The blind kid was taken aback for a moment before he realized. [color=mediumslateblue]"No wait, I [i]do[/i] remember! Sorry, it's been a bit of a day. First badge this morning, met a legendary Pokemon immediately after, then we hopped a ferry and from there it's just been constant movement."[/color] Skylar explained, remembering back up to the surface from a little while ago. [color=mediumslateblue]"Y'know, that did seem like a familiar Pokemon on the surface. Oh, and Xatu just went back to Dad, since I figured Seabreeze was going to keep me fine. Can't wait to get back home to see him, though!"[/color]

After that was cleared up, Oaken spoke up and mentioned that JoJo was a Male Ralts, following up with something about Gallade and Gardevoir. Skylar simply tilted his head at Oaken. [color=mediumslateblue]"Uh, I think you need a Dawn Stone or something for a Gallade, right? I hadn't put much thought into it, but whatever JoJo wants to be then I'll gladly let him decide."[/color] Skylar smiled at his buddy, patting the green guy on his shoulder, and receiving an almost-purr from the Ralts. [color=mediumslateblue]"That, plus no matter what he chooses, he'll still fill a good role on my team. He's done good work so far, and I imagine that'll keep going on."[/color] 

After the conversation, it seemed that the group passed by the Beheeyem unharmed, save for Oaken's ego probably being throttled [i]juuuuust[/i] a little bit. It was understandable, though, seeing as a blind kid walked through and just had his dumb luck work out.

As the group walked, Skylar felt the Ralts on his back begin to shake a little bit at the sheer power of the hostile presence, and JoJo was lifted from the trainer's shoulder and held in his arms for the rest of the walk. There was still... something, though, that kept the two moving forward, maybe the entire group.

Then they stepped into the massive room, and [i]Mother of Lugia that's Palkia.[/i] Like, the actual Palkia! Skylar's Pokedex buzzed with not only one new entry, but [i]two[/i] meaning that it just had to ACTUALLY BE PALKIA! How?! How had Skylar met not only Entei, but also Mesprit, Azelf, [i]and[/i] Palkia within two days?! That's insane and, frankly, really convenient to Kalmia's research and such seeing as their entries were neat to have. Heck, even as a small blue Pokemon fluttered around the massive beast's neck, Skylar couldn't help but reach into his bag and grab his Pokedex, taking a quick photo of Palkia in all it's spacial glory.

As for the blue Pokemon, Skylar immediately recognized it without much worry. It [i]was[/i] one of the reasons Skylar had even come down this far into Lakewatch's bowels. As it neared the group, Skylar immediately ignored Oaken's chafe and curt response to the scene and instead raised his hand to wave, the pink Crystals of Emotion glittering within the filtered light that seeped within and JoJo displacing from the room for a moment before reappearing on Skylar's head, normally where Seabreeze would go, and wearing Skylar's sunglasses. Oddly enough, his gray and foggy eyes did fit in amongst the room itself.
[sup][sup](I imagined the crystals would be a bracelet forming around Skylar's wrist.)[/sup][/sup]
[color=mediumslateblue]"Hello, Azelf... a-and Palkia... uh, I'm sure you can guess why me and Vivia are here, at least. T-though it is certainly an honor to be in both of your presences right now..."[/color]
