Heath sat on the floor, bored. Although the scenery outside was quite nice, after looking at it for a while, he gradually began to get bored. It would take a full day to reach the Indigo League headquarters from his current location, so Heath planned to find a game to pass the time.
After thinking for a while, Heath dug a deck of playing cards out of his backpack.
"Trainer, why don't you have any consoles like a Switch or a PS5? I really didn't expect we'd have to play cards," Zorua said dejectedly. Her reproachful little gaze made Heath rub his nose in embarrassment.

"Far?" Farfetch'd looked at Heath curiously. He didn't quite understand what Heath wanted to play
