trusthell | Welcome.

You wake with the unshakable feeling that you shouldn't be here.

Perhaps you were in the middle of something, perhaps you weren't. Either way, you're waking up in an unfamiliar location with no recollection of how you got here. The room you've woken up in is sparsely-decorated, though that might be difficult to tell at first given how nice the beds are...but eventually you'll notice a few things that are a little...off. Maybe the scent is striking you wrong - it's clean, but it's not yours. Maybe your bed back home doesn't support your back in quite this way. Maybe you should be seeing sunlight through your window by now.

Maybe you should have a window in the first place.

This isn't right, but leaving the room won't give you any more answers. You might want to grab the silver key sitting on your trunk on the way out.

Don't worry though, you aren't all alone here. Once you step outside your room into the hallway, you'll notice that a few others are emerging from their rooms as well. It looks like they're just as confused and concerned as you are. Feel free to talk to them, but none of you know how exactly you wound up here and maybe some useful information can be found by exploring.

If you follow the hallway to its end (and it's a very long hallway), you'll eventually arrive in the foyer. You'll find some very interesting information about yourselves on the wall near the clock. Perhaps even more importantly, if you look on the other side of the multi-pendulumed thing, you'll find other framed information that you might want to pay attention to. It could very well be the key to escaping this strange place, after all. Don't worry if you forget the rules, you can find them in every room of the building.

Of course, search as you might, you won't find a doorway or a window of any sort. Getting out won't be so easy, it seems.

But who knows? Perhaps your fellow captives have something to say about all of this.

I guess not. It still sounds pretty [lonely, uh-] boring to not have Pokémon around.

[...]

What kind of Pokémon do you have?

[That's a conversation that might put them both at ease.]

Yeah, it has to be. It's weird enough not to have any of them around here, except the ones that aren't actually Pokemon.

[...which is so fuckin weird. so fucking weird.]

But anyway, I'm the best Bug trainer in Alola, so that should tell you enough. I mean, unless you don't know anything about what kinds of Pokemon we have in Alola.

I don't know anything about what kinds of Pokémon you have in Alola.

[Just like Lusamine. Do they know each other like him and Gold?]

Well, I don't know where you're from, but you can find most of 'em in other regions. Masquerain, Ariados, Pinsir, Scizor... but my ace in the hole is all Alolan. Golisopod is definitely the best.

[The first four he's definitely heard of, if not outright seen, but that last one...]

What's it like?

[Tell him about your cool signature Pokémon, man.]

Well, it's one of the two Bug/Water Pokemon that stay Bug/Water, and it's kind of like Gyarados in that you've gotta put a lot of work into a Pokemon that's kind of tough to raise, you know? It evolves from a little guy called Wimpod, which is... okay. The stuff it learns just from training normally doesn't really play to its strengths, and when it gets hurt too bad it just literally runs away.

Once it evolves, though, it hits like a truck and can take a lot of damage. It also learns a lot of moves that'll let it move before its opponent, even if it's not that fast under normal circumstances. First Impression can only be used the first time a Golisopod faces off against a Pokemon, but it's great. And they just look cool? They're just big ol' bugs that look kinda like they've got samurai armor on. You can kinda see part of my good friend Big G in my profile picture, but not enough to get a good idea about what he actually looks like.

[A super tough Bug/Water type... Guzma doesn't have to get very far into his explanation for Silver to start lighting up.]

We're gonna have to battle sometime. I want to see Golisopod in action.

[...You know, once they're out of here and stuff.]

Oh, yeah, definitely. I mean, I'll probably beat you like anyone else, but you know.

What kinda Pokemon do you have, anyway? You know mine, after all.

Well, there's Gyarados, Kingdra, Feraligatr, Honchkrow, Weavile... And Rhyperior.

[...Maybe he shouldn't have mentioned Rhyperior, as he is something of an ace, but there's no point in concealing an ace you don't have in your hand... Or something like that. That sounds smart.]

We're pretty tough ourselves. Don't count me out just yet.

...yeah, I think I know where I'm at with those. They're some pretty tough customers, I'll give you that.

Lots of water in there, though.

It's a good type.

[...Okay if he puts it like that he's going to sound like he has a specialty, though, and that's not-]

Johto's no Hoenn, but it still has a lot of water to cross. With the three of them around, there aren't many places we can't go.

Welcome.
