A Day with Marnie

As Scottie was walking in the forest, [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="he" F="she" ] came across Marnie receiving something from a rising star's Delibird.

Here, Morpeko. Have a Berry seed.

Oh, hey, Scottie. Why do ya look so shocked? Somethin' wrong?

Morpeko's appearance? Oh, did ya see all that just now?

My partner Pokémon, Morpeko, changes appearance based on how hungry she is.

The black fur you just saw was her in Hangry Mode. She gets hangry and has a real nasty temper.

I usually carry around Berry seeds just in case...

but I ran out while walkin' around and lookin' in all the apparel shops in town.

It's OK, though, because the sync pair I was just talkin' to shared some of theirs with me!

You're still hungry? I guess I've gotta go search for some Berries, then...

Hey, Scottie, help me look for a bit, would ya?

Thanks! Let's get goin', then, shall we?

Glad to hear it. It'd be a great help to have someone searchin' with me.

Phew. We sure gathered a lot. But I think we need just a few more...

Yeah. My legs got tired real quick, too, when I first started doin' this.

I bet you're right. It's practically like workin' out.

It doesn't bother me anymore, though. I've been doin' this ever since I teamed up with Morpeko when I was five years old, y'know.

My big brother caught my Morpeko for me way back then, when all I did was cry all the time.

Ever since then, Morpeko and I have always been there for each other.

I still find myself doin' silly stuff like this since Morpeko can get so hangry sometimes...

But I bet you won't find any sync pair out there with a bond stronger than ours.

Well, I guess all the sync pairs here on Pasio probably say the same thing, huh?

So I know I can't just rely on our bond. We've gotta keep trainin' to get stronger if we wanna beat all the other sync pairs here.

Thanks! I'll be sure to cheer for you when you battle, too, Scottie.

We don't plan to lose to you, either! We need to have a proper battle one of these days!

OK, then. I guess we've gathered about enough.

Thanks for your help, Scottie. With this many Berries, we should be fine for a little while at least.

Hmm... How can I thank you?

I know! I'll be your trainin' partner the next time you go out to train.

We can cheer each other on and both get stronger together. It'll be great, y'know?

Be sure to tell me next time you go out to train. It's a promise, got it?
