Could you be more specific?

[Keeping Up With the Next Generation: An All-Purpose Guide to All That Stuff Those Kids From Other Regions Keep Talking About.

That's the name of the book Kris is reading in some weird and strangely specific library. Some other hits she sees in the shelves are How (Not) to Deal With Meddling Kids in Caps, It's Not All Black and White, The Series of Guys That Cramped My Style And Messed With My Social Life, and Hot Enemy Problems: Part 1.

But it's a large library. A huge library. The possibilities are endless... and very specifically tailored to everyone's needs.]

It's easy. I mean... When I started out with Wigbi, I was thinking of something to name him that'd be easy to remember. The -bi kind of stuck because it was-- well, it was cute. [Barrbi would've been a cute nickname for her best friend... if he deserved it.

... Junbi is too embarrassing to say though. Not going to nickname people ever.] Just same it whatever you think's nice sounding! Or not at all. Your Pokémon seem pretty close to you even without it.

[rivalheroics]

Hm...I'll give it some thought--if I do decide to nickname it, I want to make sure that it's a good one!

[Maybe later once Emolga's been healed up he'll let it out and see what comes to mind?]

[tomboygirl]

[That'd be a good idea. After all, if she'd known what trouble her own Buneary would be despite its nature she wouldn't have called it something as cute as Bunbi.]

That's right, there's no rush to it. But now that thaaat's over. [She stretches!] I'm ready to catch more Pokémon! It's like I have a second wind!

[Dawn, you should probably sleep.]

[rivalheroics]

[Are you sure you don't need more sleep? Then again, maybe that really would just make it harder for her to sleep later that night. So for now, he just grins.]

Oh yeah? What kinda Pokemon do you wanna catch next?

[tomboygirl]

I don't know... [Hmm. Still not gonna stand though.] Usually, I'd go to Solaceon and see what the newspaper wanted me to bring them that day, but we don't have that here. They've asked me for Pokémon I couldn't find before, so maybe I'll look for them here. Like Skunky and Murkrow. It'd be nice if I could take them home once the experiments are done with. I like Fuzzbi a lot.

[But she'll be honest with herself, she finds Jun good company and wouldn't mind even practicing her aim on sneaky Ekans and quick Pidgey.]

[rivalheroics]

Oh, yeah... [He hadn't even thought bout the possibility that he wouldn't be able to bring any of the Pokemon he caught here back with him.] Well I hope we can--it's the least they could let us do after having to take part in these experiments of theirs, right?

[tomboygirl]

Right! I mean... I wonder if these guys were born here, or if they were brought in from their home regions, and if they've ever even seen people before we were signed up. [She pauses, glancing at Fuzzbi.] That's pretty weird to think about. What would they even do once we left? Release them?

[rivalheroics]

...Good question. [Looking at Fuzzbi too.] Maybe they release them, maybe they just put them back where they got them...or maybe that's the Pokemon's choice for whatever they want to do? Then whoever wants to stay with us can come back to our regions too and the others can go wherever they want.

[Or at least he kind of hopes that's the case.]

[tomboygirl]

[Fuzzbi nuzzles Jun, then goes to rest on Dawn's head instead. Hey Trainer. She smiles, reach up to pet the bat.]

Well, I guess it doesn't matter right now. We don't even know when we're going to be able to leave. And it'd be bad to try and blast open a hole on our own, right?

[Not like you tried it or anything, Jun. B(]

[rivalheroics]

Heh, yeah, that doesn't really work out too well...

[He would know, he actually tried that when he first got here.]

So what? We just continue to make the best of it for now?
