[Question: What is worse than awakening deep within an unknown cave with no idea how you got there, again?

Answer: Awakening deep within an unknown cave with no Pokémon, no supplies, no Pokégear and no way to obtain any of those, of course.

In other words, Cecil would greatly appreciate some company and help right now. Preferably before those Zubats manage to eat him.]

Yeah. It seems useful in battle though. It knows Cut to.

[Which is weird, since it's an HM move. Maybe it has another trainer and is just lost.

We should probably get out of here.

[paladinlost]

...Well. Of course a sword would know Cut.

[Even if that breaks the game rules.]

Indeed. Can you recognize this cave? I can only tell it's not the Ice Path.

[seasaltkeys]

It's just a cave as far as I can tell. It's dark and there's zubat everywhere. That's pretty much any cave in Johto.

[At least they have Flash now.]

[paladinlost]

Or Kanto. How many of those can there possibly be?

[seasaltkeys]

I don't know Kanto very well, but...it could be the Dark Cave?

I mean, it fits...

[paladinlost]

That's a possibility. If we could learn the level of the local Zubats, we'd know for certain.

[seasaltkeys]

I haven't been looking real close. They go down quick though.

[paladinlost]

Considering your team, that does not surprise me at all. Have they kept their levels, too?

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah. I got real lucky with that.

[paladinlost]

...Goodness, this world is more generous with visitors than current residents.

[seasaltkeys]

I'll probably get hit next time or something.

[paladinlost]

Don't say that, or you'll make it happen.

[seasaltkeys]

I dunno....I've been feeling pretty lucky.

[paladinlost]

...That's good to hear. For any reason in particular?

[seasaltkeys]

Well, I'm back here again. That's something.

[paladinlost]

Should I worry that your definition of lucky appears to involve risking death by Zubat?

[seasaltkeys]

No. If I had my way I'd be back in Olivine City.

But it's still Johto...or Kanto.

[paladinlost]

Probably one of the two, yes. We've not yet had the opportunity to visit other regions.

[seasaltkeys]

Still?

[paladinlost]

Still, unless you count a terrifying castle that none of us had ever seen before.

[seasaltkeys]

What? What happened?

[paladinlost]

Many of us woke up one morning in an abandoned castle, with all of our Pokémon missing. Monsters were involved, and mysterious doors too.

[seasaltkeys]

That...sounds like a lot of fun.

[paladinlost]

Especially when angry messages and warnings started appearing on the walls, yes.

[seasaltkeys]

You know...I'm not sorry I missed that.
