[Video - Attention Duelists!]

[infernofireblast]

[[Hey folks. I wanted to preface this by notifying you that this post is supposed to go out to those individuals who play/participate in the Yu-Gi-Oh game of Duel Monsters. If you're character is from a Yu-Gi-Oh series then (obviously) you're likely familiar with it but, if your character has learned of while here in Victory Road, then that could work as well. Either way though, this is supposed to be a gathering for the cardsharks to be able to engage their favorite game so please bear that in mind.]]

[The feed boots up from what appears to be the booth of a fast-food restaurant. Red-and-white decor and wide windows can be seen all around, as well as the beeps and boops of the checkout counter, but an excited blonde youth occupies the center of the broadcast.]

Hey der duelists! Joey Wheeler comin' to ya live from Goldenrod again! I just got back from finishin' da tour'a Johto so it's time ta kick back and enjoy da holidays! Every time Christmas rolls around I always get da pahty bucket from da local chicken joint n' gatha' round with my friends, so imagine my surprise when I find out dey got pretty much da same place here in da Pokémon world!

[Joey pans the camera around the restaurant lobby.]

So, I got an invitation to all my fellow duelists: Seems der's a pretty good chunka people who play Duel Monstahs in dis world, so I figured it'd be a good time if we all got togetha and got some propah duels in! Sure der's Pokémon battles here in dis place, but nothin beats a good ol' game'a Duel Monstahs. If you're all jonesin' as hard as I am den's der a resahvation at da Goldenrod K.F.T. by da Bike Shop on Christmas Day! Dinnah's on me fa dose' who wanna come, so hit me up if you're lookin' ta join!

[Grinning widely, Joey salutes the camera in an exaggerated fashion before cutting the feed.]

[Sir, sir what are you even talking about? But there's bits and pieces that's got her attention.]

Would spectators be allowed? Admittedly, I'm curious as to what exactly this has become. [THERE'S NO SOULS INVOLVED ANYMORE, SHE KIND OF LIKES THAT IDEA.]

[infernofireblast]

I mean dey pretty much played duel monstahs back in your time, so it's only right we getcha squared-away on playing dah modern version right?

[Joey flashes a thumbs-up.]

No big bad dahk god lurkin' in da shadows for dis version too, so all da bettah for actually enjoyin' yaself eh?

[ahew_kha]

If you want to say I was playing it, if by technicality. [She should not be joking about it like she is, but by this point she's... realized what's going on and a good while in that weird world between life and death makes it a moot point for her.]

I would hope not! Though I don't think many dark anything are particular fans of me anymore. [It would... make sense, really. The light in the darkness, all that particular brand of nonsense.]

Mm, I suppose it would be a bad idea to have Pokemon with us, but I... don't know if Sadiki would particularly agree to go back into his ball around a bunch of people he doesn't know.

[infernofireblast]

Dey got places dat can watch ya Pokémon for ya while ya run and do stuff, and dey even get to play with otha people's Pokémon while dey're der too so it's like a playdate!

[Something occurs to him and a grin spreads across his face.]

Only fittin' dey get ta hang out and make new friends while we're doin' da same eh?

[ahew_kha]

[Sir, what are you up to? Though she seems to light up somewhat at the notion of these places that can watch Pokemon and that... sounds nice, actually.]

That might not be a bad idea, actually. I think some socializing could do him and a few of the others some real good without my being around. Especially with people and Pokemon they aren't familiar with...
