“forever and I knew Ash didn't move that fast.  "Pi-Pika?" I moved a little closer toward where the sounds and colors came from. A few streaks of lightning snaked from my toes.  "Squirt!" The colorful streak was suddenly there again and then knocked me over.  "Hey dude! I haven't seen you in so long! The whole crew has been asking for you, even Salamander and you know he's a hothead most of the time." Turtle crawled off of me, popping back onto his feet and smiling. He was always the nicest out of my friends. He wasn't as sunny as Bulba but he was cool, sometimes a little too wet for my liking though. I jumped to return his hug, seemed to shock him a bit.  "I've missed you, Squirt! I have so much to tell you. Where are the rest of the guys? Have you been caught? What are you doing this far away from home?”

“Ash is alright, I guess.  Like, we've been together for a while now, ever since he trapped me in this weird ball prison, I have been forgiving. The day he caught me, I was minding my own business, hanging out with Bulba, Salamander and the others. When all of a sudden I was inside of some round cage. I tried to get out with a few shock zaps here and there but the thing wouldn't budge. So, I waited. And waited. And waited. I just miss my friends.  But something cool happened today. I saw Squirt the wimpy Turtle.  I haven't seen him in forever, at least it had felt like that. Ash had let me out to stretch my legs and grab a couple of berries for a snack and naturally, I wondered off a bit. Sudden rustling behind me was immediately followed by a streak of sky blue and green.  "Pika?" I was super nervous.”
