"Welcome, guests, to The Last Resort!" the man at the front desk greeted them. "My name's Steward, and I'll be taking care of you for the duration of your stay! Are you ready to check in?"
"Of course we are," Taeko replied, surprised by the creepy masks, as they saw four other kids staying here.
The first kid was a blonde haired girl and was definitely rich, what with her frilly pink ensemble.
The second kid, it was obvious that he ate a lot of chocolate. Or he just ate a lot of food. Chocolate was smeared across his face and his teal long-sleeve shirt, and blue suspenders, hell, his brown shoes have probably seen better days.
The third kid, while not rich, definitely had a lot of money, her all blue ensemble sparkling in the light, and her brown and blue hair looking radiant. She looked dangerous, like you could set off her temper at any second.
The fourth kid looked like he played video games and probably listened to pop music that was probably a few steps away from not being pop, his brown and green hair looking ridiculous and his red jacket offset by the gray shirt, black hat and blue jeans, his sneakers squeaking as he did so. (If this doesn't make any sense, look up Billie Eilish or Kellen Quinn, they're considered pop music, but are pretty close to not being pop music)
"That's what I like to hear!" Steward said, brightly. "Please direct your attention to the balcony, and meet our wonderful proprietor."
The squad looked up and saw a stunningly beautiful woman standing there. Her blue hair was styled in a beehive, dark shades covered her eyes, she was clad in an elegant white gown with a blue fur stole.
[that's the owner?!]
[bro i was expecting like a normal woman or some shit, not a fucking model!]
[jesus fuck that's the hottest milf i've ever seen!]
DrakBot: [Y'all serious right now?]
"Wonderful—our first official guests!" gushed the woman. "My name is Hellen Gravely, and I own this hotel."
She smiled an enigmatic smile before checking on the other patrons.
"Please, call me Hellen. We're gonna know each other well over the next few days, after all." Hellen smiled. "I'm absolutely delighted that you've all decided to accept my invitation!"
"So are we," Starscream remarked, chuckling.
Hellen glided down the steps and approached them. "You all must be very tired," she observed.
"Ya think? We almost died 3 times." Drakus snarked.
"Trust me—this hotel will be worth the long drive," grinned Hellen. "Come—I'll show you to your rooms."
Resigned, Thad, Bradford and Chet walked toward the X-Squad's luggage, only for Hellen to stop them with a gesture. "No worries—our exceptional staff will take care of your luggage," she said.
The Toad retainers sighed in relief as Steward placed everyone's bags onto luggage racks and loaded them onto the elevator.
"You're our VIPs, after all," Hellen went on, leaning toward the squad and beginning to powder her face. "We've prepared a first-rate experience for you—all the trappings of luxury." She laughed. "Shall we get going?"
Neo turned her face away, sneezing into her elbow as Hellen's powder tickled her sinuses. "Yeah—let's go," she replied.
"Professor Elm, me and Lazuli are picking up our starters." Maurice said as the two entered the lab.
"Ok…" Elm noted dryly, sounding tired and not looking away from his microscope, studying who knows what.
"Professor, we respect you as part of the scientific community, our sort of mentor in studying Pokémon and appreciate the fact that…" Lazuli began.
"We don't respect you if you don't put on pants!" Maurice interrupted.
Yes, Professor Elm hadn't worn any pants and his Luvdisc boxers were on display. "I'll take notice of it." He drawled, still sounding bored and monotone and not looking away from the microscope.
"You know what, I'll just take the starter." Maurice noted as he took the Pokéball with the Totodile, while Crystal took the Cyndaquil and Drakus picked the Chikorita.
The Chikorita had a freaky look in her eyes as Drakus picked her up. It started to rant: "This land we stand on becomes a battlefield. It has to become stained in the blood of my enemy so it can take root and sow the seeds of chaos which will grow into vines of violence and destruction…"
"I'm naming her Nougat, and yes, I like her already." Drakus said.
"You're so cute, I'm calling you Pepper!" Crystal said as she rubbed her cheek against the Cyndaquil.
"Thank you?" The Cyndaquil, now named Pepper, replied, in a female voice.
"With this, my journey of completing the Pokedex, becoming a strong trainer and a cute trainer girl harem owner will begin!" Lazuli noted.
"Did you say 'harem girl owner'?" Pepper asked confused.
"Yup!" Lazuli said with a wide grin.
Pepper stared at a few moments. "If there are cute female Pokémon on these trainer girls' teams, don't care what egg group they're from, just that they're females and cute, can I put them in a harem of my own?"
"Sure thing!" Lazuli announced.
"Son of Arceus, there are two of them." Maurice noted. He sighed and he looked at the Totodile he got. "So I guess it's you and me now, Morrigan." He said. The Totodile, now named Morrigan, just blinked. "Er…Hello?" it just kept blinking, as it soon put on a mariachi hat and started shaking maracas while playing a trumpet. "Ok, what is…"
Maurice got his starter Pokemon
And the decision on Totodile was set
"Why does that keep happening?" Maurice groaned.
"I'mma hearing the voices again, Luigi!" Mario yelled.
"I'm not going back to the clinic, you hear me?!" Drakus said, sounding panicked.
"Me neither!" Lazuli added, panicked as well.
"What is going on?" Jerome asked.
Though the author had now decided
On making it a one-Totodile Mariachi band
"Author? What the hell are you even talking about?" Maurice groaned.
Lazuli's eyes just twitched as she had a maniacal grin on her face.
Then there's Lazuli, who will make a lesbian harem for her to enjoy
She has picked her starter, Pepper, who has her very own harem ploy
And Drakus, with a maniacal Chikorita by his side
Although, Nougat might be a piece of work
"I am scared. How does this disembodied singing voice know everything about us?" Pepper asked.
