Dirk blocked out the glaring sun with his hand as he stepped off the boat, slugging his dufflebag over his shoulder. He checked his watch for the time. He had slept straight for eight hours, and groaned as he adjusted his neck. He felt something brush against his leg. He looked down and saw Fang staring impatiently up at him. [color=SlateBlue]"Don't give me that stink-eye,"[/color] he chuckled. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a fan of Pokedollars. He handed 500 to the captain, and waved him goodbye. 
	Dirk reached into his dufflebag and pulled out the map on his Pokedex. It didn't seem like the town was too far from here, and the festival wasn't until 5:00 pm, plenty of time to get down there and find Kukui's lab. He decided to check the Pokemon Center, first. If this place was like Unova, there'd be a Pokemart inside, and he could use some items for the road.

Dirk walked through the automated doors of the Pokemon Center, Fang trotting beside him. There were a few trainers and pokemon idling around. Dirk saw the Mart was smaller than the ones in Unova. In Unova, Pokemarts were small shops attached to Pokemon Centers; Here, they were just plain counters. He did see plenty of potions and heals behind the clerks, which was all he really needed. 

[color=SlateBlue]"Excuse me, how much for... 10 potions, and... What's the most common condition caused by wild pokemon around here?"[/color] He asked. The clerk put his hand to his chin, and shrugged. [color=SkyBlue]"I'd say Poison. Plenty of Spinaraks around here. But then again Drowzee's aren't that rare. If you're not careful they'll hypnotize you."[/color]

[color=SlateBlue]"So... How about 3 antidotes, and 3 awakenings?"[/color]

The cashier chuckled, [color=SkyBlue]"I think you'd need more than just three antidotes. If you're heading to Iki village like the other people for the festival tonight, there are more Spinaraks that way. You'd need about ten."[/color]

[color=SlateBlue]"Ten? I can't afford that much. What if I bought 3 Full Heals?"[/color]

[color=SkyBlue]"Ooh. Those are a bit limited around here. You'd need to take the Island Challenge for those."[/color]

[color=SlateBlue]"Yknow, I'll just buy 3 Antidotes. It shouldn't be too dangerous..."[/color]

Fang sat impatiently as Dirk droned on with the clerk, bored out of his mind. He got up and wandered off around the Pokemon Center while Dirk continued arguing with the clerk over... Potions now, he thought? Even the rest of the Center was too boring. Everybody was just sitting around, with their pokemon. Fang suddenly felt a pang of irritation as he felt sound at a very high frequency hit his ears. He saw a girl holding a guitar and an overjoyed-looking Eevee. He started barking loudly at the Eevee, even if his small size did make his ferocious, territorial snarling come out as an adorable growl.
