Welcome/Welcome back, you crazy diamonds!

[spiritcrystal]

[An island! This is most certainly not where everyone was just a few moments ago. ...Alright, maybe some of you were on an island. Don't get cheeky.

At everyone's feet is a small note. It gives no description of their location or explanation, of course; it only says one simple thing.

Please choose one.

The note comes along with three Pokéballs with different "starter" Pokémon in them- the three Pokémon can be anything, from a Froakie, Charmander, and Treecko to a Rattata, Patrat, and Bidoof if you're particularly unlucky- and everything in between. If it's not a legendary Pokémon, it's fair game.

Of course, you can only pick one! Trying to go for a second will leave you thinking that you better not get too greedy. If you're one of those types that wouldn't care either way, the other two Pokéballs will simply disappear.

Now go forth, and into a world of Pokémon!]

Maybe...or we could also be knights that are a bad-guy fighting duo, too!

[They could be the Torterra Knights! ...Or something.]

[tomboygirl]

[The Torterra Knights sounds really cute... Okay, she'll give in. Curses.]

That's fine with me. Someone has to watch your back, after all. I'll just worry if you're a solo hero.

[rivalheroics]

[Ahaha]

Well I'll be making sure that I've got your back when the going gets rough, so don't worry about a thing Dawn, you can count on me!

[tomboygirl]

[She nods!]

I know I can. I hope it doesn't come to that, though. This place seems nice... [And nice things don't tend to last, but you know.] Nicer than the last, anyway.

[rivalheroics]

...Yeah, definitely. That lab place had some cool stuff and all, but it had that jerk...AI or something that was running the place? [You know, the Arceus AI that wanted to test on them and stuff.]

[tomboygirl]

[Yeah, she knows. The AI'd kind of reminded her of a child, actually, but she wasn't any less harsh on him...]

It... He wasn't too bad, actually. Just ran the place and all. Without the AI, I doubt anyone could've survived a week. [Made sure they were fed, always had a way out even if it might be a tough way, a lot to explore and keep them from going crazy in boredom...] Kinda like a kid too. He didn't realize that sorry couldn't excuse everything and wanted to do more research on different emotions and stuff.

[rivalheroics]

So it might have been more like an immature brat or something? [huh] I guess that's one way to look at it.

[tomboygirl]

Right. I mean, it doesn't excuse the fact the AI forged our signatures and all that, but. [Shrug.

She stands, brushing off her skirt and picking up Buckbi before leaping back onto Wigbi. Safety.] At least we got to do some cool things there. Like meet those foreign Pokémon and all.

[rivalheroics]

Yeah, that's true! I was able to catch an Emolga, and you were able to catch..."Fuzzbi", right? [Yep, that was it's name, he's sure of it.] And here they let us meet even more foreign Pokemon--these places sure like to give away free Pokemon, don't they?
