Dai: Be glad I haven't caught up to Adventure World yet or updates would be at a snail's pace.
BlackGatomon: Never mind how short this is due to your lack of experience on Pokémon Crystal and too much time spent otherwise.
Tsukaimon: My partner owns nothing.

It was a beautiful day as Corey, Taisuke, Seablue, and Mint kept on walking. Well, it would be even better if Seablue would just stop singing. Or if he even could sing. Which he could not.
"How long until he shuts up?"
"I dunno. He's your Pokémon. Mint, shut him up."
"Okay."
Mint walked up to Seablue. The Totodile was walking, singing, and just being a nuisance. Actually, nuisance was way too kind. The young Chikorita smirked and covered his mouth with her leaf. This was possible due to his jaw deformity.
"What's the big deal?"
"Do I really need to come out and say it?"
Seablue was disheartened and they walked on.

They made good time, reaching Cherrygrove by lunchtime. This was good, as a certain Totodile had already eaten everything that Corey had packed. She was still scolding him as they entered the town.
"That food was supposed to last us the week! How are we going to go on a long journey like this? I can't imagine how we're ever going to reach Azalea!" This was true. The path to Azalea was a long journey on either side, and this said nothing about Victory Road.
They stopped for lunch at a restaurant and restocked on food supplies, along with a book titled "101 Ways to Keep a Totodile's Mouth Shut". This would hopefully conserve food once they brought the Egg back to the lab. If it failed, then they would have to live off of CureBerries. A CureBerry, while tasty, does not make a very filling meal.
The four of them saw a sign promoting a contest. The best person would get a Map Card for their PokeGear. Corey was ecstatic. All that she had was a Phone Card. The contest was a Pokémon battle. Corey and Taisuke both entered for a better chance of winning and they made it into the finals together.
"The final match! Corey Carlyle versus Taisuke Mesudi!"
"Mint!"
"Seablue!"
"Corey has sent out her Totodile! Taisuke has sent out his Chikorita! Corey's in trouble!" Never mind that neither of them knew any moves of their specific types. Apparently, the announcer was an idiot.
"Chikorita! Tackle!"
"Totodile! Scratch!"
The attacks both hit, but Seablue seemed to be doing best. Due to them both being low leveled, the attack that got through won the match.
"And the winner is Corey Carlyle!"

Dai: I know that Corey won too easily, but that's exactly how it went on my Crystal Version, and I'm terrible at fight scenes. It'll get better by the first Gym Battle.
