First Kunai: [Video]

[itsjustdust]

[The first thing that everyone hears as the connection turns on is a rather loud, painful sounding clatter which indicated that the Pokédex had just made a rather abrupt acquaintance with the ground.]

Ah crap. Sorry! Sorry everyone! [The picture resolves itself at this point into a rather sheepish looking teenager, who is turning the device this way and that, clearly trying to determine which way was up.] I'm kinda new here and haven't gotten used to all the new technical stuff that this place seems to have. This thing is pretty sleek though right? Even if the road is pretty, well, snowy. And cold. But hey, I have Katon so it's not like I'll freeze!

[There was a nearly upside down showing of his Ponyta at this point before he finally settled on an angle, which thankfully seemed to be right way up as the camera focused on him again.] Anyway, I just wanted to give an all call and a hello to everyone out there and ask a rather uh, specialized question.

Only a few of you might get what I'm getting at here but, um, did anyone else seriously fail the whole climbing ledges class after getting here that I could have sworn that I'd passed when I was seven? I mean, I got down fine but... serious issues getting back up.

Like, really serious issues.

I actually meant the surprise of being here but good to know about the other stuff..

Rin is totally like a walking guide, which is awesome! But I'm gonna feel guilty if I don't know -anything- without bugging him first you know? Oh! You two look kinda alike, what's your name? Are you the Riku dude or is that a coincidence?

Yeah, that'd be me.

[Heh. At least his Data-self cleared that up ahead of time.]

As for the guide, I'll go ahead and leave it as an attachment. If nothing else, it could be a handy reference.

[Though probably less for Breeders than hardcore battle types like Riku.

And here's the Attachment.]

[All the info is good info!]

That's super great. I mean, by a lot. Even if it's not good for the whole 'you're a breeder' stuff or something I'll still know how to -train- my guys. What with the whole 'it's an element, you can't do it anymore but teach it anyway' thing I have going on you know?

Exactly. In this world, you have to adapt. And just because you're a breeder doesn't mean you can't build a tough team. Heck, my best friend's a breeder this time around, and he loves battling.

Teams are excellent. [Cue bright smile.] It'll be really awesome to have a team that relies on me as much as I rely on them for once.

Well, as long as you don't wind up with a bunch of unruly Pokémon. Not all of them are dying to cooperate.

[He shudders.]

But at least the Pokémon around New Bark are at low levels. They're easier to deal with than something that's completely maxed out.

Soooo some of the pokémon. [He paused, working over the word, yeah that'd take some time to get used to.]

Right, some pokemon are super crank and uncooperative? I'll feel like I'm back home in no time in that case!
