Welcome/Welcome back, you crazy diamonds!

[spiritcrystal]

[An island! This is most certainly not where everyone was just a few moments ago. ...Alright, maybe some of you were on an island. Don't get cheeky.

At everyone's feet is a small note. It gives no description of their location or explanation, of course; it only says one simple thing.

Please choose one.

The note comes along with three Pokéballs with different "starter" Pokémon in them- the three Pokémon can be anything, from a Froakie, Charmander, and Treecko to a Rattata, Patrat, and Bidoof if you're particularly unlucky- and everything in between. If it's not a legendary Pokémon, it's fair game.

Of course, you can only pick one! Trying to go for a second will leave you thinking that you better not get too greedy. If you're one of those types that wouldn't care either way, the other two Pokéballs will simply disappear.

Now go forth, and into a world of Pokémon!]

[Ting Ting Ting Ting-

That's the sound of a baby antimatter ghost poking pokeballs with its tendrils.

These three, to be exact:

(()) (()) (())]

We would like to free you! We don't not remember how to though... we are trying! If only we could find Trainer, she could help!

[That weird triplicated voice you just heard? This little creature. He may be a legendary, but his only mastered extrodinary power is speech. Not pokeballs. Come help?]

It is the button, that opens these devices.
[Did you ask for help? You get Penny, looking so smiley. What sort of Pokemon are you? She's not seen you before, anywhere on her quest.]

[mystriwyrm]

A button? Like the thing to push when you want a human to come to their door? Wiggly knows those!

[He hasn't seen you before either! He's floating over to you now. Hello!]

We also found this, does nice pecha creature know what it is?

[He points with one tendril to a piece of paper- it has symbols that trainers use on it, and he can't read them.

He also lacks tact. Slow down there Wiggly she just met you-]

[Penny can read - she needed to learn, in order to assist her team! Though she is not the best at it - it takes her a full minute to read the note.]
I think it says... 'Please Choose One.'
[She thinks. But she is wondering if you're a Dragon - you seem that way.]
Your name is Wiggly? Mine is Penny.

[mystriwyrm]

Trainer calls Wiggly "Wiggly", but Wiggly is Giratina. We are both! We think Penny is a nice name, though.

[But- "Please choose one"? That sounds troubling. If you're examining him more closely out of draconian curiosity though, now's your chance; he's hovering low to the ground, near the pokeballs, with concern. He looks like a fat, gray wurple. But he's also wearing a metal necklace.]

We can only choose to help one friend?!
