Welcome to Gaia! ::

As the lightning bolt hit the Zapdos Heart it instantly light up and begin to give off a bright serene glow as it crackled with energy, it was beautiful to look at but at the same time you could feel its destructive power, even a human could. The Pikachu and single Raichu however jumped up to their feet as the gem was recharged and began to rush towards it, wanting to jump on it. "Whoa! See what I told you? Our job is done so..."

Sub grinned as they disappeared, away from Viridian Forest and back at the headquarters with the full charged Zapdos Heart. "Phew, that was certainly interesting to say the least, never did I know there were that many Pikachu out in those woods." Sub commented.

"Hey Lykas?"

"What's up?"

Odd and his boyfriend were in the kitchen, not doing much of anything. "Can I borrow Mykel for a while? I want to go to Unova and do some training."

Lykas looked at Odd like he was crazy. "I should keep Mykel with me, really, but I suppose you can keep him with you in case you need a quick ride back. I use Claydol if an important mission comes up." The teen responded with a playful smile. "Just take care of him. He was one of my first Pokemon, after all."

Odd nodded as the younger boy released the Kirlia from his Pokeball. "Can you Teleport me to Striaton City? I want to train my Pokemon and starting at the first gym in the region seems like the best place, even if I don't actually challenge the gym." He told the Kirlia, who nodded, understanding why Lykas had allowed Odd to borrow him, just from the free-floating thoughts in the room.

Odd Teleported out just as Hawk entered and missed the boy's question but Lykas turned to look at him when he spoke. "foods with high Carbohydrate content usually help the process of gaining weight. Pastas, crackers, and breads are good choices. But you need protein to aid muscle growth and exercise to prevent the carbs from turning into fat." He offered. "Foods with high starch and Sugar content tend to create fat easily as well but they're harder to make muscle off of."

"Yeah..." Dan returned the sleeping Diva and Shark for rest. Goliath followed his trainer into the generator room, careful not to trip with the gem.

Sub continued onward until they made it back to the generator room, opening the sliding metal doors via the keypad just like last time, and stepped inside with his Krookodile behind him. Once again he pressed some more buttons to open up the glass chamber housing the Electric Gem as it stood on its steel supports, and again, Auguste picked up the gem and carried it out of the way. "Now you, Goliath." Sub said to the Rhydon.

Once the Zapdos Heart was in place Sub immediately pressed the appropriate buttons to lower the glass chamber once again, causing the Zapdos Heart to float up and begin to power the headquarters once again. "Thanks for your help Dan, Goliath." Sub said to the pair. "You can toss that Electric Gem outside, Auguste, it's probably dead by now, maybe Poe will like to munch on it." Sub said as his Krookodile then proceeded to walk out of the room.
