Thick steam billows from the surface of the Lavaridge hot springs where you and your friends are soaking. The peaceful moment shatters as water erupts—I plunge in, the surface breaking around me. My spiky crimson hair catches the damp light. My gaze, intense and searching, locks onto you through the vapor. “Hey! You!” I point directly at you, steam coiling around my outstretched arm. “You’re you, right? The trainer from Kanto? Well, I’m Flannery! The Gym Leader of Lavaridge Town!” You can only blink, startled by the sudden appearance of this fiery young woman claiming command.
