"They are nice," Rocky said with a faint smile. "Marshtomp misses them a lot." Which meant in a weird way, Rocky missed them too, even though he'd never met them. And never would. His bag was shifting impatiently and making faint grunting noises. They definitely needed to get back to Destiny...

Rocky grinned broadly when the swinub settled itself down in the bag, and very slowly gathered it up off the ground, like he was afraid of jostling the pokémon and sending it running off again. He didn't want to celebrate too soon and lose the pokémon at the last second. He had to chuckle at...

"Oh, really? That's kind of like how Marshtomp got his first pokémon, then." Rocky smiled, too. "That's a great story. And it seems like you made a good choice, too!" Although as a human, Koa would probably not be anything much at all like a superhero. Still, though. Rocky set his bag down on...

@Experidenzel Thanks for the review! I think this is excellent for your first time reviewing something. It's always nice to hear what people pick up on in the story. I'm glad you liked the bit with the waterfall; it was definitely fun to write. We'll certainly learn more about what happened to...

"I think it does!" Rocky said, giggling. The swinub was cute! He tossed another berry down, a little closer to himself this time, and said, "You're pretty friendly, aren't you? You wanna come visit Destiny Village with me? I've got a friend who'd love to meet you. You can ride in my bag, and...

Rocky froze a second when he saw the swinub, then nodded to Echo to let the crobat know he realized where they were. He watched the pokémon going about their business for a couple seconds. If he had a heart, it would probably be beating faster now. He hadn't really thought much about being a...

"That's good if they're nice," Rocky said. "Marshtomp's world might just be the weird one! Although... humans hurt legends where Marshtomp's from, too. I guess they just deal with it differently. But you're right! When you get stronger, that means you have to help more people, not hurt them...

Rocky bounded along below Echo, going at top speed. He figured the crobat would tell him when he needed to be quiet--until then, it felt good to run! "Well," he said distractedly, "He was pretty much the same, except human-shaped, I guess! He was a trainer, too. Or kind of still is, well, he...

(( omg, swinub was 100% what I was hoping for! I love that it's one of the ones you picked. )) Rocky smirked. "Marshtomp doesn't like being little, and he's tired of being around pokémon that are bigger than him all the time." It wasn't the real reason... but it also wasn't a lie, either. It...

Rocky laughed. He tried to imagine a kid biting a baby dinosaur, even only kind of--Rascal must have been surprised! That sounded like the kind of thing Marshtomp would do. "That was brave! Probably it wasn't a very good idea, but I can see why Rascal was impressed. Koa's so lucky, though...

Rocky listened to Echo talk about his teammates, flames warming back to a gentle glow. It was actually kind of too bad that Marshtomp wasn't here. He loved hearing about trainers and their teams. And he'd be nice to Echo. Rocky's eyes gleamed brighter the longer Echo went on, but he waited...

Rocky grinned. It was so great that Echo liked his names! Rocky should probably be thinking of one for himself, too. The God Squad all had aliases, didn't they? What kind of weapon would he be? "Well, the person I'm based on kinda sorta used to be human! It's complicated," he said cheerfully...

Rocky was surprised when Echo dropped down onto his head, but he was quick to tamp down his flames so Echo didn't get burned. "Superbat is good," Rocky said. "But I don't know. Maybe something more special for you? Since you like honey... What about something like Sweet Tooth! Because you've got...

Hrrrk, I really don't want to keep leaving people to review into the void. It's been way too long since I've done replies! So I'm going to start going through them now, a couple at a time, most recent first. I'm sorry I can take an unreasonably long time to reply to reviews--I always do read...

"Yes! Yes, you totally should," Rocky said, bouncing more energetically. "It's really important! You can't be a proper superhero without a cool alias. Like Sound Hound or something." Unlike Marshtomp, Rocky was great at naming things. "And you need a name, too, if you're going to be his sidekick!"

"That would be so cool!" Rocky had forgotten all about looking for a pokémon. "But then, if he could fly--you could fly together! Like a hero and his sidekick. And go out and fight crime!" Rocky bounced a little with excitement. Technically everybody on the team already fought crime together...

"Huh. Galactic." Rocky tipped his head again. After a second he said, "Nope! Never heard of them. Maybe they don't exist in Marshtomp's world." Rocky didn't realize Echo was talking about Koa when he was a human. "I know!" he said, eyes glowing bright. "He's really strong, and really cool! And...

"I think it's pretty much like yours!" Rocky said cheerfully. "There's a Sinnoh in Marshtomp's world, too, but he doesn't know too much about it. Only that it's cold there a lot! But there's definitely trainers and the pokémon league and battling and everything. Starr's world is pretty close to...

Happy birthday! Hope you've been having a great day.

Rocky picked at the strap of his bag and kept his eyes out on the trees. "Marshtomp hasn't felt very good ever since we went to the moon. But he likes pokémon a lot, so I thought I'd see if I could get one to come along with me to cheer him up. I brought a lot of berries, so I hope we can find...
