[It's been a while since Ford has made a post of his own to the network. He's been busy with one thing after another. Primarily he's been focused on getting his Aurora League gym all set up and ready to go. More recently there was all the business with the Ultra Beasts and Aether to be dealing with.

Most recently, as a result of that business, he stormed into the Silph Co. building in Saffron and got himself dragged out again by the Jennies. So now here he is in a jail cell on charges of resisting arrest that he probably could have avoided if he wasn't a Pines and didn't have a natural inclination toward crime. Why does he still have his gear? It took him nearly fifteen minutes just to empty out most of his coat pockets and by that time the Jennies were over it.]


Greetings! I have an announcement to make. For those of you who haven't met me, my name is Dr. Stanford Pines, and about a year ago I began construction on the Horizon Gym on Johto Route 36. That construction has finally been completed. The grand opening is going to be postponed until such time as I can post bail. My plan is to have the museum doors unlocked by next Tuesday, with official challenges beginning on the Wednesday after.

[Why did he not wait until that Tuesday (and bail) to make this announcement? Because he's Ford Pines and, like everyone in his family, he can't be contained by a jail for very long. If his crime wasn't so minor he probably would have broken out by now, but relatively it's not worth the effort or the subsequent warrant for re-arrest. It's not like he can dodge that by skipping out on this universe, which used to be his go-to.]

I had planned to do something over Halloween, but as you can imagine those plans fell through. That was really my mistake. Halloween has never gone to plan in this universe and I don't know why I thought it would this year.

In the meantime I will be taking questions because, as you can imagine, I'm incredibly bored.

[He means about the gym-and-museum, but 'why are you in jail' or 'aren't you that guy with the Ninetales I keep seeing memes of' are valid questions.]

Hmmmmm-MMM!

[Ahh, the spray of the sea! Carly appears to be on a boat right now, stretching after she sets up the Pokegear somewhere it'll stay properly standing.

There appears to be a guy in shades standing not far from her, and he definitely isn't doing anything else. Not even twitching. It's, um...

Weird?
] Soo...Dirk and I are taking the ferry to Cianwood, since he's never been...

And...I'm not sure what to do? He hasn't really moved from this spot for. A while.

A few hours, actually, it's a little weird. I'm kind of glad I decided not to make Feebah 'surf' through all of this actually, otherwise I wouldn't even be here to see!

['Feebah', in question, is also near Dirk, the feebas glancing back when Carly says that. He seems a bit guilty.] ...This isn't about surf limits with small fish though. This is..um...

...About this! [She gestures in Dirk's direction.] What on earth do I do!

[It might also be about the fish if that fish keeps shifting awkwardly!!]

[For a post from Kazuki, the feed begins uncharacteristically silent. He isn't holding the camera-- it must be being held by one of his Pokemon, or propped up by something, because he's clearly in the shot, several yards from where his gear is.]

[Before him is a single Nihilego. It looks visibly nervous, but not aggressive. Yet. A good distance behind him are his Primarina, Altaria, and Ampharos, his three Pokemon that have hit level 100. They're watching the encounter between their trainer and the Ultra Beast with wary eyes, as if ready to spring into action at any sign of danger. Near his head is his Chimecho, gently ringing, slowly floating around the Nihilego in calm circles.]

[The Nihilego is distracted by the Chimecho. It turns around with a gentle, flowing motions, watching the Pokemon and making eerie, undulating cries in return. It reaches out a single tentacle as if it is thinking about touching the Pokemon, but doesn't. It's wariness slowly melts away into what looks like curiosity.]

[When he feels confident that the Nihilego isn't quite so wary of him, Kazuki slowly approaches. It quickly turns to watch him instead of the Chimecho, but doesn't react as though it means to attack. From a bag he was wearing at his side, he pulls out what looks like some kind of muffin. The Ultra Beast tilts its "head" and takes the treat from Kazuki's open palm. It pulls the food to its bell, and it just kind of disappears.]

[Kazuki continues to hold his open palm to the Nihilego. Like a shy young girl, it slowly reaches one of its tentacles out, while holding the other close to its bell, and touches his hand with it. Kazuki stays perfectly still, except for a slight incline of his head, like a bow. After a moment, the Nihilego bows back.]

[They both retreat a step back. The Ultra Beast cries softly, with a tone that sounds like... Gratitude? Then it simply turns and floats away. No altercation occurs. Kazuki turns towards the camera and walks up to turn it off.]

[This text appears a few minutes later:]


The others are right. You don't have to fight them. If you can read them right, they'll calm down, and they'll leave peacefully.

[It's a very familiar big pink face taking up most of the gear screen, but Rose is looking very concerned today.]

Hello everyone....

I was wondering how many others have tried communicating with our...displaced visitors? I think I might be getting somewhere, but...

[The gear bounces and shifts as Rose angles it to show a Poipole on the road behind her. It looks like they're somewhere just outside of Goldenrod, and none of Rose's Pokemon are anywhere to be seen.]

[The Poipole keeps moving down the way...then stopping and spinning around and drifting just a little ways back. Rose makes a graceful sweeping gesture with her free arm, waving towards the Ultra Beast and angling her hand down at the road beside her. The Poipole just repeats its back and forth.]


I think it wants me to go with it!

[It’s evening when the video opens, the video shows the sun is just about set in a field. It would be almost a calm scene if it wasn’t for Ray grinning like an idiot at the camera. He can barely contain his excitement but he gets himself to speak in a hushed voice.]

So you know those weird dimensional rifts we’ve been getting? The one that’s spewing out those interdimensional beings? Well guess who I found while I went out training today.

[He turns the camera around and OH GOD WHAT IS THAT?

The Stakataka isn’t looking at the camera right now, instead they’re just… gently crouching down and poking at a tiny Pokepuff that Ray presumably gave them.]



Yeah I ran into these guys today, and they’re surprisingly nice! I guess if you’re able to tell them that you don’t mean any harm they don’t want to attack you! Which, I guess that makes sense once you think about it. Sure we wake up in another dimension out of nowhere, but we have the convenience of having people easily explain to us what’s going on and that we’re not in any danger!

Which, I’m not exactly sure this guy over hears understands a word I say. I’ve been trying to communicate with this poor guy but they don’t even respond when I shout “Hey, you!” at them. [True to his word, the Stakataka doesn’t look up from their Pokepuff. Ray looks over fondly at the hulking beast as if it was a newly adopted pet] Still, I like to think I made great progress in a day!

I do miss fighting horrifying ghosts and monsters, don’t get me wrong. I would give anything to fight Cthulhu or the Boogieman again, but it’s nice being able to befriend these guys. It’s not every day you can say that you’re able to befriend a giant sentient rock structure from another dimension.

[The Stakataka suddenly looks up over at Ray, and stomps over to him. If Ray’s worried by him suddenly moving, he doesn’t show it as he just lightly looks over to them. They then lift a large leg aiming right at Ray’s head…

And they gently start patting his head, really delicately that you’d almost think that the Stakataka was terrified of crushing Ray if they put any amount of pressure on him. Ray laughs happily at this.]


See? Stuff like this never happened at home! These guys are really great!

[...Well that happened.]

So hey...

Did anybody lose an over-sized armchair?

In the ocean?

Because one washed up on shore today and I think it's the weirdest thing I've ever found washed up.

[Korra turns the gear and that sure is a very soggy and sandy armchair, half on it's side, right on the wet part of the beach. It's hard to tell what color it is aside from 'dark', and stuffing is oozing out. That is one sorry chair.]

I'm pretty sure this falls under my domain, and I really don't know the proper disposal protocol for chairs the sea doesn't want anymore. I'm thinking burn it when it's dry? I know Iquniq is voting for that idea.

[The stocky Arcanine does look preeeettttty eager to set the wreckage ablaze.]

I have obtained a new creature. Truly, one of brilliance, and prestige. And... shine.

Behold!

[He whips around, gesturing dramatically at the porch of his little beach cottage to reveal..]


A darling, shiny dinosaur! Astonishing, isn't it?

[Please note, this is a perfectly normal little Amaura. There is nothing shiny about it except for it's had its scales all nicely polished. And, you know, it has little diamonds on its sides. But apparently Shadowmaru feels otherwise.]

 Action: Goldenrod

[Anyone wandering Goldenrod will see an exasperated Connor with his legs and torso mostly stuck inside the bubble of an Araquanid. Said Araquanid looks cheerful as it strolls down the roads, his trainer safely tucked away inside his bubble. A Magnezone follows behind, beeping in confusion. Get close enough, and you'll hear Connor alternating between pleading with the Araquanid to put him down, and trying to reassure the Magnezone that everything is fine.]

Video:

[Connor is finally out of the Araquanid's bubble, and has a Beheeyem floating beside him. He looks curious as he studies it, before glancing over at the camera.]

Crystal evolved today. I was reading the Pokedex entry on Beheeyem, and it says that it can manipulate memories. It even implies that my memories may have already been overwritten. If they have, would I have any way of knowing?

[More of a rhetorical question, really... but still.]

I was wondering if there are any Pokedex entries in particular that you've found disturbing, or interesting. Given the picturesque world we seem to live in, some of the entries are kind of dark, aren't they?
starry_forehead: (Dipper Pines here)
[personal profile] starry_forehead
[Hey pokemon world, there's a cardboard sign in front of the camera. It reads, Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained. You can also hear a lot of kids in the background. And the sign goes away to show...yup it's Dipper. He's standing inside what looks like a kids restaurant.]

Welcome to the first pokemon world edition of Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained. We're on, Anomaly number 13 "The Pizza Parlor." Now I know what you're thinking. Dipper, this is totally just a normal place, where kids come and play games, eat pizza and learn to fear animatronics, right?

[The Camera shows scenes of all three of these things, ending with a creepy looking animatronic Mienshao. It is dressed like a ninja and very purple. The camera goes back to Dipper and you can see the group of animatronic ninja pokemon in the background.]

Wrong! This is no ordinary pizza place. I found it on a map that I got at the end of the last summer for doing the scavenger hunt. So there's definitely something different about this place. Plus I've been hearing some rumours since I got here about strange things happenin-

[Whatever pokemon is holding the camera seems to make a noise and Dipper glances behind him. Have those animatronics moved? Probably not. He looks back.]

So we're going to investigate the place and see what we can find out!

[And we go to Dipper investigating the place, talking to people. And probably something you at home might note is that the animatronic Mienshao Ninja, now seems to be orange. And around. Like a lot. Like Dipper is starting to notice. He glances over at the camera as another person almost runs off, claiming that nothing is wrong here he just really needs to leave NOW. Totally nothing to do with animatronics! Also don't work the night shift here!]

Okay so there's something....huh, we might be getting lost, Moon. I think we've passed this one a few times.

[Dipper scratches his head and then turns around.]

Well so far there's the usual, the animatronics are creepy but that seems to be it. ...Maybe Nephelis just really liked pizza and-

[And as the camera looks away there's a zapping noise and a scream and then the camera drops to the ground. The gear is dropped and there's a sound of a fight before Dipper manages to grab the gear back up. He looks slightly singed. There's also very angry Gothitelle who had been holding the camera till now. And may have just attacked something.]

I knew it! It's....

[The camera is now pointed at a beat up, now purple again Mienshao ninja animatronic. With a smug looking Rotom floating above it.]

Really!? Well I guess that explains the weird rumours, since I got here! Faraday, really? This was-

[There's suddenly a voice in the background. Apparently someone heard the fight]

"Hey, what happened to Ninja Nickie! She's all beat up!"

Uh...and that concludes Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained. Tune in next time and maybe we won't be filming this from a jail cell... Run!

[Dipper will pull the Rotom in the pokeball and make a break for it with his other pokemon. So much for the first episode.]

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!!
cyan_maid: (Unsure...)

[When everything went weird, Jane had lost track of Alex, and she's been silent on the network while trying to track the other girl down. It's very possible, after all, that she got sent someplace quite far from Rock Tunnel and hadn't been deposited back. It's possible the tunnel has crap reception.

But when Jane finally emerges with the last member of her Bunnyquest list in hand (who is, by the way, the most ill-tempered Whismur that ever did exist), when she tries one more time to call Alex and the 'gear number isn't connected to anyone anymore...well, she has to accept the inevitable.]


Alex has gone home.

[Back to that - that island, and the ghosts, and the time loops...Jane lets out a defeated sigh, slumping against the outside rocks, her brow furrowed.]

...It's when these things happen that I think...why do I still keep the house around? Why don't I just shove off and travel, if there's no one to come home to? I guess...[She shakes her head.] I don't know. Maybe I keep it in case people return? In case they need a home when they get here, and not adventure all the time?

[Jane is quiet after that, looking out into the middle distance. It's warm out, cloudy but not overly so. There's a nice breeze that ruffles Jane's hair and makes the trees across the water rustle.]

Either way...I, uh, I'll show you all my new rabbity friends once I get back to Goldenrod. It might take me some time to get back there, I...I'd like to rest.

[Before she shuts the feed, Jane mutters to herself,] God dammit, I fucking hate Rock Tunnel...
bertall: (I'm like a new puppy - everybody)
[personal profile] bertall
[It's been a couple days since the craziness of the weekend has passed, and for Bertolt there's only been more of it. When the feed switches on it's at an angle, but Bertolt gives the pokegear a slightly concerned look. He's a little disheveled but overall he seems fine, so what could possibly--

Somewhere out of sight, a Pokemon screeches - the way it cracks in the middle points at it being a baby still - but regardless Bertolt winces.]


--Sorry, uh... If anyone is around Celadon, I... think it'd be a good idea to avoid the big Starmiebucks for a couple days. One of m--

[Another screech, and it starts to turn into a near-constant one and almost, almost starts to mimic the worst thing imaginable. This in turn earns a wince and a grimace, and Bertolt cuts the video, but just before he does? There's a short glimpse of a small, shiny Aerodactyl perched on top of the Starmiebucks logo.]

Sorry, again. She's been doing this all day and she won't come back into her ball (I don't think I can throw it at the right angle either), but one of my Pokemon decided to fly up to the roof of Starmiebucks and scream at people as they go in or leave. If you see her, don't worry too much. She might look a little scary but at most she'll just keep screaming. She's just very|

loud.

I'm hoping I can climb up when she tires herself out and get her down myself but so far she hasn't shown any signs of doing that yet.

I'm really, really sorry.




[It couldn't possibly be a ploy on the Aerodactyl's part to drive people away from Starmiebucks and towards FCAB instead, could it?]

[Hank's near the Olivine Pokecenter when the vid comes on. He had to stop in and get a new Pokegear and check the date and generally make sure that he's not lost his mind. He's back in clothes similar to the ones he was wearing when he first showed up, his warm winter coat hanging over his arm because that is a doozy of a goddamn weather change.]

Hey uh... [He says awkwardly, squinting at the Pokegear.] So I think I missed a couple of weeks or a month or something? But uh... it's just been a few days for me. Fuckin'... [he makes a motion around his head] ...brain is pretty bleary right now. But my room is gone and I gotta go get my pokemon and it's a hell of a walk back to Goldenrod without a backpack.

[He doesn't know if Connor is even still around or not. Does he even still have a home? Who'd think just a few weeks would throw someone for a loop.]

Is my partner here? Is anyone I know even still here? Some of you have to be. You've been here long enough to get your Pokemon premed and residency requirements, so someone's gotta be.

[He's a little mentally thrown. And he rubs his temple.] Right, yeah, just gotta look at my contacts. [He rubs his head like he has a headache, settling in. God, if only this were a hangover he could deal with it. Right now Hank's just really confused about where he's at, why's it suddenly so warm, where's his stuff, where are his pokemon, and he knows all the answers but that doesn't mean he's not stumbling around the thought process.]

Again.

....I've got one of her pokemon with me and I tried for like hours to get her on the gear so I think she's really gone.

[There's a Minior floating around Dipper, next to his normal Phantump.]

I don't really know anything more then that. I really wish this place-....

-anyway, If you need me, I'm probably going to be ...I don't know I'll think of something. Maybe I wrote off going off by myself to explore, too quickly....

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!

 [Connor seems subdued as he turns on the gear, eyes cast downward instead of making eye contact with the camera.]

I... wanted to inform you all that Hank is gone. His Pokemon are gone too, except for one.

[He pauses to sigh, swallows, and finally looks at the gear. Said Pokemon, Connie the Floette, hovers by Connor's side, sulking.]

I don't understand why I'm still here. We arrived here together, surely we should have left together?

[It's a question he knows there's no answer to, but he's distraught and trying to rationalise the situation. Maybe he's hoping someone will tell him that he'll leave soon, too. Because without Hank here, he feels lost. He's suddenly in this strange world alone. What seemed like a wonderful life has been turned upside down overnight. He had been excited for his first prom, but now he has nobody to go with and the whole affair has lost its appeal. Going back to their home in Goldenrod seems daunting. Won't it be empty all on his own?

He abruptly shuts off the camera.]

Hey, can anyone hear me on this thing? Am I using this right? Um, hi, I'm Webby! And I kind of need to get a hold of Unc... [she gives pause, as if doubting herself] Mr. Scrooge McDuck? Because I think I got kidnapped and sent to an alternate universe - like there's some lady called "mom" and she pushed me out of her house and now I'm kind of confused where I am right now.

Also... [Webby pauses, scrunching up her face in confusion. It seems like she's noticed something in the reflection of the screen.] Wait, where'd my beak and feathers go?!

[Action - Right outside Newbark Town]

[Normally being whisked away to a mysterious land and strange people would be right up Webby's alley. And it still is, but she's still reeling a little over the confrontation with Magica. Everything that happened just a few minutes ago makes her feel a little drained - and kind of worried. She hasn't seen Huey, Dewey, and Louie around, and they just made up with Scrooge. They were a whole family again. And Webby... really doesn't want to get taken away from that so quickly.

Especially after Lena... 

She shakes her head. An adventure is an adventure, and she's gotta stay positive! She's sure she'll run into the boys sooner or later. After doing a bit of wandering, she hears a rustle in the grass. And sticking its head out of the grass is a tiny white bunny with a bandage on its nose.]


Hi there, I'm Webby! 

[The bunny tries to duck back down into the grass, before Webby waves at it.]

Aww don't be scared! It's okay! You've got a bandage on your nose... did you get hurt?
