[Around the various cities and towns of both Johto and Kanto wandered a girl in a well-kept and immaculate school uniform. In her arms rested a comfortable Cubone, and in her hand was a peculiar honey-colored gem she kept consulting for some mysterious reason.]
[There was no readable magical signature, so she was confident that a witch had nothing to do with any of this. But even so,wasn't this too strange to fully let her guard down? It was true that the creature in her arms was strangely like a witch's familiar, but when Mami had tried to ignore it, it started crying hysterically until she gave in and picked it up. Further investigation had shown that similar creatures were in abundance here, as well as other people seemingly in good health. It didn't fully put her mind at ease just yet, but for now the situation appeared stable.]
[Just in case...she approached the nearest person and spoke in a reserved, polite voice.]
Excuse me. I don't mean to interrupt, but are you feeling well?
[Olivine City]
[Though her guard hadn't fully lowered, Mami was reasonably sure things wouldn't come down to any sort of a fight. So she paused in searching for the exit out of this place and stopped at a small café for a cup of tea, Cubone in tow. Drawn either by the smell of cake or Mami's own presence, a group of two Gothita and a Gothorita joined her table outside moments later.]
[A little puzzled by this development, Mami soon realized they were looking at her expectantly and concluded (realizing the conclusion was a bit surreal) that they must have wanted to join her.]
[So that was how a magical girl and her Cubone ended up having a cheerful tea party with highly fashionable psychic Pokemon.]
