[The first thing that was wrong was that she woke up in a strange place. And trying to teleport away did nothing. Which was probably why she was shuffled out of the door with a backpack by the strange women who kept calling herself mom. It didn't take Ai long to realize that something was very wrong.]

[So, locating a tree she climbed up and started to investigate her bag. After a while finding the Pokegear and poking around at the maps for a bit. Well wherever she was, it wasn't Japan, or her world of twilight. And unless the Lord of Hell had decided to redecorate, this wasn't Hell. So she was trapped somewhere else then. ...alive for some reason and without any of her powers.]

[An accidental one as she's just poking around on the device. So have a small girl with black hair and red eyes in a tree, looking around and very confused. Before noticing that it seems to be recording and quickly trying to turn it off. It may take her a few moments but she eventually gets it.]

[Well she's managed to figure out that yes you can talk to people on this thing. So...texting is better]

Where am I? And how do I get home?

I have duties to attend to. I am not allowed to miss them.

[Action: New Bark Town]

[You can find Ai slowly getting out of a tree. Looking warily about as if she expects to be attacked at any moment. Hey, with her luck you never know]

Really? Are there any Yōkai here?

I don't know what those are, but it's possible.

They're spirits.

Is this place large?

Spirits like ghosts? Because there are ghost pokemon, yeah.

There are two regions here, and both are pretty big. I've only been to about half of one, but that's more to do with me not going anywhere for five months or so.

No. Not pokemon. Real spirits.

Are you supposed to travel?

Well if there are, I haven't seen any. Maybe in Lavender Town? That's in Kanto, and people say it's kind of spooky.

If you want to see the world, yeah. There's a lot of interesting things, here.

I'll look there then.

Is walking the only way to travel?

If you have a pokemon big enough, you can ride that. Eventually you should be able to surf on large water pokemon or fly on large flying or dragon pokemon, but you'll need to battle the gyms for that.

You can fly on them?

How do you do that?

Gyms?

They have to be big enough to carry you, but even the ones that start out small can grow, and they have to be able to learn the move Fly.

Gyms are places that test your strength and make sure you're worthy or something. You can get Fly from defeating an elite trainer in a place called Cianwood City, and Surf from Olivine City, but you have to defeat two other gym leaders in order to use them if you're a trainer. You can just borrow the moves from someone else, if you're a breeder. Which one are you?

So you have to defeat three gym leaders for each one? How many gyms are there?

Trainer.

Sorry, I meant one other leader for each, so it's just two gyms per move. I think there are sixteen badges in all, which would mean eight gyms in each region.

Yeah, then it means you'll have to get the badges if you want to travel easier.

I'll have to do that then.

Is fighting hard?

Every pokemon is different, but they can all get stronger through training. You can look up what attacks they can use on the pokedex function, which should help build battle strategies.

I only have one right now.

Everyone does. But you can catch more with the empty pokeballs you have in your bag. What kind of pokemon did you start out with? The pokegear should tell you if you point it at it.

[A moment later]

It's an Absol

I know someone with an Absol. They're good, strong pokemon, and they seem really loyal.

[The pokedex entry seemed rather unfair, really.]

Dark types are weak against bug and fighting types, but I don't think you should have any other problems.

I will remember that. Thank you.

Are there other Pokemon people fear like Absols? The entry was rather cruel sounding.

It is. I don't think you should believe everything about the pokedex entries, since all pokemon are individuals, but they make for alright general guidelines.

I don't know much about feared pokemon, but I would guess that ghost pokemon make a lot of people uncomfortable. They've been known to scare people for fun. I think one of them people really don't like is one called Shedinja, but that's more to do with something that happened before I got here. I don't know the details. Their entry is pretty bad, too, though.

Something happened here with ghosts?

Do you know what happened?

Not really. Like I said, it happened before I came here, and people aren't too keen on talking about it. There's a holiday called Halloween next month, though, and someone said strange things usually happen around then.

Odd

[A moment later.]

Thank you for the information.

What is your name?

You tend to get used to odd things here...

I'm Hiccup. What about you?

My name is Ai
