"Wheeeeeeee! More more more!" squeaked the little red Bulbsaur boy, being lifted up and swirled around in a circle while held up by his big blue Blastoise-friend.

'Your tiny friend is verrry adorrrable, da. So playful and adorable...and tiny. Surprised he wanted to be changed into such little guy." Yerik, the Pokemon-spirit said in Matt's mind. Matt could nearly feel his friend smile in his mind as he said that.

"Well, we all at times want to have a big friend to rely on, to feel save when he is around you, or not?" Matt asked back, circling arond his vertical axis, letting the small red Bulbasaur squeak even louder than before as he flailed his vine tendrils in the air as if they were wings.

Yerik only let out a booming laught that only Matt could hear.

'Haa, maybe. Though I never felt need to be hugged by a Lugia or other big guy. More like wrestling them into the ground.' he replied, leaving Matt unsure how serious he was with that statement.

"Now little guy, wanna do something else? Maybe we could try to train some, maybe you even evolve then?" the big Blastoise guy asked with a big smirk on his snout.

"Naaaaw, keep me up up up."

"You wanna keep playing airplane? Why didn't then turn you into a burdy-mon, hmmm? You like me treating you like a weight, so you can enjoy going up and down all the time? Seems you outmaneuvered me there, little guy."

Nino just grinned and pat his Blastoise friend's face gentle with his vines, before Matt again started to lift the smaller Pokemon up and down.

"So, you think 100 times now will be enough for you?"

"Let's see who get bored of it first."
