[i]"Enjoy it for now,"[/i] Mabel said. [i]"You never know if the weather will stay sunny, or if it will start to rain. Even though I don't mind rain."[/i]
She remembered living in the water before she had gotten wings and she still dove into the ocean for a swim when she felt for it. But ever since she had evolved, she quite enjoyed feeling the sun on her skin.

"Well, you don't need to," Mindy said, "but since you're buying a completely new outfit you can see how it goes together. Jeans are pretty universal though, they go on a lot. And they are good for travelling, although hiking trousers are ideal for that." She laughed a bit, fiddling with her hair as she realised she was rambling. "I don't think we'll find those here though, it's the wrong store for outdoor clothing."

[i]"Fezzy!"[/i] The melodic voice came from between some clothes and a small face poked through. The Meloetta looked at him. [i]"You're different from the last time I saw you, but I know it's you! And you look fan-tas-tic. How are you? And how is Gavin? And who is the human girl?"[/i] 

"A walk and the gym," Michael said as he nodded. "That will be plenty of exercise for the Pokémon." He took watched Bear who rubbed Soul's fur. 
Hopefully Bear would stay just curious about the new colours, he could tell Soul and Jycii were reluctant to elaborate on it.

[i]"Worst? No. Weird? Yes. You look different from any other Abol I've seen.[/i] Bear looked at Soul, his eyes narrowed in suspicion, but shrugged. [i]"But I know some Pokémon are born with a different fur. I liked the golden look better, Black-Boy."[/i] 
He turned around and did some training exercises, the colour of Soul's fur wasn't important anymore. 

[i]"Bear will come around,"[/i] Kim assured her. [i]"Merlin and Bear don't get along very well, but not in a way it really disrupts the team. I'm sure Bear will get used to you. Just do good and if Bear sees it, he'll realize you're not an evil Pokémon."[/i]
Andy listened to his Pokémon talk. He had no idea about what, but he had long accepted humans could never understand Pokémon like Pokémon could understand humans. Except for his nephew of course, which was an interesting case. He walked straight to the hotel and as he did he send a text message to professor Elm that he was on his way there.
