[The Goldenrod Department Store looks as lively as ever today, especially when seen from the ceiling. Dozens of shoppers are walking around, pointing at displays and comparing products.

But our cameramon is looking for one shopper in particular, and no one will stop her from finding him. She flies above everyone else, fluttering between sections and floors, until a familiar voice can finally be heard some distance away.]

Touching that one will do nothing, Onion. It's not a normal stone, even here. This'll be yours, see? Once we're done here...

[Cecil is close enough to be seen by now, and flanked by a Togetic and a Meganium. In his left hand are a Shiny and a Dusk Stones, and in his right is a curious looking gem. He turns around, alerted to his Pokémon's presence by the soft beating of wings.]

Ah, Esuna. I thought you were still looking at the TMs. Come help us with the bags; you can play with the Gear later.

[She won't get to play until later, but she's still the one to turn it off.]

...Considering what was happening when I was taken from my world, a few more years of peace and quiet would be appreciated. However, I'd much rather have them at home.

Fair enough, I'd think.

Though I'd not mind it if my team were present. I've become quite attached to them.

Same here, for the most part. Unfortunately, I wouldn't have much of a chance to miss them if I went back.

...Yeah, that's certainly a shame. It'd be cruel to bring them with you in that case, even if you had the opportunity.

Suppose so. I doubt Rin or Shirou would really have much of a chance or a reason to look after 'em back home. Sucks, but that's just how it is.

What if they remembered this world? Would that not be enough to convince them to take care of them?

Who knows? Probably. I don't think about 'what if' questions, usually.

...And I suppose the chances of it are rather low.
