About the whole Blue/Gary thing; I fixed it.
"Are there enough trainers around to protect the ships while we're here?"
"There are enough around, and this shouldn't take too long."
"Ok, so where are we going to go? Steven, do you have any ideas?"
"We should see what locations are safe first."
"Ok, let's see... We've got Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and the Sevii Islands to which we can go. The last one isn't an option though because they can't handle such a great amount of people there."
"We know that Kanto, Johto and Sinnoh are under attack right now. We're still trying to contact Hoenn but there's something wrong with the connection."
"Ok, let's say the S.S. Aqua goes to Sinnoh. That would mean it'd go past Kanto too, so anyone who would go to Kanto or Sinnoh should get on that ship. Which places in Kanto are still safe? Also, where'd Blue go?"
"You know that's just his nickname right? He left to check on Viridian city a little while ago."
"Are you going to place marks on a map or something? I can't see anything because a stupid Tentacool sprayed Acid in my eyes. Luckily Seviper smashed that thing, and my eyesight should return in about 10 hours though."
"I was wondering about why you were wearing sunglasses inside."
"Err, we'll make a list and double check everything later Lucy."
"Ok."
"Dan, you said the virus was 'stolen' from Silph Co. right?"
"Yup, so we scrap Saffron."
"Remove Lavender, Cerulean, Celadon and Vermillion while you're at it too."
"If we factor in Digletts cave Pewter, which would be safe otherwise, can be marked red too, along with Viridian and Pallet."
"What about Fuscia?"
"Might be safe. I'm sure Cinnabar is still clean being an island and everything."
"So that's all the safe places in Kanto?"
"Probably. It's not like we can reach the Indigo Plateau."
"What about Johto?"
"Cianwood is on the way to Hoenn right? Same situation as Cinnabar I guess..."
"Azelea is protected by the Ilex Forest and Union Cave."
"Blackthorn should be fine. The only ways to reach it is trough the Ice Patch and Dark Cave, or going uphill from New Bark. That and they have Dragons Den and a lot of strong trainers there. No idea on how to get there without running into trouble though."
"Olivine, Ecruteak, Goldenrod, Violet, Cherrygrove and New Bark aren't blocked off by anything. Mt. Mortar does have a patch that goes right to Mahogany."
"Cianwood, Azelea and Blackthorn for Johto?"
"I'll mark them blue."
"Mark Fuscia green instead of blue, it's pretty exposed."
"Ok. What about Sinnoh?"
"The Battle Island has been attacked in a way like Olivine has. I could imagine Snowpoint being safe, but there's a boat to the Battle Island from there, so maybe some zombies got on. It only takes one to create a chaotic situation."
"Celestic is like Blackthorn. The rest is easy to reach."
"The Pokémon League island isn't."
"Hardly anyone has acces to that place."
"True."
"Snowpoint and Celestic for Sinnoh. Dan can yo- Where'd he go?"
"I don't know, he was here a few seconds ago."
"Should we look for him?"
"He did have the red marker."
"I have one here, you mark them."
"I suck at that, I always messed up with coloring when I was young."
"Oh hey there you are."
"Sorry I dissapeared so suddenly, but I wanted to check if there weren't any trainers slacking off."
"What about Hoenn?"
"We won't know until we get a stable connection."
"If there's more groups of Tentacool like the one we fought Pacifidlog is done for."
"Mossdeep, Ever Grande and Sootopolis should be safe."
"So should Fortree and Lavaridge."
"Don't forget Dewford."
"Our Battle Frontier is being rebuilt so that should be safe too."
"If you happen to run into Mirage Island that'd be a great spot too."
"Too bad the chance of finding that place is less than Steven not talking about stones."
"I'm not talking about stones now, am I?"
"Yup, and there's no way those two things can happen after so close after eachother."
"So how many places do we have?"
"12."
"We'll have each passenger choose to which of those they want to go, and then we split up I guess."
"Where are you guys going?"
"I'm not really going anywhere right now, not being able to see and everything. But I guess I'm going back to Hoenn. You Noland?"
"I want to catch a Wobuffet. So I'll leave at Cherrygrove. I believe someone I'm looking for should be around the Dark Cave area too."
"I'll go back to my house in Mossdeep."
"I'm going to check if my gym in Fortree is still there."
After everyone else had said where they we're going to go, Dan, whose Trainer Rank was raised to the same level as that of a member of the Elite 4 (Top Trainer at the Trainer Tower wasn't that much of an important job), was asked where he would go.
"I'm going to Saffron."
"Why, the zombie outbreak started there. Sure, they could've abandonned the place after being done with it, but they also could've made it their, err, capital city?"
"I want to know how all this started, what Silph was working on, and who was behind that attack, because they killed a lot of people an Pokémon. Oh, and they ruined my vacation."
"So you're going to Vermillion?"
"I'm going to Chrono Island first, I have a Pokémon there I need to have with me when I go to Saffron. I guess I'll go with the Seagallop, then I can be in Vermillion in 18 hours from now."
"Good luck everyone."
"Good luck."
"I'll be back in about half an hour."
"Ok, it's not like I'm in a hurry. I'll be in the meadow for a bit."
"Weaaavile!"
"You're probably wondering why I'm picking you up already?"
"Weav!"
"I need your help. Sorry that you only got 1 day off."
Chief joined the team!
"Ok, I'm ready to go."
"Are you sure you want to go there?"
"I've got 5 strong Pokémon with me. I should do fine."
"We'll be there soon enough."
*sigh* "I know..."
