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!]

They're not free!

[HUFFF!!]

Not when they're confined in such tiny cramped spaces!

[Caterpie doesn't seem to mind though, as it's not crawling up Bob's back.]

H-hey no, down boy!

... I just realised how horrible this CR/thread will likely end up because of Clair's AU

[blessedprotector_rising]

[Clair is going to do her best to not twitch. By the first eggs of the season...] Pokeballs have been in use for thousands of years. If they were unsafe, pokemon would not allow themselves to be confined.

alas it is his fate as grunt to have horrible CR

[gruntinglurve]

Yeah? And who decided it's okay to do that? Trainers of course! Well no more since Team Plasfwapfftfffff

[Oops, Caterpie got tired of climbing Bob's back and decided to crawl over his face again. Effectively ruining any speech he may have had going.]

:D

[blessedprotector_rising]

Of course. Pokemon are tools for humans to use. [Clair eyes the caterpie with some distaste, if only because WTF are you letting it get away with man!]

[gruntinglurve]

[For once Bob is utterly speechless. He carefully plucks Caterpie off from his face before glaring furiously at Claire. His eyes are watering but hey, that's normal for Bob!

He's very manly.]

Y...you're all just the same! W-what makes humans better than Pokémon anyway?! They have the right to be free and live the way they want!
