Story 3

I’d resigned myself to being alone in this world forever...
But thanks to you, (your name), it seems Pokémon are coming back!
I really can’t thank you enough.

And as a token of my gratitude, I have a present for you.

Ta-da!
What do you think?

Hohoho! This isn’t the type of thing you can carry around in your bag.
It’s called a “chair.” Humans used to sit on these when they were tired.
Since you’ve been running around all this time in the shape of a human, I thought it would be perfect for you!

I actually used to live with a human myself, a looong, long time ago.
This chair belonged to that human, so it’s got a lot of memories attached to it.
It’s a hair small for me to use, though, so I’m giving it to you. Please take good care of it.

You used Stockpile!

Wha—?! Were you even listening to me?! Chairs are NOT food!

Well, I’ll be... So you can store items inside your body, eh? Seems like a mighty handy skill to have!
Would you mind placing that chair down around here?

Could you put the chair down over here, please?

You sure set that chair down awfully far away. It’d be easier to chat if you put it a bit closer.

Now then, go ahead and sit on the chair.

You know, I think I’ll take a bit of a rest too.

Go ahead and sit on the chair.

Phew... It’s been ages since I’ve talked this much. I’ve gone and tired myself out.

Brrr...
It’s a bit chilly now that the sun’s gone down.

You know, humans made handy tools to keep both heat and cold at bay.

It looks like you’re better at transforming into a human than you are at transforming into Pokémon...
Maybe that means you’ll be just as good as a human at making fancy tools too.

Hohoho!
If you could use that special power of yours to create more nice places for Pokémon to live, that would really warm my heart!

’Scuse me, can I tell you something? I found something weird!

Follow me!

Hohoho! What do you suppose Bulbasaur’s found?
Why not go along with them and see?

This way!

Brrr! It’s so cold...

See? This thing! What do you think it is?

I think it’s...hmmm...a bed for napping!

This is a starry-sky wall.
You can make all kinds of items here as long as you’ve learned the recipe!

Huh? You’re gonna make something here?

Wow, that’s sooo cool! Um...what is it?

Do you think the professor’ll know?

Come on, let’s go show that … you made to the professor!

My word, is that...a …?
Thank you so much—just as I was really starting to shiver! Could you set it down here?

Please bring the … just a touch closer.

Hey, Professor, what IS this thing?

This here is called a ….
It makes the area bright and warm. Brrr!

Huh. But it’s not very warm, is it?

Quite right. Now that I think about it, the fire’s not actually lit. A … needs fire!

But it could be a wee bit challenging for us to start a fire on our own...

I know somebody who can spit out fire! ...I haven’t seen them around here, though.

Oho! You’ve got a friend who can do that, have you?
What sort of place did they live in?

Well, um, you know the plot of tall grass that (your name) made for me? It was like that!

Say, (your name), why don’t you make another plot of tall grass, like the home you made for Bulbasaur?
A Pokémon who can make fire might come by if you do.

Could you please make another plot of tall grass, like the home you made for Bulbasaur?
A Pokémon who can make fire might come by if you do.

Aww, the professor looks so cold.

Huh? You want me to light a …?

Sure thing! Stuff like that’s no problem for me!

Just take me to the … and watch me shine!

Take me to that …!

Oh, a Charmander’s here to help, eh?
Then lead Charmander to the …!

Oh, yay! It’s Charmander! Take them to the …!

How’s that? I lit the fire for you!

Oho! With that, the … is complete! Thank you, Charmander! What a welcome warmth!

Now that it’s gotten dark, why don’t we call it a day and get some rest? Thank you for the help, everyone—truly!

By the by, I noticed you’ve been transformed into a human this whole time.
Could it be that you really miss the human you look like?

Mm-hmm. I understand. A long time ago... A very looong time ago...there was a human I spent all my time with.
Beloved by everyone—humans and Pokémon alike.

I don’t know. But I do have a theory.

You’ve started creating some comfortable habitats for Pokémon, and as a result, they’ve begun coming back here, right?
I’d wager that it’ll work the same for humans.

Humans and Pokémon once lived happily together here.
If this world grows beautiful again, like it was back then... I expect the humans will eventually return here as well. Mark my words.

You know, now that we’ve got so many Pokémon back here again, I think I’ll share some stories about the old days.
Back when I was just a child... ... ...and the humans... ... ... then Pokémon... ... ...was such a help!
…Are you listening?

Yay, I had so much fun playing today!

But I’m a little hungry now! Do you have a … or anything?

Why don’t you try watering an area where there’s a lot of dry tall grass in one place?

If the dry grass can be restored to fresh, green tall grass, it might help refresh my own memory about what it was like when Pokémon lived here long ago.

You swallowed the ….

Yeah, Tangrowth seems really smart, and they’re all tangly and messy like a professor, right?
So let’s show that … to Professor Tangrowth!

If you can use that move, you should be able to smash the rocks and ground around here.

If you talk to a Pokémon and select “Follow me!,” that Pokémon will follow you around!
You can also press (button) while standing next to a Pokémon to get them to follow you!

Try crafting something!

I think this is a bed for napping!

This is a starry-sky wall.
You can make all kinds of items here as long as you’ve learned the recipe!

Try crafting something!

Whoa, that surprised me! I guess it’s not a napping bed after all.
...Huh? There’s something stuck in there.

You got some simple wooden DIY recipes!

Try making something with the recipes you got.
You might be able to make something that can warm up chilly Pokémon!

Oh, you’ve already revived some tall grass?
Let’s wait a bit and see what happens.
