Day 18 - Video/Action for Route 32/Violet [Forward Dated To Tomorrow]

[seasaltkeys]

[The pokegear is lying on the ground, staring up at pixilated trees and grass. It's weird, kind of creepy. There's sounds of a battle going on, but they end shortly. Roxas picks up the pokegear, but he doesn't look pleased. In fact, he looks sort of panicked. Sounds panicked to]

Sparky just went into his pokeball. He never goes into his pokeball. He's always with me.

None of my pokemon are acting like they usually do.

What's going on?


[ooc: Again, forward dated to tomorrow. I'm busy tonight so I just wanted to get it up. Replies probably won't come until tomorrow though.]

That's...really weird. It must be part of all other weird things that are going on.

Between the strange monsters and the squares, easier travel is the least of our worries.

Have you met any of the strange ones?

[video]

[paladinlost]

A few. They were made of piled up squares, but a friend of mine mentioned seeing some that were made of bones. I have not heard of anyone who has managed to defeat them. They escape before we can do so.

So there's different types? Maybe it's a new species of pokemon.

[video]

[paladinlost]

I hope so. Pokémon seem to follow certain rules of existence. I'd would be nice if we could apply them to these.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

There are exceptions to every rule.

Where do they show up?

[video]

[paladinlost]

From what I've seen, anywhere you can normally find wild Pokémon. I have not yet seen any in buildings, but by this point it wouldn't surprise me.

I guess if I stick to the city, I should be alright then. I...don't think I want to meet one.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That might be a good idea, considering no one is quite sure of what they do.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, especially if they all look different.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Hopefully, it will end as quickly as the hallucinations.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

I really hope it does. This doesn't...feel right.

[video]

[paladinlost]

...I know. Especially our Pokémon...

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

It's almost like they're not really with me.

[video]

[paladinlost]

...That might be the best case scenario. What if they were fully aware, but unable to do more than obey our orders? Locked within their own bodies, and forced to suppress any part of themselves that might surface? Temporary oblivion and amnesia might be kinder to them.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

I guess so. I'm gonna try to avoid battling just in case.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Unless you feel the need to see how far you can go with these new short routes, you shouldn't have any problems with that.

[video]

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

That's the plan, really.
