THE GHOSTS HERE ARE INCREDIBLY TACKY!!!!

SERIOUSLY, HOW DO YOU MAKE THEM STOP?! IT'S VERY AGGRAVATING AND I DON'T APPRECIATE BEING FOLLOWED BY SOMEONE I KNOW WHO ISN'T REALLY THE PERSON I KNOW!!

I SEE THAT SOME OF YOU ARE CURRENTLY SUFFERING SIMILAR ISSUES--IF YOURS HAVE REACHED A PASSABLE RESOLUTION, PLEASE TELL ME HOW I CAN GET THIS TO STOP!! OTHERWISE, I'M OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS FROM ANYONE ELSE WHO KNOWS HOW POKEMON GHOSTS OPERATE!!!

[There's a mild implication that where he's from, ghosts do not behave this way.

If by mild one means a neon flashing light that says THIS IS WEIRD I AM UNCOMFORTABLE MAKE IT STOP.]

[Action (Ecruteak City)]

[As soon as Mettaton's finished posting his plea for assistance, he tucks his 'Gear away, then shoots a sideways glance at the ghost currently impersonating...

...well. A ghost. It couldn't look anymore like a cheap knockoff if it tried, because unfortunately, ghost monsters were pretty plain. Either way, it seems to strike a nerve with Mettaton, because with a huff, he glares at the apparition.]

I know you aren't really him!! Go away, wouldn't you?!

[The ghost tears up, the outline of its eye seeming to go wiggly.
Aaaand Mettaton doesn't buy it.]

Oh stop it!! You aren't fooling anyone!

[Mettaton holding a conversation by himself is not the strangest thing ever...but probably worth raising an eyebrow at anyway.]

[Lust simply looks tired when she comes on the network. There's a dark skinned, bespectacled man with red eyes behind her, smiling pleasantly.]

Has anyone discovered the reason for these...visitations?

It's not as though it's very disruptive, but...it's a bit unnerving, I suppose. No matter what I do or say, he won't leave.

Or do much of anything else.

[She'd thought perhaps he'd vanish by the second day, but...no. Whatever his name is is still 'haunting' her.]

I think he watched me sleep last night...

[It's fairly quiet wherever Tucker is, just a couple quiet noises in the background here and there, like animals shifting around.]

Okay, so. Been a while and I got a couple questions now that this whole universe thing is done flipping its shit.

We got this dex thing on our phones, and it's pretty useful. But here's my question. How d'you know when your animals stop changing? Like, is there a line somewhere, because my stuff doesn't register anything new until I run into something new. That make sense? [Tucker literally just poke around on your fucking dex, it's not hard.]

Other question. I've been here a fucking while and got a job and shit, but please tell me there's something like a bank around. It's starting to be a pain in the ass carrying the money around like this, surely a place like this has banks. Someone tell me I'm not crazy. I'll take dumb over crazy at this point.

[There's a quiet moment, then a breath as he gets ready to AND ANOTHER THING, hesitates and decides nah fuck it.]

[ACTION - Goldenrod]

[If you ever wanted to see a groan man strike out so hard so fast, look no further than Tucker trying and failing multiple times to talk the cashier at the nearest pokemart into getting drinks with him. And the nurse at the nearby Center.

Sighing carrying a couple bags of groceries down the street and gives a not-exactly-family-friendly smile to the woman waiting by the bus bench.

He's not exactly batting a thousand when he takes a seat and sighs.] Should've asked what it takes to get a quickie around here.

[It's the crack of dawn, and Mei looks...rather tired. She hadn't been bothered by the sleeplessness other people suffered last week, but she has her own sleep problem to worry about. Floating behind her is a rather cheerful looking Chimecho who's just chiming away.]

Has anyone else had problems keeping their Pokémon in their balls? This one seems to be an escape artist.

[A pause as she glances back over her shoulder at the offending critter.]

...and she's been doing this since I found her. It only got worse when she evolved. Every morning at five. Without fail.

[Needless to say, it isn't exactly pleasant when you need the rest.]

[Ever have that moment where you're just waking up, still drowsy, eyes barely opened, and you look at your surroundings, and somehow, they're totally different than you remember. Completely. Because you're relatively sure you went to sleep in a dusty little inn located in some sleepy little village with nothing going for it but a mako reactor and a creep old mansion and not a field of reasonably soft, incredibly itchy grass.

That is the exact moment Zack is having right now.

Once the intinal panic of waking up in a place so utterly different than the one you fell asleep in, he proceeds to struggle for no less than twenty minutes trying to figure out what the in the world this white and red ball thing he's been given is and why it keeps shaking every time he tries to open it. Thankfully, it takes a lot less time to figure out the device he's been given, scanning in the bracelet located upon his wrist and realizing it wasn't all that different from the PHS he'd used before.

Which is why everyone is now going to get the pleasure of being greeted by an overly bright, enuthusiastic smile. He's seated on the ground, near the main road, the female vulpix curled up in his lap, head resting upon one of his thighs.]

Did anyone else go to sleep somewhere else last night? Because I gotta say, this is the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me. [And that's saying something.] This place is pretty great though. They even give out free pets. [There's a small rustling coming from his lap as the vulpix moves, looking pointedly up at him, completely unimpressed.

She is not a 'pet', thank you very much.] Okay! Okay, I'm sorry. You're not a pet. You're a... Pokémon? I think that's what they said I was supposed to call you. They even give out free Pokémon. That better?

[Satisified, she settles down again.] Anyway, this place is great and all, but I'm needed somewhere else. So if anyone could tell me how to get back to Nibelheim, I'd really appreciate it.

[There's a moment's hesitation, as if he wants to say something else, before he decides against it, one leather clad hand falling to gently brush through the vulpix's fur before ending the transmission.]

[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!

[ Maria was slightly confused at being told to go on an adventure and given a pink blob of a pokemon called Igglybuff. ]

This isn’t London or Tokyo… the staff for the venue are going to be angry if I’m late for the rehearsal time.

[ She did have her idol persona and whatnot going on back home that was making the whole wake up in a new place quite troubling. ]

This Igglybuff that they gave me, she’s quite cute I have to admit; almost like a squishy pink plushie you get for someone as a gift. As much as I want to take care of her though, I don’t think I can bring something like this home.

[ The Igglybuff was hiding in-between where Maria was sitting and her long hair, a bit shy at meeting anyone. ]

If any member of S.O.N.G sees this please make sure Kirika and Shirabe are at least being taken care of. Before I left for London I had left Chris in charge of them but if I can’t get ahold of people back home it’ll be a problem.

[ Maria let out a small sigh, she was worried about her two adoptive siblings more so then her current state. But never the less it was time to try and move out and see what else this place had in store.]

[ 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?

[It's a jovial, confident voice that comes over the gear. No video, only a voice.]

Hey kids, Handsome Jack here! I know, I know. 'Who the fuck is Handsome Jack, and why haven't I heard of him before?'. Oh, you poor people. You are really living in the dark ages. It is one hell of a good story, trust me. Brave awesome hero, galaxies in peril, lots of guns and explosions, betrayal, hot chicks in tight leather.... All that good stuff. Maybe I'll tell you some time. It's...oh, it's just so good.

[Because while this is just a temporary stop-over, that doesn't mean Jack is going to waste his time here. This backwards shit-hole of a planet's covered in animals he's never seen, full of items and energy sources he's not familiar with, and legends and folklore abounds. He's hardly been here a day and now that the shock of his situation has passed he can already see that this place offers countless opportunities for a brilliant mind like his.]

[It's all part of how it goes. The hero is seemingly beaten. Disgraced, slandered. All the best heroic tales have this bit. The bit before the hero's triumphant return, bigger and even better, to strangle the life out of the murdering bastard scum that stole everything from him.]

[Being broke is a bit of a problem, but it won't be for long. Jack knows money. He knows how to make it his, how to make it work for him. He's already in a prime position to get started. As if he needs any more proof that the universe itself loves him.]

But right now, I've got a burning question for all you...whatever you are. Help me out here.

Who are the bigwigs, and where do I find'em?

[How odd. It's like there's a total lapse in his memory... not that this is anything new. He distinctly remembers setting off to collect more badges, yet here he is, back in the Goldenrod area, minus all but one Pokémon, all his badges and belongings, and with a new secondary starter.

Still, for all his bewilderment, Ringabel greets the camera with a cool expression.]

How strange! Seems I've been away for a while, yet my memory suggests otherwise. I'd been told that those who leave simply forget, but I honestly can't remember even returning to Luxendarc...

Yet my Bisharp has reverted to a significantly lower level, and my team seems to have vanished outright...

[Sighing, he rubs at his brow.]

I'd ask if anyone has seen the rest of my roster, but I suppose it's best to assume the worst in these situations, hm? And I suppose there's always the option to search for them...

[Shaking his head, he soon recovers with a smile.]

In any case, to all the ladies of Johto and Kanto alike, and to those I've yet to meet, you can call me Ringabel, and it seems my journey here is far from over.

[...]

Now then, I take it things have gotten a bit... messy in my absence, and I'm quite curious to hear the full story.

[In the mean time, he'll venture further into the woods. Talk of poison types running wild is more than enough to catch his interest, and he's fortunate enough to have a steel type.]

Who: Joker, Jimmy Two-Shoes, Tobias, Ashley Williams, and Rakka
What: Workers of the Eve's Garden Circus plus two poor innocent bystanders decide to help put a stop to Ilex Forest's rampaging Poison problem. It will probably survive this encounter.
When: Early June, Shock-Blocked event
Where: Ilex Forest

When he'd first heard about the news reports coming from Ilex Forest, well, it wasn't like he could just not do anything. It was bad for business, roads being closed off and Poison Pokemon rampaging everywhere. So Joker had gathered up a couple of those still about the Circus and took off. It'd been pure coincidence that they'd run into a pair with the same idea in mind, and since they were all heading the same way....

Now here they are.

Hopefully they don't set the place on fire.
