IC CONTACT

--shit's supposed to record my voice? Why the fuck would I want to leave a message on this thing anyway? They should know who the fuck they're calling if they're calling me in the first place, and obviously I'm not gonna pick up if I don't like them so...

What do you mean it's already recording?

POKÉMON

( These names are awful, I'm so sorry )

FIRST ERRAND ➣ VIDEO / ACTION [GOLDENROD CITY]

[ ACTION - GOLDENROD CITY ]

( Sit down, Naki. )

[ VIDEO ]

[Well, it's almost a day later and it seems someone has finally managed to get Naki to sit down and listen to reason. Somehow. Now that Naki isn't in the base anymore, he's actually much calmer. The video doesn't reveal much in terms of background and is shot from a low angle, revealing the sky and... not much else. Naki is standing, leaning in a bit to look at the camera, and holding a Magikarp by the tail. He shakes the fish at the camera and glares into it accusingly.]

This thing sucks.

[...Thank you, Naki. Surely no one has figured that one out.]

What's the point of Splash? It doesn't do anything. That's all this useless thing knows.

[The Magikarp flops around a bit at the word "useless", like it's responding to being called by name. Naki looks disgusted and shakes the fish before dropping it unceremoniously to the ground. The camera follows the fish before turning back up to face Naki.]

Where do I get something good? If these things are our only weapons here, I want something powerful.

[Did you just miss the part about training Pokémon to make them stronger, or...?]

Oh, if anyone's got any information about getting home, that would be great too. I just got here so I'm still trying to figure this place out.

[...]

And what is with this stupid music?
