PUZZLE 008 - [VIDEO/ACTION FOR GOLDENROD CITY]

One year today! 

[[Good morning Johto! Today on the feed, you'll be being greeted by the sight of one Emmy Altava, standing with her index finger raised in the air, a smile on her face and Goldenrod city in the background. It's the 17th of December; exactly a year since she arrived in Johto, and Emmy is feeling rather buzzed about it all. It's like an anniversary of sorts!]] 

That's how long I've been here; exactly one year. Time certainly does fly when you're having fun, doesn't it? I mean, I still miss London, but I feel there's so much more to explore in this world even after being here as long as I have. I've made some wonderful friends, both human and not! 

[[With a flourish, she whips out her trusty notebook, pen poised over a blank page.]]

 So, everyone! For those of you that have been here a year or longer, tell me your favourite things about Johto! Do you still enjoy it here? Have you explored all there is to explore? What secrets or mysteries or puzzles have you uncovered? That question also goes to those of you who are newer, by the way! The Professor- [[-for a moment, Emmy's bright smile fades, before she quickly forces it back on her face; the Professor wouldn't want to see her sad, after all-]] -may not be here any more but that doesn't mean I can slack off as his assistant! 

[[Pausing for a moment, Emmy chuckles to herself.]] 

One year in Johto for assistant number 1! How terribly fitting.

PUZZLE 007 - [VIDEO/ACTION FOR GOLDENROD CITY]

[[It's been a few weeks since anyone has heard from one Emmy Altava; after a rather nasty encounter with a Rocket member, she found herself in hospital with a concussion and a few bruised ribs. Having an Alakazam land on you will do that to a girl. But! Now she's allowed herself out of bed to test how the healing process has gone.

She's left her Pokegear off to the side as she goes through what appears to be a series of movements involving kicks and punches, sharply sparring with the air as she focuses on her technique.]]


So far, so good.

[[She massages her ribs for a moment, before smiling slightly. Her next move is quick and very spontaneous; falling forward and landing neatly on her hands, legs perfectly straight as she holds the handstand for a few moments. Behind her, her Machamp promptly copies her, crossing her extra set of arms over her chest.

Her Emboar also attempts a handstand, but it doesn't end quite as well, and she lands on her back with a crash. Well, she tried.

With a giggle, Emmy allows herself to fall backward, landing on her feet and doing a quick backflip to finish up. Perfect!]


I think we're all good to go!

[[And she turns away from the camera, heading towards a Fearow and what....appears to be the tail of a rather large Steelix, before scampering back and grabbing the Gear with a sheepish smile.

The feed cuts, and after a moment a message appears:]]


[TEXT]

Hello! Sorry for disappearing like that; I did something silly and ended up in the hospital for a bit, but I'm all better now! If you need me, I'm on my way to Blackthorn City to complete my Gym Challenge.

-Emmy Altava

P.S. What does it mean when someone gives you a Luvdisc?

4TH WALL

[[It's been an exciting day for one Emmy Altava here in Goldenrod!

Not only did she wake up to find her scooter parked neatly outside her apartment building, but it's full of fuel and working perfectly! So of course, the first thing she does (after breakfast, obviously!) is leap on top of it and start riding it around town in a manner that....might not be considered following the road rules. But she has a license! It's a license from back home but it's....still a license, right?

Oh well!

After a while, she started to feel bad that her Pokemon were being left out. It wasn't fair that they should have to sit in their Pokeballs while she had fun all over the city!

But then Emmy had a brainwave.

So if you happen to be in the streets of Goldenrod, you might see....well.

A Machamp riding a scooter.

This was a fantastic idea, Machi! Go a little faster, I want to take more shots!

[[Completely oblivious to the fact that she could fall and crack her skull open, Emmy is having a marvelous time, while Machi is kind of holding on to her trainer and the scooter for dear life. Having four arms is great, sometimes.

Just wave the Emmymobile down if you want to speak to her; just expect a picture or two!]]

PUZZLE 006 [OLIVINE CITY - VIDEO/ACTION]

[[It's been quite a while since Emmy went to an actual beach, and as such she's currently having an excellent time on the shores of Olivine City! At present she's looking out over the ocean, her Gyarados splashing in the shallows.]]

Hello there! I'm about to head out to Cianwood City, and I was wondering if anyone with experience with the route could give me some tips!

[[She's made a change from her usual crisp attire and is dressed quite casually, really. Emmy is a logical woman and as such she realised her regular clothes weren't quite suited for an ocean journey, so she set out to find a swimsuit. Her choices were....fairly limited, however, so she's found herself in one of those blue bikinis favoured by the swimmers around here.

However, appearing on the video feed dressed in nothing but a bikini is very unladylike, so she's covering herself up with a pair of (....rather short, all things considered....) boardshorts and her blouse. Now she looks beachy, yet classy! Surely, the Professor would approve.]]


Magik and I have been practicing with her new Surf technique, so I think we're all set from that angle! I'd just like to know if there are any sea serpents or giant manatees lurking out there that we should be wary off.

Thank you for your time!

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?]]
snapandscoot: (Correct!)

PUZZLE 004 [ROUTE 32 - VIDEO/ACTION]

[[Should you be wandering the streets of Violet City today, chances are you'll see Emmy happily striding along! If you're nearby, however, chances are you'll be clearing the road fairly soon when you see the Pokemon slowly gliding along behind her.

It's her newly evolved Gyarados and she's quite a monster.]]


Isn't this fantastic, Magik? You've gotten so big!

[[As Emmy walks, Magik rumbling in agreement, she starts breaking into song. Her voice, while not trained, is strong and pure, and she carries the notes with ease. Occasionally, she'll turn to look at the other pokemon following her with a mixture of mild concern and amusement; it's her Ariados, and he's happily bouncing along to the tune.

Should you be from her world, chances are you'll recognize it.

Confident in her surroundings, Emmy twirls and spins with the music, all the while meandering down the road, followed by her two Pokemon. Coming to the end of the melody, she pauses, wrinkling her nose slightly.]]


Oh, what came after that part....

[[...well, she'll just have to start from the beginning again!]]

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!

PUZZLE 002 [ROUTE 30 - VIDEO/ACTION]

[[In order to ensure she catches up to the Professor and co. as soon as possible, Emmy has taken to travelling at night. This has usually failed to present any real issues, but tonight, as she heads to the route just outside Cherrygrove, she finds something that....well.

If you've currently got your pokegear video feed running, you'll probably hear the shriek.]]


Nonononono get away get away!!


[[It's a Spinarak! Which is unfortunate for Emmy, as she happens to be quite arachnophobic. The Pokemon doesn't quite seem to realise that her screaming isn't an invitation to come closer, as it happily starts to approach her to say hello-]]

NO!!

[[....before promptly getting kicked in the face.]]

A-ah....

[[Wild Spinarak fainted! Emmy...didn't...really gain anything, um.

...someone informing her that this...isn't quite the correct way to battle a wild pokemon would be appreciated.]]

PUZZLE 001 [ROUTE 29 - VIDEO/ACTION]

[[With a flicker of static, a concerned young woman comes into view, peering into the screen. Behind her, a Machop is also staring into the camera, albeit with a more positive expression.]]

That appears to have done it...not that tricky of a puzzle, all things considered. Hello? Professor? Luke? Anyone?

[[Frowning slightly, the girl casts a somewhat concerned look at the Pokemon beaming beside her, before furrowing her brow, appearing to be deep in thought.]]

I think I'm alone, but...where? What is this place?

[[The serious look lasts another two seconds before her expression changes to a perky smile, and she looks down at the Pokemon.]]

Well, if I am alone, perhaps that could mean that this is the big puzzle I'm destined to solve! The professor did mention something like that for himself, so why not for me! I can use this as training to become the best assistant he's ever had!

My first challenge, however, will be unraveling the mystery of you...whatever you are...

[[-and her focus shifts once again to the Machop, who promptly cries happily and kicks her arm!]]

Ow! What was tha-....ooh, do you...you want to fight?

...

[[Congratulations, you are now being treated to the (albeit distorted) sight of a woman sparring with a Machop! Emmy appears to have forgotten she's left the PGC on; she's too busy laughing and combatting Machop's strikes with practiced ease. Feel free to interrupt, although be prepared to yell; they're rather involved with their 'battle'!]]
