[Network/Video - New Bark Town]

[When she woke, she felt... healthier than she ever had. At first she thought the tea she made for herself the night before maybe had some kind of effect on her, but as she stirs awake, she realizes she's no longer in her room at Brightcliffe.

... She's in a house.

Not her house.

Not her stuff.

As the weirdness and panic sets in, she keeps herself calm on the outside. She rustles through items she thinks were left out her for, including one Pokegear. It turns on after some fiddling, and her face appears on the screen.]

... What is this thing? A small computer? I just - ah!

[Something small and pink disappears behind her bed, she picks up an empty Pokeball and instinctively throws it at the small creature. Not to catch it, but because it's small, weird, and pink and she doesn't know what it is.]

I am not in the mood for this!

[Random Route]

[Once she gets her situation explained to her, she... doesn't quite believe this isn't some kind of heavily medicated dream. But she's walking through a forest, and the creatures here are well, pretty amazing. She's not sure about the whole catching and battling thing, but being able to be out here and enjoying nature? She'll take it.

She looks down at the Happiny trailing behind her.]

This is a really nice place, huh? ... Sorry I threw at Pokeball at you earlier.

[The Happiny just bounces happily in response. No hard feelings. As Ilonka keeps walking, she sees someone up ahead.]

Oh uh, hey!
