Cody's Ponyta had taking one of her occasional glances up from the deck, and noticed land. She got up, and made her way a little clumsily across the smooth deck to the rail. "Ponyta!"
"Yes, Ponyta, we're almost there. I'm sure you can't wait to run around properly, and taste the fresh grass." Cody said with a smile.
"Ponyta ta." She walked in place a little bit, as if urging the boat forward. She was happy to stare at something other than the deck, or the clouds. There were other pokemon, but she was almost never the first to say hello to a stranger. Not like Ditto, who often played practical jokes like trying to make a trainer think it was their real pokemon. Or like Chansey, who was always friendly. Smeargle joined Ponya, and took in the new site. As a painter pokemon, he always took in everything he could see, and committed it to memory.
Speaking of Ditto, the little blob had wandered off a bit again. Cody noticed, and started looking around to see if there was one too many other pokemon on deck.
