Okay-- OKAY, OKAY, hang on, I got it!

All right, get back.

_{[The sound of big reptilian feet plodding backwards through wet sand can be heard as the camera shows a wobbly view of.... Sunny the Togekiss standing on an appropriately sunny Cianwood beach. The water's lapping at the shore, the sky is bright blue, it's totally beautiful.]

[A PERFECT day to test out the new, hard-earned skill gotten from beating Chuck in a furious fist-fight (and some obligatory after-battle arm-wrestling): Fly.]

[Perched precariously on the back of the big white marshmallow-bird is Heather, kneeling and holding onto the thick white plumage with both hands. She's got a determined expression.]}

Okay. Let's give it a try. I-- no, Dad, it's gonna be FINE, that's why I'm practicing on the BEACH, remember? Sand is soft!

OKAY.

Ready, girl?

Let's-- oh shit aw HELL--

_{[With some gentle but powerful WHOMPS, the Togekiss had begun to serenely flap its pillowy wings and take off. ... Without Heather, because Heather has no idea how the hell to ride a flying thing and was promptly jostled off by the wing motion.]

[Touching down again, Sunny trills and lovingly sits upon the face-down Heather like any caring bird mother might with a stupid bird baby that crash-landed after trying to fly.]}

... Okay.

This could take a little practice.

I did hang on! Not my fault these feathers come out so easily and I have no idea where her actual body is!

Got anything to ride on that isn't a flying marshmallow?

I've got a much smaller owl and a crow roughly the size and shape of a football.

Not exactly great flying candidates.

So you're pretty much boned.

Tell you what: if Buster nets me some eggs, I could hook you up with a dragon.

... A dragon, huh?

_{[SHE'S LISTENING.]}

Yeah. Come on, you've seen Buster before.

Buster?

Last time I saw him, I'm not sure I remember wings bein' on him.

Did he evolve?

You really haven't seen him?

[Nero looks off-camera for a second, whistling. Soon enough, something enormous comes rumbling over, and the camera shifts to show off the burly, spiked Salamence body, two large wings tucked in tight.]

Say hi, Buster.

[Buster leans right in close, whuffing pleasantly at the screen. HI MISS HEATHER HOW ARE YOU TODAY, MY YOU LOOK LOVELY.]

--whoa.

He got HUGE!

_{[HI BUSTER. WHAT A GOOD GIANT DRAGON.]}

[Nero grins.]

Damn straight. And the flying's good, too.

[Buster leans back a bit, reaching his head close enough to Nero to get some scratches.]

S'it a smooth ride?

The bigger ones should be, right?
