Track 3 - [Video and Action for Cherrygrove]

[toothaches]

[VIDEO]

<sub>[Today's broadcast comes from within the familiar Cherrygrove Inn. Maurice leans luxuriously back on a sofa, his clothes finally clean and his sunburns slathered with some kind of gloopy green treatment. His hair is wet and fluffy towel is flung over one shoulder.]

[Maurice's hitchhiking traveling companion can be seen in the background holding her Krabby's little claws and making them gesture with what Maurice is saying. They are very serious trainers.]</sub>

Guys! Guys! For anybody who's just showed up or blew on by here without checking it out, you gotta get a massage in Cherrygrove! These people know what they're doing! I've been riding on a Rhyhorn for over half a week. When I got here last night I felt like DEATH!

_{[He glances up at a snort from Dee but shrugs obliviously and continues.]}

But now I feel better than I have in months! I didn't know I had that many joints that would pop but...learn somethin' new every day. So, yeah. I think I'm gonna try to grab a job here. Laundry boy, goop salesman, somethin' like that. I've never been anywhere like this. I've never been to a whole town that smelled good...

_{[Maurice trails off thoughtfully before a loud chittering interrupts the feed and a furry face obscures the camera.]}

THERE you are!

_{[He gathers up the Sentret in one arm and her tail whirls excitedly as she tries to climb on top of his head and stand up on her tail.]}

I was just about to introduce you! This is Cyndi and I don't think she's stopped making noise since I caught her. She likes the music in this place so I've been listenin' to some pretty interseting remmiee-EEEH! WOah!

_{[Cyndi leaps off of him and quickly bounds over to Dee, does a lap around her, and starts prancing expectantly in front of her Krabby. Come on we gotta FIND THINGS! Chitter chitter chitter.]}

I guess that's all. I hope I'm doin' this blorg thing right. See ya!


[ACTION]

_{[It's a beautiful day. A perfect day for exploring! Maurice and his little team can be found nearly anywhere in town window shopping, checking out the local food, or just lazing around under the trees and enjoying the shade.]}

[A massage? Snake could do with one of those for sure but he's not quite at Cherrygrove yet. He was going to meet up with Kaz and make his way there with his friend. The best option.]

A full body massage?

[toothaches]

Yessir! I think they had that ak-chew-puncture stuff too but I thought I'd hold off on that.

[cardboard_boss]

Acupuncture? [Yeah he's heard of that. Mainly through Kaz telling him about Asian massage techniques.]

Yeah. I don't fancy needles piercing my skin. Hands will do fine though. [They sound fine.] You had one of these massages already?

[toothaches]

Yup! I feel like I could run a mile too! These people are experts.

_{[Uh oh. This is the first time only text has popped up. HE CAN DO THIS.]}

They are coming from my bullzeye squirrel.

_{[Why memorize Pokemon species names when you can give them NEW COOL NAMES???]}

sugar glider?
whatever the fuck
holy shit can it really imitate sounds that well because if so im gonna have to backtrack at some point and nab one

[Text]

[toothaches]

She likes to make noise. I wonder if I could really train her to beatbox or something.

Glad I wasn't the only one hearing the music.

[Text]

[callbacks]

yeah it never goes away but you get used to it after a while
ps though if you like pokemon that make noise you should probably get one of these little fuckers

[pipers_son]

Oooh, she's gonna grow up ta be lovely. I should know, my Rogue sure did. But it looks like yer catchin' onta this catchin' business pretty quick!

[video]

[toothaches]

Oh, you have one too! Is yours as noisy as Cyndi?

[video]

[pipers_son]

I’d say just plain energetic, ha! I think it’s somethin’ ta do with the species. Every single one I’ve met could run a lap around the whole a Johto.

[video]

[toothaches]

I guess that's good then. I need someone to keep me on my toes.

[Margaret serenely allows one more claw to be waved by Dee as Cyndi chatters at her before she's released. Pls calm down, Cyndi, she is an old crab as she slowly clambers down. While she blows small bubbles at Cyndi, Dee grins over to Maurice.]

You know what we should do on your days off while we're here? Hit the beach! I mean, while we're here at a little beach town, there's no excuse, right?

[toothaches]

<sub>[CYNDI WILL NOT BE CALM!]

[The Sentret swats excitedly at the bubbles and races around the crustacean a few times before bounding off the top of her shell and scurrying off to where one of the soda machines stand. She desires another Lemonade. Maurice made the mistake of sharing a sip with her.]

[Meanwhile, in human land, Maurice flashes Dee a broad grin.]</sub>

We'd be idiots not to! I've never been to a beach before. Gotta stock up on sunscreen though or I'm gonna be bathin' in this stuff.

_{[He dabbed some of the treated goop off his nose so he could look at it.]}

[oldestfriend]

[Letting Margaret head over to inspect the vending machine, Dee rubs her chin.]

So sunscreen, one of those awesome colorful beach umbrellas, towels… Do you think we could get enough people to justify a big ball?

[toothaches]

_{[Maurice leans to look through the tall windows of the inn and beyond the sloping rooftops, the sea.]}

I dunno, Dee, can we afford all that stuff? I'll totally pitch in but...but food.

[Frisk giggles with delight, a Pidgey perched curiously on their shoulder and looking at the Gear with intense curiosity.]

She talks so much! Or I guess it's singing, if it's with th' music!

video;

[toothaches]

She sure does! Oh, hey, you got a new one! I saw some of those on my way here!

video;

[gainedlove]

Ehe! This's Charlie! His wing got hurt, so I'm helpin' him until he gets all better!

[Charlie chirps and hops a few times back and forth on Frisk's shoulder. This is very exciting!]

Is Cyndi stayin' with you?

video;

[toothaches]

Howdy, Charlie. And she sure is! She's the first Pokemon I caught on my own. Once I rest up I'm gonna head back out onto the road and see what else I can find.

[video]

[defyingfrigidity]

[Elsa can't help but laugh. Between his excitement and his pokemon's excitement, it's hard not to be amused.]

Everything about this place is a bit overwhelming, isn't it? I didn't know what to do with myself when I first arrived either. This land is so different from my own, it was a little hard to adapt...

And I wouldn't worry if you're "doing it right" or not. I think most people use this mainly to show off their new pokemon. [She says this with the same amused tone, so it's definitely not any sort of insult.] And I can see why you'd want to show her off! She seems like quite a sweetheart.

[video]

[toothaches]

Well that's a relief! Because I wanna catch all of 'em!

_{[Except bugs. No thank you.]}

What kinda place are you from? Oh! And my name's Maurice.

[video]

[defyingfrigidity]

That's quite the goal! There are hundreds of different pokemon out there, so I don't think you'll ever want for something to do in this land.

[And you get to see the world as you go about it. There's no way that can get tedious, right?]

It's nice to meet you, Maurice. My name is Elsa, and I'm from a small kingdom called Arendelle. Which... if you've never heard of it, that's quite alright. [She laughs.] None of the others here have heard of it either.

[video]

[toothaches]

Good thing I got all the time in the world!

_{[He cringes a little inwardly. He's going to have to move fast. Who knows when he'll get zapped home?]}

Oh, wow, a kingdom? We don't have a lot of those where I'm from...but no, I haven't heard of that one. I'm from America.
