[Oh look, there's a bunch of Pokémon on the screen. A Banette seemed to be in a deep discussion with a Lucario as a Meowth snoozed on top of a backpack. The camera shuffles a bit before it stops moving, and Dipper steps into the screen.]

I've been here almost two months now, and look at this team!

[Wait. There's members missing. Dipper shoves the Lucario aside a bit to show a Seaking with a small pine tree splotch on its side. As he's doing this, two more Pokémon appear on the screen, an Eevee and shiny Zorua fighting over a sock. It's clearly Dipper's since it's obvious he's missing one. He hears the noise and turns around with an irritated noise.]

Fay! Tyrone! Stop it!

[Fay drops it, which leaves Tyrone to pull the sock away and give it back to Dipper. So that's where it went. Time to take his shoe off and make everything alright. As he's putting the sock on, his attention is on Fay.]

Isn't she cool? I looked it up on the Dex, and apparently she's supposed to be red and black. She hatched from an egg I got after that whole ghost mess. So that makes her a shiny since she's blue and black instead. She's not any different otherwise from a normal Zorua. So that just confirms the theory that shinies are only special in color. For some reason she really likes socks and keeps stealing them. I never get them back, so she's either eating them, or she's burying them.

[He looks more seriously at the screen now.] So if you find randomly buried socks, I don't want them back. Please. Just leave them there.

[On another serious note.] Has anyone tried to eat Vanillite's?

[So. That's a Linoone on the feed right now. A ridiculously overweight Linoone who's trying very hard to sleep on this bed here, but he's well aware he's being filmed right now. He wants to ignore it, really, but Komasan's voice can be heard from behind the 'gear. Life's tough.]

Yosh! This is Isamu, zura. [The Linoone tries to roll onto his side, away from the camera.] He's gotten very lazy lately, but now that I own him, I have to make things right, zura!

[The feed then gets obnoxiously close to the Pokemon's face, and Isamu can't help but give a little squeaky groan.]

Isamu is a good Pokemon, he's special, and I've been letting him down by allowing him to sleep all the time, zura! From this point on, we're gonna be training until he's back in battling shape, zura!

[Isamu does absolutely nothing in response to this.]

Ah...but... [Komasan's voice begins to falter.] ...he might need some encouragement, z-zura...

[Action]

[So then, anyone in Goldenrod might spot some weirdo and his round Linoone jogging through the city, the two of them wearing matching black and neon-green...tracksuits. As always, Komasan's Dunsparce rides on his shoulders, and occasionally the group stops for a break and get water downed by his Ludicolo.

It's all just very strange.]
sneezelikeakitten: (♠ Wasn't coming in a hurry)
[personal profile] sneezelikeakitten
[All you can see is feet moving back and forth across grass, the occasional blip of an Eevee popping up on the screen. When the screen finally stops, a sigh could be heard, the view changing from the grass to the face of a rather confused looking kid.]

Okay. Remain calm, Dipper. This isn't California, or Gravity Falls, and this cat thing isn't in your imagination.

[It takes a moment for Dipper to realize that his device is recording him. Deep breath.]

If there's anyone out there who can hear me, my name is Dipper Pines! I think I'm stuck in some sort of video game dimension, and these things called Pokémon are what I'm supposed to battle with! Also, if you see or have met a girl named Mabel Pines, she's my sister. Long brown hair, headband, braces, and really friendly.

[He looks down at the Eevee beside him, mumbling to himself.]

I'm either stuck in a game or I really need to get some sleep....

[Anyone in the area will see Dipper after the broadcast sitting on the ground with his new little friend flipping through the Trainer's Handbook. Seems he's rather intent on finding out everything he can about his current situation.]

[There are a lot of things you don't expect when you're Jane Crocker. You don't expect the entire world to shift scenes in the blink of an eye, floating in the ruins of a golden moon one second and waking up in what looks to be a normal, sunny bedroom the next. You don't expect some woman whom you've never seen before in your entire life to come in, claim to be your mother, shove a backpack into your arms and kick you out of the house with vague directions to a - a laboratory? And you certainly don't expect to be given what you're darn tootin' sure is a Pokeball once you get there, and as soon as you go, are again booted out towards the only dirt road outta town: Route 29.

So forgive her if she spent the last night in town, pounding on the door of her "mother"'s house and demanding to be let back in and given an explanation. When her video comes on this morning, it shows a very tired, bespectacled teenage girl with prominent buck teeth looking about 110% done with everything around her.]


...Okay, it's on. I think. [She squints, as if looking for something on the Pokegear to in fact indicate it is on, before continuing.] Um...hello? I'm basically going on a hunch that this...weird thing can be used as a communicator of sorts. Almost like FaceTime on a smartphone, right? I-I really hope so, or else I'm making calls into the goshdarned aether. [She sighs, shaking her head.] Anyway. If someone out there knows exactly how someone can wake up in what should very well be a video game that isn't supposed to suck you into a virtual reality, and if there's a way for me to leave, I'd greatly appreciate it. I...was sort of in the middle of something. [A look of hesitance crosses her face, as if...she may be asking to go back, but she sure as fuck doesn't want to at the moment.] I'll be in this...New Bark Town place for a little longer, if you need to know where I am.

- Oh, and, one more thing? [The video blurs as it shifts to a very pink creature that's quietly munching on some trail mix by Jane's side.] Not that she isn't cute, but, um...is this really a Pokemon?

[Action]

[True to her word, Jane lingers in town for the day. The pink Pokemon - Audino, her Pokedex has explained - seems happy to sit nearby and play with the hood on her unusual attire. This seems to be proving endearing enough to get Jane to smile despite herself, but given how warily she looks at the natives, it seems she'd do well with some sort of human conversation that doesn't tend to repeat itself.]

[Video]

[Hanna's had a pretty interesting day so far. He met a woman who said she was his mom, which as far as he's concerned, is really fucked up. He got the most precious pokemon friend ever, talked to a professor, and is now wandering route 29. It's in his wandering though, trying to fluff over the fact that he's here, he isn't being held up by gun point, and is instead living a childhood dream, that he realizes something.

Before he'd been so overwhelmed by everything that it hadn't registered, but now? He was just walking, everything was calm, and-] Oh my god this music is everywhere.

[He's talking to the screen because he's not going to complain to his Noibat who probably has way better hearing and thus suffering more than him by far.] What do they have around here? Speakers in the trees? I don't understand where it's coming from, but as far as music goes, it kind of sucks. Like I always imagined having my own life soundtrack, but i've endured only like, what? Three hours of this and it's already stuck in my head. Please tell me it changes every once in a while. Please.

Cause this is like some kind of torture.


Action

After the realization that no, this music doesn't stop, and complaining to everyone about it, Hanna has decided to take a break and open up that lunch his...mom packed. It's nice, obviously made with love and he's just going to stare at it for a little bit, taking it in before grabbing his fork and taking a bite.

He can't say he isn't disappointed when it doesn't taste like what his mom used to make, but there's that same quality of 'i made this for my son' that kind of gets him to chew slower, appreciate it more, and after each bite he kind of sighs and takes a deep breath. For all that he had been pushing aside, trying to keep up the hype of just being here? Well. "Mom's" lunch seems to take the cake over being moments away from being shot any day.

Amelia, who had been flying around looking for food of her own to eat, smart little thing that she was, flutters to a stop on a branch, big ears twitching and turns back towards her over enthusiastic trainer. Something's wrong, obviously, and she'll flutter back, landing right next to his lunch on his knee, squeaking up at him.

"Huh? Naw, it's all good, Amelia," He says, wiping his nose with is sleeve and pushing at his eyes with the heel of his palm, "just got something in my eye."

Hey there kids, Handsome Jack here!

And I've got a business proposition for all of you!

See, I'm a busy guy. I don't have the time to be going all over the world, hunting out specific Pokemon all the time. I'm the president of an intergalactic super corporation, I look after a whole planet. Sure, sure, I don't have access to'em right now, but that doesn't mean I'm just gonna forget about'em while I'm here! Not to mention that I have a job here, and stuff to take care of.

Like I said, I'm a busy guy.

So I will pay you for Pokemon. I'll cover you re: balls and all that stuff. Stipend for travel and everything, and a bonus for delivery of individual Pokemon.

I mean, that's what most of you do anyway, right? Why not make a little extra cash along the way, and help a guy out expanding his collection of badass animal buddies!

Trust me. I'll make it worth your while.

I'm sorry I couldn't fix the water, zura... [Komasan takes a moment to look away from the feed, honestly ashamed that his "three cups of ice" trick didn't work.] But I couldn't stay there anymore, I went home, zura...

[A pause.]

Ah...

...but...

...i-if anyone's in the Goldenrod city and wants to visit...or doesn't have a place to stay at, I got room...s, z-zura.

I could make dinner, zura. O-Or even breakfast, zura. ...It could be like a sleepover, zura!

...

Um...that's all I wanted to say... So...bye, zura!

[Being that she isn't the most social of butterflies, Agent Carolina hasn't been on the network in quite a while. More than that, though, she's been a bit busy, as she'll later reveal.

But for anyone who may remember how stoic and withdrawn her first few posts were, they may be surprised to see how open and bright she seems now, smiling gently at the camera as if she'd just been laughing at her stupid blood gulch boys.

Behind her stands her faithful sparring partner, her Pangoro and spoiled child Aggie.]


Hey, trainers. I've got something useful for you coming up.

Starting next week-- that's the eighth of July, for you-- you can now take self defense classes with myself, or, if you're younger, my partner North. If you're wondering who the hell I am and how the hell I can teach classes like this, I'm former freelancer Agent Carolina, top rated in mixed martial arts in... 'the future'.

[ahem.]

I'll be holding classes every day in Goldenrod except for Saturdays, and I'll train whoever's willing in mixed martial arts, and... maybe even teach you to fight with your pokémon.

[Behind her, Aggie gives a grunt of agreement before attempting to return to his cool-guy demeanour.]

North will teach anyone under 12 years old on Fridays, and I'll teach anyone over that. If you don't have money to pay for it, I'll accept clean-up work instead.

Now, I know some of you are still struggling with road closures and limited travel, so... if that's a problem, let me know, and we'll see what three Freelancers can't do to get you started.

Hrm...

[The video starts with a shot of Komasan from behind as he stands in front of some sort of body of water, arms folded. He's joined by two of his Pokemon right now, Noko and Shiro, who also seem quite puzzled. Someone else must be recording.]

It's still too hot, zura...

[Komasan's little Dunsparce sits at the edge of the water, blowing on it occasionally in hopes that it'll cool. It...won't, of course, but damn it she's trying. I mean, it's more than what King Bumpkin and the amazing flying ice cream cone are doing.

That is, until Komasan gets an idea.]


M-Maybe it just needs more ice, like a drink, zura!

[Shiro puffs up proudly, ready to unleash an ice beam at his trainer's request, but instead finds the bottom of his cone grabbed as he's suddenly flung into the unbearable water like some sort of horrible boomerang. What follows next is a long, panicked screamed, followed by the sizzle of ice hitting warm water. You know the one.

Komasan can only sigh.]


I just don't get why that doesn't work, zura.

[...This has apparently happened at least more than once. The Vanillish floats to the surface, bobbing up and down, but not without losing all his precious snow.

The feed shakes as the startled cries from the Pokemon behind it drops the 'gear and rushes for the water, the video ending with a weirdly angled shot of Komasan's Ludicolo rushing to fish Shiro out of there.]


[Action]

[Komasan can still be found at the water's edge, trying to formulate his next plan that hopefully won't end in him chucking his Pokemon. Shiro's already recovered, regaining his usual trademark soft serve-shaped snow, but he can't help but look disgruntled about the whole situation. Absolutely no respect on this team, honestly.

Noko will continue to try and regulate the temperatures as best she can, but she's only one fat snake.]

[A - Action]. OH THE HUMANITY!!!

[The first thing Mettaton does upon his arrival doesn't really pertain to his Pokémon. Certainly he had been mildly curious and released his new friend by accident, but that really wasn't at the forefront of his mind.

Instead he is busy simply existing near the outskirts of New Bark Town, having fallen to his knees upon realizing that he was human. Sure, it was a bit dramatic, but he was nothing if not a drama queen. LET HIM HAVE THIS!!

So there he stays, simply content to feel everything new about him. The beat of his heart thrumming in his chest, encased by a living skeleton, muscles, and skin. He needs to take all of this in, and as he does, it makes his heart race and his head spin.

He can't even be embarrassed to feel the warmth of tears running down his tanned cheeks. He can cry! God, he can cry, he can feel things in such a different way!! It's a little overwhelming, that's all!


Th...this is the happiest...moment of my life!!

[He proclaims this loudly, with exaggerated body movements to convey his point. Being choked up will never take away his showmanship, but hey! HE'S A HUMAN!!!

And a good looking one, despite his over-the-top emoting. He's a slender fellow and his clothes is all form-fitting, covering most of his body, including his white gloves. And of course, no one could ever part Mettaton from his boots. So however he got here, the three-inch heels came, in all their pink glory. Slithering on one of said boots is a concerned Goomy making burbly noises because his trainer is crying.



[B - Video]. Baby's First Broadcast

[Some time later, Mettaton has figured out a little bit about his PokéGear by fiddling with it. He's even pointed it at his new Poké-buddy and gotten some interesting tidbits about Goomies, as well as thought up a nice name for him!

Now though, he is making use of the PokéConnect function. It's not that much different from using a cellphone, so it works for him! Before long, he's got the camera centered and with the touch of a button, his feed starts.]


Good afternoon, my new beauties and gentlebeauties!! Most of you don't know me, and that is a sad state of affairs!! [He wiggles the fingers of his free hand at the camera in greeting, his grin widening.] Yes, hello! I am Mettaton, and I am positively enthused to be here and meet all of you!! Or at least to do so in the future!

So!! Before I ended up here, I was two things; a robot and a popular entertainer!! Now I'm no longer a robot, or popular! However, there is no point lamenting that, because the part that still matters is the entertainer bit!

[With how expressive he is, that's not surprising. Even the way he speaks carries charisma and experience with addressing an audience. Though this isn't so much an audience as, well. A bunch of people who probably feel awkward that a total stranger is so enthusiastic about speaking to them.]

Anyway, I would love to carry on being an entertainer while I work towards the ultimate goal of raising my new partner, Silky!! [A pause as he tilts the camera up, showing that there is in fact a Goomy in his hair. Gross. Oh well, he doesn't seem to mind.] I also aspire to gather him up a bunch of new friends because that seems like the thing to do!!

Still, I would love to put on shows for you all the same way I've done for my darling fans back home! So here's a little pop quiz: What sort of things do you all find interesting and/or would like to see in a show setting?

Don't be shy, now! My Gear is always open to you, darlings!! Toodles!

[Why two places? Because Antoine's been running back and forth between the two, screaming his head off for a good half-hour now. He's not having a good day. When you finally locate the source of the hysterics, a young man is up in a tree, clinging to a branch, while down below, a confused Honedge is floating around and waiting for his new master to come down.]

WHY DOES ZIS KIND OF THING ALWAYS BE HAPPENING TO ME?! Did I wrack up bad karma een another life?! I DEMAND TO BE WOKEN UP FROM ZIS NIGHTMARE ZIS EESTANT!

[A pitying howl, he clings harder to his branch.]

I cannot find my wedding ring either... Can zis day get any worse?

[Video]

[This face appears on screen! ... Looking thoroughly, THOROUGHLY exhausted.]

... Assuming zis ees not a bad dream, or one of Doctor's Eggman's nefarious albeit confusing plans... Zis ees Antoine D'Coolette from ze main branch of ze Freedom Fighters, calling all branches and teams! Report een at once and identify your location! I am needing updates as soon as possible... along with a hug.

 [Hey, there's Honedge, peering over his shoulder!]

Once I am with ze Princess, at least, we shall formulate a plan to - GAAAAAH!

[Honedge's mere appearance seems to scare the heck out of him, as he drops the communicator.]

I TOLD YOU TO STOP DOING ZAT! EEF YOU ARE GOING TO POSSESS MY FATHER'S SWORD, YOU WILL DO SO WITH DIGNITY!

So, like, I noticed...

[Draculaura is outside, and her Pokemon (Noivern, Cofagrigus, Gengar) are propping up a few things - an umbrella? a lawn chair? blankets?. She's dressed in a stylish bathing suit, talking to the device.]

All of that stuff that's blocking the towns? Major bummer. I was thinking of going to the beach eventually, but, now it's like way too much trouble. So I thought I'd enjoy the best stuff about the beach here - the sunshine! I could never get a real tan back home.

But like, at the same time, all these new people logged onto the game! There are sooo many new friends to make, so, I say? Take the best of a bad situation! While you're waiting for the roads to clear, make some friends! We can learn a bunch of stuff from each other. Like, I'm the unofficial Monster Ambassador, so I can tell you all about monsters! Or boys, I know all about boys and romance. Or fashion! Doesn't this outfit look sooo cute?

[She twirls - and trips over the too short to notice Snubbul. She yelps, crashes into the set up the others had made, and everyone winds up on the pavement. The Snubbul shrugs, picking up the device in its mouth. Yum.]

[Action]

[Eventually the mess gets cleared up, and Draculaura gets the 'vacay' she wants. She's propped up on the lawn chair, basking in the sunlight. Crobat occasionally fans her with his giant wings, Frosslas is the 'fridge' keeping sodas cool by hugging them, Gengar is eating the food from the picnic basket... hey! Bad!

But Draculaura doesn't seem to mind, sighing happily in the sun, eyes closed. It's an unusual sight... especially when it's in the middle of the city. Hope she's not blocking your way today

[ What happens when you're a newbie stranded in New Bark Town with nothing else to do? You manage to figure out how to use the PokéGear, and that is certainly what Minako has done after several frustrating attempts. It is hard being from the 1990s where pagers were what was all the rage, and there wasn't this new technology. Either way, there's a new face on the feed - a blonde-haired girl with blue eyes currently perched against a tree with a Luvdisc at her side. On her other side is the bento lunch that all the newcomers get, opened and halfway eaten as she continues to stuff her face with the food, looking a little miffed. ]

'kay, gotta be honest here, this whole journey thing kinda sucks. I mean, "Mom" made it seem like it was gonna be exciting, y'know? I was expecting to go on this huge adventure and maybe even meet some hotties while I'm at it! But nooooo. Instead, me and Aimi are stuck here in New Bark Town because of this elephant thing that's deciding to tear up everything on the route ahead.

[ Minako gives a huge sigh, complete with a slump of her shoulders. Usually she is a lot chipper than this, but she's boooored. And when she's bored, she's super whiny. ]

There's nothing to do here. Ugh, this is worse than studying for entrance exams...

[ ...Actually, no, studying for entrance exams is worse. Never mind. ]

No, I mustn't act like this...! Chin up, Minako! It's like what they say, there's no use in drinking spoiled milk!

[ Except literally nobody has said that ever... ]

Anyways, you guys should totally come talk to me! Don't be a stranger! I'll probaaaably be here for a while, so any and all company is welcomed. I'll even introduce myself to break the ice! [ She clears her throat and gives a bright smile. ] Introducing...Minako Aino! I'm sixteen years old and a first year high school student. My birthday's October 22nd, which is coming up pretty soon, so you should totally buy me presents! My favorite colors are red and orange, if you need any gift inspiration. [ It's June, and she's speaking as though her birthday is next week... ] I really like curry and ramen, but I hate shiitake mushrooms. What else is there...well, I guess you could say my hobby is idol-chasing, but I also really like watching TV, playing video games, and reading manga. Oh, and how could I forget...?! My most ultimate, most favorite thing to do of all time! Meeting cute boys!

[ She winks suggestively, as if trying to drop a hint for boys to come talk to her, which...of course she is. It's Minako. ]

So, yeah, you guys should tell me all about yourselves! In times like these, it's nice to make new friends, right?
