text/action route 29

[dashdash]

S.O.S.

[Is that your Pokegear showing you have a message?]

this place is a mess.

we can't even get one city over.

[And another. And another.]

how are the roads clearing up?

is that don thing gone yet?

[Each one a single short phrase, as if hoping you'd pay attention and pick up if you get multiple alerts instead of one neat paragraph text, and minutes apart, as if all that time is needed to painstakingly check for spelling.]

i need to get to Goldenrod.

somebody fight me.

[There's only so much wandering and battling and begging for food she can take. She has a sense of direction of where she wants to go and what she needs to do, but with no way to get there, she's frustrated and bored and has no idea what the state of the world is like outside of Route 29 and New Bark Town. When's the world going to get put back together so she can have her Pokemon adventure?]

is the getting to goldenrod related at all to the fighting or what

[dashdash]

i gues and/or? but if I need to fight some1 get to goldenrod I will

[callbacks]

nah i dont think theres anyone you need to fight to get there
what about npc trainers on the road though i mean can you not even get to them while the roads are fucked?

[dashdash]

yeah figures. thatd be too easy
whatr npc trainers? are they strong? every1s too busy clearing trees and stuff to play

[callbacks]

npc
non player character
shit do they have video games where you come from this might get hard to explain

[hashtagafreakingghost]

they told us we should all pitch in to get them back to normal soon.
i don't know about earlier routes but we're trying to get the one to Goldenrod clear.

why do you need to get here?

[dashdash]

im meeting a freind there so i need to get there asap as posible!!! were going to play at the game center and go bike riding and have dinner dates and all sorts of stuf!!

whats blocking goldenrod? are there angry pokemn everywhere like it is out here? if some1 lends me a strong pokemon i feel like id be able to clear them easy

[hashtagafreakingghost]

that certainly is a reason to get there faster. and something to look forward to.
i don't know about the other paths, but the one from azalea sure was like that. completely overrun with poison pokemon, it was very dangerous.

i think there are also rules about lending higher level pokemon? they might not listen to you.

[dashdash]

poison... ill try not to eat any pokemon, thanks for the heads up. people are saying its not always like this though, that the roads used to be clear. did something happen? like a big boss guy getting dethrowned and now theres fighting over territories?

what are the rules?

[hashtagafreakingghost]

something DID happen...but it's kind of weird? we were all transported to the moon for prom and then when we returned some people were in different places and some things looked different and all the roads were blocked. like the whole world glitched.

i said sort of, i meant REALLY.

and these rules are only things i kind of remember my friends talking about. there are like "you need a certain number of badges" kind of rules. the more you have the higher level pokemon you can use. if you get them from someone else, if you catch them yourself it's fine? i think, someone was running around with a level 100 one and didn't have a single badge.

Yeah, they're really a mess right now, with all that debris.

[And a little bit later.]

uh they're getting cleared out. we're working on it!!

[...and even littler later.]

why are you texting like this?

[dashdash]

yay,good!

[lightning fast after Rakka's third text, and the others also come in quick succession now that she's foregone spell check]

im working on it too!!

its mor natural like this right?

like talking to people!

you get five mesages insted of just one so thats even better!!!!

also you dont have to pay for every single text like you do w. old phones

[charcoalfeather]

Yeah I
I guess it does feel more natural! :D

[But hang on, there's something interesting there...]

Wait a moment. You said that you have to pay to do stuff like this?

[dashdash]

right?

and yeah it kinda sucks

noone would give me thier number so i couldnt text them!!

but then i got a new phone and they still wouldnt tell me thier number so idk what their problem is

i used to think phones suck cause theyre hard to use and no one ever calls me anyways

these are hard to use but at least poeple talk to me

[charcoalfeather]

oh

well I don't think it's that bad here. And you get used to using the Pokegear really quickly.
but, uh, that's kind of because you have to. It's really important here.
And if you make some friends here I'm sure you'll get some calls!
