In response to Sean's question, yes, I have tried Bulbapedia, but I personally prefer Serebii.
Chapter 27: Farewell
"C'mon banana… peel, dammit!" I said as I stared down a stationary banana lying on the counter.
"Oh, I think I saw it move!" Ember exclaimed.
"No, that was when I slammed what I assumed to be my fist on the table."
"Are you sure? You didn't use much force."
"JONATHAN USED ENOUGH FORCE TO MOVE THE BANANA FOR ONLY A FRACTION OF A SECOND."
"Could you be quiet, please?! I'm trying to concentrate."
"gUOyuHvyVufJibHKiYGcYcgY."
"Shhhhh, Gamma. Jonathan is trying to use his powers," Ember whispered.
When we arrived home, Jenny immediately went to the phone to call the police. She couldn't explain what Mr. Trench Coat looked like, but the police agreed to keep a look out for any suspicious people. Afterwards, she called Mark and told him that she had to head straight home due to an incident, so he had to pick Ember up.
At the moment, she was the computer questioning Beta on the events that just transpired.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beta456: Unfortunately, our trainer has found us, so we'll be forced to relocate to another area.
Hickory4: That's too bad, I hardly knew you. So do you know where you'll be staying?
Beta456: I successfully located an abandoned laboratory. It is full of electronic equipment, so it should keep us content, as well as throw off our trainer's radar.
Hickory4: That's good.
Beta456: By the way, how did you first meet your Ralts?
Hickory4: Why do you ask?
Beta456: No reason.
Hickory4: If you must know, I met him on the street.
Beta, from inside the computer, noticed that a pained expression was on Jenny's face. I was able to slightly sense the sadness from the living room. I would've gone to see what was wrong with her, but I was on fire for the third time that day.
Beta456: there is an expression of sadness on your face. There is more to your story, isn't there?
Deciding not to bother hiding it, Jenny typed the rest of the story.
Hickory4: I met him the same day my best friend died.
Beta456: I see. I am sorry for asking. So, what was your friend's name?
Hickory4: His name was Jonathan. I named the Ralts after him due to how similar they are.
Hickory4: I mean were.
A tear escaped Jenny's eye. I could feel it.
Beta456: You have yet to get over it, I see. We'll stop this conversation then. May you call Alpha and Gamma here please?
Hickory4: Sure.
Beta456: By the way, I enjoy the way you type. No numbers in your words or anything! You get sick of it when someone close to you speaks it nonstop in your language.
Jenny got up and went to get the other Porygons.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What happened?!" Jenny exclaimed when she entered the room and saw me covered in soot.
"The fire extinguished somehow set me on fire," I explained.
Jennifer didn't bother interpreting what was just said. "Beta said he wants Alpha and Gamma to meet him in the computer. It's time for them to say goodbye."
"4www, dAt sUx…" Gamma moaned, "1 leik t3h taLking Muzhr00m."
"INDEED, THE RALTS'S PRECENSE IS ENJOYABLE. IT ADDS HUMOR TO A DULL DAY."
A sudden rapid knock was heard at the door. "Hey, Jennifer, open up!" came Mark's enthusiastic voice.
As soon as Jenny opened the door, Mark came running in. For a guy using crutches, he was fast. "(Gasp) There they are!" he said, marveling the Porygons in front of them.
"Um, Mark, when I said to pick up Ember, I meant for you to come tomorrow," Jenny said.
"Yeah, but when you said that you had a complete set of Porygons at your apartment I just had to come!" Mark explained, "I may not get a chance like this again! Do you know how rare these pokemon are?!"
"N-no."
"Man, why do the rarer pokemon always appear to people who don't know much about them?" Mark whined. Beta then floated into the room. "Oh my god there's another one!" Mark reached into his pocket and pulled out a red rectangular thing.
"What's that thing?" Jenny asked. I would've asked too if I could.
"This is a pokedex!" Mark proudly explained, "It records data on pokemon! One of a Pokemon trainer's goals is to fill it up with as much pokemon as you can. Very rarely does someone fill the whole thing up! Here, let me show you." He pointed the pokedex at me and Ember. The thing opened up and spoke.
"TWO POKEMON DETECTED.
POKEMON NUMBER 4: CHARMANDER.
POKEMON NUMBER 280: RALTS.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO RETRIEVE INFORMATION YES/NO?"
Mark pushed no. "See?" he asked, "Now let's try it on those Porygons!" He pointed it at the Porygons and it opened up.
"FOUR POKEMON DETECTED." Huh? I though, as did everyone else in the room.
"POKEMON NUMBER 474: PORYGON-Z.
POKEMON NUMBER 233: PORYGON 2.
POKEMON NUMBER 137: PORYGON.
POKEMON NUM-"
"Gamma, stop it!" Beta exclaimed. Gamma immediately flew into the pokedex, causing sparks and smoke to escape it. He then left the pokedex.
"Mizz30n (omp1337!"
"What did you do to my pokedex?!" Mark exclaimed.
"I don't think they would like to be recorded. They're trying to keep their location a secret," Jennifer explained. "Besides, Beta said that most things Gamma breaks get fixed on their own after a while."
"He still erased all the recorded data I had…"
"You'll get it back, you didn't have much anyways. Now, let the pokemon say good-bye." Jenny and Mark sat back to try and understand what the pokemon were about to say.
"I find it funny that you're afraid of being scanned by the pokedex," I said, voicing my curiosity.
"WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE BEHIND NO TRACE OF US HAVING BEEN TO THIS LOCATION. DELETING THE DATA OF THE POCKET MONSTER ENCYCLOPEDIA WAS A NECESSARY PRECAUTION TO ENSURE OUR SECRECY."
"1 PWN'D t3h pOkEd3ckz!!1!"
"That makes sense," I said.
"So, you three are leaving now?"
"Yes," Beta said, "We are certain that our former trainer shall use his radar to track our positions. Should we stay here, he would most likely return with more that just a single pokemon. Leaving would be our best option."
"But won't your trainer track you down again?" Ember asked.
"Don't worry, I've found the location of an abandoned laboratory on Crater Mountain just outside of the city. It is full of computers that are capable of containing more information than the appliances around this apartment, so we should have more space to hide our data from him," Beta explained.
"WE SHOULD LEAVE NOW. WE HAVE STAYED HERE FOR A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF TIME. ANY LONGER, AND WE MAY RISK ALERTING OUR EX-TRAINER OF OUR PRESENCE."
"Has time really flown that fast?" Beta wondered, "Oh well, nothing we can do about that. Let's go then."
"b-EYE j0N4thAn & 3m8er!1!!" Gamma said as he flew into the computer.
"FAREWELL, RALTS AND CHARMANDER," Alpha said as he flew after Gamma.
"See you later, then," Beta said, then he too flew into the computer.
"Do you think they'll come back eventually?" Ember asked.
"I couldn't sense their feelings to see if Beta was being sincere when he said 'see you later,' but I'm sure he was telling the truth." Besides, I had a few questions for them next time we would meet. Most of them concerning the poke ball with the yellow 'O'.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, in the internet where I couldn't hear them….
"That was an excellent cover, Alpha. Truthful too."
"COMING TO A CONCLUSION AS TO WHAT EXCUSE I HAD TO USE WHEN HE MENTIONED GAMMA DELETING THE DATA ON THE POKEDEX WAS SIMPLE."
"Yes well, it wouldn't've been good if they had heard the fourth option the pokedex was going to announce. It would've been hard to explain that!"
"R Wii d33r y37??"
"Not to worry, Gamma, we should be there in a few more milliseconds. Once there, we should begin working on you. Hopefully we shall be able to restore you to your former state of mind."
"0h g00de!1!"
"ON ANOTHER NOTE, DID YOU AQUIRE ANY INFORMATION FROM YOUR CONVERSATION WITH THE RALTS'S TRAINER?"
"Yes, in fact. As it turnes our, the Ralts appeared before her shortly after her friend had died. You do realize what that means, correct?"
"AFFERMATIVE. WE SHALL KEEP WATCH ON THE RALTS, JUST IN CASE."
"w4t3Rm3L0NZ r Gr33n oUtzid3 N' r3d N-s1de!"
"Yes they are, Gamma."
"DESTINATION ACHIVED, WE HAVE ARRIVED TO OUR DESTINATION. TIME UNTILL SOLUTION FOR PROBLEM LOCATED: UNKNOWN."
"Well we won't get anything done if we just float around. Let's get started."
Just as the Porygons were exiting the computers at the abandoned laboratory, Ember was asking me, "Do you think they'll come back eventually?"
