2.6 | Video | New Bark Town

[scratchitti]

 Hold the camera still, Sota.

[A soft woof, and the camera focuses on Neku. NOT in his hotel room for once. And NOT even in Goldenrod. Looks like someone finally actually USED Fly to get somewhere. In fact, he's in New Bark Town, by the little dock. Blueberry the Dragonair is trying to get his attention, but Neku is too busy: juggling luggage.]

So ever since I lost to Whitney I've been thinking. Hanging around Goldenrod all the time is making me stagnate. Maybe a change of scenery will- Berry, what?

[The Dragonair cries softly, bunting it's nose against one of the balls on his belt]

No, I can't let Lemon out right now. They only allow a few pokemon out and apparently the goo is one of those things that are against the rules. You're the one that wanted to see the sea.

Wehooo....!

Anyway. I'm heading to Kanto to train for a few weeks. If anyone needs... anyone needs me they can- Damn it, Berry!

[The long snake-like dragon, wanting comfort due to being away from her partner, has decided to try and crawl up Neku's shirt to hide, coiling around his luggage and torso, her beaded tail twapping him in the head over and over as she tries to get comfy]

Ngh, Sota, help!

[The Lucario's muzzle comes on scene as he shuts off the feed]

Which ones are you taking along? I don't think I saw any of your budding artists.

I have my Dragonair, Goomy, Miltank, Persian, Lucario and the Smeargle puppy on me right now. He's too young to be on his own in the Box just yet. Though I'll probably rotate them out some point during the trip

Giving everyone a fair chance. That's diplomatic of you.

You're not likely to need them for the trip, fortunately. Though there are wild Pokemon in the ocean, they don't tend to pose the same sort of problems for the ferry that their cousins in the tall grass tend to.

Thank god for that, cuz I really don't need to start this with a Gyarados beaching up on the ship or something

Lucky for you that's fairly unlikely. And even if it did, the ferry crew would have safeguards in place for that.

...dan git, now I kinda want one.

Then you might be better off starting out with a Magikarp and raising it up into a Gyarados; that'll save you the trouble of fighting an angry sea serpent, and give you the opportunity to establish a rapport with it first.
