“So this is Hoenn,” Gary said observing Slateport. It was his first time here but Ash and Misty had been here as Pikachus.

“Yup, now where to first?” Ash asked.

Suddenly a hobo got up from a bunch of boxes from where he was hiding and make a cross with his fingers and backed away from Ash muttering evil.

“That doesn’t bode well,” Misty said as the hobo turned tail and ran.

“You can’t see my?” Ash said motioning to his head.

“No you can’t. Lets go around town to see what we can hear,” Gary said walking off.

They kept following Gary until they got to a bad looking place of the town.

“Are you sure this is such a good idea Gary?” Misty asked with her hands only inches away from her mallet.

“Ssshhhh! When I was in Johto I learned that you can hear a lot from these places. Just follow me,” Gary said quietly and knocked on a door.

“Password?” Someone asked through the door.

“If you don’t open the door by the time I count to three, you’ll have a Blastiose who doesn’t like strangers staring you down,” Gary said holding up the Pokeball.

After a few seconds of thought the guy opened the door and they walked. They were surprised to see that many of the people in here where about their age. Some guys in a corner whistled but Ash shut them up by having Pikachu give them a shock. They sat down and almost instantly they heard someone talking about something of importance.

“I tell you I used to be thirty! But I crossed this one lady near Fallarbor Town and she changed me into a teenager again! Why won’t anyone believe me?” a teenager raved in the corner. Ash got up and got some information from him. And after about two days of searching some background was dug up and they decided it was a lead. They were going to Fallarbor Town!

A.N. Short and I probably lied. Unless I somehow write a good way to introduce them May and Max will probably not be here. Other characters of my creation possibly, but already invented characters? No.
