As Armo draws close, the Pikachu jumps into wakefulness, the Pikachu rocketing out of the hollow and away. A moment later the Pikachu walks back into the clearing, much calmer. It sniffs the two of you and then speaks to Thompson, "You again. My eggs well? What brings you back to the forest?"

"Your eggs are well. We are taking care of them. What brings us back is that we have found a Thunderstone for you. It should help you feel stronger, and once again we'd like to invite you to become one of our comrades and a great friend for us." Thompson holds out one of the stones for the Pikachu.

Armo holds out a Potion as well. "Even if you do not come, we can at least restore strength, yes?"

The pikachu quickly accepts the potion, then the thunderstone. It glows for a moment, then begins to grow, before transforming into a large Raichu. The scars and scratches still cover its body, but they seem smaller in comparison to the rest of its frame. It bows to both of you, "I have those I must protect. I owe you much. If you need help ever, I will do all that I can. I can help you in two close towns at any time, but only further away in case of emergency. Must be back to forest by night unless need is dire."

Armo bows back to the Raichu. "Take solace in fact that our other stones will make your children strong, yes? We will visit with Pichu when they hatch, great allies if they are half as strong as you! Ha ha haaa!"
The musician then turns to Thompson. "Where do we go from here, friend? Pewter, Viridian, elsewhere?"

Looking to the Chu, watching it evolve, Thompson nods a little. "I respect your decision. We will check on you whenever we are around, so take care of yourself."
He then glances towards Armo and nodded. "Let's check out Viridian, perhaps they have something there for us to do."

The two of you begin heading south, the Raichu travelling with you through the forest. The creature seems to be testing its new abilities, leaping from tree to tree and practicing moves with its new long tail. The going is a bit slow because of Slowpoke, and as the hours pass, the Raichu becomes more and more concerned, trying to push the Slowpoke along and shouting for you all to attempt to hurry. The bug pokemon that seemed so slow before seem all but stopped now, but their faces are always turned toward you, and endless number of weedle and caterpie eyes staring at you from behind each new tree.

Thompson glanced around at all of the bugs looking at them and took in a deep breath. Things were getting a bit rough but they'd be able to deal with it. Slowpoke was slowing them down...but there was really no way to get him to speed up. That is normally. But Thompson sighed and looked back to Destroyer, picking up the beast and putting him on his back. "Hold on, Destroyer. Don't...fall."

Armo quickens his pace, keeping a close eye on the Pokemon behind him. He deploys his Sandshrew... just in case.

As evening turns to dusk, you can both see the exit of the forest in site. You can also see the ranks of the bugs grow. Instead of two or three behind every tree, their appear to be hundreds upon hundreds of the bugs lined up on either side of the path, in eerily straight lines. To Thompson the pikachu says, "Keep moving at the current pace and don't make any sudden movement. I'm going to lead them away." It then dashes into the woods over several of the bugs and into the trees. A few moments later you both hear the sound of CHUUUHH! echo through the forest, and the orderly lines turn into a torrent bugs that sweep past you in the direction of the Raichu.

Looking to the Riachu, Thompson was slightly discouraged. Sure he was trying to help them out...but they could help him as well. "Take care, friend. We'll check on you tomorrow."
He then relays the information to Armo as he continued to walk with the Slowpoke on his back to Viridian.

Armo jumps like a scared little girl at the feel of the bug swarm rushing past him. The musician grasps Thompson by the arm and high-tails it out of the forest, into the direction of Viridian. "Do not look back, friend! There is nothing more we can do!"

As you move out of the forest and toward the city, you soon find yourself met by an enormous number of flashlights. "Halt! Who goes there?" asks a sharp female voice from behind the wall of light aimed in your direction.

Armo raises his hands disarmingly, in a bit of a cold sweat. "We are trainers running from many bugs! We mean no harm, only seek refuge, yes?"

Looking at the light, Thompson shields his eyes and squints, allowing Armo to do all the talking.
