[It's evident from Jane's appearance as the video starts that she's been a busy young lady. Her hair is mussed, her cheeks are pink, and she's resting outside on a bench nearby what looks to be a small cafe in Goldenrod - there's counters and stools up against the windows for people to sit, but other than that it's pastries and hot drinks and tight quarters. Most noticeable of all, though, is the bright and brilliant smile Jane is wearing.]

Does anyone ever get up very early in Goldenrod for any particular reason? I...I just got a new job, and I had to be awake for my first shift, and just...walking through the city in the morning, it's so serene and beautiful, and with the cold air coming in everything is so crisp and fresh! And then at this place, [She moves the camera to take a look at the cafe] I'm so busy I can't even pause to think, but it's a good kind of busy! Maybe it's a little strange to be happy about such a simple job, but I never really had to work like this at home, and it's...nice. It's especially nice.

[It's probably a bit hard to explain how nice it is to get to do something normal for a change, to wake up and know that you don't have to fight for your life or struggle to survive in the wilderness with immense amounts of teenage drama on top. Perhaps, Jane thinks, this is what it feels like to become an adult.]

Ah, but, um...I should ask a question so this doesn't seem too weird to say out of the blue, huh? Let's see...oh! I've got it - what's a job you've enjoyed doing most while you've been here? And to compare, what's a job you've enjoyed the least? I'd love to hear about any and all shenanigans!

[...yeah, so it's been a long week for everyone dealing with Team Skull, but Tarrlok has sort of... well. It would be one thing if he had any political power in this world, but he's really just stuck trying to call the police on them when he sees them causing trouble, which is... uh... not really working out as well as he'd hope.

...and of course, his favorite spa's gotten tagged with some sort of skull insignia, so you know. Maybe he should talk about it. Ask for advice. Provide a call to action. Something.]


So we seem to have been hit with a plague of irritating misdemeanors recently, and despite the perpetrators' apparent incompetence, law enforcement hasn't been as helpful as I would've hoped, so... I suppose we should really figure out how to properly deal with all this. I... suppose it's not a very pressing matter, given that this seems to be more of a nuisance than anything else, but I think it'd be better to nip it in the bud than to let it fester and see them end up any worse.

So, I suppose I ought to ask first if anyone has figured out if there are any actual motivations at play here, or if they're just ---

Yooooo! Check this out, holmes! This is super whack!

[Annnnd the music just starts on up. Just... goes ahead. Tarrlok... tries to remain stately, but he sighs. He sighs so hard as a male and female Team Skull grunt wander up behind him in wonder.]

Woah, that's whickity-whack! What kind of dude just goes around with three ponytails?

...I... look, I'll just...

[the female grunt walks on up close and then... sniffs a bit...]

Hold up, is that perfume or Berry Essences!? Forget the Pokemon, Poochyena, I'm mugging him for that!

Well, snap, my homegirl, I've got dibs on the Pokemon, then! Come on, let's do it to it!

...I'll... be back.

[...he snaps the gear off after an even longer, more put-upon sigh, and will be back for replies after a few minutes or so...]

Who: Everyone who wants to join a team!
Where: Goldenrod City!
When: October 31st!
Summary: Team Skull's planned a full-fledged assault on Goldenrod; join up with a team and take them down!
Rating: Will vary from thread to thread. Warn for common triggers if something comes up.
Log:

It's been three days since Guzma's made his first announcement over the radio, but try as the police might, no one's been able to get to him since; after making his call to arms, asking all available Skulls to come to Goldenrod to have some fun, he seems to have completely dropped off without a trace. But Candela isn't concerned much about that. She's been at this for long enough to know the song and dance; this is a pivotal spot, after all, and Guzma will be back here before long, probably with more than enough cronies to go around. When that happens, they'll head him off at the pass. Easy as that. He's gotta get orders out to the people outside, after all, and the only place he can do that is here.

He won't take it over a second time. Team Valor will make sure of that.

Meanwhile, outside the tower, Blanche would like to think she has a bit more control of the situation. Candela had been so gung-ho on kicking Guzma's ass in the tower that Blanche almost didn't have the heart to tell her that there was probably an ambush waiting in there for her. ...Rather, she tried, but Candela has a way of being far too stubborn for her own good...in any case, if she needs backup, she's out here to provide it, but if there are going to be riots and messes in the streets, its better to be out here where the damage is going to be at its highest, just to stop it before it starts. Already, Team Skull is starting to come out in small hordes, and it won't be long before things start to get hectic out here. Team Mystic, though, is dedicated towards stopping this before it gets a chance to start. ...But perhaps they'd be taken a bit more seriously if Candela and Spark hadn't forced her to dress up for Halloween--

Speaking of Spark, of course, Team Instinct's leader seems to have his priorities in order; if there are going to be riots and debris in the streets, some of the wild Pokemon in the area might just get hurt, and that will never do! So Spark has taken it on himself to lead a search-and-rescue charge with Team Instinct--any stray Pokemon in the Goldenrod area should be either captured or brought straight to a Pokemon Center ASAP! The goal is not to leave even one behind! ...Of course, Team Skull is a problem, too, but won't somebody think of the Pokemon--

You're free to NPC any Team Skull grunts and Pokemon interactions yourselves, but Team Valor will have the chance to battle Guzma, and Team Mystic will have the chance to battle Plumeria! Please be patient with responses in these threads; if the boss's Pokemon start to become too weak, they'll end up making a tactical retreat!

One last thing: you're all encouraged to have your character in costume for an event like this, and your team leaders will be dressed in costume, too! If three or more characters in costume participate in a thread together, a miracle might occur, and the Legendary Bird corresponding with your team has a chance to appear at your discretion! This applies in battles with Guzma and Plumeria, as well!

Have fun and Happy Halloween!
