1. [New Bark Town] Backdated: 11th January

[illusioning]

[When the PokeGear clicks on, it probably doesn't seem as though it should. Yes, this new trainer is in New Bark Town, like the rest of all the trainers. The question is, why is this so off?

If it even appears to be.

So, standing there, outside of 'Mum's House' is someone who looks like THE MIDDLE GUY. Cap and all. It's not the real one, mind you, but it's close enough. It just doesn't have the text on the front, plain black, nice and shiny and new. It's purpose is kind of ruined though, as Niou is not at the end of year party at all, instead he's in Johto.

Just in case anyone here will know him though, he's going to have a little fun. He takes a moment to tug the bill of the cap down a little, straight facing at the camera.]

Tarundoru.

[Oh, hey, fresh meat.

Even if it isn't a team mate, Niou decides to keep up the façade. If only because he might be able to ruin Sanada's image a little-]

Hn. [He adjusts the cap on his head again, gives the girl a glare.] I just got here. [So that's a yes.]

Oh, great! Then let me start again!

Welcome to Johto!!! Hope you like the critter that's with you 'cause you're gonna be stuck with it! And I hope that you like camping! And fighting. And whatever else!

[Well, that's more than he got out of his teammates for information, though his Gastly answers for him. By covering his face and laughing into the camera.

Until nudges the Pokemon out of the way enough so he can see her, trying to look annoyed when he's anything but. Seems like he got an interesting partner, after all.]

'Critter'...? [He repeats that back at her though, because a second later another Ghost type Pokemon pops up - this time a Mismagius. Who totally found him when he arrived after it's trainer left.

Sanada is a man of few words though, so if he's going to do this right, he isn't going to talk too much.]

Yup! It's called a Pokemon! They're all over this place!

Am I really the first person to explain all of this to you? 'cause if I am you should just ask questions.

[illusioning]

The first to explain it, yes. [Because he's not really letting on to other people that he hasn't been here before. He's not stupid though. He knows they're Pokemon, he was commenting more on her singular term before.

Either way, it's not his face that he's making stupid, is it?]

Is this just like the games?

[That alone should answer everything for him.]

Ummm~~~ sure?

[illusioning]

What else is there to know?

Video ☆

[carefreeme]

Not much. You can get gym badges or breed or work or whatever suits your fancy. That's about it, I guess.

[Heh. Turns out it was nothing more than he knew anyway. Well, other than the work thing.

He does have another question in mind though.]

Is there any prize for the badges?

[Hey, even Sanada might want to know that.]
