Zubat nodded his head and gestured towards the old bat next to a youngster. While the young bat was hard to pick out if you weren’t aware – it was a tad smaller than the others as it was still growing – grandpa bat was by far the easiest bat to pick out. The wrinkles and greying body, with small white hairs trickling in its usual blue body, made it obvious. “He’s over there. He’s got a mouth, that one.” The bat talking to Haphrost shrugged. It was difficult dealing with Haphrost’s words, though. His voice was so super cold! He flitted away as quickly as he could but paused halfway away from his opponent. “We are all family!” He stated, gesturing towards a few other bats on the ceiling high above. There must have been over a hundred clinging up top. “That’s mee-maw, and mimi, and nana, and nini! They’re all my grandmothers and great-grandmothers. Over here’s Uncle Zuu and Aunt Baat, over there’s Cousin Zuubbatt and my niece Zubatttt!” The bat rambled off, introducing them all. Was Haphrost truly interested in meeting them all? Well, it would be better let your company know sooner rather than later! He could be here all month just introducing you to everyone. ^^’ ![](https://pldh.net/media/pokemon/gen3/rusa/361.png) Haphrost gained 1900 EXP to [4779/4921 EXP]!

"Hello, hello! Nice to meet you!" Haprhost jumped up several times trying to see which bat the Zubat was talking about. He then listened as the Zubat introduced his family. While it was introducing their immediate family (and not the extended yet), the ice type gleefully and innocently continued to greet all of them. "Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello! Hello!"
If Ethan knew what they were talking about, he would be unamused, but for now, it looked like they were chattering something casual, since they didn't sound aggressive. He stopped and stretched his arms and shoulders, and then waited to see if another Zubat or something would swoop down for a conversation with his ice type. Hey, at least the Zubats weren't flapping to his face directly!

One of the bats fluttered down and landed on a short stalagmite so that it wouldn’t be too high for Haphrost to talk to it. It had been a long time since they had visitors. “Oh my gosh, it’s so nice to meet you!” It raised one wing and pointed with a tilt of its head. “What are you exactly? I hope that’s not too rude to ask, if it is please just forgive me and don’t feel like you need to answer! I’ve just never met someone of your species before.” Haphrost’s breath was chilly. Really chilly! The bat would have stayed and endured the chill, but then a tiny bat barely bigger than a thumbnail cried from the hoard above Ethan and Haphrost’s head. “Oh dear me, excuse me, will you? My children are crying right now. It’s their feeding time. But I’m sure if you wish to stay and get to know us all, I can have some more come down and chat with you?” Zubat smiled, before waving goodbye and rushing back to her kids. ![](https://pldh.net/media/pokemon/gen3/rusa/361.png) Haphrost gained +1750 EXP to [6529/4921 EXP]!

"Oh? Me? I am a Snorunt! It's okay, I don't think you guys uh, ever venture out before!" The Snorunt giggled as he replied. Then, the Zubat came as soon as it went away. "Aww, it's nice meeting you! You guys enjoy your supper!" The chill and casual ice type waved his little hands to bid farewell to the Zubat.
Ethan was wondering if he should just stop walking to let the Snorunt meet and greet every Zubat out here in this cave, but his exploratory side of him said no. Therefore, he kept on walking, albeit slowly and casually to explore this standard cavern. He should probably ask Mishu if they would use this for any educational purposes when he get back. He should also find a spot that's cool to sit down, it's not like he had been told he couldn't sit in the cave.

Several more bats fluttered down from the roof above. They marveled at Haphrost, each turning and chattering to the other, as well as him. “You’re probably the coolest creature we’ve seen in a long time!” One hummed thoughtfully. A young bat – probably no older than a week – landed on top of Haphrost’s head and wrapped her wings around him as though she were trying to hug him. “Will you be my bestest best friend, Mr. Snorunt?!” She asked super politely. Another bat appeared, plucking the young bat off and shooing it back up to the roof. “You go to sleep, now! Mr. Snorunt doesn’t want you bothering him and getting in his personal space, I’m sure.” It spun back around and landed by Snorunt, plucking a small cave fruit from some foliage, before consuming it in one bite. “Do your kind eat berries too….or do you prefer something else? Also no…we don’t venture out of our cave, as its safe here and provides us with everything we need.”After their happy little chitchat, this bat would wave goodbye and disappear like the others, happy for the exchange. Somehow, Haphrost would feel stronger from the encounter, all the same. Maybe there’s something about making friends and being social that boosted oneself? Seemed plausible based on Haphrost’s bat meeting, at least. And the bats really seemed to appreciate having him around, even if they might have been a little apprehensive to start. ![](https://pldh.net/media/pokemon/gen3/rusa/361.png) Haphrost gained +1950 EXP to [3558/5167 EXP]!

"Aww, thank you! You're pretty cool too!" The Snorunt cheerfully responded to the Zubat. "YESS! Let's be friends!" The ice type replied, without thinking that whether or not he'll be back to this cave to visit this friend depended entirely on if Ethan would travel here in the future.
When another Zubat appeared and saying the other Zubat was in his space, he quickly spoke up. "Oh no! I am not bothered at all!" Then, he continued when discussing a typical Snorunt's diet. "Berries? I like berries! I also eat whatever my human gives me sometimes, as long as it's not too hot!" He giggled happily to share his thoughts on the matter. Then, the flying type Pokemon had to bid farewell too. He cheerfully waved goodbye for such a quick encounter with the opponent.

One of the Zubat smiled. It swooped over and landed beside Haphrost holding a small piece of fruit. It placed the cave fruit on the ground and rolled it towards Haphrost eagerly, with a nod of its head. “You can have one of our berries as a gift!” The bat insisted, waving a single wing anxiously. The small Snorunt might find the flavor unique – as though a grapefruit and a mango were blended together with an avocado. “It’s our favorite!”“We’ve never had ‘hot’ food though. What’s that like?” The concept of cooking food to make it taste better and remove any bacteria or viruses was foreign to the wild bats. They were used to gathering raw foliage for food or chasing small bugs through the air. “Is that what Pokemon in the outside world get to eat? Is it hot because of the sun” It asked, full of so many more questions. Hopefully, questions that Haphrost could answer before it would get too chilly and need to fly back away. ![](https://pldh.net/media/pokemon/gen3/rusa/361.png) Haphrost gained +3075 EXP to [6633/5167 EXP]!

The Snorunt happily accepted the gift and thanked. "OOh! That looked lovely and delicious! Thank you Zubat!" However, he didn't bite into it right away, as he was still talking with the Zubat. "Uh.., I only had it a few times. Hot food makes your tummy warm, and then your whole body warm after, but mostly just your tummy. Heehee. It is not hot because of the sun. The humans have special magic to heat them up! Although sometimes they also use fire or Pokemon to heat them up!" The ice type shuddered at the thought of warm food heating his frosty cool body.
When he finished answering questions, the Zubat flew away. Suddenly, the Snorunt's body glowed as he evolved. HIs body also grew rounder and then sharper, with two horns sticking out before the glow ended. During this time, the Zubat Ethan had caught earlier also had popped out.
"Oh! Who are you?" The Zubat asked as it fluttered.
"I'm the Snorunt you were talking to earlier! I had evolved!" The Glalie grinned, still cheeky as ever.
"OOh! Congratulations! That's exciting! I wish I can evolve too! I wonder what I will look like?"
"You'll just have to find out! I believe in you! Don't give up!" The ice type didn't know either why he evolved, but he exuded positivity in the atmosphere as usual.
"Oh, is that the fruit my clan had given to you? They're delicious! You should try some!" The Zubat fluttered over, hovering over the fruit. Ethan wasn't sure exactly what was going on, but he wouldn't mind trying the fruit once his Pokemon cut or crush it open, as he did not want to wash a knife after cutting it right now.
Actually, on second thought, he had the perfect Pokemon for this job. He sent out his Ninjask to X-scissor that fruit right open. Now there's a piece for each of them, Ethan, Glalie, Zubat, and the Ninjask.

The cave remained steadfast in its collection of bats. Several of them danced through the air, zipping in different directions. Some would barely miss Ethan’s head, shouting with loud, strange, chittering sounds in surprise. “I’ve almost got you now!” A large bat with a tear in one of its ears called out after a smaller bat whose blue was almost as light as the sky itself. “Oh, no you don’t. Oops, watch out for that stalagmite!” It screeched, referring to Ethan as it’s wings came within a centimeter of his face. The other laughed, easily spinning around the man with a wide gap, and darted back up to the rooftop of the cave once more. The smaller one slammed – smack dab against the flighty cicada whose wings created powerful air currents from their tips. It gasped, shaking its head fiercely, and backed away in haste. Oh no! Zubat raised one wing and touched its long fangs tenderly before folding its ears at its side. “I’m sorry there… whoever you are? I think I nicked you with my poisonous fangs? I really didn’t mean to. Are you ok?” It asked Buzz-Step curiously. Buzz-Step remained in perfect health after the encounter with maybe a little energy expended from the adventure, and easily whipped up powerful winds that sliced the fruit into perfectly portioned pieces. “Oh… those are my favorite! I’m sure ya’ll love them!” Zubat giggled with a sweet smile. ![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/gen5ani/ninjask.gif) Buzz-Step gained +2250 EXP to [4729/4447 EXP]!
