Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ryan chuckles. "That is fortunate then. I already have a Fog Badge. Yes, it's been many years since I earned it, but I did none the less. " he explains. "Well, I guess all there is left for me to do now is get going. I would ask others to come along, but I have a feeling this is something only I can do." Ryan says as he stands up. "Thank for the information, Sub. I don't think I would of found any of that on my own no matter how hard I looked." he adds.

Ryan chuckles. "I was also prepared for that possibility too. That's why last night I went and visited Ambrosia. Let's say I have something that will guarantee that I get things done in one go." Ryan explains with a wink.

"I'm not. I don't even know if I am worthy of having Suicune appear for me. And even if I am, I will have win over the beast, by battle or other means. I am not so foolish to assume that I have this well in hand. It just never hurts to have the proper tools when dealing with a legendary." Ryan says back to Sub. To underestimate such a creature would be true folly.

After taking the time to think about the names, and letting his pokemon rest, Cal thought of the names for his two companions. His Snivy to be known as Baron and his Snorunt to be known as Emma. Cal decided on Baron because he was a fighter in a sense, his meeting with him showed that. However, Emma reminded him of an old friend who was always cheerful and that persons name was Emma. That seemed to be a fitting choice. Soon enough though Baron and Emma were awake and Cal had told them of their new names, although unsure if they understood but they had seemed to anyways. "Well, I guess it's time to head out. We got work to do." Cal returned his pokemon to their pokeballs, head down the stairs to the entry room he came in and walked out the door to get to business.

Ryan was sitting in the main room, his badge case in front of him. He had it open to his Jhoto badges. He had his Fog Badge in his hands and was giving it a good cleaning. Would be bad form to let a Gym Leader see a badge they gave you in poor condition.

Unknown to much of anyone else, Sol had found another report sent to him. He had spent some time looking over it, recalling the one from before, and what had gone on. Seeing this one reawakened the slight hint of concern, but for now, it wasn't something to act on. Seeing a couple parts, though, he couldn't help throwing Sub a bone.

He'd start typing a response on his SNAG, sending out his Xatu in the meanwhile to have her grab someone- and something- before seeing to it that Sub made a quick return.

"Another arduous turn of events, I see, but for what it's worth, I'm sure Allan will do his best for the other Pawniard and Bisharp. I'm still trying to discern the case with that voice you keep hearing too, but I wager you're more knowledgeable of it than I. And this tainting mentioned... I'm beginning to see why you had that nightmare when your efforts began.

But if I may interject while a courier's coming your way with a few things, I like to think I'm not quite so bad with the jinxing issue. I'm certain I'll be eating my words before long now that I've said that. Anyway, whenever the courier arrives, you should see a box with ten Snag Coins. I've a feeling you may have a use for them sooner or later. There may be something else too... you'll just have to wait and see."

By the time he sent it, it likely wouldn't be long before a pair of Pokemon arrived at wherever Sub happened to be now: a Xatu for the sake of teleportation, and a Mew holding a small box in her hands.

"Blame his Xatu..." Cera spoke up, the Mew sounding a bit unamused. She wasn't much for the whole appear out of nowhere thing. "Um, here, I was told to give this to you and that he wanted to throw you a bone... whatever that meant."

The box would be handed over quickly. As expected, the coins were there... as well as a single Casteliacone propped up by them. Xatu just shrugged at the display, ready to send the two back whenever.
