Akina approached the shrine slowly. She had talked to Lacuna about this and he had deemed it a good idea, so she was hopeful. Having finally arrived, she looked up to the sky.
"Oh legendary Pokémon", she began. "I'm here for a girl I met named Sofia. She was here earlier today and talked to one of you. I know she might upset some of you with her way of thinking right now, but I'm sure she has a good heart and she really needs some help. Both immediately and because...she is really, really sad."
Akina thought about how to continue. "I...wish for a Petilil for Sofia. I think it would be a really good Pokémon for her. There are quite a few reasons for that. One is that we need help. Sofia recieved neither money nor Potions nor Pokéballs from the professor and we will probably need to fight to gain some money. But both Lacuna and I are fire Pokémon and with no means of healing and the same weakness, we could really need the help of someone who can cover them and increase our chances to win so that Sofia can buy food, supplies and find a place for the night to sleep."
She paused briefly. "Besides that, Petilil evolves into Lilligant. I've heard it's a Pokémon really popular with nobles and famous people and Sofia is a noble. I'm sure she would like it. She also seems to enjoy to care for Pokémon - she keeps stroking me and Lacuna. So a Pokémon that would need real care so that its flower keeps blooming would probably be someone Sofia would love."
"And, most importantly, it would give Sofia a goal. A goal set in this world, not only to get home. She would need a Sun Stone to evolve a Petilil and right now, she needs a task that keeps her from thinking too much about home and getting depressed. It would also mean she would probably enjoy learning more about evolution and other things a trainer needs to know as well. I know searching for a stone is not really something big, but...really, everything helps."
Akina finished and nodded to herself. She hadn't forgotten anything, or so she hoped. "So yes, that is my wish for Sofia. If you think it a bad idea, that is, of course, fine as well. I just want to make her a bit happier and her way a bit easier." Akina had decided for herself that maybe being Sofia's Pokémon wasn't too bad of an idea for herself, too, but one would see that later, once Sofia could afford Pokéballs. She could have wished for money, surely, but she wanted to give Sofia a family in this world, too, so that she maybe wouldn't miss her own one back home so much.
