“Ugh. I believe you.”

Looking for three more Slowpoke was going to be a fucking nightmare, however fact of the matter was that there were more bugs to be had. After he’d checked the tally that was keeping track of how many Bug-types he’d caught, he was still short two.

Shit.

And then there was another award he was trying to chase after, but who knew it was going to be an equally-long nightmare looking for a Tangela?! Geez!

“Who knew looking for Slowpoke was going to be an epic journey in and on itself.”

"you should just visit kanto and get it over with."

wait...

"jk. don't. shit's still dangerous."

but maybe someday matias will take lars over to kanto and show him his home. what remains of it, anyways.

but for now, slowpokes await them.

He cackled.

“Look, I don’t know when this shit with Kanto’s going to end, but I’d take that offer. Hate being stuck in Hoenn for such a long time.”

Well that was saying something because he’d only been out of the region exactly once before… and that was a long time ago. Circumstances forced him to come back home, however…

And right then and there before he could say anything else, a very cute (but equally-angry) Ribombee came flying towards them, screeching at the top of its tiny little voice.

“The hell did I do to you?” he blinked, and right before the Ribombee could drop a Stun Spore, a burst of Psychic energy came flying out of nowhere, before striking the minuscule Pokémon upside the head and knocking it out.

A Pokéball was then thrown at it afterward.

"if you're looking for a vacation, anywhere's better than kanto at the moment."

even hoenn, for all its quirks.

"i haven't been anywhere else either."

which is a sad realization. he and had talked about going on a trip but work has gotten the better of both of them. maybe someday they'll find time to.

“Really fucking want to just use up all of my accumulated leaves and fuck off somewhere. Maybe visit relatives back at Alto Mare in Johto if I could.”

But then, leaving the region was practically tantamount to suicide, especially now that he (they?) were part of that blasted group who were at the beck and call of the—

Ahem.

The sight of a literal walking clump of vines made him blink so fast he’d already whipped out a Pokéball and was ready to chuck it at the Tangela, but the Grass-type was faster and sent an Ancient Power attack flying!

A sudden shimmering ‘barrier’ appeared mere moments before the Rock-type attack collided with Lars (and he’d had to conjure up a last-minute barrier of ice to defend himself); the Metagross had used Telekinesis to stop the attack and redirect it back in the offending Grass-type’s direction!

“Thanks for the save,” he said to the hulking silver beast as a rainbow burst of Psychic energy after the ricocheting attack, catching the Tangela by surprise—and the empty Pokéball is thrown at the Grass-type.

"so why don't you?"

matias and have talked about taking a vacation for a while now. they've yet to gone and a part of him wonders if they'll ever find time to go. but lars — a man with no other commitments than to his work — surely he'd be able to go?

“See, therein lies the problem: what if they look for everyone who’s with that group for something they only want avatars to poke at?”

Surely the other would understand what he was implying.

“Doesn’t help that my… dad’s putzing around somewhere doing who the hell knows what…” he added with a grumble. Thankfully, the Tangela was now his—and that was another milestone down.

Picking up the occupied Pokéball, he’d very nearly missed the big-ass clam-like Pokémon had he not noticed that there were a pair of soulless eyes staring at him from the ground.

“It’s fucked up, if you ask me—having to be at their beck and call if anything apocalyptic comes crashing around.”

matias understands. still, he would've taken the risk, but he doesn't fault lars for not doing so.

"how is ? it's been a while since i've last seen him."

too long, perhaps.

gogoat's presence is rewarded with a sweet berry and a pokeball that gently taps against its head. boop!

At the mention of the old man’s name, a scowl crossed his face for a few moments.

“Really?” he began, completely and totally unimpressed. “Of all the things—” he trailed off, before remembering something.

“…I have no idea, to be honest. I haven’t even paid him a visit lately.”

Why should I, though? he continued to himself in the back of his mind, watching as a clueless little Hoppip flew right by him, zipping towards another part of the forest.

“…but word on the ground is that he’s not on the Council anymore. Dunno how true that is.”

At least, he kept his ears open for any kind of gossip… that much was certain.

"probably true. it's likely why i haven't seen him around as much."

which is a shame, really. matias quite enjoys the ex-councilman and his company, especially when drinking. no one better than bill (mostly because he pays).

like the hoppip, the centiskorch also passes by, minding its own business.

"it's okay. you can take his place and come for a few drinks with me."
