You saw it, then. It looked nice, right? [ his smile takes a softer tone. no matter how many times he goes to the ruins, they'll never overtake the memories he has of Hammerlocke as it should be. ] I wish you could've seen the whole city. It'd take your breath away.

[ it's a real shame that no one will be able to know what his city is supposed to be like... unless another one of his memories escapes him soon, like this one. as long as he gets it back, maybe some good will come out of it. ]

Oh yeah... I remember that! [ his smile widens, fanged tooth in full display as he recalls the lost memory. ] The local Trainer's School had a class stopping by on a field trip - usually my Gym Trainers handle it, but I happened to be in the stadium that day.

[ it was one of the many things that Hammerlocke Stadium offered to the community during the League's off-season. Raihan had plenty to do outside of the city during that period, but sometimes things overlapped that allow him to join in on the fun. it was a great day; the more he thinks on it, the more he can remember those kids' smiling faces when he showed off his team. ]

Thanks! I trained them all myself, so there's a reason they look so strong. [ and he looks quite proud at the fact! ] It's weird not having them around, even though they're technically here. They'd be over the moon to meet all of you, I bet.
