Two Hundred and Ten

Tired of Making Rivals

Third Person's POV

"Ash are you ever going to tell me who that guy was from last night?" Dawn complains while the two walk through the streets of Jubilife City.

It's only about ten in the morning and they want to get onto the next route as soon as possible, but they have one stop to make first.

Dawn has a lot of energy after the contest yesterday so they went out and bought most of the supplies Dr. Harrison suggested. Dawn upgrades to a bigger pink backpack while Ash's seemed to be an endless hole based on how much they fit in it.

Bryan from the day before approached Ash and gave him his office address with instructions to visit. Dawn still doesn't know how Ash knows a random businessman from Sinnoh and her persuasive abilities aren't helping.

So now they're on there way to visit the building which is only a block away...

"Here it is," Ash looks up at the skyscraper before them.

"Are you sure?" Dawn questions as they walk through. "This place is pretty fancy."

"Welcome to the Pokétch company building," A receptionist greets. "How can I help you two today?"

"A guy named Bryan told me to come here," Ash states and the receptionist gives a shocked look, almost like the one Dawn is giving him.

"Oh the president," The receptionist types into her computer quickly. "Top floor."

"Thanks," Ash smiles and walks towards the elevator. He turns to see Dawn still not moving. "Dawn?"

She nods and follows him into the elevator. "Ash a Pokétch is like a must have thing right now," Dawn explains with a dreamy look in her eyes. "I can't believe the President of the company wants to see you."

"His daughter helped me pick out your seals," Ash says with a smile. "She was pretty cute and definitely could've shopped there all day."

Dawn looks at him with a tiny little bit of jealously, her eyes telling him to stop talking... He turns to look at the blunette glaring.

"What?" Ash questions. "Maybe I shouldn't have let a ten year old pick them out for me but I thought they were pretty good seals for your contest."

Dawn realizes her mistake and her face turns from anger to embarrassment. "Oh," Dawn mumbles, barely audible over the elevator music. "She must really know her stuff." She tries to smile.

"Yea she does," Ash answers, skeptical of how Dawn is acting right now.

The elevator dings and the two teenagers step out into a luxurious room.

"President Bryan has been waiting," The secretary states and motions to two large doors.

Ash nods and they go through into his office. "I'm glad you two could make it," Bryan smiles and stands up to shake their hands. "I should properly introduce myself, I'm Bryan the CEO of Pokétch inc. Your performance yesterday was very well done yesterday Dawn."

"Thank you," Dawn blushes.

"Take a seat so I can show you guys what I've been working on," He motions to the chairs in front of his desk before sitting down himself.

The room feels like you're in Arceus's lair. The wall sized window makes it look like they're among the clouds while the white walls and golden trim give it that shiny appearance. It's also immaculate in every sense.

He brings out two fancy looking cases and opens them to reveal two custom made Pokétch devices. "Maria helped me design them last night," Bryan chuckles.
