The orange lizard.. No, no.. The Charmeleon, turning around looking at me with an inquisitive look. It seems I caught him in the middle of drinking from his flask. "What do ya' mean you remember, remember what?".
"Well.." I started "I remember that you are a charmeleon"
"How very observant of you" He said while rolling his eyes. Sarcasm oozing off his tongue. He pointed a claw at me "It's a little pathetic that you couldn't remember that to begin with". My ears fell flat against my head, I guess they do that now. "Do you remember your name now?" He said, voice becoming slightly slurred
I thought for a moment before finally speaking "Matt…" I said slowly, it felt right. It felt natural. And it felt… un-pokemon-like. I blinked for a moment "And I.. don't think I was always like this…" I said looking at my paws. No, I knew this wasn't my body, but I think I know what I was before this. Human.
The charmeleon looks at me dumbstruck. "Yeah I would hope you wouldn't have always been an amnesiac" He said dramatically sloshing his beverage into the air.

I gave him a blank stare "No, no not like that, I mean I don't think I was always a riolu." I said. The words were heavy as nobody decided to keep the conversation going at this point. The wartortle continued to carry me throughout the town, being as silent and stoic as ever. On the opposite side of the spectrum, the town seemed busy and lively. Pokemon were chattering about, a mother buying bread from a merchant while her kids run around enjoying themselves. The air was nice, despite being a little damp. Most of the light creeping through the cracks in the cave ceiling high above, or the numerous torches that lit the area. Despite being a small town, it was fairly lively.

The wartortle grunted as we approached a building with a giant red 'X' barley mounted on the top of the building. Seeing my confused glare regarding the red X, The charmeleon grunted "It kinda fell over a little while ago" The three of us walked in, that is to say the two of them with one of me on the back of one of them 'walked in'. The Wartortle lead the way, me included, while the charmeleon followed. We were greeted by a Chansey, who had a worried expression once she saw me, then a slightly annoyed expression when she saw the charmeleon, "Afternoon Vladus, another victim from one of your drunken espionages?" she said with a hateful glare.
He looked at her annoyed as well "ACTUALLY, I saved this riolu from certain death from a monster, Chan, so before you go out of your way to place your judgement, I suggest you take a step back and realize how capable I am at doing things that are heroic and amazing" He threw down his flask "I probably won't even get paid for this!"
The chansey, or I guess Chan, turned to look at the wartortle "Wounds?"

"Two. One on the arm, one lodged in the leg." The wartortle replied. Wow I never thought he could speak.

She nodded "anything else?"

Vladus chimed in "He couldn't remember anything about anything for a while. He also thinks he was something before being a riolu, last time I checked riolu doesn't have a prevolution so I would mark him up as slight psychopathic symptoms or possible brain damage" he said smugly

Chan exhaled heavily, "Thank you Vladus you are always so helpful", she began walking toward a hallway "follow me, we'll get him in a bed" She lead us down the corridor and turned to an individual room, mostly white but still keeping a slightly homey feel. Pushed against a wall was what looked to be a wooden table with a white cloth laid over it. The wartortle laid me down over it, careful with my leg, still currently occupied with a seed. The chansey sighed "Thank you Brazx, for your help, and thank you for not being a drunken slob like your partner here.." her voice full of malice as she gave him the occasional hateful glare. Vladus simply rolled his eyes.

Her voice and tone changed entirely as she turned to look at me. "Hi there, you feeling Ok today?" she glanced to my leg, not giving my time to respond "Looks like were are gonna have to try to get that out of you, huh?" She said encouragingly. I wasn't looking for encouragement as much as I was looking for a way to get a seed out of my leg. She tapped it slightly and I winced. She wiggled the seed slightly and I growled in pain. She backed off instantly and thought for a moment. Her face became more stern as she looked at Brazx. Both of them nodded. She turned back to me with a smiling face as her happy demeanor returned. "Alrighty this is just gonna hurt a teensy tiny bit, ok?" Brazx walked over toward me, looking as visibly excited and emotional as ever, which is to say not at all. Chan walked over to my leg and placed a hand on the seed.

"One.. Two.." Before she reached three she yanked as hard as she could, plopping the seed right out as Brazx held me to the table. I screamed out in pain as Brazx continued to hold me down. It was a little unnecessary considering I didn't really resist, I was just screaming. I calmed down after a good four seconds and settled into a panting growl. Chan noticed that I started to bleed again from the spot and quickly gabbed a cloth to wrap around it. She went ahead and bandaged my arm while she was at it. She smiled as Brazx finally released me "Now was that so bad?" she said in a cheerful manner. I honestly couldn't tell if this was a joke or not, I had just let out a bloodcurdling scream while she yanked an object out my leg. Yes it was that bad. Yes it was. Instead of vocalizing my thoughts, I gave a soft nod and let her be on her way. I tried to sit up a little bit. I had to admit I did feel a bit better after that. I stretched my arms as the other two awkwardly watched me.

"So er.. I guess you probably picked up on our names" Vladus said to clear the silence
I nodded, "Vladus and Bra-.. Brax-.. B-.. However you pronounce it".

"Brazx" He said firmly. You let the letters play off in your mind. Yes, it would have definitely been impossible to pronounce his name without that clear-cut pronunciation. It would be a pity to anyone that would have to read it without knowing fully exactly how to say it.

"I also take it that you are partners in… doing something..." I said nervously

"A rescue team," he said pointing a claw at me. "Not sure if it's the ignorance or the amnesia talking, but they are pretty well known across most towns, well most towns in pokemon territory that is." His comment was hurtful but I didn't interrupt. "They pretty much have a couple of pokemon who go out helping other pokemon by request, and receive money for doing so"

"So how did you know I was out there?" I asked
"We didn't, We were just patrolling the area" he stated

I thought for a moment "You said 'pokemon territory'. What do you mean by that?"

He looked a little sad for a moment "Pokemon territory, as in everything that we have managed to hold against the monsters. They own some of the towns throughout the underground, most of which are East of here. Pokemon and Monsters are pretty hostile toward each other, if you couldn't tell by the seed that was in your leg. It has almost turned into a war at this point, hell it probably already has." He finished downing his flask as he walked out of the room. Brazx followed him as he left the room as well.
