00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,519
Speaker 1: The lonely shiny lapras. In the gentle sapphire waters of

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:10,160
the Orange Archipelago, where the ocean waves whisper secrets to

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:15,400
the white sandy shores, lived a very special pokemon. His

4
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:20,480
name was Loomy. Loomy was a Lapras, a majestic transport

5
00:00:20,559 --> 00:00:24,719
pokemon known for ferrying travelers across the sea on its back.

6
00:00:25,359 --> 00:00:28,320
But Loomy was not like the other lapras in his pod.

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,439
While his family had skin as blue as the deep ocean,

8
00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:37,880
Loomy was different. Loomy was a rare shiny lapras. His

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,399
skin was a soft, sparkling purple, like the sky just

10
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,399
before the sun goes to sleep. Being a shiny lapras

11
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,399
meant that Loomy always stood out when the pots swam

12
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,439
together in the bright afternoon sun. Loomy felt like he

13
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,600
was too bright, too different. Sometimes he would swim a

14
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,320
little bit behind the others, hiding his purple glow beneath

15
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:06,760
the rolling waves, wishing he could just blend in with

16
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:11,280
the blue water like everyone else. Why must I be purple?

17
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:16,159
Loomy would sigh, letting a stream of bubbles escape from

18
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:18,519
his mouth. I just want to be part of the

19
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:24,000
blue ocean. One evening, a thick, velvety mist rolled in

20
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,680
from the north. It wasn't a scary mist. It was

21
00:01:27,799 --> 00:01:32,519
soft and cool, wrapping the ocean in a cozy gray blanket.

22
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,719
The sun dipped below the horizon, and the stars were

23
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:41,439
hidden behind the clouds. The ocean became very dark and

24
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,599
very quiet. The pod of pokemon lapras gathered together to

25
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,760
rest for the night. They hummed their low, gentle songs

26
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:55,120
to each other, the vibrations traveling through the water. But

27
00:01:55,319 --> 00:02:02,239
suddenly a small, worried cry echoed through the mist. Spheel spheel.

28
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,040
It was a tiny sphel, a round little seal pokemon

29
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,159
who had drifted away from its family in the fog.

30
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:14,159
The little spheel was bobbing in the water, unable to

31
00:02:14,199 --> 00:02:17,759
see which way was home. The mist was so thick

32
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,759
that even the blue lapras, usually the guardians of the sea,

33
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,800
had trouble seeing more than a few feet ahead. Their

34
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,159
blue skin blended perfectly into the dark water, making it

35
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,599
hard for the little spheel to find them. The elder

36
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,479
of the pod, a large blue lapras with a weathered shell,

37
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:41,479
called out, we must help the little one, but the

38
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:47,159
mist is too heavy. He cannot see us. Loomy, floating

39
00:02:47,199 --> 00:02:49,840
at the edge of the group, felt a flutter in

40
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,120
his chest. He looked at his own reflection in a

41
00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:56,919
calm patch of water. Even in the dim light, his

42
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,639
purple skin seemed to hold a soft inner light. He

43
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,879
wasn't dark like the water, he was bright like a

44
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:09,840
twilight flower. Taking a deep breath, Loomy swam forward. I

45
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,120
can help, Loomy whispered. He pushed his way gently through

46
00:03:14,159 --> 00:03:18,719
the water, gliding past the blue lapras. As he moved

47
00:03:18,759 --> 00:03:23,719
into the open sea, something magical happened. The unique purple

48
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,240
hue of the shiny lapras seemed to catch the tiny

49
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,240
bit of moonlight filtering through the fog. He didn't blend in,

50
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:35,080
he stood out. He shone like a gentle beacon in

51
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,159
the gray mist. Loomy began to sing. It wasn't a

52
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,439
loud song, but a soothing melody that rose and fell

53
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,879
with the rhythm of the waves him him. The little

54
00:03:47,919 --> 00:03:52,680
Losspheel stopped crying. Through the thick fog. He saw a

55
00:03:52,719 --> 00:03:58,319
soft purple glow approaching. It wasn't scary. It looked warm

56
00:03:58,599 --> 00:04:04,120
and safe. Come here, little one, Loomy hummed, softly. Follow

57
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:08,840
my light. This spheel paddled happily towards the purple glow.

58
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:14,840
He climbed onto Loomy's shell, nestling safely between the gray spikes.

59
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,399
Loomy turned around, his purple skin, guiding the way back

60
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:22,560
to the pod, cutting through the mist where no one

61
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:27,279
else could be seen. When they returned, the other lapras

62
00:04:27,319 --> 00:04:30,480
were waiting. They didn't look at Loomy as the odd

63
00:04:30,519 --> 00:04:35,079
one out anymore. They looked at him with wide, admiring eyes.

64
00:04:35,959 --> 00:04:40,519
You found him, the elder said, smiling, because you are different.

65
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,639
You could be seen when we could not. Your lights

66
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,959
saved him. Loomy felt a warmth spread through his chest

67
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,240
that had nothing to do with the sun. He realized

68
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,879
that being a shiny lapras wasn't a mistake, it was

69
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,639
a gift. As the night deepened, the mist slowly cleared,

70
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,879
revealing a sky full of twinkling stars. The little sphel

71
00:05:05,079 --> 00:05:08,879
was reunited with his family, and the ocean returned to

72
00:05:08,959 --> 00:05:14,480
its peaceful rhythm. Loomy drifted alongside his friends, no longer

73
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,560
swimming behind them, but right in the center. The gentle

74
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:23,600
waves rocked him back and forth, rock and roll, rocked

75
00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:28,160
and roll. His purple skin shimmered under the moonlight, and

76
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,759
for the first time, Loomy felt perfectly at home. He

77
00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:36,319
closed his eyes, listening to the soft sound of the

78
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,759
water lapping against his shell. The ocean is big and

79
00:05:40,959 --> 00:05:47,600
wide and safe and Loomy, the special purple laporas drifted slowly,

80
00:05:47,759 --> 00:05:53,639
deeply into a sweet, peaceful sleep. Good Night, Loomy, Good night,

81
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:54,879
shiny friend.
