Stella looked a bit nervous. That just had to be the gym leader. Though Stella had always been good at communicating with pokemon, and was a good communicator with people if the situation was dire, she didn't feel exactly comfortable confronting this leader. She was terrifying, after all. She looked to be unrealistically harsh to what looked to be her students. Stella would just come back. She wouldn't mind seeing the Dragon Den, after all...

 

As Stella was just about to turn around, one of the pokeballs in her bag opened, and an orange pokemon appeared on the floor. It let out a loud "Karp karp!" and flopped around on the floor. Magikarp probably hadn't even made any noises since she had caught it, let alone escape from it's pokeball. It looked happy, but it was rather embarrassing to have such an awful pokemon in one's party. The girl quickly returned it, and sighed in frustration. Now this leader would totally think her to be terribly weak.

The clefairy simply shook its head in disapproval. "C'mon, mon amie. Do not be like that. Al seems like a nice guy... for the most part. What's the harm in befriending him? Hmm?"

 The Sprout Tower was burning!

 

Bells began to ring throughout the city as the alarm started to spread, thick columns of black smoke starting to rise from the tower.  Most of the town's population starts to run trying to get distance between themselves and the tower, in order to get out of the way of burning debris, while authorities start moving in with various water types attempting to fight the fire.
