(Gave Milo's little brother a name, Arlo. It just popped in my head. Also gave them a last name, Yarrow. I know it's his name in other languages, oh well, I think it's nice 🙃)

"And tha, my dear, is how you cook a burger." My Pa showing me his secrets to his grilling skills while wearing an apron that says 'The Grill Master.' Today is the housewarming party. "I see..." I breathe in the smell flame grilled burgers and sausages, I wipe the drool from the corner of my mouth. "Man, I can't wait to chow down later." Pa gives a hearty laugh and smacks my back lighty. "I bet you've missed your folks cookin' am I right?" I straightened up and nodded. "Oh, you bet I did!"

*ding dong*

The doorbell rang, and my phone lets me know when someone rings it by making the same sound as the doorbell. Probably Sonia and the others. "Looks like some of the guests are finally here, I'll be back later, Pa." He nodded as he flipped a burger or two as I walked back into the house. Running past the kitchen along the way. "I got it, mum." I say, heading towards the main entrance. "Okay, Casslynn dear."

Lucario was patiently waiting for me. "Go ahead and open it, Lucario." I say as I was fixing my outfit. I wore something a little different today. I put on a black tank top with an olive green button up thats not buttoned, denim jean shorts that just go above the knee, and black converse. Lucario nodded, opening the door revealing Sonia and Nessa who where both wearing sundresses, Sonia's is mint and white, Nessa's is blue and a lighter shade of blue, Leon, Leon's little brother Hop, and Gloria who all seem to be nicely dressed in their normal clothing. "Hey everyone! Welcome to my home!" I said happily, they all greeted back. "Oh my goodness! This can't be Hop!" I walked up to him and gave a big hug, and he hugged back. "You've grown up so much!" I let him go. "And taller than you now." He mentioned with a big grin.

"Ouch, I'm hurt." I sarcasticly say, I look over too Gloria, who seemed to have a hint of jealousy in her eyes. 'Oh ho? Someone likes little Hop?'. "Well, well, if it ain't the new Champion of Galar. Gloria, right?" I offer my hand for a handshake. She nodded and shook it. "Yes, and you're the Traveling Champion Casslynn. It's nice to meet you." She had a smile on her face that had determination.

"Oh no, I call dibs on battling Casslynn first, Gloria! I know that look in your eyes." Leon had gotten closer to us and turned and looked at me with firey passion. "Casslynn..." "Leon..." we stared for a moment. "Last one to back yard is a Slowpoke!" I shouted and started running through the halls with childish laughter. "Hey! No fair!" Leon ran after me.

Lucario looks at Sonia, sighing, motioning them to come in and follow. While Hop and Gloria ran in chasing the former Champion's. "You can't blame them. We were all rivals back then." Sonia said. "Hey everyone!" Milo came up behind the group. "Hey Milo!" Nessa greeted first then, Sonia. "Where's Casslynn?" Sonia started twirling her hair. "Oh, about to battle Leon in the backyard."

"Really now? That's sounds like a good time." Milo smiles. "Since I've met Casslynn, I was wondering what her team might be." He says curiously. He shoves his hands in his Jean pockets. "Well, if I know Casslynn, she always changes her team." Sonia says, walking along with Milo and Nessa. "Oh?" He responds. "Yeah, she tries to make sure every single one of her Pokémon gets their time to shine." Nessa joined. "Wow, she's very considerate." Milo said with a thoughtful smile, Nessa noticed and looked away.

"That's Casslynn for you." Someone said behind the group. Milo and the girls turned around to see who was standing behind them. Sonia smiled. "Hi, Mrs. Pippitt, it's good to see you!" Sonia greeted. "Hello Sonia, Nessa, thank you for coming." Mum was holding a tray of meats and veggies for the grill. She locked eyes with Milo, he smiles and offered his hand for a handshake. "Hello, I'm Milo Yarrow. It's a pleasure to meet ya." Mum had a glint in her eyes as she shook his hand. "How do you do! I'm Casslynn's mother. You're the gym leader here, right?" Milo nods as they all continue to the backyard. "Yes ma'am! I also Casslynn's neighbor down the road."
