PGC filer;

Lightning and Hope are gone, which leaves us without leaders. That also cuts our numbers down to ten.

So, my question for your guys is "what next?" I don't think we should disband; just a quick look at the network will show that goons like Cobra are still at large. Still, we're gonna need some structural changes. New leaders, possibly new squads, and, more importantly, new members.

I guess I just want to know what you think. I don't know every one of you personally, but the PGC is supposed to be a team, so everyone should have a chance at giving feedback. I think if we sort out our strengths and weaknesses, that could help us with restructuring. It might be better to have multiple leaders so that if anyone disappears, there's people to fall back on. Maybe each squad can have one, beats me.

I'm gonna throw up an anonymous message in a sec to see about gathering newbies, though. If you've got friends you'd like to recommend, might as well bring them up now.

[Shortly after the PGC message pops up, a second message appears:]

Anonymous;

What does this world mean to you? Do you think it's something worth protecting, or would you rather sit on the sidelines and watch it burn? This place is more than sunshine and Pokémon battles. If given the choice to make a difference, would you take it?

[He remembers Lightning doing something like this before. He'll just have to keep his fingers crossed that it works.]

Looks like she already has. Your timing couldn't be better.

[He takes a second to read over Ren's info. So Cobra is up to something big... That explains his recent posts. But if that's the case, don't they need to stay alert? Especially if there's an Explosion TM getting passed around.]

Do you know if the explosion TM Is reusable? If it is, then we're in serious trouble. A lot of Pokémon can learn explosion, and it'd be easy to fill a whole team with living bombs.

If you want to make a list, then by all means, go for it. Sora and I are in Celadon right now, so it shouldn't be too hard to touch base.

Haha. I hoped she'd do that.

I'm afraid so. I doubt he'd make a post about it just because he bought one regular TM. This world seems to have a sucky sense of humor for giving him that.

I'll get onto it, then. Since we're in the same city, I can get it to you pretty easily once I'm done.

Ugh. Who even thought making Explosion TMs was a good idea in the first place?

You're welcome to swing on by when you're done; I don't mind. Or you could just give me a call, too.

[saxsongs]

I'd really like to know that as well.

I'll most likely swing by. Talking about information like that is more safe face to face than over gears, no matter how good the security lines are.

Well, if it's any consolation, I've got a reusable Earthquake TM, and I wouldn't mind outfitting people's Pokémon with the move.

And I agree. Private filters are a start, but we can hash out the rest in the flesh.

That sounds convenient. Speaking of TM's I actually have a reusable Ice Beam, so it should prove useful as well.

Heh, not bad. That'll make dealing with dragon and ground types easier, and those things hit hard.

[saxsongs]

Yeah. There aren't really many counters for dragon-types, so I'm happy with what I got.
