1 day after Chapter 1:
Rowlet and Torchic were just sitting in their house, as one does. But they were slightly sadder than normal, because their new friend Paras was sad, and that's sad. They decided to go on a long walk on the beach for the third time this series to clear their mind, but instead, they found an interesting poster.
"Hey, Torchic! I found an interesting poster!"
"How do you know it's interesting?"
"Well, it says: "Join the Tyrunt or maybe Bagon guild today! We love exploring, saving people, and forming rescue teams! Join for pretzel rods! Meet at the big mountain by the river, and you'll see a poorly-constructed dirt shack that's our guild HQ. Seeya then!" Do you want to join the guild, Torchic?"
"I mean, our lives are very uninteresting, so let's see what it's like."
And so, Torchic and Rowlet marched their way along to the guild. They were both very nervous, given that they had never tried anything in their entire life like this. But they were excited for that exact same reason. They climbed the mountain, and this is what they saw.
"Welcome to the Tyrunt Guild! I'm Tyrunt."
"It is NOT CALLED THAT! It is the BAGON GUILD, after ME, BAGON!"
"I came up with this idea!"
"You might have came up with that idea, but I did all the planning! I hate you!"
"Speaking of, where are our pretzel rods?"
"Oh. Sorry, Rowlet. In this bag."
They ate their pretzel rods, and they were very tasty.
"Well, Bagon, can you introduce every member of the guild, and also the rescue teams? I'm very out of the loop when it comes to this."
"Okay. If you want, we can break out into song! We've been planning a rap, given that nobody new has visited for a while. We also have an opera, if you wa-"
"No. Just introduce them normally."
"I'm Tyrunt, the founder. Bagon is the co-founder-"
"SHUT UP!"
"No. We bicker a lot, but when we plan together, we get a lot done. That person with the mop is Golett, who is only here because his parents REALLY wanted him to join a guild. He is considering leaving, but he also hates his parents."
"That's screwed up."
"That's just the way the world works, Rowlet. Anyway, our oldest member is Goomy."
"Howdy!"
"Goomy has been our friend for a while, but, truth be told, he's kinda retired from exploring. He lives in the tiny house above the guild."
"Then there's Impidimp."
"Hello, I'm Impidimp, one of the main explorers. I always do what I'm told, but if I get too mad, I might go Goblin Mode. And the last time I went Goblin Mode, I went to jail for 5 years."
"I don't trust this guy." Rowlet whispered to Torchic.
"There's our newest recruit, Yanma. Although he is the newest recruit, he has been here for years."
"Why haven't there been new recruits?"
"We just didn't feel the need to recruit someone, but ever since Paras showed up, we felt like we should. And finally, our planner, Noibat. He puts missions for us on the bulletin board over there, and the main ones are stop Giratina, get Paras back, and buy as much pretzel rods as possible."
"Wow, Bagon! Those guys seem nice, but what about the rescue teams?"
"I'm glad you asked. We have Team Fossils, who are Archen, Omanyte, and Lileep. They like digging up fossils. There's Team P.O.O., which is Poliwag, Oranguru, Oddish. Despite what their name might suggest you, they are VERY SERIOUS. They love hunting treasure, and are famed for finding anything. And finally, the final team will present themselves."
"Hi guys, it's Team Funny! I'm Mr Rime, and Mr Mime and Galarian Mr Mime are my teammates."
"Me and Galar Mime are his hype men! Tell a joke!"
"Okay, okay, okay. What did the Gardevoir say to the Jynx?"
Everyone in the crowd asked what.
"Hi."
Everyone starting laughing incredibly loudly.
"Is this supposed to be funny, Torchic? Seriously, is this?"
"I'm not sure."
"Now, do you want to form a rescue team?" said Tyrunt.
"Well, first I need to get someone."
They decided to try and find Happiny, although it took quite a long while. Rowlet decided to ask her if she wanted to join their rescue team, and she said yes.
"Hey, Tyrunt! Happiny wants to join our rescue team!" said Rowlet.
"Yeah! I do!"
"So, you 3, what do you want to name your team?"
"Hmmmm... Hey, Torchic? Happiny? Can we name our team Team Egg? I mean, Happiny likes eggs, and we're birds that lay eggs."
"Yeah!" said Happiny.
"I guess." said Torchic.
"Well, as founder of the Tyrunt Guild, I have to test you to make you Rescue Team official.. You two, close your eyes and I will throw a rock with a happy face on it somewhere in the guild HQ, and you have to find it. This is not a test on how quickly you can find it, it's a test of patience. 3...2...1...GO!"
It was way more difficult then they thought. They seemed to search everywhere, but they just could not find it, no matter how they tried. They searched the campsite, the shack, the field, the pond, but to no avail. But then Rowlet had an idea.
"Hey, you two! This might be a trick question. I think he might not have thrown the rock at all. Let's ask him."
They found Tyrunt.
"Hey! Tyrunt! Open your hands!"
"Whatever you say, Rowlet..."
The rock was there.
"You see, Team Egg, hunting treasure isn't about searching where you think it is. It's about thinking outside the box. You're now an official Rescue Team. Remember, your main goals are to save Paras, and defeat Giratina."
"I'm not sure why you asked a team with a baby in it to save the entire world. You should get a team of actually powerful Pokemon, not Pokemon with base 300 stat totals. Well, you can do what you want to do, but that wasn't a good decision on your end, dumdumhead." said Bagon.
"WAAAAH! You MEANIE!"
"Sorry, Happiny. Bagon's a jerk who gets enjoyment out of making people feel like crap. Don't listen to him. Also, it's the Tyrunt Guild, not the Bagon Guild."
"Okay."
As the trio finished up their duty at the Guild, they realized that they'd not seen Paras in a really long time. They thought that he just might be off exploring his new world, but he could easily have gotten lost. Worried, Noibat assigned the team their first mission: Find Paras. So off they went to find Paras, and it surprisingly didn't take long. Unfortunately, he was on Mount Spooky. If you don't know what Mount Spooky is, (which you obviously don't given that I haven't mentioned Mount Spooky at all in this book) it's a mountain where a Froslass lives and places curses on people for fun. Obviously, Paras didn't know that, since he's only been in the Pokemon world for a day, but Team Egg was worried out of their mind. They told Paras about all the places in the vicinity of the Guild, and helped guide him through the land, and for the first time since he got in this world, he wasn't feeling completely sad. He was only feeling 99% sad, which is very good. Unfortunately for Paras, nobody knew how to bring him back to the human world, but people across the Pokemon planet were looking. After finding him, Paras asked Tyrunt if he could live at the Guild for now, and he allowed him to, so Paras now lives in the Guild now. After a long day of work, Rowlet and Torchic decided to go back to their house to unwind, but then they saw this on Psyduck News.
"Good evening. Psyduck here, on Psyduck News. I have received a report that the Froslass on Mount Spooky has been elected for President of the Giratina Club, and she is now leading various Pokemon to join Giratina on their quest to be rude, do rude things, and a reporter Psyduck has gone undercover in the Club, and they are talking about keeping Paras in the Pokemon World, which if you know anything about the recent situation with Paras, you know that's bad. Psyduck out."
