[Kogoro, A bar in Japan, Early Morning]
Kogoro's eyes slowly opened. "Hey, get up buddy. You've been here all night, you need to step out more. Unlike you, I actually need rest. Go home." The bar owner said, tapping his foot impatiently. Kogoro grumbled a bit, rubbing his eyes. He stood up, and left the bar. "Ugh, I must have gotten hammered last night. It was a mess back there. It'd be too far to walk to the mansion.." Kogoro passed by a TV shop, a small group was watching them intensely. Kogoro walked up to them. "What's goin' on?" Kogoro asked a Teenage boy. "Oh, man. Apparently some robots or somethin' were up on this Academy last night. That's the claim anyway. Nobody knows why they were there, honestly. Things have been weird since the Merge way back when, ya know?" Kogoro nodded, watching the broadcast. "What was the name of the Academy?" he asked. "Oh, uh..Fuka..Fuuka Gauken, yeah that's it. One of the unnative, merged places." Kogoro silently walked away. "Well...guess I ougha check it out. Work, work work.." Kogiro trailed back to his unkempt office. He armed himself, and cleaned himself up. He had the address. He decided to go ask a few questions, maybe track these "robots" down. "It's too early, can't call Mii for help.." he muttered, getting in a taxi to the Academy.
[Red, Castelia City, Late at Night]
Unova was certainly different from Kanto. Castelia City was huge, and there were plenty of places to explore. Currently, he was watching a Gym Battle from the sidelines. It was always interesting, seeing what up and coming Trainers brought to the plate. Red sat back, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle. Pikachu seemed to be enjoying it equally as well.
