islandshore: (Wow you're dense)

[video]

[The video clicks on to show an exasperated Riku. He's up on the roof of the Training Center while a very loud Aerodactyl and Pidgeot shriek at each other. Seems the two are competing for... something. There's even a rather lean and mean looking Drogonite barreling between them.

Riku brings a hand to his face and moans.]


...Yeah. I could use a vacation.

[But enough about that. He addresses the camera:]

So. Another year, another prom. I don't know about you, but I'm... kinda skeptical about the whole thing.

[He pauses, ducking as Highwind sails over his head. Riku really shoulda brought a helmet.]

We all know something's gonna happen, right? Something always happens at prom. Ultra Beasts. Yamask possession. Giant Pokemon. Team Rocket attack... At this point, more proms have gone haywire than not. No wonder the Elite Four stopped hosting it, y'know? We're... kind of a handful.

[Speaking of handfuls... that Dragonite, Draco, has grabbed Terror the Aerodactyl in a headlock and is BaooOooOOO-ing to show his supremacy. Classy.]

Guess the question is, what'll it be? We got new Pokemon showing up again. That's usually a precursor to something big.

Place your bets now, I guess. I could use a distraction from this.

[He gestures out at his warring Pokemon, then grumbles to himself.]

I swear, the second I turn this place into a gym, I'm gonna have to have a serious talk with my team.
