After Percy left Ash and Cynthia went back inside the villa Ash re-transferred his Sceptile and Feraligatr back to Professor Oak in Pallet Town. He then went back to the living room and asked Cynthia "so, what is there to do here?"

"Well, why don't we have a battle?"

"Nah, one a day is good for me, besides, the only Pokémon I have with me is Garchomp, and he's still exhausted from flying here from Kanto via Johto, and then, on top of that, I just had that battle."

"Well, fair enough."

"You can use this time to take care of some of the berries that we grow here. Other than that, there are many books here related to Pokémon in the Unova Region here. Not to mention how to treat a Pokémon's injury. Some of them are the ones that I learned from when I was just starting out. It is doubly important to know how to treat injuries when you have a dragon type."

"Really?"

"Yes. When I've battled against wild Pokémon with Garchomp there have been some really serious injuries inflicted upon them, no matter what they are."

"I see. I think that I shall do so then" Ash replied. "Where are they?"

"They're down the hall and the third door on the left."

"Okay thanks" Ash said as he left the room to go to the villa's library.

Author's Notes

I apologise that this chapter is so short. It's kind of like a lead in to the next one.
