ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

Eskay's House

One shower later, Diane finds some less-sandy clothes to wear. Again, she had to borrow from Alli's closet. Despite having washed off all the sand, her vision was still blurry.

-is in the airport-

- Following Wolf -

How's little Candida?

Oh, I put her into a pokeball during the flight.

- Takes Candida's pokeball of my belt and lets the baby Seel back out of her pokeball -

Candida: (trying to chew on her own tail)

Hey there, Candida! (picks her up) Do you like your pokeball?

Candida: (looks around, slightly puzzled at the change of surroundings after being released from her pokeball, before noticing us) Seel! (smiles)

Oh my goodness, she is so cute. -wiggles my fingers at the baby Seel-

Candida: (giggles)

Such a sweetheart. -smiles- When we get to the lab, I'll introduce you to Rosemary. Would you like that?

Yeah, I'm sure Candida will like that.

Candida: (smiles) Seel!

Eskay's House

After roaming the house for a while, Diane comes across a pair of dusty glasses. From how much dust had accumulated on them, they looked like the last time they'd been used was about two years ago. Diane wipes the dust off and puts them on, and her vision becomes slightly less blurry. They weren't perfect... but they were better.

Fun fact: I actually did wear glasses. I started wearing contacts two years ago, hence the above mentioned amount of dust.

-tickles Candida for a second, and then starts looking for a way to get to New Bark Town-

Candida: (giggles)

Should we Fly to New Bark? Or perhaps take Bicycles? I think Goldenrod has a rental shop here, somewhere.

Eskay's House

In her boredom, Diane decided to look around Alli's room a bit. She notices a photo sticking out of a drawer, which, in her unfading curiosity, she opens... to find multiple pictures of the same guy, many of which had hearts drawn on them in pink. Many of them seemed to have been taken from a stadium crowd. Diane looks at the corner of one of the pictures, and finds a name to go with the blue-haired, bearded face in the pictures. Anom.

Yes. Alli is an Anom fangirl. And it even works well with her 4 motif – Anom was the fourth player character to be introduced in – and actually stay with – the RP. Also, his name is four letters.

Oh, I actually do have my bicycle with me in my backpack, even if I haven't used it much since I started travelling with the others.

Oh? I have one in storage. I just need to pick it up!

- Nods -

Okay!

Sara's grave

-Iron Maiden goes back to Straw and his mons, after having a moment alone at Sara's grave-

So what are you going to do now?

Iron Maiden:<I dunno...All I've ever known is life with Sara. I don't I'd fit in around here. And I don't know how to get home Altostratus Town in Unova.>

...Altostratus Town?

Iron Maiden:<Yes, that's where Sara and I came from. It's in the middle of a lush grassland. I think the nearest place is...Nimbasa?

...Mai, I don't think that town exists anymore. That area is a desert now.

Iron Maiden:<I see...Well, going home is out of the question then...>

Do you want to come with me?

Iron Maiden:<Hmm...I think I will.>

Great!

-Straw reaches into his bag and pulls out a Friend Ball-

Iron Maiden:<What is that? I've never seen an Apricorn that is made of metal and designed like that.>

It's a Pokeball. It stores Pokemon inside. This particular type of Pokeball is actually made from an Apricorn.

Iron Maiden:<Well, okay then...Are you sure it's safe?>

Well, all of my other Pokemon have one, so yes, I'd say so.

Iron Maiden:<Go ahead and us it on me.>

-Straw throws the Friend ball. It shakes once...twice...thrice...and clicks. Straw picks it up, and releases Iron Maiden-

Iron Maiden:<The insides of that device are very nice, Straw. It was like I was back home in Altostratus Town...>

Yeah, that's what Pokeballs do.

-Beat-

Say...when that gust of wind blew by earlier, did you hear a voice?

Iron Maiden:<Yes, I did...It sounded exactly like Sara's voice.>

I must have heard the same voice. I wonder what it could mean...

-In the background, Venusaur is lying down in some grass. Some Pidgey have assumed him to be a flower, and are standing on him-

Venusaur:<Pidgey!> -gets up-

-the Pidgey fly away as Venusaur gets up-

Venusaur:<Noooo! Come back Pidgey!>

-Magellan attacks one of the Pidgey, and begins to eat it, away from Venusaur's gaze-

Aurora:<...Seriously, Magellan?>

Magellan:<Well, a mon does have to eat.>

-leads the way to the Bike Shop-

- Follows Wolf -

Candida: (excitedly looking around at our surroundings while I carry her)

-picks up my bike from the shop- Ready?

I suppose. I'll just recall Candida first.

- To Candida -

You don't mind going back into your pokeball for a little while, do you?

Candida: (seems to be fascinated by random sign)

- Pets Candida -

I'll let you back out once we get to New Bark Town.

- Recalls Candida, and gets my bicycle out from the Key items pocket of my backpack -

Plumsp:-wakes up- <Wolf we there yet? :/>

It's very strange to watch someone pull something as big as a bicycle out of their backpack. -shakes it off- Let's go! -smiles, and starts pedalling-

We'll be there soon, Plumps. Hold on tight.
