“Honestly, I shouldn’t be asking how you know me. I should be more concerned with what you do know about me,” Colton realized, using his illusory abilities to give him those solid red Lycanroc eyes, piercing Strelitza’s soul.

In an editing room, a blond young man wearing the GeoSoc editor's shirt stares nonchalantly at a large and confusing stringed-up mess of a storyboard. His feet, which have [Heely] shoes, are rested on his workstation. He appears to be on the phone.
Video Editor: Hey Shutter, yeah. I'm calling to confirm what the Clavis Sciences guys brought over here. It appears to be some sort of board with string in it. Is this supposed to be a
Shutter, over the phone: Well, you see, Sparky, Tommy and I ended up getting stranded because of the Battle of Lumiose—
Video Editor: It's brilliant.
Shutter: You're joking. We were going to turn that into a proper storyboard.
Video Editor: Storyboard Schmoryboard. I can totally work with this. We're dealing with a seminal documentary on longstanding bond of humans and Pokémon. It's a story as old as domestication itself. We're the Geographic Society for Arceus' sake. We should push artistic boundaries with a documentary this heavy.
Shutter: No duh, but really, are you sure about this?
Video Editor: Totally. Say, did you know that Professor Willow's attending that exhibit in Kalos that you're covering. Says he needed to take a break from that paper he wrote with Professor Oak just a few months ago. It'll be published in November.
Shutter: Oh hey, that's good news. Be nice to reconnect with the old mentor. I'll ring up Tommy about this.
Video Editor: Also, word on the street is that Hawthorn's attending that party as well. Heard you weren't assigned. How'd you get invited?
Shutter: I'm my grandfather's plus one. Someone has to keep him away from the fae.
Video Editor: Saw his spaceship sculpture. Looks rad enough to eat.
Shutter: Of course it is. And dude, you have a word on who's narrating this series yet? Did they get Professor Cedric or did they ask Ryan Reynolds if he was free on a certain weekend?
Video Editor: Even better. We booked Brad Van Darn.

Ivan: "Hello, uh, Miss Theodora? I'm Ivan Losken from the Geographic Society of Kalos. I noticed your interesting cosplay and would like to ask you a few questions, for my upcoming piece on the cultural history of the 19th century. Do you have any words?
Tae grimaces as his eyes as he feels the area dry up, <Okay... could toss a rain dance or I coul- HYDRO PUMP!>
Tae spits a jet of water right at the Arcanine.
Yonut, in the past
Theodora stared at the young Sinnohan man, an adolescent by the looks of things. Someone's apprentice, perhaps. She then looked at the Unovan, who wore a T-shirt that bore the design of the Geographic Society. This man, though little older than the boy, was clearly the Sinnohan's superior.
She was still taken slightly aback that the Society had allowed Sinnohans membership. But then again, she was inducted into its ranks in its early days as one of the very few women allowed, thanks in no small part to her uncle pulling the right strings. Unpleasant wankers, the haughty geographers of 1897. Today's Geographic Society at least knew how to properly address a lady.
Theodora: Very well. I've always appreciated the Society, even if their membership hadn't always been as polite as they are today. Authenticity is in the details. This cannot be stressed enough.
Her lucario hands her a smartphone. She opens a folder on her phone.
Theodora: Forgive this most bogus break of immersion, but it simply didn't feel at all proper to show the detail in the clothing; it wouldn't be lady-like. This minuscule difference engine ought to present a few photographs of some of the stitchwork used in my wardrobe. The key is also to get the assistance of someone skilled in this craft.
She had a slideshow of various photographs of her clothes up close, showing the specific stitches used. At least one of the pictures features a familiar looking cyborg making a hilariously awkward yet clearly angry face. He has glowing red eyes in that picture that just seemed too over-the-top.
Theodora: Some enthusiasts believe that only exterior stitchwork should be done and there is little need for this dedication to 19th Century stitchwork in nonvisible surfaces. I say they are totally full of s**t.
She paused. She couldn't put her finger on it, but there was something peculiar about this Sinnohan.
Theodora: That isn't what you're asking, is it?

Due to his headphones, Colton did not hear what Strelitza muttered.
Minerva, however, heard clearly. She approached the Braixen and looked up, into her eyes. <Did you say something about being from the future?>
That, Colton heard. “Did she just say something about you saying something about being from the future?”
Inexplicably, a certain Blaziken materialized. <Did he say something about her saying something about you saying something about being from the future?>

Lila: You can hold a Cleffa, right?
Eva: Yup, are you sure it'll work?

Lila: Well, it comes out as a big outburst, I can use it but you'll probably have to carry me back.

Pokémon center lady: Your Cinccino is good to go. The Mareep seems to have pushed itself a bit hard. They did a jolly good job of hiding a sprained ankle. You said they were wild, right?Eva: Yes.
Pokémon center lady: It needs to stay off it's feet for a few weeks, would you mind taking care of it for that time.
Eva: Yeah, that's fine. Maybe I could become it's trainer if they want.
Pokémon centre lady: Ok, let me fetch your pokemon.
-she leaves, then comes back a few seconds later with the Mareep, now with a bandage around one of their legs, on a stretcher and Merah following behind-
Eva: Thanks. Any suggestions on how to carry a Mareep without getting shocked?
Pokémon center lady: I have some rubber gloves you could borrow?
Eva: I guess that'll have to do until I can stock up on pokeballs.

Eva: By the way, we've got another roommate.
-she gestures to the Mareep-
a Mareep: <Hi!>
Eva: The pokemon center nurse said they had to stay with us while their sprained ankle got better. I guess we'll have to take it easy for now.
Lila: Sounds good to me. Plenty of good tv shows in this region.
-Eva sets the Mareep down on her bed-
Eva: So, if you're staying, you should probably have a nickname. Are you already called something?
a Mareep: <Umm... Well, back where I'm from they call me pipsqueak, shorty, hiccup... The list goes on.>
Eva: Maybe not one of those.
Merah: <Those thundershocks hit pretty hard. While we were at the pokemon center I was thinking, and I think I've got a good one. How about Ampere?>

Ampere: It's got a nice ring to it. I'll take it.

Ewan, the lucario, was taken aback by the psychic message and was concerned by its context.
Ewan, mentally: <I'm afraid you've only more to be concerned about, my friend. See, you wouldn't be entirely wrong. I'm sensing my mistress already knows, though she cannot read minds or sense truths as your master does.>
Theodora: Well, this is certainly a shocking thing to hear about.
She points to the busgirl and to the doughnut shop manager. The busgirl hands Theodora her order and bows politely before leaving.
Theodora: Would you excuse us, I've urgent matters to discuss.
Busgirl: Certainly, madame.
Theodora turns to Ivan and what she presumes to be her superior. She sits down across the booth from them.
Ewan: <Mistress, our wordsmith here has auric powers. He and his pokémon can read our minds.>
Theodora: I've noticed.
She turns toward the two journalists.
Theodora: We seemed to not have been acquainted, good sir. Your understudy is a very gifted young man.
Tommy: Thomas Petersen, Geographic Society correspondent.
Theodora: I was not aware of the rash of kidnappings at this time but rest assured, you are in luck. I am aware of who is likely responsible. To that, I'd have to ask you a few questions myself. The assailants of which you speak, what were they dressed as?
Tommy: They were dressed in armor. Futuristic armor; the local authorities, including Interpol and the Gendarme, have concluded them to be a standard costumed criminal organization like that of the Former Team Rocket and Team Flare. They had technology well above the baseline.
Theodora: I was afraid of this. Ivan, have you personally encountered any increase in number of humans with mechanical parts in this specific area? I am aware that they are not supposed to be in great number.

Dave, still attempting to walk but now it's looking incredibly ridiculous: Seriously, why?

Yonut, Past
Theodora: Oh, you've been expecting David. We spotted him roaming around some distance from here. I'd say he's harmless, but we've played a game of meowth-and-rattata before, and his presence confirms my suspicions.
Tommy: We're familiar with Dave, alright.
Theodora: David Albright is a very low ranking member of an agency that styles themselves as the official law enforcement agency of the time stream. The Inter-Dimensional Police Department, they call themselves; it sounds like something out of a leisurely diversion coded into a difference engine. They're from further into the 21st Century.
Tommy: Albright? Didn't think he'd lie about his surname. Oh, Good Arceus. I should've recognized that tone somewhere.
Outside the Yonut
Dave finally musters the energy to start moving despite the telepathic hold on him. His eyes are inexplicably red. PC is being dragged.
Dave: Stupid psychic and Not-quite-Uncle Andy are not going to stop me from getting my doughnuts. Stupid Williams and her sneaseling out of an arrest.
PC, telepathically: <If you promise to only get the doughnuts and try to arrest Ms. Williams literally some other time, like when she's actually trying to mess with the timestream, I will let you go.>
Dave: If I say yes, will you let me have my doughnuts?
PC: <Fine. But I will stop you if you so much as do an [Inigo Montoya] routine in that Yonut.>
