On a early morning taxi ride, three Pokémon sat in the back seat: A Treecko, a Charmander, and a Litten. The Treecko, named Narcis, was already asleep five minutes after the drive started out. With him being the only one, two fire-types were fully awake. Ken, the Litten, gazed through the window at the fading night sky with the sun ready to rise while Charles, a Charmander, sat up straight with enthusiasm, looking at the front view. The taxi driver, who appears to be a Psyduck, spoke first.

"Looks like you three are the only ones moving to Galar?"

"You got that right, ma'am!" Charles answered. "We hear it's based of the UK!"

"How did you know that?" Ken asked, turning to the with a slight uncouthness. "What if it's not?"

"Chill, Ken. I did some research."

"And you said "we" know that Galar is based on the UK?! You gotta be kidding me, Charles!"

"I just want give credit. We couldn't be as overworked as Narcis was before."

The Litten rolled their eyes in response of disbelief and glanced at Narcis who was snoring with his glasses on.

"I'm falling asleep," The Litten thought when he had no choice whatsoever. He had given himself a shuteye during the ride, however he is almost struggling to because of the fire salamander's chitchat with the taxi driver. Much to his annoyance.

[Few hours later...]

"Here we are, boys!

The long stretch came to an end as the driver pulled over in front of the town hall building. Charles became excited and woke up his two friends. Tired Ken gave the driver a tip, receiving a thank-you. Charles and Narcis, who is now awake, exited the car with their luggages.

"Make sure you sign the applications first," the driver reminded. "It'll help you be identified as Galar residents."

"Thanks, ma'am! Have a good day!" The Charmander appreciated and waved after the taxi drove away. With one hand gripped on the luggage and the other on his hip, he was determined.

"So this is Galar?" the Treecko wondered, adjusting his glasses.

"That's right, Narcis! Galar, it is!" Charles answered, eagerly.

"Narcis, Charles, we need to sign up!" The Litten called to them, holding the town hall door. "Hurry!"

Charles almost forgot and he hurried to the town hall. Narcis followed, for he, too, wasn't aware. As they got in, they approached to the civics center counter. The town hall clerk, a Pikachu, greeted the three with such excitement that it almost spooked the trio.

"Hi, and welcome the Galarian Town Hall!" The Pikachu introduces. "I'm Zara, how may I help you?"

"Hi, miss Zara, we moved here in Galar from Kanto, Hoenn and Alola," The Charmander answered.

"Foreigners!" Zara cheered, after clapping her hands. "How exciting! Wait here while I get the papers!"

As the Pikachu headed off to alert someone, Narcis gave a flirtatious look, tilting his glasses downward, that creeped Ken out.

"She looked kinda cute if you ask me," the gecko smirked.

"Narcis, stop," Ken ordered.

"What, it's just a compliment."

Soon after, Zara came back with a small packet of three with two papers stapled together.

"Alright, all you need to do is fill out the paperwork to get your residential license and apartment keys. Once you're done, hand it over to me, I give you the license and keys, and you're done."

"Sounds easy! Thank you!" Charles thanked the electric mouse as she left their presence.

Filing the information, Charles and Narcis confidently got done with their files, but Ken is the only one who silently hesitated at the end. After receiving the resident card and keys to the apartment, their new lives began.
