[The feed begins with a series of snapshots. It starts with images of a war-torn battlefield lined with giant crystals, Team Aqua and Magma grunts and hordes of Pokémon and trainers alike.]
This world isn't safe.
[The images shift. New snapshots appear of Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon, taken from a safe distance above, but distinct in that they are indeed giant, glowing monsters.]
What happened last week is proof of that. You may all be content to enjoy a carefree lifestyle, but if it weren't for divine intervention, life as we know it would have ended with a whimper.
Together, we were able to hold off Team Aqua and Magma's forces, but the battle doesn't end there. If you could make a difference in the protection of this world, would you do it?
[The message ends there. About a half hour later, another text appears on the network, this time from a non-anonymous source.]

So, I think we all learned something valuable from that mess down at Tohjo: Don't summon giant lizards and whales to start the apocalypse. God doesn't like it.
There's a lot I could say. It was a busy few days, but if you look past all the legendaries, the explosions, and those cornball teams, there are two things that stick out to me: the weird power up some of our Pokémon got and the Pokémon god himself.
[Case in point? Here's an image of a Mega Sharpedo getting punched in the nose by a Mega Charizard X.]
So, what do you guys think that power was? Did any of you get a straight answer from Arceus? And how about that fairy type?

By the way, looking for a status report from all remaining members. With so many of us gone, we're gonna have to shuffle the squads. That's also why I sent out a recruitment message.

[Good thing this is text, because the comment on uniforms actually got him to chuckle.]
I hope it's more comfortable. Never did like the look of their get ups, but I guess beggars can't be choosers.
And so far, it's going pretty well. Got a couple potential recruits, someone who may be interested in selling his skills to the Corps, and a new ally located in Pewter. I'm trying to stay cautious just in case, but nobody's been too suspicious, at any rate.

I'm pleased to hear that you've gotten a few bites. That's the difficult thing, isn't it? We need to boost our numbers, but we need to be so careful about how we go about recruiting people...mind you, at least if we get any sneaky Team Rocket members trying to get in, I should be able to pick them!
[Hopefully, anyway. It's amazing, how different people can look once they're out of uniform...]
If anyone seems dodgy, just let me know. For now, I'm happy to keep being our eyes and ears on the ground.

She acts like she's some kind of superhero and doesn't seem like the type to pull wool over our eyes, but you can never be too sure. Trainer ID is coming up as Cynthia.

I suppose you're texting with her, rather than video? Hmm. If you like, I can try and talk to the Cynthia I've spoken to - although I had no idea she was a fellow TR member!

I've been using text, but we have met before. Still, if you want to meet with her in the flesh, that'd be great. I'm gonna be on the move while I meet with the other newbies, so I'd definitely appreciate the extra hand.
