 [Neku doesn't look happy, and in his arms is a goopy blue blob of a shiny ditto]

So I was hoping it was just one of the weird.... things... this place does some times. But I guess not. Luke fon Fabre has gone home. I got his Ditto and Smeargles, but if anyone got any of his pokemon and aren't willing to look after them just let me know.

[He looks about to turn his camera off, just as the Ditto, squishes closer to his chest, getting in the way]

Ngh, come on, you're not helping...

This isn't the first time I've gotten aban- er, left behind pokemon, but Poro seemed to handle it better- I think that's just because he was so young. Anyone got any advice to handling second handers?

Yeah, I guess so. We traveled together for awhile. Honestly I don't know how he ever managed to survive traveling on his own.

That sort of person, hm? I've known people like that.

I've inherited their Pokemon, too. It's never easy.

I've been pretty lucky so far, with people leaving. But I knew it'd happen eventually... I just hope he'll do better back home.

It always does, sooner or later. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to who stays and who doesn't.

As for your little friend, finding a companion for it among your own roster might be the place to start. One with a compatible temperament, that makes it feel calm and safe.

I think I have a few candidates that'll work. It's really I'll I can do for it...

A little good is still better than none.

That's true. I gotta do what I can, for Luke's sake too.
