Running to the city is a much different experience as a pokemon than as a human. Mostly because the way my mind processes information is much different than his does. Mine puts far more focus on the scents and sounds coming up than on what the appearance is. So approaching the city is more of gradually encountering more and more scents coming to us and more and more sounds. Human civilizations are very busy things, with tons of people going about their day, even into the early night as we are. And there is a ton of noise to encounter, from pokemon battles to running errands. We run past some pokemon that are setting things up for later. They do watch us warily, especially me considering what they’re carrying around but they don’t make any effort to get in our way, especially since other than a passing fascination we also aren’t giving them too much attention.

“So what do you think they’re all doing here?” Maria asks, glancing back at all of the golems and machokes helping the humans move boxes around.

“Something for later. They need to make sure everything is set up for the event in two hours.”
