"This is disastrous." Professor Birch mumbled, concerned, into his Poke'nav, "The two conflicting weather phenomena have split Hoenn right down the center! The heat wave is spreading from Fortree while the floods and Tsunami are nudging from the seas at Slateport! It looks like it's gunna last for days!"

"Where the two Phenomena clash..." Birch continued looking away from his Poke'nav at the rising water below, "the damage from the ensuing chaos must be immense! It's defiantly suicidal do go out in such conditions and yet...here I am."

Professor Birch, father to Sapphire Birch, sat cross legged and thoughtful on top of a tall pine tree. He looked down at the he'd taken from his bag.

"I'm sorry Treeko, I've gotten us into quite a mess haven't I." Birch apologized, "I was only trying to look for a trainer worthy of the Pokedex but it seems the weather got in our way."

He looked down at his Poke'nav,"According to the broadcast, a Tsunami will hit right about this area any minute."

Birch looked around for a way to escape but the current was too strong. He turned and saw the Tsunami coming right for him and the tree he was perched.

"Ahh! It's coming right this way!" he managed to yell out before bring sucked under by the massive wave.

Just as he was pulled under, though, Birch's bag along with his Treeko managed to slip out of his grip.

"Oh no! The Pokedex! And Treeko!" he yelled again reaching for both but they were carried away more swiftly than he could reach.

Meanwhile Pacifidlog Town was in it's own trouble. Even though it was the floating city, it was in danger of collapsing under the rip tides formed by Kyogre.

A little old man opened his window and mumbled "How sad..." He was the last one to leave the floating town. Well he and another.

"Hmm, guess it's not visible today either. The illutionary island..." the little old man said as he looked out his window at the violent ocean sadly.

"Pops you remember our promise..." another young man said as he got prepared to leave the small floating cottage, "We're suppose to seek shelter if we didn't see the island today. Everyone else has already left!"

"But I really wanted- whoops." the older man started before beginning to fall out the window.

As he fell towards the water below a tongue seemed to come out of no where and catch him. The tongue of a Kecleon.

The old man thankfully smiled as he was brought to safety, "Thanks for saving me Wally."

The green haired young man coughed a bit as he nodded, "You're welcome, now lets hurry to the nearest shelter!"

All quickly headed down stairs and got into the raft. Once all Pokemon and people where secure as they could be in the raft, Wally's Cacturne began rowing towards safety.

Wally looked at all of his amazing, green Pokemon in wonder. He could have never guessed where he would be on this day if you had asked him about a month before.

He looked at Ruru with a bit of sadness, remembering that it was not his Pokemon, but his friend Ruby's who'd gone missing since he'd helped him catch his Kecleon.

Since then he'd caught a Cacnea, which had soon evolved into a Cacturne and a Roselia. He'd also ended up on Pacifidlog Town all thanks to the Mirage Island man. He'd said it was a good place to recuperate and since he'd gotten there, Wally did feel a bit better.

Suddenly, Ruru's horns began to glow in a familiar way and a wave of dread that he knew he shouldn't be feeling washed over Wally.

"She might have sensed Ruby. I hope he's alright, especially in this storm." Wally thought, but could see no other boats.

"I'm sorry Ruru, I know you want to find Ruby but I don't know where to start searching!" Wally tried to justify himself.

Then he saw something, "Look."

Everyone in the raft looked in the direction Wally was pointing and saw a bag with a Pokemon in it. A Treeko.

At that moment, Wally's short time as a Dex-holder began. It ended when he wrote a note returning his Grovyle and Pokedex to him. Or did it...
