It's been a whole year since that day. I was trotting through the forest, looking for some dinner, when I heard a yowling. Out of curiosity, I went to go check it out and found, not a Pokémon, but a human baby. I could tell by the smell that it was a female. She was wrapped in a blanket, just lying out in the middle of the woods. As there were no humans around, I figured she had been abandoned. What was I supposed to do? I couldn't just leave her to starve or get eaten by some wild Houndoom.

So, now you know why I'm here. Over the year, the human grew so much, I had to keep digging a bigger den. I know someday, I'll have to return her to the human world, but she's still much too small.

Yesterday, she was talking to Houndour, a playmate of hers and the son of a close friend of mine, and he told her that human children are supposed to go on these, 'Pokémon Journeys' and now she keeps talking about how, when she grows up, she's going to explore the far reaches of the planet, with everyone she knows as her team of Pokémon.

I can't help but wag my tail, she reminds me so much of me when I was just a pup. I wanted to be the Pokémon of a trainer who would take me all the way around the planet. It might be nice to go around the world with my daughter, but for now, I'm more worried with keeping her fed and out of trouble. I have to wonder if all human babies eat this much?
