[The face that pops up on the feed is way too close to the camera, nostrils flared, teeth bared like a wild animal. Guess who just got kicked out of Mom's house for the second time.]

Are you tellin' me I could wake up any random ass day and outta nowhere be back at square one for no reason whatsoever?! Is this some kinda sick joke?! Who the hell took all my money?!

[A sigh, he's still mad, but it feels good to get that out of his system.]

At least I know who took my team... [He pauses.] ...Wait, why the hell did they take everyone but Martini? Where the hell was Martini?!

[The frantic movements of the camera manage to catch a glimpse of said Martini, the deino just smiling behind her dad and giving a quadruped-style shrug. Haha, yeah man, it's crazy. Where was she??]

[As Winston's second day at sea starts, he feels the distinct creeping anxiety of his mind preoccupying itself with worry over what could be happening back home in his absence.]

[Normally, he'd try reading to pass the time and keep his mind busy from those thoughts- but Mom only packed him two books, and he's already read through both of them cover-to-cover multiple times by now. ...he started to realize somewhere in the middle of his fifth re-read of the trainer's guide that he wasn't actually working to absorb the information. By that point, he was just glancing down at the turning pages to feel some amount of productivity as he's stuck waiting for the cruise ship to reach Kanto.]

[Setting the books back in his bag, Winston opens his Pokégear, thumbing through its features until he reaches a text posting option. ...it can't hurt to put something out there, right?]

Hi.

Current events outside of my control have left me temporarily unemployed, seeing as I'm now stuck in a different dimension from my former workplace.

I know- we've ALL been there before... /endsarcasm

While I'm sure my coworkers will be understanding of the situation and leave my spot open until I return... I don't see that reunion happening anytime soon. So in the meantime: if anyone could point me towards a job listing in the Kanto area, I would appreciate it a lot.

Many thanks.

- Winston Zeddemore

Oh god, I fucked this up!!

[It's Dandy and he's frantic, which is at least a step up from his usual pissbaby attitude.]

Is there any way to get these things smaller again, I totally forgot to buy one of those stupid forever rocks for my dog- LOOK!!

[The feed zips over to Dandy's newly evolved Hakamo-o, sitting on a bench and kicking her feet. Once she realizes the camera's on her, she looks up and smiles, giving a little wiggle of her fingers in a friendly wave. Heheh, she has fingers now~

She is also absolutely fine compared to her trainer. The feed goes back to Dandy, who still acts like it's the end of the world.]


She's not gonna grow another head, is she?! I can so not afford to feed another head, dammit!!

--Oh, hey, it records!

[There's a pale, black-haired young woman on the network today, inspecting her new 'Gear. She has a little Noibat chilling in her mass of hair like an adorable bat-shaped barrette. She studies the Pokegear seriously for a moment or two before noticing something else:]

Oh snap, and it broadcasts! Sweet!

Hey! Barkeep guy! You were right, that Mom lady was really weird! She gave me a lot of snacks, though, so that's cool.

But, uh, I kind of. Already ate them all? Look, I got carried away, okay? Does anyone know if there's anything else to eat on, what is it, Route 29? Besides the berries, I mean. My girl here - [she gestures to her new Noibat pal] - really digs them buuuuuut I still think they seem kinda suspect. For me to eat, that is. Thanks, peeps!

I know I can't have been the only one who ended up as a pokemon during the weekend. Which was a really unique experience, don't get me wrong. I certainly feel like I've gotten a better understanding of what it is like to be a pokemon, but.

Well.

Has anyone else been dealing with any... unusual urges since then?


[Armin just had a passing urge to beat up a small child for a french fry. Please tell him he is not the only one dealing with this.]

[When the video starts, Dandy isn't looking exactly thrilled. Despite this, the joyful sounds of his Pokemon can be heard in the background because right behind him are his giant skuntank and equally giant toucannon cooing and fussing over the egg he got from those legend seeking weirdos.

Even Martini, the Pokemon he always used as an excuse as to why he shouldn't have an egg, seems to be getting in on this. Although instead of chowing down, when she manages to wiggle away with the egg, all she can do is nuzzle it and make weird yet oddly content growling noises. Almost like a deino-style purr.

They're all crazy for this egg. Too bad Dandy can't say the same.]


So...like, is there a point to eggs or am I missin' something here? All I do is lug this thing around and nothing's happened yet.

Can't even put it in a ball... Or teach it sweet moves...

I'm seriously this close to eating the damn thing.

[And at that, all three of his girls in the background bristle up in protest, even the comfey around his neck stirs and gives him a very disapproving look.]

Oh, whatever.

Wingulls wheel and dive in the salty springtime air of Olivine City's harbor, as white as the gleaming sides of the ship moored directly below. The S.S. Aqua isn't an infrequent visitor in the slightest, but this time it's for a very special occasion! Colorful banners stream from the sides, each one proudly declaring the word PROM in glittery font.

The boarding starts around noon on Friday, and the sight of the huge ship alone is enough to get many people and Pokemon swept up in the party atmosphere. The captain is even there when the ramp is rolled out, wanting to welcome each otherworlder onto the boat personally with a hearty handshake and (mentioning he's a renowned 'people reader'), a recommendation on what part of the cruise he thinks they'll like best based solely on a glance. Weirdly enough, guests might find that he's usually right!

Unsurprisingly, it takes a good long while for everyone to get on board and accounted for, which leaves each guest with plenty of time to find their rooms, dump their luggage, let their Pokemon out to stretch their legs a little, and finally head back to the deck to wave goodbye to the harbor as the SS Aqua heads out onto the open water.

IT'S FINALLY HERE, THE BEST TIME OF YEAR!

[everett didn't you just post a thing like two weeks ago? shh this is important]

[Around 8 AM, a livestream gets posted to the network. There's some amount of fumbling as Egon tries to get the camera to stay still. When the PokéGear finally stabilizes, Egon takes a step back, adjusting his glasses and clearing his throat. Ray Stantz can be seen in the background with an excited expression on his face, as well as a Parasect resting on a nearby counter. A small chunk of the mushroom lip looks as if it has been cut off, though the Parasect doesn't seem to mind this.]

Good morning. I'm Dr. Egon Spengler, and I am here with Dr. Raymond Stantz and Amanita the Parasect to understand the affects of the mushrooms growing on a Parasect and/or Paras.

[He picks up a chunk of mushroom from behind the camera and holds it closely to the camera. The cap appears to be pink with dark yellow spots on it, while the gills appear to be a dark brown color.]

Now, as we know, this fungus enters an almost parasitic relationship with a Paras in its early life, and upon evolving, completely overtakes the host and acts as the "brain" of the entire creature. If the mushroom is removed from the Parasect, the creature ceases movement entirely. These mushrooms release poisonous spores, but these spores can be steeps and boiled to remove their toxicity and are used in some traditional medicines.

[He places the mushroom next to Amanita, who barely reacts. She simply continues to stare unblinkingly at the wall.]

Today, we are going to be observing what effects these mushrooms have upon human beings upon being ingested in their base forms. Our hopes is that these fungi may be able to mitigate physical pain. We will be recording this in order to further analyze whatever data we collect after the experiment has concluded. Ray and I will both be ingesting approximately 500 milligrams of fungi each.

[Egon picks up his piece of mushroom, and Ray does likewise. Ray grins, giving Egon a thumbs up.]

You ready, Egie?

Ready.

[They both eat the mushrooms and wait for the effects to settle in. The initial reactions are quite boring, with Egon droning on about fungi reproduction and how mushrooms have been used in medicine in his dimension and Ray playing with Amanita and occasionally interjecting his tidbits and facts into Egon's lecture.

About an hour later, however, things have...definitely changed up a little.]

this can only end poorly. )

[As usual, Rose's broadcast starts with a very close up of her. She has...some sort of pink liquid staining her cheeks and neck in haphazard smears. It looks like whatever it is also got into her hair.]

Oh, hello everyone!

[The gear pulls back and whatever that pink stuff is, Rose has it smeared all over the front of her cream colored sweater. And...over her shoulder, in the background, is a very wet, very sticky looking....pink Vulpix? Sitting on spread out newspaper. There's a big plastic mixing bowl on the floor, too. What has happened here?]

Does hair dye work on Pokemon fur? This....er....this isn't very feasible. There's fruit punch everywhere!

And Pixy very, very, very much wants to be pink. He did all this himself! Well...someone who I think is a popular bidoof helped....

[That's what happened.]

While leaving my Dratini and Pyukumuku to socialize, I found that they had somehow laid eight eggs in my absence. Although initially perturbed by this, I decided to take this opportunity and offer these eggs to the general public. In addition to Pyukumuku and Dratini eggs, I am offering other Pokémon eggs, such as Solosis, Drifloon, Squirtle, and Inkay.

I forgot to mention that there may be a chance of either the Dratini or Pyukumuku to be shiny.

I will not be charging for these for now. You are free to request for as many or as few as you would like, within reasonable limits. If you have any questions, please ask.


[OOC Note: Grab your eggs at this OOC post! All eggs are free, please be nice and leave some for other people, too!]

[Oh look, it's Dandy, and he's making a post where he isn't dying from freezing temperatures this time around! In fact, it looks like he's in a cozy hotel room right now, the elements are no longer a problem. It seems like his collection of monsters has grown too, because those are definitely the familiar flowers of a comfey around his neck. More Pokémon need to double as accessories.]

What's shakin', it's Dandy, and guess who's open for business? As resident first class alien hunter, catching rare beasties just comes naturally to me. ...But normally I make, like...money off of it... So I figured, why the hell not, I'll start offering my services to those of you who wouldn't know how to catch a monster if your life depended on it. For a price.

And just to show you I'm serious, I already got something I'll think you'll like.

Check it.

[Dandy pans the feed over to the other end of the room where two of his Pokémon, a tiny deino and a massive skuntank, stand guard on both sides of an...upside down laundry basket. Or, well, guard is a generous word. It's more like the skuntank is just sitting there, staring into the feed with a great amount of concern and the deino is mischievously chomping at the air in front of whatever's under the basket.

The point is, there IS something in there, and it looks to be one of those new Pokémon crawling about. A Grookey for those who know their monsters, the little green monkey looks just as upset as any other, although with the added bonus of getting chomped at and being under a basket. Thankfully it's not in any REAL danger, even Dandy's smart enough to avoid community service. Ick.]


I already got some kinda monkey...thing, but I know these little bastards are hard to come by. Best offer can have it. As for any future services, just tell me what you want, and I'll go bag that bad boy for ya. Just as long as you pay in advance. Everybody wins, baby~

[And then...there's a pause.]


...Hey, so, speaking of, I kiiiiiiinda need help grabbing my own guy. It's got absolutely nothing to do with my skills, but I'm gonna need one of...hang on a sec... [Dandy starts rummaging behind himself before turning around and whipping out a magazine clipping. He holds it up for the feed, a colorful photo of someone surfing on their mantine while people watch excitedly from the sandy beach. There's a speech bubble scribbled in marker above a woman's head that reads I LOVE DANDY, but he tosses the page so fast you might miss it if you blink.] HA! This...blue...uh, flappy thing. Can't catch the water ones if I don't have one myself, right? And I need this one, for...personal reasons. I don't really, like, look for certain ones for myself, so you KNOW it's for a good cause.

The Dandy wants it cause.

Hey guys! I've been spending a little time lately looking for pieces of media that's similar to media in my home dimension, and look at this!

[He picks up a "Dungeons and Dragonites" rule book in excitement.]

I used to play this all the time! Well, not this version, but it looks pretty similar to Ghosts and Gargoyles! I would spend hours crafting backstories for my new characters, and spend even more hours going on adventures with my friends in these.

[He flips through the book and it takes him a good moment to remember that he's on video.]

Oh right! My point is that I wanna try this out! I'm sure that there's others in this dimension who'd like to try this out, but I'd be happy to teach you the basics if you're new to this. Plus with these video chat features, we don't have to worry about being in person in order to hold a session!

Contact me if you're interested! I'm just dying to see the differences in this game firsthand!

[Gaige has, for the past week or so, been setting out on a trip to the Ruins of Alph without much in the way of broadcasting, but certain circumstances had brought her to needing the advice of the people, and so a video transmission pops up on the network.]

OKAY, hi - hi guys, it's me, your gal Gaige, etcetera, etcetera-

[She rushes through her usual routine to a shaky camera, and a loud crying in the background.]

So, you know those new Pokemon that started showing up? The ones terrified of, like, everything...? Turns out loud noises and explosions and basically EVERYTHING that makes me me comes under that.

[The camera shifts slightly as she tries to balance her 'Gear and something blue, amphibious, and crying in her arm. From what can be seen from Gaige's face, she looks tired, and trying really hard not to panic.]

It's been...uh, I don't even know - it feels like hours since he started crying? I can't get him to stop. [A weighted exhale, and the sobbing newt in her arms just accentuates her point.] I really want him to stop. I just, you know, babies aren't really my ball park? Kind of never really planned this kind of thing. I only ever anticipated robot children! I'm way too young to be a mother!

[Her voice raises in distress, which only makes the baby more upset. It's a vicious cycle.]

Look, some of you guys have got to have experience with this kind of thing, right? You gotta help me out here.

Anyone got a recommendation for good batteries in this damn place?

[ the video feed opens not on jack's face, but on a hotel room desk. he's got several batteries that look like they could fit into a flashlight or other types of utilities sitting on the desk, spread out. the only other things visible are his scarred hands and most of his upper body, wearing a black shirt. the feed cuts off at the shoulder.

his skitty, crybaby, is also in the shot, gently batting at some of the smaller batteries. ]


Every single one of these has died after an hour of use, maybe. Some were dead when I put them in.

Back in my world, batteries actually lasted for a decent amount of time.

[ jack makes a scoffing noise and leans down out of sight of the camera to get something. meanwhile, the skitty on camera stiffens, and then wiggles, running across the screen to chase something, clattering some of the batteries.

... that something being a joltik, bouncing across the screen as crybaby chases it to the other side.

jack can be seen looking up, a flash of a scarred face and white hair. ]


What are you --

[ he reaches up to turn off the gear as he gets up after his skitty. ]

Soooooo.

[The feed starts a little abruptly, focused on an Elgyem cradled in the crook of someone's arm. The Elgyem in question makes hopeful grabby-hands towards the Pokegear, her handlights blinking.]

Got this little girl recently- from a guy called Ford Pines. She's kind of like, the closest I've come to actually trying to take care of a human baby. You know, Ray likes to call all the Pokemon we get our "children", but this one's the first that's really.. humanoid, I guess? Dunno.

But that's not- that's not what I wanna talk about.

parenthood is exhausting when your weird child can break your brain )
