TOOT. TOOT.

"We are now arriving at Gateon Port!"

In a small cabin Lillie and Elio woke up from the bunk bed's to the loud noise. The duo got up, changed and got out to see a port with a crab shaped bar, a light house and some minor buildings.

Elio grinned. "This is it, with in a few minutes our adventure in Orre will begin."

"BZZT!" Out of his back pack came a red floating screen with a face above the screen.

"BZZT! Gateon Port, a lively sea port with active trade. Loitering sailors are common sight here. BZZT!"

Elio replied back to the Dex. "Yes Rotom, we know it is a port."

Lillie turned to Elio. "So don't trust the sailors here? No matter we can always go to the pokemon center to find directions anyways."

RING RING! Lillie grabbed Rotom Dex and pressed a couple buttons to show a message from Kukui. "If you are reading this than you have made it to Orre safe and sound. The PDA download was an over all success. In case you make some friends on your travels, this can be very good in communicating with the people here, anyways be safe and let me know if you seen some good move combo's found in double battles!"

Elio signaled his ride pager to test out how long of a signal it is from Alola, nothing happened. Lillie looked at Rotom Dex's map system and aside from the forest area that was a walk away, most of Orre was pure desert. The two looked and informed each other what had they found out.

"Bad news Lillie, we are going to need a ride since the usual rides are not going to be here."

Lillie nodded."Plus most of the areas of Orre are a long distance, there is no quick ride so we are going to have to find a way to get to them."

Elio shook his head at the inconvenience. "Alright so we stick with your plan?"

Taking two poke balls out Elio shouted. "BRIMMY AND REMMER, SMELL THE PLACE YOU ARE GOING TO BE TRAINING IN FOR THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS!"

Out of the two balls comes a large black feline with red stripes and a strange creature with a long nose with a yellow color on top and a brown on the bottom. The Torracat yawned as the Drowzee stretched itself.

Lillie smiled as she took two pokeball's out. "Alright Swoops and Shockums time to stretch!" Out comes a large bird with a red mane and yellow/red tail feathers known as Pidgeotto and a small yellow mouse that was holding a yellow ball known as Pikachu.

Elio winked at Lillie. "I knew you were going to pick that when you asked of ways to make Pikachu good without evolving it."

Lillie smiled. "Shockums was simple because I already had a light ball and the first Pichu I found around Iki town did not seem to mind being captured. The breeding tips you gave me about the destiny knot and the ever stone worked very well. Shockums and Swoops evolved rather quickly together. I was worried when Swoops acted impatient when it hatched. Kind of like how Tally acted when I first caught her. Dafger's came from a construction worker that needed a Ratatta and..."

Elio nodded. "For a pokemon that came out of the first and only egg, Swoops is very good."

Lillie looked at the Pidgeotto in pride as she gave a false scowl toward Elio. "Why did you pick Drowzee?"

Elio smiled and responded. "Because it is an under dog among psychic types. I never got to use it during the island trials and I thought this place would be a good way to bond with it."

"Under dog? HA! That fat thing is hardly that!"

Elio put on a false smile as he turned to the voice. "Excuse me?"

A loitering sailor shouted. "Yeah you heard me! Bet that thing and the little kitty can't beat my guys!"

Elio rolled his eyes at the boasting. "I don't know, Brimmy is meant to be the offense of the duo, while Remmer fulfills the role of a bulky support who exploits shutting the opponent down. Care for a battle?"

The sailor scratched his head over the strange reaction. "Wuh? People normally get mad at that, but yeah I take you on."

VS Sailor Bluts

Bluts sent out a jellyfish with two large red bulb like orbs known as and a tiny gray canine.

Elio stared at what he got himself into before shouting. "Type advantage? BRIMMY FIRE FANG THAT POOCHYENA! REMMER USE HYPNOSIS!"

The Torracats fangs glowed in flame as it lunged at the Poochyena. The Poochyena was burned, but it still attacked, Poochyena used bite. Teeth sank into the Drowzee, it's super effective!

Tentacool used water gun on Torracat, it's super effective! The Drowzee looked at the Tentacool and waved its hands to lure the Tentacool into a deep sleep.

The sailor acted in shock. "Uh oh."

Elio nodded at the situation and continued. "BRIMMY FINISH THE POOCHYENA WITH ANOTHER FIRE FANG! REMMER DREAM EATER IT IS TIME FOR YOUR BREAKFAST!"

The Drowzee inhaled a puffy cloud from the Tentacool, it was super effective and its bite wounds have healed. Tentacool was still asleep as the Poochyena was knocked out. "REMMER DREAM EATER AGAIN FINISH IT!" The Drowzee knocked the Tentacool out cold with its power.

Bluts grumbled. "Grr I thought you be easy."

Elio smiled as the sailor ran. "Yeah you should not have insulted the Remmer."

The Drowzee felt thirsty from the Tentacool's dream of drifting, Elio smiled before facing his attention to the Crab shape bar. "Alright Lillie, your turn to test your duo out on. I am going to get Remmer a cool drink. HEY BRIMMY YOU WANT SOMETHING TOO?"

"Meow" (a water dish).

Elio asked Lillie. "You and your pokemon want anything?"

Lillie shook her head as Elio went towards the crab shaped bar. A less muscular sailor came rushing to where the last one walked from. "Hey little girl, you seen a larger sailor walking around here, picking on some of the locals?"

Lillie pointed where he ran off to, the sailor said thanks. "Hey you mind if we have a quick battle? I need to get these guys ready for when Bluts tries to fight back over NOT doing his job!" Lillie, nodded.

VS Sailor Pops

Pops sent out a muscular lizard known as Machop and a pile of eggs known as Exeggecute.

Lillie shouted as she signal the Pidgetto and Pikachu for battle. "Swoops, Shockums lets do this! Swoops lets start by using air cutter!"

The Pidgetto wings generate wind as it thrusts them forward. Creating wind in form of a blade, slicing into the Machop and Exeggecute.

"Shockums use thunderbolt on that Exeggecute!" The Pikachu's cheeks charged up, the light ball amplifying the electricity to large amounts, zapping the Exeggecute. The Exeggecute stiffen up as it was left paralyzed. Machop used karate chop on Pikachu, it hits.

"Swoops, air cutter again!" Once more a blade wind slices into the two pokemon, knocking them out at the same time!

The sailor cringed. "Okay that was a bad idea. Thank you for the directions anyways, going to give that Bluts a piece of my mind once I get to him." As he walked to the poke center to heal up

Elio walked out of the club during the climax of the battle, with a bottle of water in one hand, a lemonade can in another, followed by a Drowzee drinking from a soda bottle. He liked that both he and Lillie were getting to try out their starters already. "Hey Lillie, good news, while I was at the Krabby club I was able to get some information on where we can get a ride." He set out a bowl for the Torracat. "A mechanic shop on the other end of town can build us a ride, might take a while for it to happen BUT this would be a good opportunity to learn more of this region while we wait."

Lillie smiled. "Might as well since we are not leaving until we defeat all that this region has to offer." Elio nodded in agreement as the duo heads towards the Junk Shop.

The door opens; Elio and Lillie see two mechanics, an old man in a green hat and what looks like his grandson, who is wearing a beanie.

Elio asked. "Excuse me I heard you two can make a type of vehicle to use across Orre."

Both looked at them in both shock and awkwardness. The grandson walked over, introduced himself as Perr and told them. "Its rare that we have someone ask for something like that! We can do the work but we need some parts over at the Pokemon, HQ as well as this lonely lab. Then there is the cost for all of it."

Elio grinned. "Oh cost won't be a problem, if you give us the list we would be more than happy to help."

Perr shook his head. "There is also WHAT you two actually want, we can build scooters, motor bikes and boats."

Elio turned to Lillie, "What you think? Motor bike built for two?"

Lillie nodded. "Yes... but do you want side car or two seat?"

Elio thought for a moment. "Side car."

Lillie thought the reasoning over. "Alright but I get to drive it first."

As she smiled, Elio agreed in a tease. "Fine but don't be startled when it roars."

Lillie blushed, puffed up her cheeks, placed her hands over her hips and made a "grr" sound. The Rotom Dex pointed out the map coordinates for both the lonely lab and the HQ.

Lillie looked at the time. "If we hurry we can be finished with the hard part by the end of the day. Lets start with the HQ! I need to call home to tell everyone we made it."

The duo left the Port in the direction to of the HQ lab, the Rotom Dex flared up. "BZZT! The Orre Region's top research lab, that studies pokemon BZZT!"

Elio asked the dex. "Hey Rotom, could you lay off explaining EVERY new place we go to?"

Rotom talked back. "BZZT I am sorry boss but the PDA download makes me say this stuff whether I want to or not. BZZT!"

As the two argued Lillie shouted back. "Knock it off you two. If this place is what Rotom Dex says it is, then we could use this place as a sort of hub to go back to if we need something. First we need to talk to who ever is in charge." Elio nodded back as they approach, to be greeted by a brown haired scientist. The man who is in charge of the place introduced himself as Professor Krane.

Lillie handed him over a list of motor bike parts. "Excuse me Mr Krane, a mechanic by the name of Perr asked if you had any of these."

The professor nodded, explaining they still have parts of an old motor bike in the lab as he invited them in. The lab itself was exactly as Lillie predicted, a hub that looked and felt convenient. Most of the areas they were allowed to explore as Lillie went with Rotom Dex towards the storage rooms for bike parts.

Elio walked into a room that had what looked a metallic glove. "Hey Krane. I know it is none of my business, but what is this weird glove?"

The professor moved his glasses nervously as he looked over. "That old device is something we have that has not been used in twelve years."

Elio's eyes widen. "For twelve years it looks like it is good condition, what was it used for?"

The professors smile turns grim as he remembered. "It was used to rescue pokemon that were abused by a group of bad people."

Elio's usual smile turned into a frown of astonishment. "Really? How does it work?"

The professor groaned. "It takes any type of ball and turns it into something called a snag ball, an item that has the power to steal pokemon."

Elio blurted out. "Steal pokemon?! What did these people DO to these pokemon to justify such a device?" He had a flash back regarding the things done to Nebby as he asked. "... on second thought don't answer." Elio then asked. "Who used this thing?"

The professor smiled again as he took an old photo; a spiky red haired boy petting a large white, bird like pokemon. "A boy named Michal who was around your age, five years after the incident he and his family moved elsewhere to find more pokemon to help. Before he left he told us to keep these devices around should they be needed. We built a second one of these things a couple months later in case we ever need more on the field."

Elio looked over at the picture of the bird. "I heard of this creature from legends, the Guardian of the Sea... Lugia. A pokemon who lived under the sea due to its wings causing large storms. It also has a pretty cry from what I heard." The boy asked in cringe. "I take it this pokemon was among those that were abused?"

Krane nodded grimly. "Yes more than all the others during that time. If it were not for a machine that we built during that crisis, it would have been beyond saving."

Elio looks at the picture in disbelief, as he tried NOT to ask himself what has happened with these pokemon.

The sound of Lillies voice was enough to snap Elio out of his trance. "Elio! I got some of the parts needed for the bike." Lillie looked curiously over the picture of Lugia that Elio was looking at and shook her head. "I made a phone call home and told them we landed in Orre and that we are getting ready to travel in a couple of weeks. Miss Wicke back at Aether mentioned about Gladion sending some people over here to study poke spots a couple months ago. Most of Orre does not have many wild pokemon save for those areas, if we are going to build are team's we are probably stuck with what they give or use a P.C if we need to actually bring our pokemon over."

Elio looked in disappointment. "Not like limited options would stop us. We brought some decent enough pokemon coming in SO we will be in for a challenge regardless."

Lillie looked at Elio teasingly. "For the remaining bike parts we are going to have to go to some guy named Kahminko. He usually has left over parts from his inventions." As Lillie cringed from being told on how faulty they were. "He is also not very friendly towards visitors and that we are going to have to deal with his assistant if we have any hope of talking to him."

Elio grinned. "So I be the muscle and you be the voice?" Lillie grinned mischievously. Yes!

The duo traveled towards what looks like a dark cloudy house. First thing that greeted them was a statue of Groudon followed by a house with two electrical rods. This was definitely not a pleasant place to visit.

As they approached the door to knock, a small lab assistant shouts from behind. "Halt burglars!"

Elio shouted back. "We were only knocking... and were about to ask!"

The little man did not listen, "Don't play dumb. Chobin knows you were after the Dr's latest invention!"

Elio rolled his eyes. "Look like this is where a battle starts."

The assistant was annoyed as he tossed out a walking sunflower.

Elio responded back. "Yep I was right. BRIMMY LETS KICK HIS BUTT!" Out comes a Torracat, "BRIMMY FIRE FANG!"

The Sunflora did not even get the chance to move as fiery fangs bite into it and tossed it aside.

"But how?"

Ding dong!

Lillie presses a door bell.

A voice said over a speaker "Who is it?"

Lillie responded. "Some travelers looking for some remaining bike parts."

The voice paused for a moment before responding. "Huh, did Makan and Perr send you? Chobin, let these two in. Point where the parts are!"

The little assistant opened the door for them. "Do not think you will get away with this. The Dr. is very busy and he does not like having thieves in his house!"

Elio glared at him. "Don't worry we will be gone before long." They found the remaining parts needed, with Elio carrying the largest most heaviest part.

Upon returning to the Junk Shop Lillie shouted out as Elio carried the rather large engine piece "We are back with all the parts!"

Perr looked in astonishment. "Wow that was fast, alright put them on the desk and we can get it taken care of."

Elio huffed and panted as he placed it on the desk. "Okay how much is this going to cost? Huh, 50,000 pokedollars?" Elio looked towards the engine tired. "In comparison to all that lifting this is nothing to me."

Lillie looked back towards Perr. "So when are we expected for this to get ready?" The Mechanic sized the two up, around two weeks.

Elio laughed. "Two weeks? Still give us three months tops afterwards." The boy turned toward Lillie. "So what do you want to do during this time?"

Lillie smiled, "Explore the port and help the people out at the H.Q if needed." Elio nodded. "Hey you want to go to the top of the lighthouse? Been a good first day and want to see the sun off."

Lillie said "Yes." both blushed as they realized what was asked and what was agreed to.
