Daniel jokingly suggested that Kamina should Splash across the gap, which gave Anthony the idea of getting him to use Bounce. Josh wasn't sure whether or not Kamina would be able to clear the gap with that attack. Now that Anthony had given him that idea, though, there was no stopping him.
"Well, there's a chance that he might make it." Josh said. "He's got enough jumping power. Probably."

"Sounds like Tauros shit to me. I was out here looking for you two all day yesterday. Never saw anything bigger than a Furfrou." Dexter said. "I think if there was something like that out here, I would've seen it. Or at least heard of it."
He wasn't going to believe their story until he saw this thing for himself. It sounded like they just made it up because they were embarrassed by what really happened.

After walking through the plains for a while, they came across a Lopunny who had a badge from the other guild. Nina approached her and tried to start a conversation, but she just ran away without saying anything. Dexter didn't know why she would just run away. It probably had something to do with the rivalry between the guilds.

I'll be joining this. I think I'll try to do an antagonist and see how it goes.

Robert attempted to guess the password, to no avail. Thankfully, they were able to enter after Backstabs picked the lock. Trey expected these dragons to be hostile, but he was wrong. In fact, they were being surprisingly civil. Apparently, none of them were behind the egg theft, but the new guy they mentioned seemed pretty suspicious.
"So, we have two options now." Trey said. "We could go out and look for him, like Deravan suggested, or we can wait here until he comes back."

Lavul? Are you there?

Is it still going? I stopped working on my app because I thought it was dead.

At first, Josh was enjoying the change in temperature. After almost freezing to death, the warmth of this area was a very welcome change. The closer they got to the tower, though, the warmer it got. By the time they got to the bridge leading to the tower, it was unbearably hot. Josh figured he would be able to handle it, at least until they reached the top of the tower, but he couldn't say the same for some of his teammates.

They had a bigger problem at the moment, though. The bridge seemed unstable and dangerous, and to make matters worse, it was the only way they could get to the tower. Even though Josh could simply float over to the other side, there were a few people in the group that couldn't. Spruce seemed light enough to cross safely, and even though Anthony and Celes were a bit heavier, they might still make it. Kamina would be a problem, though. There was no way this bridge was stable enough to hold him.

"How are we going to get Kamina over there?" Josh asked. "He weighs at least 500 pounds. There's no way he'll be getting across without it breaking."
He started thinking for a moment. There might be a way to get Kamina across without the bridge, but Josh had nothing. He looked towards Matt, thinking he might have a solution, but unfortunately he seemed just as puzzled as Josh was.

Nina decided to choose a mission on Mt. Dragoncoil. It wouldn't be a difficult dungeon, since they had a Fairy-type with them. It would give Dexter an opportunity to see if these two knew their way around a fight, though. What happened in this next mission would determine whether or not he would stay on this team.

In order to get to Mt. Dragoncoil, they had to get through Sunswept Plains first. For some reason, Nina seemed to be unsettled by something.
"There's nothing but Rattatas out here." Dexter said. "I don't know what the hell you're afraid of."

Robert had found what appeared to be the entrance to the black smoke dragon's hideout. For some reason, he decided to just run in without any sort of plan.
"Robert, stop!" Trey called out, trying to catch up to him. "What do you mean 'you're going in'? Do you have any idea how dangerous that would be?"
He hoped he would be able to talk some sense into him. His victory over that other dragon must have been getting to his head.

By the time Josh woke up, the fire had died down, since nobody bothered to tend to it through the night. Because of this, it was freezing, and since Josh was a Dragon-type, he didn't handle the cold very well. The fact that he was used to a warm, tropical climate didn't help, either. The only ones in the group that didn't seem to be bothered by the cold were Matt and Kamina.

He decided to talk to Kiera before they left. He wasn't sure if she was still conscious, let alone if she could hear him, but it was worth a shot.
"Kiera, can you hear me?" Josh said. "We're going to find Reshiram, and if everything goes according to plan, he'll thaw out this village. We'll get you out of here, I promise."

Everyone had woken up by that point. He hadn't eaten in a while, so he quickly ate one of the pastries he got at the bakery before they left. Doing this mission on an empty stomach wouldn't be a good idea.

When Dexter sat down to eat, he was soon joined by the team he'd just rescued. They asked him a few questions, most of which he had no problems answering.
"I'm Dexter." He said in response to Rebecca's question. "I used to be in a team, but they ended up disappearing not too long after we first registered. I've been on my own ever since."
Nina then offered to let Dexter join their team.
"I really need to think about that for a bit. I'll let you know tomorrow."

He wasn't sure if he wanted to accept Nina's offer or not. Sunswept Plains was one of the most beginner-friendly dungeons out there. If Nina and Rebecca had to teleport away from there, how could they possibly handle the more difficult dungeons? On the other hand, team arrangements weren't permanent. If they ended up holding him back, he could leave the team just as easily as he joined it. On top of that, finding another team would be difficult, especially given his history.

The next day, Dexter ran into Nina while she was waiting in line for breakfast.
"Hey." He said. "I decided I'm gonna join your team. For now, anyway."
