Piplup: Wait...

Pikachu: AN OCEAN!?

Oshawott: Yeah! An ocean!

Lucario: Oshawott, are you not reading the room?

Oshawott: Huh?

Pikachu: Eevee has a broken leg, and half of us can't swim.

Oshawott: You can't swim?

Pikachu: We've been pokemon for like 3 days only, and we haven't even tried to swim.

Oshawott: Oh.

Rowlet: How are we supposed to cross the ocean?

Tepig: We could try getting a boat.

Pikachu: Getting a boat? As pokemon?

Tepig: Well there's probably a rowboat close to the beach.

Chimchar: W-what if we hitch a ride o-on another boat?

Rowlet: Like a stowaway?

Chimchar: Y-yeah.

Piplup: That sounds like our best option.

Tepig: Yeah.

Piplup: Eevee, what do you think?

Me: Oh uh, what are we talking about?

Piplup: How to cross the ocean.

Me: Oh, I think hitching a ride on another boat will work.

Piplup: Yeah, we were saying that.

Pikachu: But there's kinda a problem with that.

Piplup: What?

Pikachu: What if there are no boats going to that island?

Rowlet: Oh, true.

Tepig: Actually there are gonna be boats!

Pikachu: What?

Tepig: Doesn't it ring a bell? A cold island in the middle of an ocean?

Piplup: Oh! It's that huge tourist area!

Tepig: Yeah! Because it's cold all the time, the summer is the peak time of tourism!

Pikachu: It's mid-summer as well!

Oshawott: So it's perfect conditions for this?

Tepig: Yeah!

Lucario: That's very convenient.

...

Tepig: So, what should we do to pass the time?

Lucario: Maybe we should try Mafia at least.

Tepig: Okay. Is everyone joining?

Chimchar: Can I s-sit out? I'm not g-good under pressure.

Tepig: Okay! Is anyone else sitting out?

...

Tepig: Okay, ill be the first gamemaster.

(A couple of rounds of Mafia later...)

Oshawott: I think it's Piplup.

Piplup: Oshawott, please don't mess up now. It's clearly Rowlet!

Rowlet: I told you it's Piplup! I'm the detective, and I searched Piplup, it's him!

Pikachu: Okay! Everyone cast your votes.

Oshawott: Piplup.

Rowlet: Piplup.
