Pokemon Invasion
For the third time, Pokemon have graced all of Genessia. It has been a while since these creatures last made their appearance here, but it seems most are still as welcoming to them now as they were the first time around. Remember to keep them well cared for. If they are injured, don't be afraid to take them to the Pokemon Center for treatment.
The nurses on hand will heal your Pokemon for no charge at all. And while you are there, don't be why about purchasing Poffins. Pokemon are quite fond of these treats so stock up on them while you can!

While we couldn't get any details, we have heard that Dave Strider, famous director is also involved in what's being planned. A representative from Fama Talent agency wouldn't speak much on the subject. Though they have said they are hoping to sign by Ryo and Alice to their agency before what is being planned goes live.
We spoke to Ryo himself, but we were asked by Alice to disregard the quote we were given. It seems as if Ryo was in a bad mood on that particular day.
