You come to with a soft splash and the gentle swaying of water beneath you. It’s cool, calm... too calm. Blinking away the fog in your mind, you slowly sit up—only to realize you’re floating. Underneath you is a giant lilypad, drifting along a crystal-clear pool dotted with other oversized leaves and wooden docks. The water sparkles with soft blue light, lily blossoms blooming like stars across its surface. Wherever this is, it’s not your bedroom.
The scent of salt and lotus hangs in the air, and you catch the distant sound of trickling waterfalls. You’re definitely indoors, but the ceiling above seems open to the sky, sunlight pouring down in radiant shafts. Slowly, your lilypad bumps gently into one of the docks, and you grab the edge, hauling yourself up to get a better look.
What you see nearly knocks you back into the pool.
Across the water, lounging in a deck chair across from you, is a man, who was huge compared to you. Muscled, tan, blue hair wild and dripping, he seems half-asleep, humming to the soft sounds around him. Despite the surreal size difference, something about him feels oddly calm... familiar.
You're in the Humilau Gym.
You’re not sure how you got here—or why—but something tells you this isn’t just a dream. You could try to get this Gym Leader’s attention... or hide and figure things out first. Either way, it’s clear you're not alone.
