[ Life's full of unexpected bumps along the way, but one Sakura never could plan for was a return to this place. Well, the return was a few hours ago. Upon recognizing "MOM" and being shoved out for her "brand new Pokemon journey", she wasted no time in New Bark Town. The PokeGear had no record of her previous messages, but she did recall the last time she spoke to someone was during October which meant the current month of "February" was distressing enough on it's own. Her partner was significantly weaker and didn't recognize her either so it was likely the Happiny was an entirely different Pokemon. With this evidence before her, it was deductive reasoning that drew her to the conclusion that she had left, but hadn't left. There were no new memories of home, so it wasn't as if she slept into one of those memory comas, but people rarely disappear for months without explanation.
She's already flipped through the contact list, but it was late at night when she arrived, so she opted out of making any messages for now. So many of the names she knew should have been on that list were absent and the ones that were there wouldn't have abandoned her if she fell into a coma which only further validated the conclusion she left. Maybe this was like that time with Kushina, when she left and came back right away without memories? Sakura's witnessed it, but she remembers her time in Johto well.
(Or as well as someone who has been asleep for several months could be)
When the sun begins to light up the path of Route 29, the young woman takes a break to watch it from high up in a tree with Happiny in her lap. Before she had trouble bonding with Pokemon, but today she felt the attachment stronger than before. If she's come back with her memories, there must be cause for it, and she's not willing to let it be a waste this time. When she's done and about ready to start back up, she finally sends a text message to everyone who she recognizes on the contact list:
I'm back. Remember everything from before. Going to make a public message soon.
Once that's done, she flips the PokeGear on for a video message. That's about much warning she'll give her comrades before she addresses everyone else. ]
Hey guys. [ Casually spoken as she leans back against the trunk of the tree, Happiny perking up with her own noises as a greeting. ] Guess I get to start all over now that I'm here again, but that's all right. A minor setback like this never really hurt anyone and besides, I've already started by giving this one here a name.
[ Which is far better than she did last time. ] Hatsumi. [ To which the Pokemon's eyes light up at recognition with the spoken name. ] Settle down please, this branch can only support so much weight.
[ Probably an unwise idea to take a Pokemon that heavy up into a tree along with her own weight, but it was to show her the sunrise better as well as to collect her own thoughts. ]
I don't think there's many good Pokemon down this route, so I'll probably pick up a job where I can so I can buy a couple of additional ones. That's what trainers do, isn't it? Despite remembering everything, I'll admit I didn't give it my full attention. There were some Pokemon I was interested in picking up so if someone in good faith is selling eggs or wants to trade for something I can capture here, let me know.
So that's how it is. Anyone want to fill me in while I start my journey back up? I've got a lot of ground to cover so try to not mind it.
