Vivian leaned over the boat's railing as she waved. The departing ship gave one last note of departure as it began to sail away from Mossdeep City.

Vivian pulled out a Dusk Ball. "I know you don't like sun that much, but let's depart with a smile."

She opened the Dusk Ball, and a Banette emerged. Skore gave her a smile.

"Look! You can see Mt. Pyre!" Vivian said, pointing. Skore joined her side. The ghostly mountain loomed in the distance.

Vivian pulled out an Ultra Ball as well. It opened, and a Sableye emerged. Vivian had caught the Sableye that was living in her house, and through crude writing, had found out his name. Vivian patted the Sableye's head. "There you are. You wanted to join too?"

Snicker nodded and held up a string. At the end of it was Skore's Banettite. Skore's eyes widened, and he began to chase Snicker.

Vivian rolled her eyes and stared as the Hoenn region began to fade into the distance.

Phil nodded as he watched Vivian's boat sail away. "So she's finally going, huh?"

A Dusknoir appeared besides him and stared at Phil. He wilted under its gaze.

"Stop that. You know how I feel."

Grim chuckled and floated away. Phil eyed Mt. Pyre, which was barely visible in the distance.

"Phil?"

Phil sighed and turned around. Susan was standing there, her red hair blowing in the wind.

"I-I'm sorry. For everything. I was wrong to leave. W-will you take me back?"

Phil's gaze went back to Mt. Pyre. "Are you alright with our lifestyle?"

A Drifloon floated up to him and nuzzled him gently. Phil stroked it gently.

Susan eyed them. "I'm not sure. I let the past get the best of me. I don't trust Ghost-types yet."

Phil nodded sagely. "Then I'm not entirely sure if I can take you back. Our daughter has two Ghost-types already, one of which saved her life. If you can't trust her Pokemon, you can't trust her."

"Oh. I understand. Can we at lease be friends?"

Phil nodded. "Friends it is."

Hoenn. The third region. The home of Kyogre and Groudon. The home of the Champion.

They are not to be taken lightly. They have beaten the former Champion, Steven Stone. They, along with their team of unstoppable Pokemon, rule Hoenn.

Her name is Vivian Robbins.

And done! This was super fun to write! Thanks for all the support I was given along the way! Thank you all!
