[The video feed opens to a close-up of a Pikachu's face, who turned the Pokegear on in the first place. Behind the Pikachu is Luke, who has his back faced to the Pokegear as he's busy packing. While Luke's distracted, the Pikachu takes it upon himself to figure out what the Pokegear does by pushing random buttons. So anyone who's paying attention will get this text message:]

[The Pikachu has no idea what he just said, but hopefully someone would understand him right? Meanwhile, Luke's busy talking to himself.]

Let's see if I have everything I need here...um, clean clothes, toothbrush...oh! I almost forgot my puzzle book! I can't leave that behind. Ah, am I forgetting anything? Gosh, I haven't traveled for a while now.

[Something rolls out of Luke's backpack, a green stone with a lighting bolt shape inside of it. The Pikachu lifts his head, and curiously runs over to inspect it.]

Ah, Soul! Wait! Don't touch-!

[But as soon as Soul goes over to inspect it, the room lights up as his Pikachu starts evolving. When the light dies down, Soul the Pikachu isn't quite a Pikachu anymore.

]

Oh wow...you've gotten so big!

Raichu!

No wait, I didn't mean that as an insult! It's cool-looking, really! I guess we'll really be ready for these next few gyms now that you've gone and evolved.

[And as Luke heads over to his bed, that's when he notices the Pokegear is running.]

Eh? How long has this thing been on anyway? Anyway, I guess I should've mentioned this sooner but I'm going to be leaving on a trip soon to earn more badges. I'm not sure how many I have left to get, but I think I still need to get the ones from Azalea, Blackthorn, and Mahogany. Anyone got any tips for taking on these gyms?

I'm setting out first thing tomorrow. It should be quite the adventure!

...Also, I suppose I should apologize for how I behaved the last time I spoke on the Pokegear. It wasn't a very gentlemanly way to behave.

[What is this. Hibiki's never seen an evolution before.]

W-what was that? How'd he get so big all of a sudden?

Oh! That's evolution. It doesn't work the same why evolution would normally work, instead here it-

[...Wait a second. He knows that voice.]

...Hibiki?! I-is that you?

So that's an evolution! That looks pretty cool! I wonder if mine's gonna evolve!

[And!] Mm! That's me! There's a lot of people here who recognize me. Are you a fan of 765Pro, too?

What's 765Pro? Hibiki, it's me Luke! Don't you remember? You saved me from a wild bear once!

It's our company! We've got a lot of fans here already for some reason, and...

...

What did you say I did?! I think I'd remember doing somethin' like that!

[First it was a Pikachu - they bring back so many memories from her last time in this world, really. And then it's a Raichu. No questions about that, she knows much about evolution stuff, thanks to being here before. Winry is just watching the mouse and giving it an admiring look.]

Heeeeh, a Raichu. It's been a while since I saw one. Might even be the first one I see after coming back to this world. Congrats!

[And sure, she's going through a nostalgia trip inside her head, but she's still all smiles on the video. They're great memories, okay okay.]

Ah, thank you! This is the first time I've seen a Raichu. He's pretty neat-looking, even if he is bigger now.

[Soul gives an indignant "Rai!" at Luke's last comment.]

Wow, first time - I guess you were planning to let him evolve since you had the stone? [It may not have gone as planned, but hey, evolution is evolution.] He's very neat-looking! I was tempted to evolve a Pikachu long time ago, but... [Shrug.] And maybe he'll get used to his new size soon. It's cool, but growing bigger all of a sudden must be surprising.

Hauu...

[ Rena stares at the screen intently, she tuned in to look at the other's Pikachu, but she didn't realize she would be seeing how a Pikachu evolves. ]

So that's Pichy's next evolution huh...

[ Said Pikachu pops into the screen and stares questionably at the Raichu. ]

Looks like it! I know some Pokemon evolve with stones, but I didn't know a Pikachu was one of them.

[Soul spots the Pikachu and waves back cheerfully.]

Well either way, it's new to Rena. Thanks for the new information! I'll be sure to keep a look out for any stones.

[ Pichy smiles and waves back, but is still confused. ]
