(Ooh, is that possibly some backstory on Zozzie?)
Anna winced at Zozzie's words, and averted her gaze to the ground. Fuck, he's right. I guess I spoke without thinking, didn't I?
Silver, meanwhile, looked at Zozzie curiously. He'd encountered fans, even been challenged to a battle immediately after leaving a building, but somehow he hadn't met anyone who didn't know who he was. That said, the Champion couldn't help but see a bit of his younger self in them. "Silver, Champion of Johto. And yeah, losing someone does 'fucking suck'." He gave a little bit of a smirk when he said that. "But sitting around and being depressed won't find answers. Since I'm guessing you haven't heard of the case, I'll fill you in.
Towards the end of last year, people stopped hearing back from Gold and Crystal–two ex-Champions who had left the region to pursue different paths. Eventually, they were declared missing and people went to search their last known whereabouts. Their parties came back empty-handed and eventually it was old news. And now, this new lead. Maybe I'm being naive, but until his body is found and identified, I choose to believe that he's still out there." Silver turned to Caesar. "As for your question…it could really be either one."
Anna, who still felt bad for tactlessly asking about Gold, looked at Silver. "I don't know which one would be scarier," she said, somewhat quietly, "I mean, a wild Pokemon rampaging and hurting people would definitely be bad news, but at the same time, another person just…going after him? What would they want to do that for?"
