    "Sure," Mika says taking the pokeballs from Fred and collecting Sarah's as she leaves she returns Keahi to his ball and heads towards the pokemon center scanning the pokemon in Sarah's pokeball as she walks.

    Mika:
    You add a Purrloin to your growing Pokedex. It takes you a while to get to the Mall because of unexpectedly heavy foot traffic. Eventually you fight through the crowds and reach the Pokecenter at 6:35 PM. The Chansey indicates that you'll have to wait 20 minutes to get all of the pokemon healed up. Coincidentally, you realize how hungry you are and that although Fred you can sleep at the Gym for free, he said nothing of meals.

    Mika sits patiently in the poke Center waiting for the pokemon to be healed. She scans the Chansey then picks up a magazine to read.

    After a while the Chansey gets your attention and hands you back the four pokeballs.

    It's 6:55 PM and you are hungry. You need to return the others' pokemon soon.

    Mika heads back to the Gym to drop off the other 2 pokemon before heading to the hotel district to find something to eat. After eating, she decides to take her Cyndaquil and Hondour out for a walk, giving them a chance to get to know one another. She goes back to the gym and claims an empty room for her own and goes to sleep at 9:00 PM.

    Your room in the gym reminds you of your room aboard the S.S. Caroline: small, but enough space to rest and relax. There's a large communal bathroom at either end of the hall for each sex. All in all, it's comfortable. You don't see any other trainers or pokemon before you go to bed at 9:00 PM.

    daves alarm goes off at 5:00 AM after turning it off he pokes his head out side before sunrise just like back home he thinks to himself.

    after getting dressed he steps out of his tent and releases his pokemon "Rise and shine every body we have a big day ahead of us!"he says as the three materialize "so introductions nosey, biter this is peach. peach this is nosey and biter. You three stretch and take care of your business while I pack up, and don't wander too far off." biter looks disinterested at the new mon and scuttles off to investigate a bush. nosey on the other hand picks up the little shroom, sets it on her back, and proceeds to playfully run around the plot as if giving peach a ride.

    when dave is finished packing up the tent he notices biter looks very satisfied "what ever you ate I just hope it didn't belong to some one" he jokes to the bug "alright everyone lets head into town" dave swings his bag over the shoulder and starts hiking to the city with his pokemon in tow.

    Blake wakes up at 7:00 AM to the alarm on his P-Gear, and stretches briefly, yawning. Taking a moment to check the time, he nods to himself, showering and getting ready for the day before heading down to the lobby at 7:50 to meet Dave and Collin.

    As you trek back towards the city with your pokemon following you you start to realize how quiet the morning really is. You enter the tunnel just as the sky begins it's predawn lightening. A new guard lets you through the checkpoint with a wave and you find yourself in the shadowed city once again. The street lights that seem omnipresent are glowing at less than full capacity, in respect to the slumber of others. A glance at your P-Gear and a quick study of the map and you believe you can get to the Mall and do your shopping and get back to the Hotel in time for breakfast.

    In the lobby you see the entrance to a small diner, which apparently opened at 7. You sit and wait patiently for your friends to show up.

    Blake nods to Dave as the other trainer walks into the lobby, and blinks upon seeing the Pokemon behind him. "Nice... I see you've expanded your roster again since last night." Quickly scanning the Pokemon, he says, "Shroomish, huh? Very nice... very nice. It'll be useful against ground types, not to mention it's got some useful moves for taking down a target without really hurting them." Blake glances towards the door, noting, "Collin should be here shortly..."

    Shrugging, Blake answers, "Actually, I was going to see if Collin wouldn't mind showing us around that gym. See what's going on there. Beyond that, I know they have battles at the Goldstorm, I may stop by there for a bit. I did manage to turn a profit on the slots last night, so maybe I'll get lucky again." Thinking for a moment, he says, "Maybe I'll check in with that hospital we saw, see if there's anything I might be able to help out with. I'm studying medicine, after all, so they may have some stuff I can help out with - and I may learn something in the process. Still, we'll see what happens once Collin gets here - he may have some other plans."

    Being used to getting up at dawn, Collin rouses at sunrise.

    He'll head over to the hotel where he's scheduled to meet up for breakfast. Since he's quite early, he takes the long way there which includes a quick jog through the park. He releases Sybaris and Ganga to join him on his walk. Sybaris tries to pretend she's still Collin's only pokemon while Ganga is content just to be walking with the rest of the pack. Seeing as how she'd be a fish out of water in this, Collin does not bring Isonade out.

    Before you leave the gym, one of the trainers stops you and asks, "Are you gonna be at the arena today? Joan's been challenged and there's a high wager. It promises to be interesting. Just drop by the Arena around 9:00 AM." During your early morning jog you come across hardly a living soul, just a few graveyard shifts heading home. You reach Blake's hotel by 8:00 AM exactly.

    Once Collin arrives you all take a table inside the diner. Your waiter is polite, if not a little sleepy, and you're able to enjoy company while you eat.

    Blake, this meal gets charged to the hotel. No need to buy anything. Dave and Collin, you would need to buy something (^50) or eat a ration, which the waiter doesn't mind this early.

    Collin plans to take advantage of this opportunity to eat something besides trail rations and orders a spinach and mushroom cheese omlette with a blueberry muffin on the side. He asks for a glass of milk and an orange to accompany this breakfast.

    "Before I left the gym, I heard that someone will be challenging the leader at 9. Think it'll be worth checking out? I figure it could give us some idea what sort of strategies the gym leader uses and will likely include quite a few new pokemon for us to scan."

    Chuck gets out of bed at 6:30 AM. He proceeds to eat breakfast on the hotel, feed Firemane, and then tells the Pokemon, "Let's get you some exercise and fresh air. We need your legs to be strong so you can run like the wind. Let's find an open area and run a little." He asks the hotel clerk where he could find a suitable area for such exercise nearby.

    The clerk looks at the two of you and smiles broadly, "Of course. You could take a run along the beach, just be mindful of others. This is the one time a day we get real sunlight so it's pretty busy down there." He thinks for a second more before adding, "And if you're lucky, you could go to the Arena and run laps. You'll just have to pack it in before the event today. At 9:00 AM there's to be a battle. I've got money of Joan!"

    It's about 6:50 AM. You're getting used to the city and thus can tell that it would take you only 45 minutes to reach the Arena or 15 minutes to reach the Beach.

    dave orders bacon and eggs(-^50). As he eats he slips one of the bacon strips to biter who scarfs it.

    "seeing the battle sounds good between that and the gym tour I might be able to hit 25 mon seen in my dex today. so what does being a gym member entail any way? I'd assume they would want something from you in exchange for a place to sleep"

    "Yeah, you'll want to pick up someone who can take a hit or two before challenging. I found that the guy I faced hit pretty hard. His 'mon didn't know any dark moves, though. Probably not something you can count on. I suspect most of them do.

    Didn't hear anything about the challenger other than that he's a he and he'll be challenging the gym leader.

    As you leave the gym a new trainer at the front desk tells you, "Don't forget, there's a battle in the Arena today at 9:00 AM. Joan's been challenged, and apparently it's a big wager. You should check it out." You don't notice any pokemon this early, but once you reach the Market you're amazed to find such a large crowd. You're just in time to witness the beautiful sunrise as Dusk Island City gets its minuscule sunlight for the day.

    It's 6:50 AM and you've just had breakfast.
