The group bolted for the lighthouse as soon as they could. Penny gave the quickest explanation for the texts she could manage–low numbers were bad, and they needed to move fast. Nemona took the second part very seriously. Were all of them supposed to have free access via Flying Taxi to wherever they wanted? No. … Continue reading

The Quaking Earth & False Dragon Titans (Penny Saves Paldea, Chapter 19)
Penny tapped the icon to switch to speaker phone. “Hang on, Momo. I’m with Juliana’s friends, and I want to find a better place we can all listen.” “Right. Gotcha, B.B.” No one commented on their respective nicknames, for which Penny was grateful. She motioned the group out of the wind and over to an … Continue reading
The Champions’ Debate (Isle of Change, Chapter 27)
Ingo really thought he would feel more satisfied leaving Cynthia’s house. He’d confirmed the relationship between himself and Cyrus about a week before. Mostly with Aaron’s help. The kid had feigned a sudden interest in Hisuian family records and recruited Lucian to pull resources from the Centra City library. (Until Lucian, Ingo didn’t even know … Continue reading
Emmet & Ingo’s Re-Introduction (Isle of Change, Chapter 26)
Ingo had no idea how long he’d been walking. The sun had fully risen, but the sky was overcast, so it could have left the party anywhere between thirty minutes or three hours ago. He’d tried to go to his usual thinking spot in the hidden grove, only to find it occupied by Cynthia. She’d … Continue reading
Penny Saves Paldea, Chapter 18
“Sylveon, Shadow Ball!” Ortega called. “Yeah, let’s do this!” Arven slapped his face with both hands. “Greedent, Bullet Seed!” Was that his attempt at another ‘battle pose’? Ortega didn’t bother to ask. The match had to be his focus. Greedent spat out four rounds of seeds, landing perfect hits on Altaria every time. A lucky … Continue reading
Cynthia’s Indecision (Isle of Change, Chapter 25)
It took everything in Cynthia’s power to sit still through Cyrus’s “talk.” First he introduced his club under the ridiculous pretense that they were merely a bunch of technology nerds who got together to tinker with their new inventions. Then he talked about his latest creation, a machine designed to dampen emotions for those struggled … Continue reading
Penny Saves Paldea, Chapter 17
Can’t believe I got roped into this, Penny half-thought, half-muttered as she went through the Pokémon she had on hand. I seriously cannot believe I got roped into this. Juliana had walked to the other side of the stage for a moment to ask some questions of Grusha, and she now waved to Penny as … Continue reading
Lear’s Guests (Isle of Change, Chapter 24)
Misty’s musings were soon interrupted when a man in a waiter’s uniform stood beside their table and cleared his throat for their attention. He held a silver tray aloft while a Simipour stood at his side and waved at the guests. Both Pokémon and trainer had remarkably similar hairstyles. “Hey there, um…blue-haired Cilan?” Ash said … Continue reading
Penny Saves Paldea, Chapter 16
Nemona found their plunge down the mountainside absolutely thrilling. She did not say so to her friends. Or to Penny and whoever the guy in the lavender coat was. Most of them were screaming in fear with their eyes squeezed shut. Arven in particular had gone red in face. He yelled less about the fall … Continue reading
Ash’s Friendships (Isle of Change, Chapter 23)
As best Ingo could recall, everyone in Unova assumed that he was a morning person. Given his occupation aboard the Battle Subway, it wasn’t an unfounded guess. He also recalled they were wrong. Even when he had to rise at the crack of dawn for his duties as Sneasler’s warden, it always seemed to take … Continue reading
