Feather 3 [Video/Action for Route 31]

[usedfeatherdance]

[ The first thing visible as the recording begins is Joshua. He opens his mouth to say something, but is immediately cut off by a very odd sound echoing around him. He turns around, and the Gear angles to show behind him a rather large Sigilyph... getting quite thoroughly beaten up by a Bellsprout half its size.

Joshua sighs. ]

Confusion. Take out that one, too.

[ From off screen there's a high-pitched noise, and a purple aura briefly surrounds the Bellsprout, which collapses soon after. Joshua seems to take only a second to check that it's not getting up again before turning back to the video. ]

Now where was I? Oh yes. Any of you veterans out there have advice for someone new to this business? I'm training them for the first gym leader, and after all, knowing is half the battle.

[ He giggles, then ends the feed.

Others are free to run across him on Route 31 near Violet, riding his Absol around through the grass stirring up Pokemon, which his Ralts then takes out. The previously mentioned Sigilyph hovers through the air making odd, repetitive patterns with its path, usually not gathering too much notice from the wildlife but probably looking a fair bit out of place. ]

The flying one.

*he saw plenty of Ralts during the event the other week, after all...*

It's a Sigilyph. It hatched from the egg that appeared on Valentine's Day. Did you get one? [ ... an egg, not a Sigilyph ]

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

I see. And I did, yes.

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

Has it hatched yet?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Yes, last week, actually.

*pauses, glancing around, but only the Absol seated at his feet is in sight...*

Flourish!

*there's a rustling from a nearby clump of grass, and a Snivy pokes his head out of it, eyes lidded sleepily*

Sniiii?

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

I'm still late, apparently. [ He giggles. ] What's yours?

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

He's a Snivy.

*while they talk, Flourish brushes himself off, and with a twirl of his leafy tail walks nonchalantly over to see what everyone's saying about him*

[usedfeatherdance]

I've never heard of it, but of course, I'm still new to this whole business.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Likewise. I can't say I'd heard of any of this before a few weeks ago.

[usedfeatherdance]

You're not from a world that had Pokemon? [ Hmm, there are more people like that than he thought there'd be. ]

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Well, no. We don't have anything like them, really.

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

In the world I come from, Pokemon is a video game.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

What sort of game is that?

*has nooooo idea what video games are, yep*

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

You know the devices we received when we arrived here? Imagine those having entertaining, interactive pictures that you can play games with.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Interesting...

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

Sometimes. Sometimes boring. Sometimes they're simply broken and no fun at all.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Well, I suppose you'd know better than I.

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

You should ask around about them. I can't imagine this world doesn't have its own video games.

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

You think so?

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

It certainly has the technology for it. [ He gives a small wave of his PokeGear. ]

Re: Action

[dreamsofahero]

Ah, I see...

Action

[usedfeatherdance]

Try one out. You might be surprised.
