There is an old Hoenn myth about the ocean. It said that the sound waves make are the cry of the legendary Pokemon; Kyrogre calling for their lost child. I went a bit further out from town, far enough so their voices were muffled by the Kyogre’s cry.



(“Why did Arceus give me such ears?”) It was love-hate with this trait. I could hear stuff like an ice cream truck miles away or hear an onix closing in on my location. But, noisy places like the one in town or a hyper voice. I can’t stand it man. And the rumors about Jazz, it was like listening to a marathon of bizarre stories one after the other with no ways to mute it. Just like back home.



{“Purple Rain.”}

I looked up and saw Cinderella flying above, {Cinderella. How is everyone?”}

{“Still rough to wear. Peeko still shaken the and Poison Jam regain consciousness, but still recovering.”}
{“..and Paloma.”}

{“What about Paloma?”}

We all turned around and saw a Marshtomp with tails that looked like shnowgirls feathers. She had a concerned look on her face.

{“Who are you and how do you know Paloma?” }

{“Allow me to introduce myself. My name Manami, I’m a friend of Paloma.”}

{“I see. Well we got caught in the crossfire. she is still unconscious’ but she’ll pull through. That attack she took did a number on her. If that was anymore powerful attack and well…”}

The marshstomp clenched her fist, {“First Yami died and now Paloma. Is everyone I know going to suffer?”}
{“Whose Yami?”}

{“Yami was a saybleye we caught. He was killed by one of the Cavemen”}
{“They’re here too?”} Moon River asked. Manami nodded her head {“Damnit.”}

Cinderella put a wing on her shoulder, {“I’m sorry about your loss dearie. You have my condolences.”}

She nodded {“Thank you. I best go now. Me and my trainer are heading out. I pray to Arceus that we meet again.”} She walked past Jazz {“Please take care of Paloma.”}
