"Will you quit following me! I don't need your help!" The Purrloin gave the Pansage behind her a doleful glare. The Pansage attempted not to flinch.

"Burgundy, it could be dangerous out here, and stuck as a Pokemon, you could get hurt," Cilan yet again tried to reason with his stubborn rival, but to no avail. She continued ahead much faster than before, attempting to discourage him from following her.

Ever since the two had woke up that morning as a Purrloin and a Pansage, neither one had been getting along with the other. Cilan insisted that he accompany Burgundy as she went to search for help, and Burgundy denied that she even needed help. Cilan sighed. He really wished that she wouldn't be so prideful all the time. He didn't want her to get hurt.

Up ahead, Burgundy stopped. Cilan managed to catch up to her, coming to stand beside her. In front of the two, much to their surprise, was a town. But not an ordinary town.

Neither of the two could see any people anywhere. There were only Pokemon living here. Several shops sat in front of them, one of which reminded Cilan of the PokeMart. He also saw what appeared to be a bank, and another which appeared to be somewhat of a restaurant. The two rivals were amazed.

"A Pokemon city...no way," Burgundy whispered. Cilan just stood there trying to observe everything that he could just from the little town's entrance. Burgundy took a few steps into the town, and was almost immediately greeted by a very friendly Pidove.

"Welcome newcomers, to the beautiful Lyllia Town!" Cilan stared at the Pidove, blinking in surprise.

"Pokemon have towns?" Burgundy asked, and the Pidove blinked in confusion. Cilan resisted the urge to punch her. Didn't it occur to her that wasn't the thing to say?

"Burgundy," Cilan said, laying a hand on the Purrloin shoulder, "Maybe you should-" He was cut off by a Fury Swipes. Great. He thought. We can use Moves as well.

"Don't touch me!" Burgundy hissed.

"Did you just Attack me?" Cilan asked, holding his arm from where Burgundy had scratched him.

Pidove cocked his head, "Are you two courting?"

Burgundy turned towards him, on all fours, ready to attack, "Stay off!"

"Woah!" A new, deep voice boomed above them, "Battling is only allowed inside the designated Battle Zones."

Cilan turned and saw a Elekid walking towards them. He let out a glup. When he was a human an Elekid never seemed tall, but now... Well, he now felt bad for every time he had sent his own Pansage out to battle a larger opponent.

The Elekid glared down at them, "Who are you guys?"

Burgundy was staring up at the Elekid, fear in her eyes. Cilan felt that it was his time to step in. "Sorry!" He said, trying not to shrink back as the Elekid turned to look at him. "She is just confused, that is all!"

Pidove cocked his head even further, "Confused? Does she need a Persim Berry?"

"Not that kind of confusion," Cilan said quickly, "We're lost, and she is in shock, some food might do her good." Cilan hoped that there wasn't some kind of Pokemon money that he needed.

"As I said before, I DO NOT NEED YOUR HELP! I will soon be back to my normal human self," Burgundy growled very loudly at Cilan, who shrank back. Pidove and Elekid gave Burgundy a sympathetic glance.

"Poor thing," Pidove said. "Sounds like she isn't completely right in the mind. How long has she been like this?" It took Cilan a moment to understand that the other two Pokemon thought Burgundy was crazy.

"Wait, she isn't, um, crazy," Pidove placed a wing on Cilan's shoulder.

"You must be very much in love. I don't think I could ever be in a relationship with a crazy girl," Burgundy turned to glare at Pidove.

"I am not crazy you stupid-" Cilan cut Burgundy off.

"I don't suppose there is any where that the two of us could stay the night?" Elekid nodded.

"I need to go back and supervise the Battle Zone, but I'm sure Pidove would enjoy taking you to our boarding house." Pidove bowed deeply.

"It would be my pleasure to take this lovely young couple to our boarding house and get them all settled." He stood back up. "Right this way please."

"I am NOT going anywhere!" Burgundy shouted.

"She is not usually like this," Cilan said quickly, "She just needs some rest."

"Then follow me!" Pidove said, "We also have a doctor's office, if you think she needs a check up," Pidove said, as he started walking.

"Not now," Cilan said, quickly linking his arm through Burgundy's, dragging her along. She tried to wiggle out of his grip, but he held and tight and moved quickly so she had no choice but follow.

Pidove waddled along, kicking his legs up with little skips of glee. Cilan kept on glancing around at the Pokemon city. All sorts of Pokemon, all of many sizes were around. Some would give them a curious glance, but went on their way. Burgundy was also impressed with the town, so surprised that she forgot to resist Cilan.

"Here we are!" Pidove said, jolting the duo out of their trance. Pidove was pointing to a homely building. It had only a few windows and was a soft shade of blue. Above the front door a banner was draped. It showed a picture of a Minccino dancing through a field of wildflowers.

Pidove pecked on the door, which opened. A Minccino, much like the one in the banner, greeted them at the doorway.

"Welcome, I haven't seen you two around here before," She smiled kindly at Cilan and Burgundy. However, when she saw Pidove her smile froze. "Oh," She said, in a not-so-happy tone, "It's you."

"Hey-a there Becky! How have you been?"

"What do you want Raz?" Becky asked.

"Oh, just here to get this lovely couple a room. They are new in town," He said cheerfully, over emphasizing the word 'couple'.

Becky rolled her eyes, "Sure, whatever." She turned back to Cilan and Burgundy and her demeanor changed back to friendly. "Welcome. I have plenty of rooms, would you two like to share one, or have two separate ones?"

"We'll share," Cilan said quickly, gaining him a disgusted look from Burgundy. He didn't care though, he needed to talk to her, and it would be easier to talk if the two of them shared a room.

"Well then, right this way," Becky allowed Cilan and Burgundy to come in, but once they were inside, she quickly shut the door. Cilan could hear Raz say something from outside.

"I'll just wait out here for you Becky!" Raz cried cheerfully.
