 [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?

He has? What a terrible shame, both for you and for his Pokémon. Do you happen to have a keepsake of his? Something that still has his smell, to comfort those who are left?

Huh... I might, actually. From when we traveled together.

The most recent and most used, the better, but any object should have a positive effect. Let them sleep with it, if possible.

I didn't even think of that. I mean, Dittos don't look like they have noses, but that doesn't mean much with pokemon.

Especially with a shapeshifter who could cover itself in noses if it wished. ...Though I doubt it's in the mood for such transformations, at the moment.

That would be pretty funny though.

It would certainly cheer up its teammates, both old and new. And I've no doubt they need that cheer.
