ITT: We are all Pokémon Trainers

-I am blasted down to the second-highest wheel, near DS, crackling with electricity-

H-h-h-he's a-a-a-almost f-f-f-finished!

-The now-uncharged Serperior blindly slithers down below us-

Okay. I assume we'll do the same as earlier?

Y-y-yeah!

- Nods -

Okay!

- Jumps down onto the Serperior -

-That finishes it, and it falls down to the ground unconscious-

N-n-n-nice j-j-j-job!

-The dazed panflute Claydol floats out-

... You okay, Anom?

Odette: (looks over at Tulip) <Tulip?>

Tulip: <... Oh, why not, yes?> (goes over to finish off the Claydol)

-The red-haired girl wanders around Hamlin port, looking for Professor Ivy. She was told that the Professor would meet her here.-

-Is in the sub, heading to Golden Island, Susan is an unusual shade of pink and DS's Latias is helping pedal in human form in exchange for a small interesting but useless trinket I picked up on my Unova adventure-

Y-y-yeah!

-Twitches from the electrical shock I had been given-

-Watches Tulip somehow pummel the Claydol-

W-w-w-ithout arms, e-e-even!

-Professor Ivy sees the girl and walks over-

Professor Ivy: Hi! You must be Katie. I'm Professor Ivy.

Katie: Hello, Professor. Professor Oak told me that you would have something for me?

-steps off the boat, who wishes us luck, and starts wandering around Ascorbia-

Latias: -giggles- <You look very pretty in pink, Susan.>

- Looks over at Tulip -

Hehe... Yeah.

Odette: <Awesome, Tulip!>

Tulip: (blushes slightly) <Oh... Thank you, yes!>

-All the other Baltoy have evacuated-

That was... t-t-tiring...

-Susan smiles, the sub pulls up on Golden Island-

Well, here we are. According to the internet, this place is home to a cult that worships Meowth.

-Steps out onto the beach, looks around-

I wonder why there's noone here...

Yeah... You sure you're okay, Anom?

Professor Ivy: Yes I do. I have your Pokedex and Trainer card with me.

-Hands them to Katie-

Here you go.

I-I-I think I'll b-be okay...

... Okay then.

- Looks around -

So, where do we go now?

Katie: Thank you, Professor! Um...what should I do, now?

Latias: <So what are we looking for, Pentigan?>

Over t-there.

-We walk out the exit of the structure, and are met by dry air-

-The forest growth stops, and we are left on dusty orange cliffs, seas of tar spreading and cascading around us-

That was... abrupt...

Sunny: <You should talk to people. They might give you something you need!>

-rolls eyes- ...?

-starts talking to townspeople-

- Looks around -

... Yeah. Sure was.

Tulip: <...>

Odette: (tilts head slightly)

There's supposed to be a village of cultists.

-Manages to find a way to a cluster of huts... They're all empty-

Well this is bad...

Do we try to cross these cliffs, or stop here?

...Ugh, that tar looks really gross...
