Me: Finally, I’m out of the ho—OH CRAP IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS
*bump*
Marill: *stare*
Me: *stare*
Marill:…
…
MARILLMARILLMARILLMARILLMARILLLOLOLMARILL IMMA MARILL TROLOLOLOLOLL
Me: ASDFGHJKL NOOOOOO—
*Peppy music appears and a girl materializes from a door*
Me: Oh, hey, it’s the hairspray chick. Huh.
*Girl has exclamation point*
*Annoying-as-hell-Marill-has-one-as-well*
*Marill twirls and sprints to join the hairspray chick*
Me:…Dear God. I think I’ll have to put up with that Marill thing for the rest of my game now…*sigh*
*regular music resumes*
Me: I’m just gonna walk to the lab and—
What’s that red-haired chick doing up there?
Red-head:… So this is the famous Elm Pokemon Lab…
Me: Uh, yeah, it is.
Red-head: O_O!!! WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT? I’M NOT UP TO ANYTHING I SWEAR!
*shove*
Me:o_o…Okay…
THE LAB :D :D :D
*Even more upbeat music than the hairspray chick, if that’s even possible*
Elm: Hi, Leo! I’ve been waiting for you!
Me: You’re more of a creeper than Oak is.
Elm: Do you know anything about my research? :D
Me: No. Why should I?
Elm: As you know—
Me: I just said I didn—
Elm: SHUT UP AND LISTEN DAMMIT.
Me: O_O…
Elm: Ahem. S you know, Pokemon are carried in Poke Balls these days.
Me: *snort* Balls…
Elm: But, before the Poke Ball—
Me: *snort*
Elm:…:/ Before they were invented, people used to walk with Pokémon.
Me: “Runs with Zoroark”?
Elm:…Sure. Anyways, people walked with them like your friend Lyra does!
Me: Oh, wait, her name’s Lyra?
Elm: Yes. You do know she isn’t really named “Hairspray Chick”, right?
Me: *facedesk*
Elm: Poke ball DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT Poke balls are great because you can carry many Pokémon.
Me: Wouldn’t that get heavy? I mean. All those balls take a lot of work carrying around…LOL
Elm: >:C
Me: …Go on..
Elm: *sigh* But walking with Pokémon must have some advantages. It could have something to do with how Pokémon grow or evolve…
Me: Do you have any concrete evidence?
Elm: That’s why I’m giving you a Pokem—
Me: FINALLY! YESSSSS!
Elm: Can you walk beside this Pokemo outside of its Poke Ball, to see if this brings any special feelings or bonds between Pokemon and people?
Me: Dude I’m not into that kind of thing. I dunno about you though…
Elm:…What happens on Route 34 stays on Route 34, Leo.
Me: …o_o…
Elm: Choose a Pokemon, Leo.
RING RING RING RING
Elm: Oh, hey, I got an Email!
Me: No, you have a phone call.
Elm: No. It’s an Email…
Me: But it just rang like a telep—
Elm: IT’S AN EMAIL OKAY DAMMIT? D:<
Me: Okay D: Choosing Pokemon now…:c
Elm: No I’m done now. Hey, listen--
Me: OH GOD ITS ZELDA ALL OVER AGAIN ASDFGHJKL;
Elm: Sthu. I have this acquaintance that people call Mr. Pokemon.
Me: Dude is he into that kind of stuff as well as you? Freaks.
Elm:…He keeps finding weird things and raving about his discoveries.
Me: Case and point.
Elm:…:/ Anyway, I just got a telephone—I MEAN EMAIL from him saying that this time it’s real. It’s probably another Pokemon egg, but we’re still so busy with our Pokemon research…
Me: Dude. Seriously. Tell your pants it’s rude to point.
Elm: O_O… WAIT! I KNOW!
Me: .-.;;
Elm: You can go in our place, right? Can we count on you?
Me: Uh. Sure…?
Elm: You can choose one of the Pokemon over there.
Me: Finally! Which one to choose, though…Um…
Elm: Touch a Poke Ball
Me: DUDE SERIOUSLY QUIT TRYING TO GET ME INTO THAT KIND OF THING.
Elm:…Touch a Poke Ball to see what Pokemon is inside.
Chikorita, the Grass-type Pokemon, is in this Pokeball!
Me: Well, this is pretty bad type-wise, I can’t get a Water-type that early in the game easily… NEXT.
Cyndaquil, the Fire-type Pokemon, is in this Poke ball!
Me: Well, this isn’t that bad…I could get a Grass or Bug-type super easily.
Totodile, the Water-type Pokemon, is in this Pokeball!
Me: Well, I could very easily get a Flying-type. But, if I chose Cyndaquil, I could get an Electric-type too… My mind’s set. I’ll get THAT Pokemon.
Elm: You’ll take Cyndaquil, the Fire-type Pokemon?
Me: Yup. But not in that way…=/
DOO DA DOO! Give a nickname to the Cyndaquil you received?
Me: Sure. What to call it… I know. Ignis—OH PSH YEAH IT’S A FEMALE!
Elm: How do you like walking with your Pokemon? It’s not bad, is it? You can take it all the way to Mr. Pokemon’s house. If your Pokemon gets hurt…you can always just keep going.
Me: O_O…
Elm: O_o After visiting a Pokemon Center. Mr. Pokemon’s house is past Cherrygrove City. Go North a little past Cherrygrove. I’m counting on you, Leo!
Me: Let’s go, Ignis! :D :D :D
