Pokémon: Vengeance
Pahoehoe City
Prosper screamed as he was dragged out of bed by Dre's very excitable Darmanitan Clyde, the ape-like Pokémon laughing loudly. "LEMME GO, CLYDE!"
"Fat chance, chico!" He dragged him down the stairs and to the kitchen, making the trainer hit his head on a few things. "It's morning! Levántate!"
"NO!NO UP!" He hit his head on the cabinet. "Ah, SHIT!"
"Clyde, thank you for getting his lazy ass up," Dre called from the breakfast table.
The Darmanitan grinned wider and put the dazed Prosper in a chair at the table. "No problemo, jefe!" Clyde bounded off with a cackle into the living room.
Prosper glared at his mentor, rubbing the back of his head. "Do you really have to re-initiate the wake up call...?"
"Yup! I've been trying to wake your skinny ass up for over an hour!" The gym leader laughed at the scowl he was given. "Hey, not my fault you've fallen into bad habits."
Prosper groaned, rubbing his forehead. "What do you want?"
"It's about Baby Doll. She's been seen in Blizzard City."
This got the trainer's attention. He sat up quickly. "What?"
"Clarian, the Blizzard City gym leader, saw her there. She wore one of your shirts, like she normally does."
"Is she okay?"
Dre shrugged. "No clue. However, Team Vitium plans on doing something with the ancient ruins outside of the city."
"The Ruins of Renascentia?" Prosper scowled. "Isn't there a portal there to some kind of other world?"
"That's the theory. Clarian thinks they'll find a way to activate it." Dre crossed his arms. "They might be able to find a way to capture a legendary Pokémon."
"We need to stop them!" Prosper made to stand, but the gym leader stopped him. "What?"
"You need to be wary. Baby Doll might not be the same. And it won't name as easy to get her back as Benny was."
He nodded, scowling with determination.
