[Ahh, Route 1.

Lovely, scenic Route 1.

Kirino's Pokémon (his Swablu, and a recently acquired Milotic) are both out to enjoy the lovely weather, and Kirino...

... is currently being harassed by a small army of ghost-types. There's a good number of Shuppets about as well as a Misdreavus that's taken a liking to yanking on his pigtails.

Kirino really, really just looks like he's resigned himself to all this, however, rather than panicking and flailing and trying to drive them away like he was a few minutes ago.]

You've got to be kidding m--OW! [Stupid Misdreavus.]

[Oh, that's a... cute little teruterubouzu thing. Can it control the weather? Tenma and Gracia are about to get ready for a fight... when the Shuppet they're looking at passes right by them. Uhh.

He follows the ghost-type to see what has its attention, only to see-]

Kirino!? [Why are you being mobbed by evil floaty critters?]

[doingthemistything]

[Kirino raises a hand to wave, but immediately gets distracted by the Misdreavus pulling on his hair again. He tries to swat it way, but to no avail.]

[risingstars]

[Ow. That looks like it hurt. Tenma winces in sympathy. Gracia, meanwhile, is unable to understand the pain of having one's hair yanked on, because his is made of fire.]

Are you okay? ...Do you want some help?

[doingthemistything]

I think I've got it... [Or at least, Alto and Constance do.]

[risingstars]

[I-if you say so, dude... Tenma will just stand around over here and try not to be in the way, then.]

Why are they all crowding around you?
