video - violet city;

[prayreturn]

[ The camera has a few Zigzagoon in the background from the swarm, Minfilia looking a bit tired as her female Meowstic tries to fight them. She holds up a badge - the Zephyr Badge! There's a warm smile on her face, tired but proud. ]

It was quite the interesting experience fighting a Gym Leader - I hope that the others end up as enlightening. I shall be setting out to the next city as soon as I can. But I've... a small concern.

[ The camera pans to show quite the crew. Her entire team are out and relaxing. Note the multiple cat-like Pokemon... ] Will they truly be okay in the box? I wish not to choose favorites, but I do know that some of them will do better against the next gym then others.

...Perhaps I shall need to spoil them when we get to Azalea Town.

Where I come from, there are less humanoid Spoken - similar to Pokemon, in many ways. However, they are treated like mindless beasts. Tortured. Run out of their homes. Forced to do horrible things in their fear.

...I still find it hard to believe how unified this land is.

[... The look on Doppio's face may indicate he wasn't expecting the conversation to get so real so quickly.]

Yeah, um... [He gulps.] This place is pretty peaceful, for the most part. I'm sorry to hear about... that?

[prayreturn]

[ There's a quiet pause. ] Is your land not like that?

[epitaffio]

Like what, this place?... Or yours?

[If this world is the point of comparison, the answer is easy. If not... he'll have to think about it a bit.]
