This newfound awareness puts him in a difficult situation. However, when he compares the harsh realities of living in the wilderness to being a laboratory Rattata, the decision becomes an easy one to make.

Another Verse

On a Journey for Identity

by Lycanfrost

Constantine is a human. He might have awakened inside some mysterious underground in the body of a Noibat, he might have been rescued by a talking Applin who escorted him to a hilltop, medievalesque "city," he might have inexplicably fetched up in a world of sentient Pokémon and feral-infested space-time distortions with only echoes of humanity's existence and no knowledge of them within its populace—but he is still a human. ...Even if he can't recall who he was or what he looked like. Thus he finds his mission! With Amargoro the Applin's help, they vie for membership in the illustrious and exclusive Explorers Guild of Nexus Commune, a place that ought to provide Amargoro with the resources to find the perfect apple with which to evolve, and Constantine with clues and leads for his question of identity.But rumors spread of a never-before-seen Pokémon flying about, scanning, observing, acting...erratically? The inhabitants of this world consider it a mere curiosity, but they know not of the earth-shattering events his appearance presages.
