Now that the two ‘warring couples’ had finally contributed without causing any further ruckus, he then sent back the borrowed ‘mons back to their respective owners; before checking his phone and seeing that two more requests had come in over the weekend—and that he was going to have to deal with another batch of guests was nothing new to him. He knew that the eggs that had hatched would be picked up by their respective claimers (there was going to be at least one Sableye remaining with him, either way); so he turned his attention to the task at hand.

Several moments later, he’d finally managed to retrieve all four ‘mons that had been sent over his way, before referencing the notes he’d scribbled down on a nearby piece of scratch paper. “Okay, so this one goes with this one; while the Water-types go together… should be easy enough…” he remarked, carrying the armload of containment units outside. Some minutes later, he’d come to a stop near a sheltered cove of grass that was facing the lake, before sending out what he recognized as a Slowpoke, as well as something that looked completely unusual—he’d seen the younger forms of these before, but not its evolved counterpart.

“Oh, hello,” he began in their direction, watching as the Slowpoke gave him a completely dopey stare. “You and the Gastrodon will be convening for this meeting… I know that you’re not too violent, but try not to be so spacey, too?” he remarked, before leaving the Water-types alone and going to another location within the Ranch. Another few minutes passed and he was now staring face-to-face with the grown-up version of Jack, his old Snover as well something that looked like a floating Venus Flytrap. “So… okay, try not to wreck the place. And please don’t freeze the area, okay?” he remarked in the Abomasnow’s general direction, before leaving the two pairs alone, hopeful that this time, nothing too bad went down.

The business is going~

Kouji was wondering about the anonymous order that had appeared in his email as of late; there was someone who was actively seeking a Magikarp. The problem was that he knew that his own Rynn, the ferocious Gyarados with an equally ferocious temperament of his own, wasn’t exactly willing to cooperate with anyone else. “Well that puts me in a pickle. Who’m I going to borrow something that Rynn won’t rip and tear apart in order to get a ‘Karp egg?” he pondered, taking a look at the whiteboard behind the counter for a few moments.

It then dawned on him that he could potentially borrow some ‘mons from one of the other Gym Leaders he’d hooked up his services; and quickly sat himself down again at the terminal before breezing through several programs on his desktop computer; before finally opening the one he needed. After making sure that he had the correct affiliate’s PC loaded up, he then began scrolling through the list of Flying-types that were flashing on the screen—until he came to a stop and entered a certain series of codes.

Several minutes later Kouji was headed outside holding a certain containment unit, and then quickly made his way over to his own section of the lake that had been roped off for his Ranch to use. After whistling a loud, shrill blast, he then sent out the Swablu which then proceeded to float on the updrafts—and before long a hulking shadow rippled underneath the surface of the water, before his Gyarados emerged; drenching him from head to toe in water.

“Whoa! Rynn, I just got out of the…” he began, making a ‘but why’ gesture in the Gyarados’ direction. The hulking serpent then chuckled to himself, before eyeing the little Swablu with some suspicion. “Please don’t eat Parvi, Damian’s going to kill me if that Swablu doesn’t return. Now, go on…” he ended, making a shooing gesture to the Swablu atop his head, watching as it fluttered off before circling around the Gyarados.

Someone wanted THAT FISH

The moment he’d heard the ruckus going down outside, Kouji could only groan before smacking a palm to his forehead out of frustration, before sliding it down his face out of sheer annoyance. Why did I know that something like this was going to happen sooner or later?! He thought before evacuating the very comfortable Laz-e-boy chair that he’d planted himself in, up on the second floor of the Ranch’s headquarters.

Even if he was slightly expecting Neili to come waddling up the stairs and to alert him that something was wrong, he knew that right now it wasn’t going to be the case, so with a sigh he then made his way down the stairs and came to a stop in front of the door that led to the storage area and opened it as carefully as possible. Once he’d stepped inside he then began to search for the item that he was going to use; before finally spotting it perched atop a pile of boxes that he hadn’t unpacked yet.

Quickly grabbing it, he then exited the storage area and made his way back outside just in time to see a Swablu quickly perch atop his head—and for a split second he thought he could hear a voice, all quavering and shaky, pop into his head. He then looked up to see the Swablu staring down at him, before he made his way back to where his Gyarados was throwing a major hissy fit. “Whoa. RYNN! Calm down this instant!” he shouted, a few moments before he’d gotten drenched in another torrent of water.

“Ugh, I swear…” he groaned, quickly reaching into the paper bag and taking out a rubbery mushroom before tossing it skywards; hoping that his Gyarados would catch it and eat it. “Alright, Parvi… let’s go and try again… because I hope that this man here calms himself,” he ended with a stern tone, staring down his Gyarados who’d snapped up the rubbery treat and was now chewing on it.

It was rather late in the week when Kouji had decided to check his Ranch’s public e-mail address; and was promptly surprised to see that there were two—no, make that three—requests waiting in line for him! Whistling in a low tune, as he knew this was going to be one very hectic weekend, he then opened both of the messages and reached for the pile of sticky notes and a pen, before scribbling down the information that was needed. He then cast a look over at the Transporter and saw that the receiving bay was rather clogged with containment units—and he then promptly smacked his other palm to his forehead.

Kouji, you are such an airhead… he grumbled to himself in the back of his mind, before pushing the chair away from the terminal; and then standing up before proceeding over to where the Transporter stood waiting. After consulting the piece of scratch paper he’d ripped off, he then quickly punched in a series of codes, before two more additional containment units materialized mere moments later. Sighing as he then quickly scooped up the armload (and made a mental note of which went to which) he then stepped outside.

Sometime later, he’d introduced the Ralts (which looked slightly familiar; but upon closer inspection turned out to be female) to a familiar sight—his first boss’ Gastly. “Okay, you two. Don’t spook the daylights out of each other. Give me good results…” he added, before leaving the unusual pairing alone before seeking another covered shelter of grass. At that location, he then sent out the other two—and watched as an Abra appeared, hovering in mid-air…and seemingly sleeping again. Eesh these Abra… must they be so sleep-deprived? He thought to himself before greeting the other familiar sight. “Well, Julie… once your companion wakes up… you know what to do,” he remarked, giving an apologetic grin in the Meditite’s direction, before leaving the second couple alone for them to do their thing…
