[Hahaha... ha...
So... he's gathered a little. He's not at home anymore, he's got these monsters to fight for him (with no weapon to call his own), and he's not the only one.
But... brr! There was something big bothering him. That thing?]
Did she have to kick me into the cold?
[If he'd gotten warning, he'd probably have thrown on a coat or something - his jacket was sort-of warm, but his forearms were cold, and his fingers too! And his other clothes aren't that good - he got stuck with a jester set of clothes. But he had a reason for this broadcast, as he's looking cheerful, a Pidgey on his head. His Snivy is off-screen.]
So, I was checking the area around here - there's a boat out to another place, right? But there's also a path. Wonder which would be better for us?
[Us being his Pokemon and him, and his possible travel group. He is wondering about the cold a lot, too.] I mean, if this cold gets worse, the water might get frozen. That'd be no good. But if it's that cold, maybe we'd get turned to popsicles for the monsters out there! [He's not sounding serious - because he isn't.]
Also, if you're out there, guys? [as in kiros/ward/anybody else he knows] Sorry I'm late, guess we'll have to meet up somewhere along the way.

Going through the path to Cherrygrove City is a pretty basic way to start exploring this world.

If you're planning on taking on gyms though, you should probably take on Falkner to save the trouble for your Pidgey. That means going through the route.

I'd head for Cherrygrove first... It takes about three days to get there.

[That face... It looks familiar, but...]

She does that to everyone. Please seek a fellow trainer with a Fire-type, if you can. They can make a great difference at this time of the year.

[She knows that voice. Etro, Laguna, how is it you continue to get lost all the damned time? She will never understand you.]

There's a map in your bag. That'll show you the shorter path is the one that heads west.

[Someone actually acknowledging the ferry? Man, that's rare, and it earns a snicker out of Riku. In the background, his Serperior slithers by, while a Pidgeot screeches and squawks at a passing Skarmory.]

Well, you could always flip a coin. Most people just take the path since it's free, but who says you need to follow the crowd?

Which way to go really depends on whether you'd rather explore the Johto or the Kanto area first. Though if you're looking for more people to travel or meet up with, it seems that Johto is where most are to be found.
