[nospaces] [attr="class","arties"] “Trust me when I say…doesn’t matter how near or far you are, they’re still gonna worry.” This is no attempt to patronize, goad, or guilt. It’s an honest admission of one who has served as a parent to one who has not. “You could show up on their doorstep with Raikou, Zacian, and Rayquaza all acting like your best friends and they’d still worry about you. You’ll always be their…”[break][break] He looks at the figure of Zacian again, carved by hands that are no real. Reaching out and touching it, he recalls the words of a song.[break][break] A man can build his life on dreams,[break] But it’s prudent to recall:[break] A man with moonlight in his hands[break] Holds nothing there at all.[break][break] “…anyway.” He fights to keep his voice from growing emotional. They’re here on business. It won’t do either of them to dwell on what they have given up to reach this moment, where they have to test everything they have against one another.

They’re coming for every city in Hoenn. You’re a great duelist, but like we saw in these same caves…you gotta learn how to fight on an open battlefield. So, Josh.”[break][break] Navy picks up a pokeball, steadies himself, looks to that carved figurine and all the love it represents, and tosses out his first Pokemon.[break][break] “Show me you’ve got what it takes to defend the people you care about.”[break][break] Grugni, his Runerigus, rises from the pokeball and roars. It is a far slower beast than whatever Josh will toss out to face him.
