A School Report

Masterpost

Ingo and Emmet had a long day at the Battle Subway. It was fun, but it was so tiring. They finally made their way back to their apartment dead on their feet.

Just as they collapsed onto the couch, Ingo’s phone started ringing. The caller ID was unknown, but Ingo answered it anyway.

“Hello, is this Subway Boss Ingo?” spoke a woman’s voice.

“Indeed it is, what can I do for you?” responded Ingo.

“My son is doing a report for school about Hisui, he’s in middle school, and I was wondering if he could ask a question or two about it? I completely understand if you’re too busy, but it would really make my son’s day if you did.”

Oh that was some bad timing. Ingo and Emmet were just about to have a meeting with the elite four of Unova to discuss the newly popular Hisui style of battling.

“I’m very sorry ma’am but I would not be able to properly answer your son’s questions to the fullest extent right now, my brother Emmet and I are about to depart. However, I would be more than willing to meet with you and your son at a different date at the Battle Subway food court to answer all of his questions.” 

“Oh thank you so much! John will be so excited!”

As they discussed dates of which to possibly meet, Ingo could faintly hear sounds of a little boy cheering. It brought him a lot of joy.

....

The date had finally come. Ingo was waiting in the food court, watching for a mother son duo. And kept waiting. And kept waiting, until out of nowhere they both burst forth at his table.

“I’m so sorry! We were looking so hard for your usual coat that we didn’t think to just look for you” panted the mother.

Ingo chuckled. “It’s more than alright, I know what my coat is very distinctive.”

She looked down at her son, who was clutching her leg like a lifeline. “Come on John, here’s Subway Boss Ingo. You have some questions for him, right?”

John blanched. “M.. Mr. Ingo! Everyone says you know everything about old Sinnoh, could you please answer some questions about it?”

“Of course! Let the questions begin!”

John pulled out a pencil and a page of notebook paper with scraggly writing on it.

Looking down at the paper, “Who was the best battler?” John asked.

“Hmmm... The best battler in Hisui would have been Akari. She was fearless, and extremely adaptable. Her team was always shifting, and she was always striving to do better.”

After he wrote down Ingo’s answer, the next question came.

“Why did the Galaxy Team become Team Galactic?”

“I do not know, though if Cyllene, the leader of the Galaxy Team, saw what Team Galactic has done, she would be very disappointed.”

 And finally, “What was the coolest pokemon in old Sinnoh?”

“Perhaps I am biased, but the coolest pokemon in Hisui was Sneasler”

“Sneasler? Do you mean Sneasel?”

“No, I do not. There used to be a different variation of Sneasel that evolved into Sneasler. I was the caretaker of one, and she was very kind. She could climb up whole mountains with ease”

“Wow!!! How was she in battle?” John said with stars in his eyes.

“Fantastic in battle. She was very strong but always mindful of keeping others safe”

“What does she look like? I want to draw her!!”

Ingo smiled to himself. “I have a picture of Lady Sneasler at my apartment, I will send a picture of it to your mother and you can draw her all you would like.”

“That’s all my questions Mr. Ingo, thank you!!!” John said with a big smile.

John’s mother smiled as well. “Yes, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to help John.”

“It was no trouble at all, you’re always welcome to come back and ask more questions, provided me and your mother find a time that we can all meet up.”

...

The Hisui researchers were really trying their best. Ingo was still alluding them somehow, and they had made no progress. They were in the Battle Subway food court at their usual table, fuming. One of them was at least trying to keep everyone’s spirits up, talking about cute things they found on their phone. 

“Look, I found someone’s mother sharing her son’s assignment about Hisui! It’s so cute, isn’t it?”

“Wait...” Someone snatched their phone right out of their hand, “is that a Sneasler?? How is it so anatomically correct? Where are these facts coming from? We know nothing about Sneasler how does this kid know about it?”

Someone else stole the phone. “Wait... the kid is crediting... Ingo? Oh my Arceus he’s taunting us again, he’s giving children more information than us! The most accurate portrayal of Sneasler is a kid’s drawing!”

“We’ll get to talk to Ingo someday. It’ll happen. Definitely”
