[ as people begin to trickle back into the populated parts of the colony, steven's pokémon do the same - all without their trainer. their natural instincts can lead them to a point, but each of them have other humans in cerealia that they've bonded with; ones that steven told them to rely on, should they ever be separated.
in skarmory's case, it's adrien. while the rest of the pokémon have all gone their separate ways upon reaching the main colony once again, the steel bird stays by his side in silence. he knows that its fellow teammates are going where they feel safest, but he himself feels safest with the young man.
when the others have dispersed, he turns to adren and gently bows his head to him. it's an oddly docile movement, but it's one of trust. ]
