003; pokevideo/text

[After switching on, the video flops about in a haphazard, obviously-Pokemon-directed way. As the cameramon struggles to point the Pokegear in the intended direction, the interior of a room at the Goldenrod inn becomes visible. A television is running in the background, but it's turned down and not clearly audible over the noise of the 'Gear being fumbled with.

Finally it settles on its intended target:



A pair of small, snoozing, fuzzy Pokemon! They're taking up the whole top end of the bed, and seem to have gotten turned around since falling asleep...

The camera lingers on them for a while, as the cameramon coos quietly to herself. Oh god they're so cute so adorable aaaah.

The video shuts off.

It turns back onto a scene from about half an hour later. The Shinx is galumphing around the edges of the bed, jumping and tripping over the rumpled-up covers. The Absol is lying on his back in the center of the Shinx's circular path, exchanging swats with the smaller Pokemon. After running a few rounds, the Shinx jumps on the Absol's face, and the two squawk and yowl as they bat playfully at one another, rolling back and forth and then off the bed completely.

The video shuts off again.]




[Later in the day, Ondorus makes a text post, unaware of earlier antics.]

These questions are for anyone who wishes to answer any portion of them.

- In and around Goldenrod, what sights and attractions would you recommend to someone who is unfamiliar with cities?

- Do you bother keeping track of your birthday in Johto? If you do, and if the year of your world is not of the length of a Johto year, how do you measure out when that and other dates from your world occur?

- Where raising young Pokemon is concerned, does anyone have any wisdom to share that isn't often found in the books on the subject?

- To misters Sion and Ryder: the eggs I purchased from you have hatched safely and healthily, in case the parents wish to be informed. Thank you, again.


((ooc: If you want to reply to the first, earlier entry, you'll just get Pokeshenanigans for a while. Ondorus might come back to those replies later in the evening after he's caught on, if there's anything in them that begs responding to.))
enjoymyatelier: maybe he should check the foundations, come to think of it. (red car. good point.)

Areas inundated with industrial waste and toxic chemicals, I'd imagine. There was actually an incident a while back where they were spontaneously generated from trash, though I'm not sure if that's their usual mode of reproduction.

It doesn't seem that way, no. What's even more surprising about it is that in the majority of cases, they don't seem to be particularly different from the Pokemon that are natural in origin.
enjoymyatelier: god damn it is hard to be polite here. (you are straining the limits of my class)

In both, really. I would have expected them to be genderless like some Pokemon I've seen, but... they aren't, which leads me to suspect that they could interbreed with more natural Pokemon, as well.

...not that I'd want that to happen, of course. I have no idea how any of this occurs, but I imagine it wouldn't be pleasant.
