Mistakes were Made (Video)

[orangesmith]

[The video shows a very frantic Narancia, somewhere on Route 5 as he seems to be...hiding? There's a shiny Dreepy in the frame too, clinging to Narancia's head as it peers at the camera.]

There's this Onix that keeps following me, and it won't just go away. I tried catching it, but I ran out of balls and still didn't catch the thing. What do I do?

[Please help him, he doesn't want to have the thing try to hug him again.]

[Doppio tries to say something. He is promptly drowned out by the sound of dozens of Yamper barking right behind him.

So he huffs and turns on video instead. There are, indeed, a LOT of Yamper behind him.]

Let me know if you figure it out.

[orangesmith]

[Narancia stares at the Yamper. He says the first thing that comes to mind.]

Holy shit, that's a lot of Yamper! How many you got following you?

[In the not too far distance, an Onix can be heard calling out, looking for him. Narancia pales as he glances in the direction of the cry, trying to see if it's close.]

Fuck, I think it's coming back!

[epitaffio]

I don't know, like twenty? I think it might be less sometimes, but then more show up...

What if you go someplace small? Onix is pretty big, right? It's not like it can follow you everywhere!

[Unlike Yamper, which are very small and very slippery.]

[orangesmith]

I could try when I get to Cerulean, but the Onix cries when I ignore it.

[Have you ever heard an Onix cry? It's loud, annoying, and Narancia can barely go a couple minutes before caving and hugging the poor thing to get it to stop.

Speaking of the Onix, there's another Onix call, closer this time. Narancia starts talking quieter in hopes he won't be found.]

All I know is it showed up after those little Pokémon went away, and I don't know why.

[epitaffio]

... Those little Pokémon? Do you mean the Snorunt?

[Doppio had a feeling they might be behind what's happening to him, but...]

Are they going to fuck with people like this every year?!

[orangesmith]

I guess? I tried catching one, but didn't succeed...

[Wait.]

Did they do this?! [Narancia yells, forgetting to be quiet. There's another Onix call moments later, and within moments the Onix is in frame, giving Narancia the biggest puppy dog eyes you can imagine.]

Crap! [So much for hiding!]

[epitaffio]

... You know... That doesn't seem so bad. It's just one.

[Three sets of Yamper front paws are jumping in and out of frame at the moment, seemingly trying to jump on Doppio.]
