Year 9, day 75: The increased workload of running an exploration team is starting to catch up to me, so much so that I have neglected my search for many days. Even the times I did squeeze in, I can’t get a complete picture. I found the combination for the Sky Melodica, but hell if … Continue reading Chapter 2.28: 8.21 Years

Year 8, day 352: I received an electro-telepathic message from Dedenne of the Expedition Society early this morning. Mawile had a lucky break and managed find the location and lock combination for another Treasure in her archives. I left Azumarill watching the Bluff and headed to the Water Continent immediately. The Treasure she had located … Continue reading Chapter 2.27: 7.97 Years

Year 8, day 116: Everyone reacted in different ways to the news that Terra and I were in a relationship. A few were surprised. More had been wondering when it’d finally happen already. Darkrai’s immediate reaction was unreadable. I saw Jolteon pass Golem some Poké. They were all pretty happy for us, though. Manaphy in … Continue reading Chapter 2.26: 7.58 Years

Year 8, day 114: My world turned on its head today. I had known the Mysterious Jungle had housed the Grass Coronet for some years now, but it was only a couple days ago within Mawile’s library that I found the combination to its lock. How that wound up on another continent, I have no … Continue reading Chapter 2.25: 7.31 Years

Year 8, day 15: At the start of the year, Wigglytuff announced that the Wigglytuff Guild would be partnering with the Expedition Society on the Water Continent. We were officially intercontinental. We had to buy our own Liner Passes, but the high prices were discounted for guild members in a deal with Lapras. This was … Continue reading Chapter 2.24: 7.04 Years

Year 7, day 216: The world has changed a lot. Treasure Town is far emptier now. Both Kangaskhan Storage and Duskull Bank went out of business; trade with the Mist Continent resulted in the import and installation of public service magical Deposit Boxes that fulfilled both their functions while guaranteeing no one would ever take … Continue reading Chapter 2.23: 6.59 Years

Year 7, day 102: Finally, after almost three months of dungeon delving in the Mist Continent, we got enough gold together to pay Cofagrigus. I really hated having everyone else work while I didn’t, but we all knew that my miserable luck would make the task take far longer. I wasn’t just sitting around, I … Continue reading Chapter 2.22: 6.28 Years

Year 7, day 15: The moment we set foot on the dock on the Mist Continent, we were attacked by a swarm of Zubat. I wish I was kidding. Pokémon on the Mist Continent seem to value community. I mean, Pokémon banding together is how towns started, but Mist Pokémon took it to the next … Continue reading Chapter 2.21: 6.04 Years

Year 7, day 8: As you might imagine, rehabilitating a villain isn’t a walk in the park. At least I had the advantage of said villain being a Pokémon, ultimately a part of nature that got a little confused. As long as I could foster a positive environment and show him compassion, I was certain … Continue reading Chapter 2.20: 6.02 Years

Year 6, day 297: As if the notable temperature drop wasn’t bad enough, there was a veritable cloud of darkness on the horizon since yesterday. The guild put out a special emergency mission to investigate this darkness, which was coming from the peak of Mt. Travail. Team Firma was on it, of course; we had … Continue reading Chapter 2.19: 5.81 Years
