PUZZLE 005 [GOLDENROD CITY - VIDEO/ACTION]
VIDEO
[[The feed opens to Emmy's smiling face, shaking slightly as she adjusts the camera. She appears to be in a square of sorts, sitting on a bench under a tree.]]
Does anyone out there have any advice for when it comes to visiting the Goldenrod gym for a battle? I've heard the leader is a bit childish, and it sometimes causes problems for challengers. Any hints would be appreciated!

ACTION
[[Her message completed, Emmy places her Pokegear in her pocket and awaits responses. Nearby, her Machamp and her Pignite are sparring. Occasionally she'll give them a word of praise or a correction, but it's clear her mind is elsewhere.
When replies come in, she turns to the side to answer them, displaying a certain reluctance to show her Pokemon on the Pokegear, focusing the camera only on herself as they spar off to the side.
Emmy isn't usually this disconnected from her Pokemon when they're training, but her thoughts have been heavy for the past couple of days, ever since she engaged in communication with an anonymous Team Rocket member. Whoever the person was, they'd unnerved her with their knowledge of her team and their current statuses. For this reason, she's not broadcasting her training session to the network at all.
It bothers her somewhat, as she hates feeling like this. She shouldn't have to hide her Pokemon; she wants to show them off! But if she's going to have any sort of advantage over this Team Rocket member, she has to keep her team a secret. Especially since they mentioned they'd be targeting her specifically. But why?]]
This is all so horribly creepy....
[[She's zapped back to reality as her Pignite goes rolling past her, the victim of a sneaky throw from her Machamp. Pushing her insecurities to the side, she decides to look forward, smiling as said Pignite manages to jump straight back into the battle. After all, isn't that what she should be doing?]]

Emmy! I had no idea you were back in town.
[Action]
Since this is the first time Emmy's actually met him in person, it's...quite an event. You grew up handsome, lad.]]
I just arrived yesterday, Luke! It's nice to meet face to face.
[[...good lord, this is tripping her out.]]
I must say, this is all quite overwhelming, seeing you....well, all grown up!
[Action]
Well, you'd better get used to it, because you're going to be seeing me more often!
[He chuckles a bit.]
So, how've you been?
[Action]
I would hope so! Although don't expect me to stop calling you Assistant #2, there.
[[She will return that chuckle!]]
And I haven't been two bad. I was travelling with two friends of mine for a while before I headed here to Goldenrod. I really wanted to see you all in person as soon as I could.
[[...maybe she'll hold off talking about the creepy texts until later. If ever.]]
Yourself, Luke?
