After Josh's major failure at his last dig, he wasn't so keen on going at it again. He wondered if he could still do it, or if he'd just flop again. He took a deep breath as the blonde stepped into the sands again... Shovel hauled over his shoulder, Lightning riding on the other shoulder. It was time to go back to basics for now, he had decided. Work his way back up... He'd find a way to appreciate the dig again after getting complacent... Maybe a bit lazy. Try and try again, he'd decided. He needed to reinvent himself and find that determination again.
He sighed as he got to work. It was a hot day compared to the increasing cold outside of these Badlands, but Josh didn't care. Digging, digging and more digging. He worked and worked and worked some more. Hours passed, he was still going. Was it hard work? Yes, but it was something he had to do...
Dig Dig Dig . . . What's this?! Congratulations, You've found a RELIC BAND ! A bracelet made in a civilization about 3,000 years ago. A maniac will buy it for a high price.

Josh would reach into the dirt, looking over the Relic Band with distaste. Great, a dud already. He rolled his eyes and tossed it aside for a Pokemon to steal as they always do before promptly getting back to work without a hint of hesitation. He needed to find that mega stone... He just had to. He wouldn't believe in himself again till he did.
With the blistering, scorching sun beating over his head, Josh worked tooth and nail as he dug through the ground, the sand... Whatever came in front of him, he dug through with all his might. Even Lightning had taken a trowel and tried to get in on the action too, not wanting his partner, his Trainer, his brother to go it alone. The little Pikachu couldn't do much, but he sure as hell wasn't going to let him suffer this alone. They were both in this together...

(This is seriously my 4th shot at an Aerodactyl, lol. Already have one though)
It was starting to get dark, the blonde had noticed. Looking up, he noticed the sun had pretty much gone down. He sighed. No luck.. What was it going to take? He'd attacked these Badlands so much today, he didn't know if he had strength left. He decided now was the time to finally take a break, maybe lie under the stars for a bit... Josh would set down his shovel and grab a bottle of water, finally collapsing into the sand. He stared up at the night sky, and he wondered... What was he looking for? Why was he here? He hadn't even completed phase one of the plan yet here he was.... As if by instinct, digging away like a madman for little stones... Little marbles, as Izumi liked to call them... What did they do? Well, she said they unlock the secret of mega evolution, but how? That's all they knew... All he knew.... But perhaps the Tower would tell them more in time...
He sighed as he stared out at the moon, with Lightning doing what he does best and mimicking Josh by lying beside him and staring out at the stars.
Josh looked over and noticed something... Salia had gotten out of her ball and was digging. Guess she saw him digging and wanted in on the action, he thought. He sighed and laughed a bit at the Growlithe before sitting up to go help.

Salia continued digging, and Josh walked over, smiling a bit as he patted her head. The Growlithe wagged her tail as she looked up at her Trainer. "Couldn't resist, could ya girl?" he asked, chuckling a bit as he watched Salia go right back to digging holes.
Pop, another Pokeball. This time, Destructor would let himself out and get digging as well. Josh tilted his head. What in the world was going on?
Pop. Another one... Inferno. The Typhlosion would join the Bunnelby and Growlithe in digging in the Badlands.
"What in the world...." Josh whispered. What were they doing? He had promised to do this alone... To find that resolve again, alone.. But his Pokemon wouldn't let him suffer alone...
A small smile crossed his face. They could sense his emotions... How he felt... They weren't going to let him fall like that. The blonde wiped a tear from his eyes before grabbing the shovel again. He decided to join his friends and try one more time before time was up for the night...

After an hour of digging, all the ground had found was one of those crappy Relic Bands. Josh sighed in disappointment as he realized it was dark, time was up.... They had failed again. He picked up the band and looked it over. The price for it would be crummy, but there wasn't much else they could do, to be quite honest.
He scratched his head as his Pokemon all looked up at them in disappointment... Feeling like they had failed. Feeling like they had failed him. Josh sighed and looked over at them, before patting their heads one at a time.
".... Thank you" he said, smiling faintly. "Yeah, we bombed it this time, but... Well, there's always the next one" he promised, grinning a bit. What mattered was he had his confidence back, even if shaky... And he wasn't doing this just for himself or his mega stones anymore. He realized now that his Pokemon enjoyed the experience just as much as he did... And no matter what they found, that time together only strengthened their bond.
He didn't return any of them to their Pokeballs... Instead he started to walk back to town, motioning for his party to walk along with him. They'd sleep together tonight, he decided. As a team. As they should be.
RELIC BAND !
OLD AMBER !
MOON STONE !
