Well, we left Vermillion City several days ago and we should be hitting Jizo City in just a little while. Boy, there sure are a lot of Pokemon trainers on this boat. I mean, I don't know any of them, so I guess I'll give the ones I can see nicknames so I can identify them later.
I'll call you...Muscles Glasses! You know, because he has muscles and glasses.
And I'll call you...Mr. Squinty! I just hope he doesn't open his eyes, or I'd have to change his name.
Everyone seems to really like this guy, so I'll call him...Capey! That's a very nice cape--
Oh no, there's another person with a cape! I guess I'll call him...Shuttlecock? Because...he looks like one?
For some reason, I don't really like this kid. Call it a hunch, but it's just something about him that puts me off. I kind of want to call him something offensive, but that's a little harsh, since I don't know the kid. I guess I'll just call him Gary and leave it at that for now.
We've arrived in Cythos. The "celebrity trainers" who will be competing in the World Tournament will be staying aboard while the other passengers disembark. I guess that means I'm going ashore.
No sooner do I walk into the boathouse do I see a battle break out between two kids.
I...I don't...what is that thing? What is that thing? What is that thing?! I mean, I don't know all 150 Pokemon by heart, but I've never seen that Pokemon in Kanto. Wow...I guess there's a lot I have to--
What...what is that thing? I seriously need to pick up a Pokedex when I find the first Poke-Mart.
So these two trainers duked it out with Pointy and Oreo-Face, and, for the most part, it was fairly uneventful...until Oreo-Face opened up a fissure in the earth and practically destroyed the boathouse. You see, this is why children shouldn't be allowed to train Pokemon: they have no consideration for public property.
Ah, the Jizo Poke-Mart! I can buy Poke Balls and a Pokedex and--
Oh...you've run out of Poke Balls and the only way to get a Pokedex is to reserve one for when the next shipment comes in. Well...okay...what should I get then?
Hmm...well, I don't know the region at all, so I guess I'll take a Town Map...and a Potion might be useful...oh, and some Running Shoes; I'll probably be walking a lot, so my work boots aren't going to cut it.
Okay, the total bill is...$2300?!? Wow...uh, okay. I've only got $700 left to my name, but I think I'm pretty set to start my journey. Let's see where my next stop is on my new Town Map:
I...can't...quite...put my finger on it...but...I think...I think I may have just gotten screwed over by the Poke-Mart.
