One hour later...

Harry leaned against the far wall only half paying attention as Director Clavell's voice echoed from the loudreds onstage. [color=a0410d][i]"Go wherever you want, travel across Paldea, and find something to treasure!"[/i][/color]. Mentally, Harry was already plotting out the path to the first vault on his Xtranceiver. He could probably make it in a day and a half if Rotor decided he was willing to cooperate today. Thinking about getting back on that Cyclizar was enough to make Harry shudder. He'd read that Cyclizar was the main method of transport around the Paldea reagion and had counted himself extremely lucky when he found one on its own shortly after arriving. However, Rotor proved he didn't like the idea of being a trainer's Pokémon and would often rebel unless Harry made a peace offering with food. From on top of his trainer's head, Striker cooed protectively. He could sense Harry's cautiousness and saw him fiddling with Rotor's Pokeball. [color=ed1c24][i]"Rrrr..."[/i][/color] Even the small bird wasn't Rotor's biggest fan. 

As Clavell's speech was drawing to a close, Harry looked up to see the assembled students break out into cheers and applause. Large groups began to break off and push to get to the exits while other students let out their flying Pokémon and airlifted themselves out of the school. [i][color=silver]"Welp. Looks like it's time to go, buddy. We'll see how Rotor is feeling once we get to Mezagoza Square"[/color][/i] Turning his attention to the crowd in front of him, Harry began making the trek back through the school. Already, he was imagining the praise he'd receive upon finding these four lost Pokémon. Harry was so lost in thought, he didn't notice a pair of eyes following him the whole way down.
