It seemed as if an unknown force had heard their pleas or something, Indigo thought as his eyes shifted over when a large shadow suddenly passed over them. Incredibly enough, an old but regal looking dragon pokemon had a boy riding on his back. The kid was a little dirty, his clothes ragged, but his face was shining with a broad smile and his posture was relaxed. As he touched down in front of them, Indy couldn't help but notice how elegant the pokemon he was riding on was.
Woah, he thought. It appeared that the boy, Zvi, and Daniel knew each other. Well this was a welcome surprise, even if Zvi seemed a bit odd. Raised by a pokemon? I've only seen that in movies, not real life. But here was an example standing right before him. As much as he wanted to ask questions, his tiredness was more prominent. After he caught his breath he would be more open to chatting. For now though, as Pawpaw the Drampa called over another friend, Indigo was more than comfortable waiting in silence. "Don't mind me, I'm just chilling," Indigo said with a lazy wave of his hand. "Nice of you to drop by, Zvi. Thanks again. You have no idea how much this helps us."
Zvi busied himself with peppering Daniel and Margo with questions, their conversation animated and inquisitive. But they were once again interrupted by a shadow crossing over them once more.
"Ooooh, this is Hermes! Meet Hermes, you guys, he's a friend of Pawpaws!" Zvi beamed. "Hermes, meet Margo, Indy, and Dan!"
Hermes flicked his ears, his maw stretching into a friendly smile. He made a noise from the back of his throat, a low, rumbling growl. Still, the pokemon didn't seem to try to be threatening them.
"Two per person, so one person could ride with me and the other two can ride with Hermes," Zvi offered.
Indigo stood up, yawning. "Let's do it," he said, walking over to Hermes. The Drampa wagged his tail, almost as if he were a dog. Indigo couldn't help but grin. It was a beautiful pokemon, and draon type too? Perhaps there was a chance he could catch this one. First thing first though, he'd have to acquaint himself properly.
"Indy," he said, bowing to the dragon, reaching out to touch the scaly snout. Hermes let out another low rumble before offering a soft wing for Indigo to climb upon. Grabbing the feathery fluff and hoisting himself up, Indy marveled at the exquisite texture of the pokemon's downy coat.
"This is awesome," he mumbled, wrapping his arms around the Drampa's neck and leaning against the pokemon. "Don't mind me, I'm ready to go whenever." He closed his eyes. He'd just have to catch this pokemon. He'd caught an ugly Magnemite in Kanto, and he had been raising it! Surely now the wind would be blowing in his favor?
