Welcome to Gaia! ::

Cody awoke in an unfamiliar setting. "Two days in a row," he said quietly to himself. "This is getting out of hand." He felt around, quickly realizing he was in his bed in the dorm he had chosen early in the morning before and sighed, relieved. It could be worse, right? He heard faint snores; most likely Axew and Poochy in their respective spots, curled up, dreaming whatever it is pokemon dream about. "Goodnight, guys," he whispered to his partners before laying his head back down on the pillow and closing his eyes. It wasn't long before he was out cold once more.

Allen sat up, no idea when or how he made it to bed. No matter... He quickly got dressed and stepped out into the main room. Perhaps he would go out training today. Would it be logical to invite others? Allen guessed he would wait around to see if others showed up. He did, however, notice there was someone hanging around in the room. "Hello." He spoke up, like last time, if only to be pleasant. And took a seat on a different couch.

Allen thinks back, he does remember the man appearing on the beach, but it wasn't anything special. "I don't believe so. I'm Allen."

"Nice to meet you too." Allen decided it would probably be the best to ask, "If you don't mind, what's the pain?" He didn't want to pry on matters not his own, but what else would the conversation go on? Man, he was not at all good at this.

"What, like when some certain Politoad or Ninetails appear?" Thinking back to facing a Ninetails that made the sun shine brighter and hotter without using Sunny Day, he wasn't sure at all what to think of it at the time. "Wait, what? A Tower?" Allen's forehead scrunches up, he's obviously confused.

Allen thinks for a while, the power to change an entire region's weather would be quite the feat, but it seems rather impossible, since weather was pretty erratic and constantly changing, even those Pokemons' abilities couldn't keep the weather change for long... Even if a Pokemon could, what made him even think it would be possible with human technology?? Crap, now he's done it, this guy's obviously off his rocker, he doesn't care what anyone says. However that Groudon bit caught his attention, "Sorry to keep asking questions, but... What is Groudon?"

Allen's head remained scrunched forward, "Indeed..." So this guy was from Team Magma. He heard of them immediately when he arrived in Hoenn, just a very little gossip about a bunch of people in red outfits bullying people lead by some Maxie... Not that Team Aqua was much above that as he'd learned. Didn't bother him none though. What did bother him was that Archie was looking for this kind of super powered myth. What would happen when he couldn't find what he wanted? He let it fall with that. "Well, regardless, I do think it's pointless." A funny thought crossed his mind, "Or maybe a machine being built with enough power to wipe out an entire region of it's life?" He chuckled at it rolling his eyes, finding himself more relaxed than before.

Indeed a nutter. "So I suppose that why you got brought in." He thought for a minute, "I don't suppose you'd know why he's gotten so many, seemingly random, people to join, do you? I mean, His grunts would probably be more useful than a few of us. I mean, you seem like you know more than most of us do anyway." He really shouldn't be saying things like that, he's barely even met a bunch of them, but it really seemed true.
