"Because..." Tricky twiddled her paws in silence. She knew the answer, she'd always known, but that didn't make it any easier to say. "Because not everymon can save themselves from a dungeon. I don't want to let that happen again, so I train to save others." She'd been ravenous just a few...

"The reeeaally dangerous ones are always quiet and empty," Tricky said. "And you can feel something in the air, like it wants you to leave. And if you stay too long, the dungeon starts to attack you itself. It makes trees fall right over where you're standing, vines grab you right off the path...

Get you killed dangerous. All the way. "It depends! On what kind of dungeon you explore. Of course, you never know until you enter it."

"I wish." Tricky made a depressed 'pffffffffff' sound with her mouth. "My pops doesn't like it when I go exploring, because..." The screaming. The hours of hiding in the bush. The mangled body. "Never go into one again." Tricky shivered and shook it off. "...Because he thinks it's...

"What's Arceus?" Tricky silently winced as the words left her mouth. Even she caught how bad that sounded.

Not a single one of those names rang a bel with Tricky. "...Maybe?"

"My village is on a place called the Water Continent, aaall the way across the world," Tricky said. "But no-mon there likes to go to other continents anyway. There's only like 40 of us there, we're not even on the map!" She cocked her head curiously at Dave's comment. "What's a' God squad'?"

"Yeah," Tricky said glumly. "I should do that."

Tricky shook her head. "We don't have it. Or..." this last thought made her more than a little uncomfortable. "It hasn't happened yet. But I guess if it's like Diyem it can't be that bad... Just grumpy."

"It’s a lot like this one, really,” Tricky said. “There’s all the same towns and continents and pokemon and stuff. But’s it’s so different here too.” She thought for a moment. “I wonder what my village is like here.”

"Wow, that's... bleak." Tricky pawed the table uncomfortably. "How do you guys live in a world like that?"

"Sounds boring," Tricky said after Dave had finished. "At least we have battles to pass the time." It was hard to put into words how immensely disappointed she was about the laser vision. A thought came into her head all of the sudden. "What does it look like when Humans battle? Do you use...

Tricky's eyes grew wide as saucers. "Wait." she said. "You're a human??" she almost jumped onto the table, but stopped herself before she could. "We have fairy tales of those back home, but I've never ever seen one! What's it like? Do you guys really have laser eyes and one hundred arms?" She...

"Call me Tricky!" she couldn't help but lighten up again despite herself, all thoughts of that fiendish curry bowl flushed from her mind. "What's yours? I don't think we've ever talked."

"Yeah," Tricky said. She'd come here to eat anyway. "I'll get a normal one."

Tricky didn't hesitate to hop up onto a chair near the one Dave was sitting on. She flopped down in the seat, resting her head upon the table. "The curry bowls in here are really huge," she said after a moment, looking at a group of pokemon a few tables over that had a humongous curry bowl of...

"Mind if we share?" Tricky looked up at Dave innocently from the ground beside the table. "Everywhere else is full."

Tricky tilted her head at that as she watched him hover off. What did he mean by that? Yeah, there were bad 'mon everywhere, but they stuck out like sore thumbs in a crowd. And all you had to do that point was hit them with an attack and hope you were strong enough to not-lose. Oh well. She'd...

Tricky thumped her tail against the ground, looking down in silence, She supposed some boredom every once in a while paid off after all.

"I've never heard of anymon healing things with light," tricky said. "Except for the grass types, because they eat light or something? I wasn't paying attention in dungeon class, but that's boring anyway. Is that how things worked back in your world?" She noticed she was beginning to ramble...
