The Grand Opening

[driftingmods]

[A large WELCOME sign is hanging from the buildings when you walk into Levanta Town, but that seems to be the only sign that today is any different than any other day. The villagers are simply going about their daily business. However, if they are approached they are more than happy to explain the region as well as they can to any new arrivals.

Welcome to Levanta Town in The Drifting Land!]

[but he can find textbooks and manuals and all sorts of informative things about this place somewhere! And he needs people to talk at to about this new information! And catching Flying-types can't be too different here than back in Unova...]

It's not unlikely that he might wind up here as well. I hope he does, if only to, as you said, open his eyes. [N might be kind of really weird, but it would be nice if he learned how things really were in most places.]

[Oh heavens, just talk to Bianca!]

And maybe he'll even end up being one of your best friends, Cheren! [The idea's a nice one. A group of five four friends.] It'd be cool to get to know him at least.

[typeadvantage]

[But he can't tl;dr to Bianca, he has to keep her from getting in dangerous situations or other things like that. Multitasking is hard when it comes to dealing with her!]

I don't know about that. I doubt he'd approve of battling even if his eyes are opened to other things. [it would be nice to get to know him better and show him that most trainers are good people, but well. It's not something Cheren will admit aloud right now.]

[powerfulwarrior]

[Is it the bouncing bosom.]

Battling might not be on the top of his "approval" list, but he can at least acknowledge that it's how we get to know each other. It might take a while though, I guess. [Caaaan you feeeeel the tsuuun toniiight ♪ Hilbert'd be more than happy to take that job from Cheren, if he didn't want to do it.]

[typeadvantage]

[is that how Bianca gets away with things in Hilbert land?]

A while is probably a bit of an understatement, given how he spoke before. [unless N sits down with Pokemon and learns from them or something, anyway. Cheren doesn't see much aside from that helping to change N's mind, really.]

[powerfulwarrior]

[He's just a teenage boy, Cheren!]

There's hope. I think he'll come around as long as he sees it in action, when we're on the same side. [This is one thing Hilbert firmly believes. No matter how long it takes, he will show N that Pokémon and humans can co-exist peacefully and battle aside one another and that they don't need to be separated. And also that battling was a way to bring them closer together. You have a goddamn cheery childhood friend.]
