32nd treasure [text]

So.
I just got around to getting my Pokédex upgraded, and now some of my old data is glitchy and incorrect. Not a lot of it, but still.
Is that known issue? Is there a fix for it?
I mean, it's not that much of a problem, but they should really test those upgrades before distributing them.

Unless we're still needed for something. Sympathy shouldn't interfere with practicality. Or maybe sending people back is harder than bringing them in.

People seem to come and go rather often, and without warning, usually. It might just be a random occurrence that doesn't really...connect to anything we can actually explain.

I'd say the 'without warning' part might be the most important in this case. I mean, we're brought here in deliberate, regular waves, so why don't we leave the same way? Is it truly random, or is there some sort of invisible condition that some of us fulfill?

Mmm...I couldn't say. It seemed random, at first...but you're right. It does seem to be pretty regular, doesn't it?

Yeah. And the few variations are pretty suspicious. I mean, there was a week in May where I would have expected newcomers to pop up, but no one showed up in New Bark Town. Later that week? Those crystals appear for the first time. That can't be a coincidence.

As things are now, I'm not sure if we'll ever really be able to get all of the answers we are after. What we do think is mostly speculation...unless someone native to this place eventually discovers the cause behind it.

They'd have to be willing to share that information, too. And sometimes, I'm not sure all of them would be.

What makes you say that?

Well, the professor in New Bark Town and his colleagues are relatively helpful, when they bother to contact us, and most of the locals we meet daily are nice enough. But what about the Elite Four? What about Johto and Kanto's governments? You'd think whoever is in power here would have something to say about the strange foreigners popping up once in a while, but it's like they're avoiding us.

Mm...it seems like this has been happening for...quite a while. Years, right? If they had an answer for it, I would think they would have said something before...but perhaps it has been going on for so long now, it isn't such an oddity anymore.

Do you know what I mean?

Kinda, but at the same time, the thought that even the people whose world gets accidentally invaded every two weeks have stopped caring about it is a little alarming.

Yes...if something like this were happening back where I'm from, the frequency of it would have people demanding answers constantly, I would think.

And either side of mine would have seen it as an act of war long ago. Or at least considered us all spies of some sort.

When you put it that way...it does raise some questions. There has to be a reason, but I guess we aren't going to figure that out easily.

Unless we finally get some sort of official announcement, but at this point I'm not holding my breath.

Well, like I said before, I just try not to think about all that too much...if I can help it.

That's probably a good idea. Sadly I can't help it at all, though.

I'm sorry. Maybe you'll find the answers you are looking for, someday.

Hopefully I will. And if I do, I'll be happy to share.

I wish you good luck, then!

Thanks a lot!
