The old man who wore the eccentric clothes sensed some eyes directed towards him. His unique attire has always been something which attracted the eyes of the tourist visiting the Happy island.
He just looks up to see the people looking at him, smiles and then continues ahead on his path, yet today he didn't walk away after glancing at the group of three boys and four girls walking towards him.
For he felt something from the black haired boy who was in blue T shirt and brown Capri pants with a straw hat on his head. This boy is Alex Bart. This new attire is something that the two girls, namely Elsa and Aurea under the guidance of future fashion model Elesa decided for Alex, without his consent.
The old man felt the hidden energy in the boy. The boy seem to have a very big energy reserve, although not on his level but still much greater than people his age. From the gaze he felt from that boy, he too sensed his energy.
The girl in peach sundress with sunglasses in her eyes and wavy silvery blonde hair also has energy in her body. He felt subtle coldness from her, confirming her powers are ice related in contrast to the fighting type Pokemon aura energy in Alex.
The old man noticed the group also have some powerful Pokemons. Although he cannot sense the energy of Pokemon like he can with humans, he can still say that they are well raised, healthy and strong from their appearance.
Elesa has an emolga on her shoulder, Skyla has sent out her Murkrow with Aurea having her Minccino while
Princess Elsa from Almia has a teddiursa she win in the lottery in the cruise ship.
Emolga is a white, rodent-like Pokémon resembling a flying squirrel. It has black eyes, a tiny nose, and yellow cheek patches. It can create electricity on the electric sacs located on its cheeks and store electricity inside its membranes.
Its ears, positioned at the top of its head, are rounded in shape and black in coloration, with yellow and white sections of coloration in the inside of its ears. It sports a vaguely hood-like patterning of black around its head, with a spiky extension of the pattern above its face.
It has yellow winglike flaps connected to its three-fingered arms. Its feet are white and fairly small and its black tail is in a jagged shape.
Meanwhile Minccino is a furry, gray chinchilla-like Pokémon with scruffs of fur on its head and neck. It has large ears on the sides of its head with red insides partly covered by tufts of fur.
It has large, brown eyes and a small, dot-like nose. Its limbs are somewhat rounded and small, and its ears and tail have white tips. The tail is also long and particularly furry.
Alex and Minccino did not seem to like each other much. Because of Alex way of life, he isn't always clean but with Minccino being obsessed with cleanliness there are often conflict between the two with the girls siding with Minccino and he giving a triumphant look to Alex.
Of course Alex wants to beat down the chinchilla Pokemon but he holds back.
Alex has Pikachu and Swablu with Espeon and Mew in Eevee form beside them. Bill himself has an Eevee while Julius has his luxio, the evolved form of Shinx walking side by side.
He can feel that the Espeon and Eevee ( Mew) are stronger ones in the group. It is not that others aren't powerful, but they aren't capable of holding the stance against these two, he infereed
The old man would have walked away if not for the confidence he had on himself and not sending any hostility from the boy.
When they arrived in front of him, he happily greeted with a smile on his face, "Good morning."
They replied back with a good morning to the older man.
The older man transversed his eyes the the group though it settled on Elsa and Alex for a few moments longer than rest which didn't go unnoticed by Alex.
" Is their anything I can help you?" The older man inquired the group.
The group did not reply back but turns to look at Alex who made them follow him to the eccentrically dressed older man.
Alex didn't bother to look at them and said," Hello, I am Alex Bart from Floral town in Kanto. I came to Happy island today in a cruise ship with my friends here.
I heard some stories about this island and Your clothes seem interesting. They are similar to the Pokemon whose rumour is related to this Pokemon."
The older man seem to be greatly surprised by the words of the young man in front of him, though he didn't reveal it on his face.
Although the rumour are just fabled stories most of the time, some tour and legend hold some truth to themselves.
Similar is the case regarding the ones about the Happy Island. If it was any normal person or tourist who asked him that question he wouldn't be as shocked as now, but the fact that this young man asked him about it directly without any shred of doubt regarding the legends makes him feel that the boy do know about his connection to it.
Before the old man can ask what he really mean by those words, Elesa who was in a black non sleeves shirt and white shorts asked him," What rumour are you taking about Alex?"
Alex looks at everyone in the group. Except for Bill, who knows just how excited Alex was about the trip to this island none of them know anything special about it.
" The legends and rumour I talk about are related to the egg shaped spike ball Pokemon, Togepi." Alex told them.
" Togepi? Isn't it a very rare Pokemon?" Aurea asked and amazed that this island may hold some secret regarding the rare Pokemon.
" Are they really that rare?" Elsa turns to Aurea asked her.
" Rare? They are like super rare. Pseudo legendary Pokemons are rare pokemons, Pokemons like Togepi, Zorua and Clefairy are known as super rare Pokemons.
Although they aren't as powerful as pseudo legendary they are still strong after their evolution. The fact that Togepi can be affected by people and pokemons around themselves and after evolution can affect others is something which makes them yearned by many." Bill explained it to her.
The older man looks at Bill and said," It seems like you know a lot about them."
" Of course, when Alex told me earlier that we will be going for Togepi exploration once we land on Happy Island, I made sure to research on them.
Oh by the way I am Bill Montenegro from Saffron City in Kanto." Bill introduced himself. Unlike Alex who changed his attire, Bill still wore his green suit without any change.
Only the girls face changes their clothes, Elsa in her peach sundress, Elesa in her Black sleeveless shirt and white shorts while Aurea wore a white sleeveless shirt with brown shorts.
Meanwhile Skyla was in her sky blue sundress like Elsa.
Following Bill others too introduced themselves.
" I am Elsa Reid from the Almia City."
" I am Julius from Almia City."
" I am Aurea Juniper from Nuvema City in Unova. "
" I am Elesa from Nimbasa City In Unova."
" I am Skyla from Mistralton City In Unova."
After their introduction, The older man with a long grey beard introduced himself, " Hello I am August. And, Happy town is my home town. This place is the place which my ancestors have resided for generations too. And it seems young Alex know about me. "
When August introduced himself, Alex eyes widened on hearing his name.
After hearing this the group turns to Alex who stood their with wide eyes,"You are a former Kanto elite Four member." He revealed it to them.
" WHAT?" the group shouted out at the shrieking revelation.
