There was also a young girl in almost as much distress. "Rayquaza, you go ahead!" Ash instructed. She put her foot on thin air next to him, the Psychic-type held her shoe in place, and she hoisted herself up to sit on his back. Whitney made a clicking sound with her tongue, and Rapidash cantered up beside her. "And it sounded like it was in distress." " I concur," Lokoko declared, loping up behind them from where she'd been talking with Rapidash. " I think that was a Piplup," Pikachu said. There was a faint sound, then, and Ash looked up. "She's got a really cool way of evolving!" "Yeah, Pidgey is a great Pokémon," Ash said. "I've heard something about a Pidgey, though?" "I know you've got other Pokémon I'd like to see, but I'm willing to wait," she told Ash. " That is as inaccurate as it is possible to be," the Zorua declared. "I know you're a grumbly grumpy miseryguts, but I bet you're sweet deep down!" "And I haven't forgotten you, either," Whitney added. "I'd ask if she's learned Charm yet, but it'd be redundant."Īten made a humpf sound, possibly just on general principle. "She is still as adorable as when I first heard about her!" the Gym Leader added. Rayquaza nodded, lazily – floating in mid-air and propelled along by Whitney's hand. "And don't forget, Rayquaza, let me know if I should stop! I know the difference between being happy and being shy with all my Pokémon, but sometimes for a new Pokémon I can get it wrong at first so it's good to check." "And I just had to bring Miltank, because she's my starter, and I couldn't bear to be parted from Chatot… but apart from that I left the rest to the substitute gym leaders to give them more options." "Well, I did want to bring just about everyone," Whitney told him, half her focus on Tiny Shiny Rayquaza who she was gently petting as they walked. "I know you had a Deerling, a Miltank, and a Nidorina as well as Rapidash," Ash said. "Oh, that's helpful! So yeah, we are going in the right direction – in which case, let's go!" It moved when Ash turned which way he was looking, and he brightened. "I guess it's that way?"Ī small arrow appeared on Ibid's map. "It's no magical rainbow friendship beam, but it's got at least two of those words."Īsh checked the map again, and pointed. " That does sound like it would be an appropriate use of magic," Rapidash nodded, considering. "It'll be like you're casting a spell to let people and Pokémon communicate freely." "And then you'll be able to translate Pokémon for their trainers," Whitney agreed. "Instead, the idea is that Lokoko's going to teach you Hypnosis." "We are doing that, but that's not the plan," Ash replied. "Or, yes, if the plan was to go to Sandgem Town." " Nope," the Unique Horn Pokémon said, tapping a hoof on the ground. "I am not sure if you were awake or not."
" Did you overhear the plan?" Lokoko asked. She sent out her Galarapidash, who struck a pose and swished his mane. "And since I'm sure the map's good, it can't be a long way." "If it is a long way when it's that small on the map, then the map's not very good," Whitney agreed. It's only about, uh, half a centimetre on this map, but hopefully that doesn't mean very far in the real world." "The good news is, we're not too far from Sandgem Town," Ash announced. "He's kind of fun, a bit boring sometimes though." "Oh, Rowan, I remember him," Whitney said, thinking, as King Dragonite let go and returned into his Safari Ball. "Let's see, uh… we're not far from Twinleaf Town, and Professor Oak said something about meeting up with Professor Rowan… where does he live, again?" He took out Ibid, who transformed into a map of Sinnoh. "I guess you've made a friend just from that."
"I would love one!" Whitney agreed, and promptly got swept up by Dragonite for a nice proper hug.Īsh chuckled. " It's my pleasure!" King Dragonite told her, which was something he could do now that Lokoko was out of her Pokéball. "Thank you so much for the lift!" Whitney said, once they'd arrived in Sinnoh.
