Most of the small welcoming committee stared in astonishment as Vuduin floated to them. One literally had her mouth hanging open. There was one member, however, who didn't seem impressed.

A pink Pokemon silently hovered all around Vuduin, seemingly inspecting every inch of him with its hypnotic yellow eyes. After an awkwardly long scan, the Porygon-Z nodded and faced Vuduin directly.

"This check-in is for avatars only," it stated in a robotic voice. The voice seemed to come from a small device attached to one of its shoulders. "Sir, if you are indeed an avatar, please state your representative Pokemon and prove your power by attacking me with a move."

"Porygon-Z," one of the human committee members interjected, "She just floated six feet off the ground! At this point, it would only be rude to-"

"Silence," Porygon-Z interrupted. "I am simply treating this man like everyone else. It is possible that he used the aid of a psychic-type Pokemon to levitate."

Some of the committee still seemed embarrassed by their Pokemon member's behavior, but its last response shut them up. Porygon-Z hovered to a roped-off area nearby and silently waited for an attack.
