53rd treasure [video]

[Tonight, everyone on the network gets a good view of a ceiling! ...A particularly wet ceiling, in fact. It could almost be called a dripping ceiling, except this is less of a drip and more of a shower.

When Ash finally speaks, he sounds very unhappy with the situation.]

Whoever's living on the fourth floor of the apartment building right in front of the northern entrance of the Goldenrod Tunnel, could you please answer the door when I knock? Or at least check your bathtub and your Water-types? I felt the first drops around dinnertime. If this doesn't stop within twenty minutes, I'm contacting the building manager.

[Flooding your building is neither polite nor nice, guys.]

Ah... what a dreary predicament.

I assume knocking on their door produces no results.

video;

[captainash]

It doesn't, but the walls are thick enough that I can't tell if they're ignoring me or just not home. Or if any of their Pokémon are there.

[sassymaru]

Can one of yours perform a bit of... covert exploration?

[You know, teleport in, check it out...]

video;

[captainash]

...Which is least likely to cause a panic if it's caught: a spider, a bat or a ghost bearing a mask?

[His infiltration options are somewhat limited, to say the least.]

video;

[sassymaru]

I would say a small spider is least likely to be noticed.

video;

[captainash]

Think that also applies to a metre-tall spider that looks like it has a face on its body?

video;

[sassymaru]

A-ah. That. May be a bit more difficult to hide.

video;

[captainash]

Yeah, she couldn't even hide under their couch. Under their kitchen table, maybe, but that's... not the most effective hiding place.

video;

[sassymaru]

Nothing you have is capable of teleportation?

video;

[captainash]

Nothing. I... kinda specialize in Normal-types, and Girafarig isn't really the teleporting type.

video;

[sassymaru]

Then, maybe the bat would be a ... less intrusive option.

video;

[captainash]

He can get through any open window, too, which might be necessary at this point. I can't hear any footsteps from upstairs at all.

video;

[sassymaru]

Ah... a truly troublesome situation.

I advise the bat, in such a case.

video;

[captainash]

I'll send him, yeah. With any luck, he might even be able to identify the source of the water and turn it off if possible.

video;

[sassymaru]

And prevent you from finding yourself in a watery grave, as well.

video;

[captainash]

That should be avoidable still. I'm starting to wonder about long term damage to the ceiling though. Mold in a home is never pleasant.

video;

[sassymaru]

Mold?

Houses are capable of... mold?

video;

[captainash]

Sure, under the right conditions. ...Well, the wrong conditions, really. Leaky ceilings certainly don't help.

video;

[sassymaru]

Well that's -- horrifying.

You must fix the issue immediately!

video;

[captainash]

I'll do what I can, and so will Ambat. For the rest, we'll definitely need the building manager. He should have a list of people who can repair the damage and make sure nothing weird is about to grow in that ceiling.

video;

[sassymaru]

Well. In such case, you have my sincere wish of luck.
