[ She definitely hadn't meant to frighten her. Aqua produces from her belt a Pokéball, and she releases the little critter inside. It's a Buneary, easily one of Aqua's absolute cutest Pokémon. Kairi flails her little arms, trying to regain her balance as she materializes, then softly squeaks out a Bun!
