It all happened in a flash. One second they were all standing in Odette's dorm room, and the next he went from gaping at the Hoopa that Wes had been hiding in his coat to having Odette snatch his arm before they teleported with a pop into the Maw where hell, apparently, was just about to break...

"I'm glad," said Steven. "And I'd be honored to try a dish from you." Together they got up from the table and headed outside. Aggron leaned down and gently picked Gen up and placed him on his head. "Hang on to my horns, little guy. You'll be back at the dorms in record time."

Steven was nearly finished with his burger, seemingly lost in thought. "I wonder..." he began. "The invitation here said something about mythical pokemon appearing during this festival. Do you think one of them might be able to help you get your human form back?" "I'm not as well read about...

"Huh," said Aggron, "That's really cool. I bet you'd make a great translator." He thought a moment longer, staring down at his empty plate. (His burger was gone in two bites) "You said something about walking being hard in your new body, right? Want a ride to wherever you're going after this?"

"Your family sounds lovely, Gen," Steven said. A brief wistful look crossed his face but it was gone again just as quickly. "And you may not be from Unova, but I think you'd enjoy a visit there someday. Your brother, too, since that's where Pokestar Studios is headquartered." Aggron, who had...

Steven listened intently to Gen's story. To think, one day he woke up and his entire life, his entire reality had changed. The fact that there even was an entire dimension with only pokemon and no humans at all was incredible to hear. And now Gen was in a different reality, back with humans...

Steven blinked. Well, that certainly wasn't his first guess as to what Gen's story was going to be. Then again, he hadn't planned on meeting an alternate version of Wallace either. As strange as anything might seem, he knew reality sometimes was even stranger. And if Gen told him as much...

Steven leaned back in his seat, a contemplative look on his face. "You know, there was a time I was less likely to believe things I didn't think could be proved. My father's company has every imaginable technology at their disposal. Surely if there was a mystery out there in the world, we...

"Gen, it's a pleasure to meet you. And if you don't mind, I think I'll order a hamburger, too. It's been a while since I've had one." The waiter came by and Steven put in his order along with a veggie burger for Aggron. With the food taken care of, Steven sat forward in the booth seat and...

As if meeting a talking Oshawott wasn't enough surprise for one afternoon, Steven was met with another one as they stepped inside the restaurant. The entire place was decked out with enough medieval trappings that he thought he must have stepped through another one of those hoop portals. But...

Whatever Steven was expecting as a response from the Oshawott, it certainly wasn't a perfectly clear and understandable sentence. "Wait, did you just...? You can talk! I've never met a pokemon who could talk before, at least not out loud. Fascinating!" Aggron, just as shocked as his...

The hike back to the main area of the island was uneventful, but by the time Steven and Aggron were back on flat ground, the island noontime sun was more noticeable without a cool mountain breeze. "Perhaps we should go somewhere a bit shadier for lunch," Steven suggested as they walked into the...
