Ecruteak Pokémon Center
-Lyuri then boxes Zap and withdraws Zack-
Lyuri: I guess he was there for too long already... -calls him out-
-Zack then appears and looks around, with a grin-
Zack: <So, I'm finally back huh?>
Duke: <Seems like it.>
Lyuri: You three go have some fun outside, I think I'm going to eat something now.
-Lyuri heads to the kitchen, while the three Pokémon go outside-
Ecruteak - With Sparkers and co.
Shade: <Congratulations Grant, you're a "place" now.>
Grant: <Yeah, not sure what to think of that.>
-Lily, seeing Sparkers leap in her direction, fires a small hurricane to send him back-
Lily: <No sell, puppy! You're not taking me out of this bubble.>
Stella: <It does look fun... Like, a load of fun!>
Dylan: <She did come first too...>
Near Tracer, yesterday
Arika: Yeah, it was grea-
Crown!Suicune: WOO! That was awesome!
-He pops out from behind the rock, along with Buggle and Depthcharge-
Buggle: Yeah! That was really something!
Depthcharge: I knew the water lady would win! :3
-Vyvyan, Crown!Entei, and Crown!Suicune reluctantly follow-
Crown!Raikou: Well, so much for keeping cover...
Crown!Entei: At least there aren't any other people around...
Vyvyan: -waves awkwardly- Um... Sorry about that. ^_^;;
Arika: -blinks- Looks like we had some spectators...

Grant: <And that would be?>
Lily: <I think he wants you to show off some moves, you know, fanboy things.>
Shade: <You're almost as annoying as one, Lily.> -sighs-
Ecruteak - Near the Center
-Duke and Jordan are informing Zack about what happened yesterday-
Zack: <Woah, those two started doing some hardcore stuff while I was out huh?>
Jordan: <Well, sorta.>
Duke: <You sound amazed by that...>
Zack: <Eh, just got surprised, Zap's fine right? What about the other kid?>
Duke: <I dunno, he just ran off, I->
Jordan: <Must be because everybody was staring at him, and you glaring at others is really scary>
Zack: <Heh, so the kid finally pushed your buttons? If you got mad at him he must've screwed up badly... Well, I'll go look for him, I bet he'll be surprised when he sees me> -chuckles-
Duke: <For all the wrong reasons.>
-Zack then walks off leaving Duke and Jordan behind-
Jordan: <Should we go with him?>
Duke: <I think so, I can find Riku with Aura, but I just want to make sure Zack doesn't make things worse, so let's just watch while hidden.>
Jordan: <So, we're going to play spy?>
-Duke then chuckles for himself and waits until Zack is far away to start following him, while not being see, Jordan just follows him-
Every's House
-this isn't gonna be another one of those times when the Yamask accidentally engulfs the place, will it?-
Larva: <Pleaaaaaase?>
Metentis: <No. I am not going with you to the amusement park.>
Larva: <Come on, why not?>
Metentis: <Too bright, too loud, and too crowded.>
Larva: <Hmph.>
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.-Is in the living room, examining a certain yellow sphere-
Hugging a Vanillite will give you frostbite.-Twirls it between my fingers as it falls into the palm of my hand as the iPhokex plays a sentimental tune
-
Found it once when I was a little kid, along with a whole bunch of junk. Anyway, we should be heading over to Blackthorn.

-Des is surprised by Vrang's sudden appearance-
Des: Well I wouldn't say pupil. I guess we have this agreement thing. I teach him proper etiquette, as well as showing him the path to enlightnenment, while he is giving me combat tips
Ecruteak
Sparker: <Well Des recently received a Fire Stone for christmas, and well I assume he's going to use it on me. But I don't think I'm ready to become an Arcanine yet. So I was wondering if you could give me some tips?>
Crewe's Cave - Yesterday
-Alyssa sits against the wall again, and looks at Wonder and Sapphire's Poké Balls.-
Alyssa: <I couldn't do anything... It was like they were still wild Pokemon...~>
-She puts the two Poké Balls away.-
Alyssa: <She was right... I'm not supposed to be a Trainer... I'm no leader, I shouldn't even bother...>
Ecruteak - Near the Bell Tower
Gex: <Maybe we should go back to the Pokémon Center and see how Zap's doing?>
Riku: <... Yeah, we should...>
Zack: <Hey Riku!>
-Riku then notices Zack coming and gets up, Gex just looks at Zack with a rather curious expression.-
Gex: <Who's that guy?>
Riku: <One of our teammates... Hi Zack.>
Zack: <You look pretty down, is it because of Zap?> -smirks-
Riku: <Yeah... It was my fault he got hurt like that...>
Zack: <And you're just going to sit there and whine about it? You're a real wimp you know.>
Gex: <You know, that's not helping.>
Riku: <B-But->
Zack: <But what? It was Zap that started all that am I right? It's always him.>
Riku: <Y-Yeah... But I knew that it would end badly, but I still went along with it, so it's my fault this all happened...>
Zack: <So? This just means that you really should start being less of a wimp and stand up for yourself, it's really easy to pick on you because of that, heh.>
Riku: <I guess so...>
Zack: <Next time Zap suggests something doomed to failure, you should at least not get involved with it, unless you're dumb enough to let him boss you around.>
Gex: <I'm not sure if he's being nice or a jerk...>
Riku: <He doesn't listen to me sometimes though...>
Zack: <Make him listen then> -shrugs- <You really need to stop being so submissive.>
Duke: -eavesdropping- <You didn't exactly help matters before.>
Riku: <You didn't exactly help with that...>
Zack: <Not my fault that you let yourself be intimidated so easily.> -looks aside- <That, and teasing you is fun.>
Riku: <Huh...>
Zack: <Stop being a wimp and stand up for yourself, that's all.>
-Zack then pats Riku a few times in the head before walking off, leaving a confused Riku and Gex behind-
Riku: <... I guess he's right.>
Gex: <Is he always like that?>
Duke: <''Was him trying to get Riku to stand up for himself all this time, or did he not realize that this advice may backfire on him later?>
Riku: <Not really... Let's go to the Pokémon Center now, wanna know how Zap is.>
Duke: <He's fine.>
-Duke then leaps off a tree, while Jordan was hiding behind it the entire time-
Duke: <You know, as weird as it is, Zack had a good point, if someone is doing something that you know it's bad, you shouldn't just follow him blindly.>
Riku: <Got it... Sorry about that Duke.>
Duke: <It's all right, just don't even do that again.> -pats Riku on the head-
Jordan: <That's a really weird Floatzel.>
Gex: <Yep, so, Zap's all right?>
Duke: -nods- <He's just going to be on the box for a while so he can rest.>
Riku: <Great, but I kinda miss him already...>
Gex: <Don't worry! I'll be your buddy from now on!>
Riku: <Well... Thanks, Gex.>

Des:Let's see, you went over the importance of boosting moves as well as observing not only my combatants actions but also my opponents reactions, both the 'mon and the trainer alike. I even used these in my battle against Hikari the other day. I managed to win though it was fought hard by both parties.

Des: Yeah. A bad dream...

Sparkers:<Now Pria, you stay here on Grant's head. It's one of the safest places I know.>
