[The feed opens on Joey and a Bisharp standing in front of a slot machine. Both wear ecstatic expressions as the machine dispenses coin-after-coin, and Joey holds a confused looking Dratini above his head as he cheers. Noise from the other machines and patrons occasionally cuts through the pair's exultation, but the majority of sound pouring through the feed comes from their cheers.]

Yo we did it! We made out like bandits!

[Joey thrusts the Dratini forward for the camera to see.]

Me and Hermos here have been killin' it on da slots, so dis lil' jackpot here marks twelve and a half grand we've managed to carve out! We got ourselves a big ol' chunk'a change and scored dis' heckin' baloon animal-lookin' Pokémon too! There's no stoppin' da wheels on da Joey Train!

[Joey looks over at his Bisharp.]

Dis guy? Dat's the Legendary Knight Hermos!

[machismost]

[ Kirishima's eyes warm with interest. ]

Oh, I haven't heard that legend yet. What's their story?

[infernofireblast]

[Loving the chance to talk about his monsters, Joey lays it on thick.]

Hermos is on'a da three Legendary Knights of Atlantis! Back in ancient times he and his brotha knights Timaeus and Critias defended da people of da land against da ahmies of dis really bad space rock called da Orichalcos. Da thing turnded da' people of Atlantis inta monstahs and stahted a big civil war! With dey're own king turnin' against them dese three knights were some'a da only ones to hold da line, but were cursed to take da form'a Dragons until my friends n' I freed em'.

[He looks back over to Bisharp again.]

I'm real lucky dat he ended up bein' here in dis world too, and doubly so with him bein' so good at slots!

[machismost]

[ He's certainly got an eager audience. Kirishima is absolutely the type to gobble up tales of heroism just like this. ]

Woah... So you're saying in the end the knights got turned into monsters too, but you freed them in your world.

And Hermos followed you here into the Pokemon world when you got pulled in? [ He looks like he's willing to believe it. ] He's not a Pokemon...?

[infernofireblast]

Well I mean yeah he's a Pokémon right now, but it's still definitely Hermos!

[Joey rummages around in his deck box and produces a card, showing it to the camera.]

Da same knightly spirit still shines troo, and it ain't weird for him to be stuck as a Pokemon eitha since he was a monstah last time we ran into each otha' too. Just means I gotta work with whatevah abilities he's got now and, of course, get'im da digs to look his knightly best!
