[Route 29] Video/Action - Ecruteak City

[dreamsofahero]

*once again, a certain someone's Yamask is floating in the background behind Sion as he records, but he seems to be paying it no mind*

Since it sounds as though quite a few people are planning to go to that event being graciously hosted by Blackthorn's gym leader, I was wondering if anyone had any advice about something...

*he shifts the camera to point at a pile of pokeballs, and even more pokemon lounging about the room behind them*

Just how do you go about deciding which pokemon to bring with you?

*he pauses, then adds*

Ah, and Arturia, might I expect to join us there, as well?

You could always draw straws.

Re: [Action]

[dreamsofahero]

And risk winding up with Lucile, River, and Ash all at once?

[Action]

[tearsofademon]

Never said you had to put all of them in for it if you don't want to.

Re: [Action]

[dreamsofahero]

But in that case I really wouldn't be able to call it "fair", you know.

[Action]

[tearsofademon]

By that logic, it's not fair to make sure Arius doesn't end up out with the other fish.

Re: [Action]

[dreamsofahero]

Which is why I'm trying to figure out the best method to decide.

[Action]

[tearsofademon]

Well, I'm sure you'll figure it out.

[...and a gentle brush against your back might indicate that a certain someone else thinks so too, but.]

[bakaitoukid]

Have you tried asking your Pokemon who wants to go?

Re: [video]

[dreamsofahero]

Not exactly; there's enough of them that it's simpler to narrow it down first than trying to ask all of them at once...

*he has over thirty, after all...*

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

Who knows? Maybe there are a bunch of 'em who'd rather stay home.

Re: [video]

[dreamsofahero]

That seems doubtful, knowing them.

[video]

[bakaitoukid]

They're all social types, huh?

Re: [video]

[dreamsofahero]

Or at least wouldn't want to be left out of something they thought would be fun.

[Hmm. You know, that's a very good question, she hadn't thought about it that much. But having more than just a six party team makes her have to choose who goes with her.]

I think I might just pick ones that might need more socialization or need to be accustomed to big groups. [Shifts the video, showing the little Houndour somehow managing to chew on a not annoyed Slugma.]

Think I have my work cut out for me.

Re: Video

[dreamsofahero]

That's certainly an idea, so long as it isn't overdoing it... And it certainly seems you do.

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Oh, is she being asked personally to attend something? She's kept social events in mind for marketing purposes and nothing more. Also casually avoiding that Yamask's presence. ]

Join you there?

Re: video;

[dreamsofahero]

*sort of in the purely platonic "hey we're goint to this cool party why don't you come too" way maybe? at least Marian's behaving herself and not trying to drape over Sion's shoulder while he's talking...*

Well, yes. It sounds like it'll be quite the event, not to mention it's being held in an area that's otherwise inacessible.

*that and he maaaybe wants to make sure he has friends there to hang out with when he gets tired of being sociable...*

[ex_cashcow493]

I would have to leave the Breeding Centre unattended if I were to attend.

[ She doesn't sound too thrilled over that idea, but then again she's never actually shut it down for a holiday before, much less anything else. ]

[dreamsofahero]

Oh? But unless there's something that absolutely has to be seen to, it's not likely that anyone will be seeking its services for those two days...

[ex_cashcow493]

Pokemon cannot fend on their own for two days straight.

[ ... Even though she does have caretaker Pokemon "working" there too. ] I suppose if I leave some of my own here to defend it in my absence, it would be alright.

[dreamsofahero]

You might be able to hire passing trainers to assist for a few days, as well. Surely not everyone will be attending the event...

[video]

[ragnarok_strike]

...I still haven't chosen.
[Laguna's leaving it to last minute.] I mean, I've gotta bring Ragnarok, and Amanda too... but I've got a lot of others who wanna come.

Re: [video]

[dreamsofahero]

*nods*

It does make it difficult, doesn't it?

[video]

[ragnarok_strike]

Yeah - what'll the others think of the guys who end up going?

Re: [video]

[dreamsofahero]

It's certainly one thing to consider. That and the fact that we can't bring many of the larger ones...
