[Is Johto ready? Because there are two ladies on the gear today, situated in a very familiar place. The first girl, a young brunette, is staring down into the camera. She’s figured it out already. The second girl sits behind her on the porch of mom’s house, staring down at her own Pokégear. She has blue hair, and she presses a button every ten seconds or so, very slowly. She has no idea how it works. She’s the first to speak up.]

Are you sure this is a telephone, Futami-san?

Ne, Chihaya-oneechan! Ami knows it’s a phone, and more! It’s the key to our success!

[Chihaya stares down at her gear some more, then slowly looks up at Ami.] The key...? Is this supposed to unlock something, too? [Ami does a sagelike nod, as if she had all the answers already. In truth, she’s pretty much just improvising.] It’s our main menu! It’s necessary on our epic travels. Without it, how will we get cute alternate outfits?

What are you talking about...? [Her voice trails off as she reaches for her bag. Resting on top of it is a ridiculous pink raincoat. It doesn’t look like something Chihaya would usually wear.] Are you talking about this? [There are even boots.]

Ufufufu~ Of course that’s what Ami’s talking about! [Actually, it just kind of worked out conveniently.] Take a look at Ami’s! Super Sexy Style! [Ami fumbles into her own bag, whipping out a children’s play outfit, complete with a yellow hardhat.] E-Eh?! This isn’t sexy at all!

[Chihaya can’t help but snicker a little at that, quietly. Behind her hand.] I don’t think either of these outfits are very suitable, Futami-san...

No fair! Now Ami looks unsexy for the camera![Ami places her hands to her head, shaking it around indignantly.]

[Wait, what. Chihaya looks up at her, a bit horrified.] E-eh? Your phone is filming, Futami-san? P-please, turn it off! Does this thing even have a camera in it...?

Geez, Chihaya-oneechan, Ami didn’t know you were so bashful! It makes me wonder how you’ll react when you find the camera in your dressing room.. [And, with a mischievous cackle and one more horrified look from Chihaya, the feed ends. The cackle, however, lives on forever into eternity. ...Of course, the cackle might nearby for some. Ami and Chihaya are in New Bark Town. Ami can be found exploring the area around Chihaya with her Mime Jr., whereas Chihaya can be found seated in one place, trying to figure out her Pokégear while a Minun sleeps on her lap.. She’s not going to ask for help, but both are free to be bothered!]

[Oh. Now he gets it. Ryo knows that it's beneficial in pretending to be a girl, but still. Not being manly is suffering.]

That... sort of thing, huh...

[Maybe it's time he change the subject, before the rest of his fragile ego gets bruised.]

Anyway, Ami-chan, you and Chihaya-san are in New Bark Town, right? I'm looking around the outskirts right now, but I think Makoto-san should still be in town!

[He's... totally really not training. Nope.]

We've already had our fateful encounter with Makorin! Maybe Ami and the others can catch up and travel together?

[ It'd be a lot more fun with someone closer to her age! Chihaya was so serious, and Makoto was fun, but an old bat! ]

[NO WHAT IF HE NEEDS TO USE THE BUSHES OR TAKE A BATH OR SOMETHING---

But... It would be really suspicious if he declined, wouldn't it? Plus, traveling alone was even more threatening in a different sense. Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.]

Eh... Th-That sounds like a great idea! I'm not that far out, so I'll probably head back soon. I don't want Ralts getting tired, after all...

[He'll find a way to keep them from finding out he's a guy... Somehow. He's already got this far without Ai or Eri knowing, so it has to be possible.]

Onee-chan's partner is Ralts-san, eh? Ami just hopes it's a valiant enough of a knight to protect the frail princess Ryo-chan!

[ Ami: destroyer of souls even unintentionally. ]

[SOULCRUSHED. He's not really frail... Is he? Ugh, he can't let this get to him! He'll build a really strong team of cool Pokémon and prove his manliness one day!

That's his plan, anyway. He's not sure what else to do.]

He's doing pretty well, actually! Ralts is really cool and strong. [Ralts are totally not cute like Makoto thinks they are!! THEY ARE COOL AND MANLY.]

He better! Once we get to the real fighty-fighties for the badges, it'll be Crunch Time! Hopefully Ralts-san isn't a frosty type, or he won't be able to handle the heat!

[ yes she made a pun. But really, an ice type would be useful for the first gym. Really, she was trying to make a metaphor for how much more difficult the gym bosses were than the wild ones. ]

[This girl is harder to understand more than Eri. Translating... Please wait...

Okay. He thinks he's got the gist of it.]

Oh, is Ami-chan going to challenge the gyms too...?

That's what Ami said, isn't it?

[ a wink. ]

What about Onee-chan? Are you gonna do it, too?

[O-Oh... Well, Ami actually does seem like she knows what she's doing, so Ryo can't really doubt it.]

Y-Yeah, I'm planning on it. [To prove his manliness.] It seems really fun, and it looks like Ralts enjoys battling. Is... that strange?
