[The point of view isn't a particularly strange one, to the point Steven would be forgiven for not noticing the dream was strangely out of place- a Pokémon Center, drifting from the typical Nurse Joy at the counter over to the PC. The only details that might give the Ghost up right away are a poster in the corner advertising cruise services from Vermillion Port, and some travel brochures plastered with the seaside town's coastline.]
[That and the height from which he's viewing the PC, as it turns on. He's looking up at the screen as it boots up into a system labeled 'Bill's PC', poking at the screen with tiny hands, purple sweatbands on each wrist. It's then that he draws two of the balls from his hip, and frowns at them both.]
[One is a Pidgeotto. The other is a Raticate. After a moment of indecision, Raticate is placed onto the teleporter pad. Once a voice rings into his mind, it becomes clear whose memory he's seeing.] Three losses in a row ... tch.
I only need powerful and loyal Pokémon. If it can’t cut it, then...
... Hey, Raticate. From now on, you have an important job, okay? Stay at home and keep gramps company while I’m away.
[Blue frowns to himself as an unpleasant feeling bubbles up in him again. Whatever. It's a trainer's job to pick the best for their team, right? He reaches for the Deposit button with a final breath.] I’m counting on you.
[The unpleasant emotion grows stronger as the memory bubbles away into darkness, but this time, that feeling is directed back onto himself.]
