"You have," Owen called, waving the Sneasel over. "What kind of food would you like? We've got a lot of supplies here to last us a whole ten days if we needed! Though we probably won't need all that much..."

"That could work," Owen agreed, poking at one of the other gummis for a temperature check. This one was still scalding, so, bare-handed, he placed it back on the cooling plate. "These need a little more time," he reported. "Y'know, I wonder what it would taste like if we put meat or something in...

"My name is Charizard Diyem," the very definitely a Charizard said, gesturing behind him. "And while you're late, I was intending to gather several Pokemon to save a world. the Charmander that had been in trouble is... saved for now, but the world is not. If you are interested in joining that...

<><><> Diyem had a nice little system in place. To his left was his overview of the world, which he occasionally spent time idling over to search for distortions, futile as it may have been. And on his right was a little book titled Perish Book, which had been recommended by Owen some time ago...

"That's probably the point," Owen said, inspecting the rest of the casings that were cooling. "Hmm... Yep! It looks like these are about ready! If anybody wants to try the Pecha one, that's the first one I made. I'm waiting on the Cheri..." As more were prepared and passed out, Owen settled...

"No honey here," Owen replied, "but it looks like the first gummis are ready!" He pulled out the first few with a pair of sticks, placing it on a plate to cool. "Anybody have ice moves or anything that can speed up the cooling? Instructions say it's fine to do that."

I do not know. If--if you ever see something like that again, be very cautious. I don't know what that was, but... it was powerful enough to disrupt my sight of you, the same way that Magikarp did when Owen was defeated. Be very careful. Whatever that presence was, it was gone, now. Its voice...

The dummy's head spontaneously exploded, covering Starr in warm, cooked rice. Pffffbff... huhu... ahaha... AHAHAHA . . . The dummy fell over, revealing that it had been stuffed full of rice for some reason. . . . tarr. Starr. Are you there? Starr? I--there you are. Starr, what happened? I...

Her claws smashed devastatingly through open air, knocking the pebble into the wall where it was assuredly defeated. Uhuhu... The dummy was now mere inches behind Starr in a vaguely looming posture, but did not move otherwise.

No reply. Whoever it was, they were probably laughing in some hidden alcove of the dojo. Perhaps they were still watching. How long had they been there? No telling. The angry dummy slid forward three inches by an unseen force. At the same time, a small pebble fell to the right side of Starr...

The fallen dummy did not reply, as it was inanimate. The dummy that Starr had been sparring against prior, however, now had angry eyebrows drawn on with black ink.

"Mm!" Owen perked up, nodding. "Yeah. I can't wait to find out about--you know, everything! I guess I'm looking forward to a lot of it, too, in a way. And Diyem isn't telling me anything, either, so I bet he just wants me to find out on my own..." Or he just didn't think it was worth going over...

During Starr's training, after a particularly bungled slash, one of the other dummies in the corner of the room fell over. There wasn't any wind in the dojo, and it wasn't like anybody else was nearby, right? Maybe it was just off-balance.

"Do be careful," Truffle said. "That body of yours... Does it require sleep? It very well may. If you feel yourself growing in need of rest, I would recommend going to the private quarters." Truffle looked like he wanted to say more, but he ultimately decided against it. "In any case, take care."

"Indeed, the world is still standing," Truffle said. "All thanks to the help of a human and his partner saving the world from something Arceus could not: Dark Matter. It was not many years ago that the world had nearly been thrown into the sun thanks to Dark Matter's influence... But Arceus had...

Truffle was silent for a short while. "Well," he said gently, "I am sorry you went through so much. But... I imagine you may not necessarily be the only one to feel that way. My leader... had similar failures, and had only been saved by the help of another. Had it not been for them... I imagine...

"Hrmm..." Truffle didn't seem satisfied with the answer. "I'd recommend against pushing yourself down so much, my friend. After all... this is a chance for you to save another world, regardless of your past! I know not of what happened... but failure on a task does not mean failure as a person...

A bit delayed, but here's my proper response to your review, Espy! I'm very glad to hear this! Though convoluted is definitely something hard to avoid, I'm glad it at least is impressive enough to accept and move forward with. Ha, for some reason this isn't a common thought by the end of Act...

"Now, that's no way to talk about yourself," Truffle said, shaking his head. "I consider you to be well worth the effort. Tell me--do you have a name?"

"I see..." Truffle hummed, listening to every word intently. "If that's the case, that would be something very worrisome... I will be sure to inform Maple about this. By now I believe she is evaluating the other giant Pokemon that had been rampaging around the world. They had all been subdued...
