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!]

[Hilarious. That's what he gets for trying to Communicate with Son.] Let's just find a place for me before nightfall.

[feistytrader]

Got it. [Let's... Head into the forest! Yeah!]

[hotboss]

[The woods! Woods are a good place to start. Campfire, some leaves for a pillow, the works.]

[feistytrader]

[And a dinky little blanket. Silver sets it down for a moment and goes off with Weavile to... hunt down Pidgey eggs.

He returns with about six of them and some berries. Dinner!]

[hotboss]

[Giovanni wasn't totally expecting Silver to actually come back, so he thought he'd enjoy a cigarette in his alone time. Upon seeing Silver, he immediately stubs it out. He scavenged for food...? Silver knows what's edible outdoors?] Impressive.

[feistytrader]

[The smoke lingers and he can't help but try and wave it away from his face, but the gesture is short lived and that was praise.]

It's nothing special. [There is a frog thing on his shoulder now. Someone finally opened up his Pokéball.]

[hotboss]

It may as well be a feast. [If this Silver can cook Giovanni isn't even sure what he'll do I mean what the what.]

[feistytrader]

[What was that

I was busy starting a fire and finding a large enough rock for sneasel to slice open and make a pan/oven out of

I've got this covered dad]

[hotboss]

[Are you...sure your name is Silver? This kid is cooking eggs and ?????]

[feistytrader]

[Yes. Good ones. In a timely manner. While Sneasel slices rocks.]

[hotboss]

Who taught you how to cook?

[feistytrader]

I taught myself. [Big sis and his Sneasel friends helped, but he doesn't want to bring big sis up to some weird other Giovanni...] Raw eggs are pretty hard to digest, you know.

[hotboss]

[...Cooking skills, check, conversation skills, still need work.]

[feistytrader]

[...He's disappointing hi- no, he said he wasn't disappointed. He can remember that. Yes.]

[hotboss]

[cough] It looks ready now.

[feistytrader]

...You wouldn't cough if you didn't smoke.

[Yeah he's splitting it evenly and putting sliced berries next to it and everything

At least he has like chopsticks so they don't have to eat this with their hands

they are absolutely 10000% stolen from a resturant, here have a pair

that he is going to serve on this sliced rock that Weavile cut

they're hardcore about this shit okay]

[hotboss]

You're sounding like Archer.

[HAVE FUN MULLING THAT OVER.]

[feistytrader]

No.

[Excuse freaking you hell to the fuck no there are some things that are not okay and that is twelve of them] Don't compare me to some gross and delusional creep.

[hotboss]

[...Okay so maybe he is a little creepy but-] Did something happen?

[feistytrader]

Yeah, and it almost got you killed.

...Other you.

[hotboss]

[Maybe he doesn't want to know. Back to food!]

The restaurant chopsticks are a nice touch. [You ain't fooling him, kid.]

[feistytrader]

A few stolen chopsticks isn't gonna hurt a business. They even give them out for free if you ask sometimes. [These are dinky little disposable ones, after all. They won't last long.

[hotboss]

There are more effective ways to ruin a business, after all.

[feistytrader]

[hotboss]

[Not that...he thinks about it often...hey the eggs are good by the way.]
