[video/action]
Video
[Was anyone sleeping, at this completely random hour of the early morning? Hopefully not, because there's going to be a commercial blasting across every communicator in Pokemon world, loud and proud and completely ridiculous.]
[Picture this commercial, but with some noticeable differences. First of all, it's not a pretty lady having difficulties going about her boring life: it's an Incineroar, looking sad and disappointed by his lack of options for entertainment. Is his brother here to fight with him? Is Big Hose Face? No! All he has is his sketchpad and some terrible coffee out of a machine. It's very sad.]
[But then! But then, introduce a Cofagrigus, one wearing a visor with dark hair attached to it and some blindingly white eyeliner that it got on its face somehow, holding up a sign that says FCAB. And suddenly the mood of the video changes, suddenly getting bright and aggressive and colorful, and with a new cast of characters, including an Electrode, a Mimikyu, a Blaziken, and a shiny Gallade. They're all clearly excited about FCAB, and the Cofagrigus is the leader here, pouring a cup of coffee while making all its shoulders on one side move in time to the beat.]
[The video ends with a Gyarados, holding a sign between its teeth that reads FIDDLEFORD'S COFFEES AND BANJOS: OPENING SOON EVERYWHERE before the video snaps off and the screen goes black.]
Action, Wherever Your Character Happens to Be
There's a new business in town! Which town? It doesn't matter, because this business is mobile.
It's local, but it's local everywhere.
At some point in August, a monstrosity made out of an abandoned train car will come stomping into town. It looks something like this, except it's longer and doesn't have a dinosaur arm. Instead, it simply trots around the area until it finds a Starmiebucks. Then it very deliberately settles down right across from the Starmiebucks, the arms and legs suck back up into the train car, and the whole thing sighs as it settles in.
After a few moments, the door to the train car busts open, and a small army of Voltorbs and a Charjabug bustle out and start patrolling around it. They may get a little aggressive trying to lure people away from Starmiebucks, but it's only because there's so many of them. They've been instructed not to zap anyone, punishable with banishment back to the Sevii Islands, and none of them want that.
Up close, the sign above the train car door reads "Fiddleford's Coffees and Banjos," and if you go inside, you'll find an independent coffee shop, one that is aggressively trying not to look like Starmiebucks. There are comfortable beanbag chairs around, and lots of throw pillows, and sometimes those throw pillows might be a Spheal. The walls are decorated with random photographs, usually black and white, taken from all over the regions. The main barista is the Cofagrigus from the advertisement, wearing an apron and a name tag that reads ROBBIE, and although he never speaks, he has the glowering disdain part down pat.
On the counter, there's a sign loudly and proudly declaring "Pumpkaboo Spice Lattes with ACTUAL PUMPKIN."
Come have a drink?
[OOC: Jean will answer responses to the ad, and he's around in the coffee shop as well. Let me know if you'd rather interact with the Pokemon for awhile first!]

[Video]
Grunkle McGucket would be so proud!!!
[Her eyes might be a little watery.
Wait--hold on! The person responsible for sending this video out just clicked in her head and excuse her while she lights up in excitement.]
JEAN!!!
[Video]
[Hey, kiddo! Jean's face lights up too, and he grins broadly at her.]
You're back!
[Video]
[She bounces happily because oh she's so happy more of her extended family is still here.]
Dipper and I are going on a quest to get my Pokemon back but once we're done we'll come visit and I totally want to try some coffee!!
[Video]
But no coffee for you, kiddo. Fiddleford made me promise to not give you or Dipper any coffee until you're older.
[Another smile.]
But I have some new hot chocolate recipes that I need some test subjects for, if you two would be interested in that.
[Video]
[Hey it was worth a shot okay!
The moment of frustration passes quickly because hot chocolate? New recipes? TEST SUBJECTS?]
Oh oh sign me up!! I'll totally be a test subject for new hot chocolate recipes! Pick me pick me!
[Video]
[Like Jean ever even intended on asking anyone else.]
Bring Dipper around the next time we're in the same place and I'll load you both up with hot chocolate.
[Video]
Deal! We'll be the best hot chocolate testers ever!
[She let's her arms drop and smiles brightly at him though there's a bit of a sad tinge to it. Slight but there.]
Grunkle McGucket would be really really proud.
[Video]
I hope so. I'm keeping his train car in good condition for him, and taking care of Buddy, so if he ever comes back...
[Well. If he ever comes back, he'll have his home and his work waiting for him.]
[Video]
[He has to. Then their little family here can all be together again.]
I really want to get to Lavender Town so I can find Pussywillow especially. Grunkle McGucket trusted me to take care of him so I have to get him back and make sure he's okay.
[Video]
Where are you guys now? I can swing by with FCAB and pick you up, give you a ride to Lavender Town.
[Video]
Wait, really? [That perks her up.] We're on Mt. Moon! Do you think you could get it here?
[Video]
[Just a minute. Jean sets the communicator down, and Mabel will be privy to him having a very one-sided conversation with a Trubbish.]
After we close up for the day, we'll head that way. We'll meet you at the path at the bottom of the mountain, okay?
[Where Jean can sell iced coffees to the day's hikers.]
[Video]
[Oh she can't wait to tell Dipper this is going to be the best!]
I can't wait to see you, Jean! And all your Pokemon!!
[Video]
See you soon! And don't eat any chocolate today, you have a lot of taste-testing to do when I pick you up!
[Video]
You got it! No chocolate until you get here!
I have to go tell Dipper!!!
DIPP-- [And there goes the feed.]
