There was a quaint house off to the side, with a gate that signalled the entrance of the daycare. As expected, tiny Pokémon squealed and ran around happily, with some flying around too. There was someone there, walking around and making sure everyone was doing all right. They looked up to the two that were coming around the corner and smiled before giving a welcoming wave.
Hop saw them and waved back and started running to the gate. 
"Look how many Pokémon are here! Aren't they cute?" He grinned, watching them. 
"Hello, hello!" A voice greeted them. "Would you like to come inside? We love visitors." 
"We'd like that very much, si—" 
Hop looked up, his eyes widening when seeing the... Oh! Their voice and looks didn't seem to match their appearance. 
"My name is Rima, or you may call be auntie. What are your names?" She asked, not missing a beat. She had dark brown skin and black hair that was in a loose braid over her shoulder. She had calm green eyes and a sweet smile. 
"H-Hop," He said, finding his cheeks to grow warm when seeing her.
Fritz
Phoebe smiled at the sight of the adorable little Pokémon. When she was greeted by this Rima person, she happily retained her smile and chimed in after Hop introduced himself. With a wave, she followed up with a cheery "I'm Phoebe!"
Paul
How cute! Both of them were quite adorable themsleves. Rima then opened the gate, making sure to put her foot across so that the small ones wouldn't try and run out. "It's wonderful to meet you two! Please come in. You're free to let your own Pokémon out, just make sure that they can handle the little ones." She nodded to them.
Christopher
Hop nodded slowly, still entranced by Rima. But then he shook his head and headed in. Wow, there was so much space for the Pokémon to run around. He didn't hesitate to let out Grookey, Sobble and Scorbunny. The three looked around, both Grookey and Scorbunny running around in circles. Sobble stayed put, she looked up to Hop, wanting to be picked up. 
"You should follow your buddies soon. But for now, it's fine." He told her, picking her up. He looked over to Phoebe. "Let's look around!"
Fritz
Phoebe tossed out two Poké Balls of her own, letting loose Sableye and Banette. "Hey, you two! There are some kids here. Do you wanna go play?" The two Pokémon nodded excitedly. "Alright, go ahead!" Phoebe looked back at Hop. "Sure! Where're we headed first?"
Christopher
"I just wanna see what the place looks like." He said, now starting to walk around the place. There was a lot of open space, but there were areas where there were toys and places for them to jump around. In the back, there was a small pond and also a little pool! 
Sobble seemed focused on the small pond, even if there were other Pokémon in it. "We'll come back if you want to." He grinned. 
Thats when he noticed a little Pokémon that seemed to be screaming. It wasn't ear splitting but it definitely got Hop's attention. As soon as he looked over, something went between his legs. 
"W-wha!" He fell, now looking up at the sky from the ground's view.
Fritz
Phoebe flinched as she heard the sudden screaming. Beginning to panic slightly, she rushed to the source of the voice, looking for what the heck was going on. "What the...?"
Christopher
Hop got back up and looked around. Rima sighed, helping the boy up. 
"I'm so sorry about that, she's a little... Fussy right now. I'm not sure why, she won't listen and she just runs everywhere. She tends to run between people's feet too." Rima brushed some hair back and looked at the two. 
"Just keep watch, she really is a sweetheart but lately she's been so frustrated over something."

"That's okay! Oh, I don't think I've seen that Pokémon before." Before Rima could say any more, he went and tried to follow her.
Gladys
Happiny's little feet stomped around as she looked around the grassy area. It was like little puffs of smoke were coming from her! She wanted to cry. *Where was it?* She HAD to have it! She looked over to the boy she tripped up and went over. Maybe he could help her.
Fritz
Phoebe's one curiosity got the best of her. She followed Hop, who was now following this loud, mysterious speedster. She was so needy for info, desperately longing info on what this Pokémon was. But then the Pokémon stopped and looked up at Hop. Phoebe came to a halt, staring at this absolutely adorable little thing. How cute...!
Tommy
With their clothes drenched Iris and Red barged into the building having the Charmander in their embraced in their arms and Red's hat on hovering over the small flame of Charmander. "E-Excuse me!" She called out loudly holding the Charmander close to them. "We found this little one close by and his fire isn't burning as bright as usual!" Iris said a bit panicked. What in the world was it doing wandering off? Was it someone else's pokemon? If the place didn't have the resources to treat him perhaps the two of them could do it instead. All they needed was warmth and shelter after all.
Christopher
"Hi there, aren't you cute. My name's Hop!" He greeted, holding his hand out. Happiny looked at him and then covered her face. She turned away out of shyness. Then, she offered a tiny hand to him and he smiled. 
"I wonder what your name is... I haven't seen you before! But for now, I'll have to give you a nickname." 
Oh, was it beginning to rain? The clouds above grew gray. Hop could feel the small drops starting to fall. 
"Let's get under the porch!" He tells Phoebe, now scooping Happiny into his arms as he went towards the house.
Paul
Rima was already calling Pokémon to come inside; the clouds were out and the rain was about to come. Knowing the island though, it wouldn't last too long. Rima kept the doors open so everyone could come in. Inside there were little areas for Pokémon to be in, each one seemed to know where they needed to be. Bigger Pokémon were around, such as Chansey, Leavanny, Kangaskhan and even a Seismitoad were there to watch over them. 

Rima rushed over to Iris when hearing her voice. She looked down, then called out to one of the bigger ones to come over. Leavanny seemed unfazed that it was a fire type: she had a blanket ready. 
"Thank you so much. We'll make sure to keep him warm and monitor him." She held her arms out.
James
*Whoever left Charmander like that couldn't have been any of the island residents. Though its fire type is still holding strong, the fire on its tail was weak. If it was enduring the down pour of the rain any longer, things would have been worse. At least, Iris and him managed to make it through the rain storm.*

*As the two entered the Pokemon daycare, they were panting from running all the way from the plaza. With the warmth of the building, they were relieved. After Iris explained what happened with the lost Pokemon, Red hands Charmander to Rima. He bowed as a sign of gratitude, then sat on the floor in fatigue.*
Tommy
"Thank you so much," Iris smiled at Rima as the woman took the small dragon into her care. Iris put Red's hat on his head and sat down on the floor with him. "Thank you," She said once again resting her head on his shoulder slightly exhausted. Iris took the bottom of her dress and started wringing out the water from it. "We should probably dry up soon or we'll catch a cold," She patted Red's back smiling. "Good job by the way!"
Frances
She takes Charmander and takes him to the side. "Feel free to stay until the rain clears." When she did that, Chansey came over to them, carrying some warm drinks and a large blanket. It was a little thanks, as well as a way to help them get warm.
Fritz
Phoebe stood there in the rain, confused at first. She then flinched. "...Oh! I'm coming!" With that, she and the two small ghosts she had sent out headed inside. A little airheaded, aren't we, Phoebe...?
Christopher
Hop saw the two that came in and looked to Rima as she tended to Charmander. He went over to Iris and Red and smiled, greeting them. Iris... Sort of looked like him, didn't she? 
"Hi! I'm Hop! It's really good that Charmander got here. We just got here but it's a great place for little Pokémon. Like this one! She's cute, I don't know what Pokémon she is but I'm calling her Pinky!" He swayed side to side.
Gladys
Happiny was still pretty frustrated, but with her features it was hard to see that she was. Plus, being in someone's arms was... Pretty nice. But she still needed to find that thing she needed. Her little feet kicked back and forth as she waited, a little impatiently.
James
*Red nodded his head at Iris. The two did pretty good on their rescue mission. While he tried to dry his vest, Hop walk up to them. Red tipped his hat as a greeting. Before he went back to drying his vest, he stared at Iris and Hop. Somehow, the two look similar to one another. The fluffy purple hair and their brown skin. Are they related?*
Tommy
Iris smiled at the Chansey, and shared the blanket with Red. She put the drinks besides them, and stared down on it. It looked like some kind of hot chocolate with cream on top. How fancy! 
Iris looked up at the boy returning his greeting, "Hop... Hop.. Hippety hopscotch? Nice to meet you I'm Iris! You probably know him by now ,but the guy with me is Red! " She smiled at the boy, she did see a resemblance from the two but it would be weird to try and bring it up. "I don't really know what kind they are to be honest, but they're probably related to a Chansey or a Clefairy! But she does look like she wants get something," Iris laughed seeing the pink pokemon struggle was so cute.
Christopher
That had to be Red! Iris' words confirmed it. "Heh, Lee talks about you all the time!" He laughed. Wouldn't it he awkward to ask about how they looked related? Yeah, so he didn't bring it up. Yet! 
"Hey, you know my screen name! Now I can match faces to icons." He grinned. 
Chansey listened to Iris and nodded. Yep, Happiny was definitely the young one to her. "Yeah, I should put her down and ask her." Hop said, setting her down. Sobble looked up to Iris and Red, tilting her head some.
Gladys
Happiny ran back and forth in between Hop's legs, now throwing another mini tantrum, which was just stepping around and making little grumbling noises. She looked up to Hop and the others expectantly. She looked at her pouch. Maybe that would help them with her problems. She then waddled off and came back with a piece of paper and a crayon. She took it and then started to draw something.
Fritz
Phoebe tilted her head. Red... Red... Red... Where had she heard that name before...?! Oh! Right! Steven often went on rants about Red. Something something best Champion in the world blah blah blah— oh. Best Champion in the world? Oh, darn. That must've meant she was talking to someone REALLY important without knowing it. She didn't know how to react, just standing there awkwardly for now.
James
*With the blanket surrounding the two of them, Red scooted close to Iris. How sweet of her to bring hot chocolate for the two of them! Bringing the beverage close to his face, he blew on it before taking a sip. He chuckled hearing about Leon. The Galarian Champion does look up to him like a god. Red finds his admiration a tad bit too much though.*
Tommy
Iris looked over at the Sobble, giving a few pats gentle pats on the head as it stared over at the two curiously. She's never actually been in a daycare before, so seeing such cute little pokemon really brightened her day even during a rough rainstorm like this. "Yeah make sure not to aggravate her! She maybe small but even small pokemon can pack a punch!" She laughed, thinking of those times she played around with Axew as a child. When Happiny was put down, she looked over to see what she was trying to draw.
Christopher
"Oh, and this is Phoebe! She's from Hoenn and she's part of the Elite 4! Guess I'm the only one lacking here, heheh..."

"Whatcha drawing, Pinky?" He asked, looking down to watch her. Wow, it was really interesting to see the differences between Pokémon in domesticated situations than those in the wild. He isn't sure if he's seen many of them draw before.
Gladys
Happiny concentrated on the paper, trying her best to draw the roundest object she could. She then scribbled on the inside to color it. She showed it to Hop first, jumping up to smack him in the face with it. She then takes it off and shows it to Iris and Red by stuffing it into her pouch with the drawing showing. She was missing something! Surely they would understand.
Fritz
"Huh? Nonono, I'm the lacking one. Honestly? I'm no good at battling, I swear." Phoebe awkwardly tried to dismiss it all. She underestimates her own skill.
Tommy
"Well I bet you are Phoebe! You are an Elite 4 after all. The Elite 4 I worked with are super strong too you know!" Iris reassured her. People tend to frown upon those who are prideful, but never acknowledging yourself and being too modest is just as bad! 
After Happiny finished her drawing, Iris gazed at it. The lines were rough and it looked more like an oval shape if anything. She glanced at Chansey then back at the Happiny, "Oh! You want to be like Chansey!" She got up smiling at the little pink pokemon. With the storm out and about, she didn't feel like it would be a very good idea to look for something round outside. Maybe there's some toys around here! She glanced at Red wondering if he wanted to join her on this scavenger hunt. Maybe he wants to finish his chocolate first.
Christopher
Happiny looked up to Iris. Well... She was *Kind* Of right. But she didn't just want to be like her, she wanted something in her pouch! She gave a little huff before taking the paper out and trying to go back to Hop. She looked at him, then looked outside. Rain or not, she needed to go and find something. 
"W-well, we can't go outside yet, because it's raining. And we'll get really wet out there. We can go when the rain st-"

That's when Hop felt himself being lifted. Happiny whined and bounced around, now lifting Hop above her body and running around. She seemed to be crying and throwing another tantrum. *If he didn't want to go outside then she'd be dragging him with her!* 
"Hey hEY HEY AaaGH!" Hop didn't know what to do! They were headed straight into a wall that was near the door, soon crashing into it. Happiny went bouncing off to the side, now beginning to cry again.
