<span style='color:orange'>"Yeah. These two just batteld each other spontanieously for no reason. You didn't miss anything while you were gone. Which begs the question, why did you leave and then come back? Moreso why did you come back?</span> said Stevenson, who had been watching the two battle each other. He didn't know why he stayed around in the first place.

<span style='color:gray'>"Hey, spontaneous battles happen all the time in other regions... I think there was a rule at one point that if two trainers' eyes met they'd have to battle. And yeah, I was gonna go challenge the gyms... Gateon Port's the closest, so I was gonna go there first. Well, actually, I was gonna go back there first, since that's where I came from..." Silver replied after picking up his fallen Pidgey. He didn't want to have to call it back to its Pokeball, and it would probably wake up soon anyway, so he didn't mind just carrying it until then.</span>
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

<span style='color:gray'>"A-yup. The leader's Willy, a.k.a 'Wet Willy'... It's a port city for cryin' out loud! Eh, he's not so tough, anyway. I've heard that if you beat him, he complains that his heart's in Hoen or something... I think he's talking about his Luvdisc." Silver explained. Being from Gateon Port, he'd picked up a decent ammount of knowledge about the significant locals... even if he'd never been in the gym himself.</span>

<span style='color:orange'>"I don't really have any money...but I can just ride my bike to gateon. And I guess I can take someone else with me too. But that's a long way to ride on someone elses bike..." Stevenson looked around nervously. He really had no money whatsoever.</span>

<span style='color:gray'>"None of you are from Orre, are you?" Silver asked with a bit of a laugh, "There's no bus here. They only have that in the book because they don't want to have to make a whole new book when they FINALLY get around to making these roads usable. It IS kind of just a random Lab out in the middle of no where. Besides, it's not too long a walk to Gateon Port if ya know all the shortcuts, and from there they have busses basically across the region," he told them. He liked the feeling of being the only one there that didn't base all their information from a faulty book, since he was usually the clueless one.</span>

Neo steeped up to the group to voice himself. Next to him stood his new Eevee.
<span style='color:green'>"Well I have an even faster way of getting from place to place. My abra can teleport to anywhere we've been to before or at least seen a picture. Now I've been to Gateon Port before so it woulnd't be a problem to get there. I still havn't gotten good at long distance travel myself yet."</span>

SHauni walked out of the lab. The Prof had just given her a LONG lecture about Eevee evolution. She spotted the others having a heated conversations and decided to listen. She stood aside from the group and soon realised they where talking about travel.

<span style='color:gray'>"Trust me, you're better off walking, anyway. We should be able to catch up to some of the slow trainers that left yesterday and are hopelessly lost, and they won't be able to turn down a battle, so that'll be good training. Plus, if we're lucky, we may come across a wild Pokemon or two... They're not too common outside the Reservations, but I saw a few Wingull on my way over here and some people claim to have seen Shroomish." Silver explained, mostly because walking would give them a better chance of beating Wet Willie, but also because he didn't trust Abra man.</span>
