PUZZLE 003 [VIOLET CITY - VIDEO/ACTION]

[[As soon as she set foot in Violet City, Emmy immediately sought out the Gym for a battle! However, if you've got your Pokegear on or you're near the Pokemon Centre, you'll see her and her Machop emerging, looking...rather defeated.]]

Well, that certainly could've gone better.

[[Almost in unison, the pair sigh and seat themselves on a bench outside the centre.]]

That Falkner fellow had some horribly powerful Pokemon! That creepy owl....gosh, I had no idea what to do! Perhaps we shouldn't have rushed in there so soon. I'm sorry, Machi.

[[The Machop frantically waves her arms and points to herself, before sighing and slapping her palm against her forehead.]]

It wasn't your fault!

[[Emmy smiles, and puts a friendly arm around her Pokemon's shoulders.]]

Don't worry, Machi. The Professor wouldn't give up and neither will we! We just have to train harder so that next time, we're ready! We're not going to lose to the likes of him!

Oh? Well, I suppose it wouldn't be called a 'challenge' if it wasn't difficult.

Are you still in Violet City, then?
derpsaboutfamily: (hai thar!)

Outside the Pokemon Centre...?

[ He's not going to respond to his question, but it does seem as though he's walking, because the 'Gear is moving up and down.

He's actually inside the Pokemon Centre currently, and so all he really has to do is walk outside. And he's spotted you! Turn around, Emmy. ]


Yo!
derpsaboutfamily: (roy; back to the start)

/o/

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-14 08:54 am (UTC)(link)
It's still lovely nonetheless!

[ His Eevee is happily bounding toward you and taking a seat right in front of your feet and staring up at you. She might be looking for a pet or two... ]
derpsaboutfamily: (lemme think about this)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-14 09:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ He'll take that seat! Maes barely had much respect for personal space anyways... ]

Hmm, well, did he use a lot of bird Pokemon?

[ He's tapping his chin thoughtfully, and then glancing over at the Machop. That's curious... Maes takes out his Pokegear and points it toward Machop. It beeps and then starts to spew out some information about the Pokemon ]

Ah! This might be why it was so difficult to defeat the Gym Leader. If I remember correctly, fighting types like this [ glancing at 'Gear to remind himself the name of this Pokemon ] Machop aren't very effective against bird types.
derpsaboutfamily: (:D)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-14 09:16 am (UTC)(link)
Each type has different weaknesses and strengths, I think. If something was on fire, you wouldn't put it out by throwing more wood in it, but water would help, right?

That's why it's useful to catch all different kinds of Pokemon. You never know which one will come in handy!
derpsaboutfamily: (sheepish)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-14 09:25 am (UTC)(link)
My Pokemon? Well, I've got this Eevee here. She's a normal type. And then I've got a fish, an electric type... cat Pokemon, a psychic one, a dark type crow, and... a... honeycomb shaped bug Pokemon.

[ He laughs ]

Most of them were gifts, actually.
derpsaboutfamily: (sincere)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-14 09:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... actually, he's not quite sure he'd count two of the gifters as friends... He's just met Archer -- who claims to already know him really well, which is weird -- and... Kimblee is Kimblee... ]

Yes! I was quite surprised to have received them, honestly.
derpsaboutfamily: (:D)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-14 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He nods ]

It's a lot to take in all at once!

But I agree, everyone I've met [ Okay, not everyone ] has been very friendly and helpful~
derpsaboutfamily: (laughing)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-15 08:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's laughing. Because... how to answer that question. ]

Plenty, actually. A few old military buddies, mostly. [ er... co-workers... not sure he'd call them all 'buddies' at this point... ] Also a few non-military friends!
derpsaboutfamily: (lemme think about this)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-15 08:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's okay, the Eevee likes it better that way anyways. If you stop petting her she'll just scoot closer and stick her hand into your hand anyways.

He's nodding, and counting them off on his fingers ]


Yes, lets see... There's the Elrics [ two fingers down ], Roy, Archer, and Kimblee, and that's just from the military!

[ He's not going to count Bradley. Because... what... no. He almost didn't count Kimblee, honestly. Not after that whole philosopher's stone fiasco. ]

We've mostly been scattered around the area, but it's nice to have familiar faces around!

[ bliiiiiink. .... white suit, yes. Gentleman... depends. ]

I don't believe there are many who choose to wear white suits, so, most likely we're thinking of the same man.

You've met him?
derpsaboutfamily: (roy; back to the start)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-15 09:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ ................ that question. How does one answer it? ]

We served together years ago! Didn't get a chance to keep in touch afterwards, though. [ You know, prison and all... no big deal... ] Caught up a little, once we found each other here!

[ That's a good enough answer to your question, right? ]
derpsaboutfamily: (laughing)

[personal profile] derpsaboutfamily 2012-01-15 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ He has to keep himself from laughing out loud at that image. So have a really broad grin instead... because this is kind of priceless. ]

I would not mind that!
