+# Hongye’s Journal
+
+A record of events in [][@:Hongye94]’s pokémon journey.
+
+: [2023-08-28]{as=time}[^time]
+
+ Big chain of events culminated in the start of several new journeys
+ today.
+ To summarize :—
+
+ - A while back, a new girl (Gloria) moved into Postwick and hit it
+ off with Hop, who is about her age.
+ Leon caught wind of this and decided to gift them both pokémon, out
+ of the hope, as Sonia would have it, that having a rival would
+ encourage Hop to get more serious about pokémon training.
+
+ - Day 2 of them both having pokémon, the youngsters run off into the
+ Slumbering Weald (!!) to rescue a Wooloo and give everyone a
+ fright.
+ They go on and on about seeing a mysterious pokémon there, which
+ gets Leon and Sonia interested for their own reasons—Sonia’s are
+ academic; I can’t claim to know Leon’s but evidently he has been
+ pestering her about legendary super‐strong pokémon for some time.
+
+ - After getting Pokédexes and meeting with Professor Magnolia, Hop
+ and Gloria manage to pressure Leon into endorsing them for the
+ Gym Challenge.
+ The professor evidently twists this to somehow pressure Sonia into
+ setting off too.
+ Not really sure what she’s hoping to accomplish, but I think she
+ misses being on the road and Professor Magnolia knows it.
+ In any case, I accompanied her to the station to see her off.
+ (Would have gone with her if she’d asked.)
+
+ - A train (from the Isle of Armor connexion) pulled in just after
+ Sonia’s departed, carrying a rogue Slowpoke.
+ Bit uncertain how it managed getting off the island, as that part
+ of the journey is usually managed by flying taxi.
+ Everybody just kind of hung around the station unsure of what to do
+ until I offered to catch it.
+ Oddly, there was another guy there who seemed totally enamoured
+ with the pokémon, but he didn’t make any claims on it;
+ performance anxiety maybe, wot with all the watching eyes.
+
+So the end result is that I have a Slowpoke to take care of now.
+Honestly, my plan is just to head to the Isle of Armor and release it
+ back into the wild; I don’t have any need for another pokémon but
+ mainland Galar is clearly not its correct habitat.
+I might see if Professor Magnolia has any tasks I can do there as
+ well—not exactly looking forward to spending the next few months in
+ Wedgehurst while everybody else is off having adventures.
+
+[^time]:
+ The dates here are “real‐world” dates not “in‐universe” dates, which
+ is more useful for following along in real time but less useful for
+ roleplaying purposes.
+ Do we have a preference?
