Shall I take this to mean you are unfamiliar with texting, or perhaps the 'gears themselves? I can offer assistance.

[There's a slight moment of hesitation before he speaks]
Gears? Is that what they're called?

The full name is Pokégears but many shorten it. They offer a variety of ways to communicate with others. There is picture and sound, just sound, and text.

Alriiiight... Thanks.

[There's a short moment silence before he speak again, tentatively, because talking to a MGAICAL BOX that might have PEOPLE TRAPPED IN IT feels kinda weird. Really.]

You seem to know about this place [Or at least this... thing] pretty well, so uh.. Do you know how I can get back to Spain?

I am afraid that none of us have found a way back to our homes. We are searching diligently, however, so in time I am certain we will find the means.

If I may, could I ask for the date before you came here?

[His unfamiliarity with text, but mention of a country she is familiar with gave her an idea that he might not be from recent times]

[What? Is he stuck in some other world? A pained look flashes over Miguels face at the thought]

Uhh, 1510 something or other. I am not sure about the exact date, or year either for that matter..

Oh... that is farther back than I suspected. I can see now why the 'gears confused you. They are... more recent innovations.

The concept is simple enough, however. They enable communication over distances.
