EXT. DOOMDUNE DESERT - EVENING

Kayla, Braixen, Exploud, and Lucario trek side-by-side on a wide path through the desert.

BRAIXEN

I wonder why they call it Doomdune Desert.

EXPLOUD

IT'S BECAUSE OF THE ALARMING AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THAT DIE HERE.

DEWOTT

Jeez, how is your throat not dry?

BRAIXEN

Why do so many people die in this desert, Exploud?

EXPLOUD

THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO WATER. NONE. A BIT OF FRUIT, SURE, BUT NOT A DROP TO DRINK.

DEWOTT

(Alarmed)

If there's no water, then how are we supposed to survive?!

Lucario sighs annoyedly.

DEWOTT

What?!

LUCARIO

We have an infinite water source, Kayla...

DEWOTT

We do?

LUCARIO

(Impatient)

Let me say that differently. We have an infinite water source: Kayla.

DEWOTT

Oh. When are we arriving at Kana Canyon? We don't really have any time to waste.

BRAIXEN

Kayla's right. It must've taken Medicham at least a day and a half to get to Treasure Town from the canyon, and we'll take at least that long too..

LUCARIO

That's a good point. Meditite could be dead by now.

EXPLOUD

DON'T BE A NEGATIVE NELLY, LUCARIO! THERE'S NO REASON THAT ANY POKEMON WOULD KILL A MEDITITE.

DEWOTT

Helloooooo... Haven't you heard of predators?

EXPLOUD

PREDATORS?

DEWOTT

Like how cats eat birds?

BRAIXEN

Birds? What are those?

Dewott's jaw hangs open until she realizes that animals from Earth don't exist in this plane of existence.

DEWOTT

(Sarcastically)

They're magical beings. Kind of like a cross between a goblin and a unicorn.

BRAIXEN

(Mutters)

I don't know what either of those things are...

The four Pokemon walk together in silence for a few seconds.

LUCARIO

It's getting late.

DEWOTT

No cheese, Sherlock.

LUCARIO

Don't insult me. We should set up camp.
