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.]

I don't know much about that, just that I have a lot of people that I care for here. Some of those people made this place feel a lot like home to me when I was alone, so...if there was some way to help, I'd do it.

[Hey look! He's not anon-- mostly because it's filtered and he's spoken with Maka before.]

Would you believe me if I told you there was a way? It's been kind of low key, but there's a group of us who've been fighting the Rockets for more than a year.

[Oh hey! She knows this guy.]

Really? That's so cool! [Of course she believes him, why would she not?] How many of you are there? Are you recruiting?

We just got a significant dent in our numbers; we're down to ten, and that's exactly why we're recruiting.

So, if you're in, could you tell me real quick what your strengths and weaknesses are? That'll help us get all our newbies sorted out quicker.

I'm good with hand to hand combat and various weapons as well as research and getting to places, my Pokemon are pretty strong too. I'm not so good at using technology...and if something needs to be done, I can't say that I won't do everything to get it done.

Whatever the case, I'll do my best and I wouldn't put anyone else in jeopardy.

[Hey, he said strengths and weaknesses.]

Sounds like just what we need. Don't know if you've met Tenten, but she's a weapons expert, too, and she's just been added to the roster. Maybe you two could collaborate at some point.

I'll go ahead and pass the info onto her as well; she's gonna help us with organizing squads once we get a feel for all the new recruits.

I've gotten eggs from her a couple of times, I had absolutely no idea. But I can do that! I'm pretty good at working with others, I was part of a squad of three back in my world.

Whenever you guys are ready, I'll be ready too.

Cool. As far as meeting places go, there any spots that work best for you? My biggest concern's choosing a location that's covert. A large gathering of trainers could attract unwanted attention if we're not too careful.

I'm in Celadon right now, but I've been thinking of taking a break on the traveling thing and going back to Olivine. Maybe at the Lighthouse?

I actually live in Celadon, but if you really want to go, getting to Olivine shouldn't be an issue. Gotta meet somebody in Mahogany, anyway.

You guys live here? Sora never told me that, that goof! I guess he didn't want me coming by for a visit.

I'm the guy who runs the Training Center. Of course we live here. Sure beats paying hotel bills.

It does get to be a lot after a while, but since you two are here maybe I'll hold off on leaving Kanto for now. Hard luck for Sora, I'm going to give him a swat for not telling me that you live here when I come to visit.

Just don't be too hard on him. Sora's not exactly the brightest bulb; he probably had about a million other thoughts buzzing through his head that it just never dawned on him.

I already guessed that a loooong time ago. But if you insist, I won't punish him too badly.

[She wouldn't actually give him a hard time about not mentioning where he lived, it wasn't as though it came up in conversation at all.]
