[The feed opens up a bit into the bushes, a Buizel chittering away behind the screen and a Litwick wiggling just in the right hand corner, and paws are rolling the gear around. It takes a few minutes for the camera to be righted and pointing a direction that doesn't show leaves and snow, and then it's displaying a yard. A backyard.

Out in that backyard, Vanitas is practicing hand to hand combat with his Riolu and Croagunk; all three are working on their form today, led by "Instructor Zuru" the Scraggy. It seems to be going well enough, some simple arm thrusts and kicks being worked through, before they split into two groups. Riot starts off with a fierce volley of kicks at Zuru, who starts countering and dodging, and Vanitas takes a charge at the Croagunk.. who looks overly nonchalant.

It's a split second movement that the frog fighter makes, and not one Vanitas was particularly ready for; Croagunk used foul play and downright sucker punched his trainer in the gut, doing a fine job of knocking him off his feet and flat on his back. The resulting pained wheeze is enough to make the voyeur Pokemon go running, the Buizel leaving the gear behind in the bushes to time out on its own.]

video; hahahaha yeah

Heh, people really do say way too much sometimes, or it's stuff that no one would really care about.

I still cannot believe your pokemon learning new moves can be considered, by previous example, a worthy thing to broadcast. Or, the standard "my pokemon is slightly disobedient" that somehow broadcasts itself for five minutes.

It's one thing to ask for assistance with a disobedient Pokemon that attacks or causes real problems. It's another if it just doesn't want to evolve or doesn't like the food being shoved at it. Learning new moves is only interesting if it's something no one thought it could learn, like those ghost giants that can fly.

Agreed. Unfortunately, with how often help is requested these days, I find myself doubting if Johto is really in capable hands with giant creatures if they are puzzled when it comes to merely getting along with them.

Re: video

Probably not. Both regions do send everyone out with some goal to discover more about the Pokemon that have been here for hundreds of years.

A very valid point. I fear we might be here forever with the lack of innovative scientific techniques. At the very least, it's up to us to return ourselves to our home.

Re: video

[shadowdive]

I'm not interested in leaving anymore, so I can be counted out.

[licentious]

Well, if we find out how to return home voluntarily, we might also be able to cease returning home involuntarily.

Re: video

[shadowdive]

Good point.

[licentious]

So, can I count on your assistance?

video

[shadowdive]

Alright, fine. Yeah, you can count me in again. If I hear anything or find anything rare or unique, I'll put it on the list of things to investigate.

Be sure to contact me. Who knows, I might be able to get to the lead faster than you and it won't interfere with your plans since mine are largely adaptable. [ The more time out of the Team Rocket shithouse, the better. ]

[shadowdive]

Right. Works for me.

I'm glad it does. If we all cooperate, we can at least make our stays, or, for some people, lives, here better.
