Pika... chu...

[ok]

Yeah, having anything that can zap things is generally not good at hospitals. It'll affect the machines used for patients who depend on them and they could die.

I had a hard time believing it myself, but...
The technology here is much different from what I'm used to, and we definitely didn't have demons or Personae where I come from.
And while I know of a Kanto region, I've never heard of a Johto.

dammit mom!

[It's best not to try and lecture someone like Santa on the pros and cons of forcing people to do crazy things they don't want to do lolNonaryGame so he ignores that part of the conversation now]

I'm guessing that's sort of like one of those guys who fights with demons here or something? A trainer? I'm just tossing these ideas around though so stop me if they sound retarded.

Whatever it means; if you were a champ then I guess you're hot shit?

[palletless]

we never had any persona things either
and i think the only region that doesn't have a natural pokemon population is orre, but geography isn't my strong suite

kanto and johto are just over the mountains from one another
they're sort of sister regions, so they share a champion and a league
culturally they're kinda similar, but johto's more old fashioned

i wish i'd explored it more, now
i might not get a chance for a while

#025 Pikachu, the Mouse Pokemon. It keeps its tail raised to monitor its surroundings. If you yank its tail, it will try to bite you. 1'04", 13.2lbs.

he's a bit hyper
and sassy
and not very good at following orders
but he was my first pokemon, so we're sort of attached to each other

mutation skill- beat someone's face in with the piggy bank, instant KO

[Sssshhhh, the longer it takes for him to fall in to the pit trap of numbers: the game, the more likely he is to NOT get pissy about it!]

i guess so
i mean, pokemon can't talk
not really anyway

and a trainer has to defeat all their regions gym leaders- masters of a specific pokemon type -to even get to challenge the league champ
it's a big deal but i don't really want it to be
hopefully someday someone will challenge me and the baton will get passed
that's how it works

but that implies she'll be useful and not a money wasting dead weight :o

Lemme guess; honour stops you from just taking a dive and passing the torch that way?

I guess if it's as big a pain as you seem to think it is it'd be less like passing the torch and more using the torch to light someone on fire.

i wouldn't be champion if i didn't enjoy battling
it would be like really wanting to become a baker, then giving up once you're successful

i guess there's just aspects of it i wasn't...anticipating
i was in it to prove me and my team could do it
i didn't want to become a political cop

[not_that_sasuke]

I am not familiar with "Pokemon" either.
It's possible they might not even exist in this place.

[palletless]

that's just
so weird

it's like
growing up without
...
okay i can't think of anything even
it's weirder than growing up without PCs

[not_that_sasuke]

You mean computers?

[palletless]

yeah
they're called computers back home too but
everyone shorts it to PC

[not_that_sasuke]

[Makes sense.]

They're fairly common where I'm from as well.

[Though probably not for the same reasons.]

A mouse... Pokemon. What's a "Pokemon"...? Is that some kind of taming monster thing?
