[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?

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.

Well, at least you now know what sort of moves it can use in battle. Is your spine still in one piece?
[video/PGC filter]
[Oof. He's still rubbing his back as he picks up the 'Gear.]
Hope your Umbreon hasn't tried pulling a stunt like that. This guy had to weigh at least fifty pounds...
[video/PGC filter]
[You break it you fix it, or something. If healing moves even work on humans.]
[video/PGC filter]
[The Sylveon tilts his head for a moment, then squeaks. Healing? Dude, he's only level five!
Though he will rub at his back with a feeler... at least until Riku swats it away.]
Still trying to figure out what fairy types can even do. Spread sparkles and rainbows? If this guy's any indication, I'm expecting a lot of pink...
[video/PGC filter]
[Edges nods to that. Yeah, Crystal might be super quiet but it's all pretty and sparkly, like an evolution stone!]
[video/PGC filter]
[Pfft. The Sylveon puffs his chest out, flexing his feelers. Yeah, the dragons ain't got nothing on the Sylveon brigade.]
But I could see those rock guys being fairies. They did seem to take dragon hits pretty well. Same goes for the keyrings.
[video/PGC filter]
[Edges sniggers. Yep, even rude Dora and bully Kayne couldn't do win that fight.]
I wonder if every Fairy-type species is so small? Not that I expect any to be as large as Steelix or Wailord, but still...
[video/PGC filter]
[Ooh, what's this? A Gym battle? Ooh! The Sylveon's bouncing up and down with excitement, and Riku presses his palm against his forehead, trying to calm his bouncy spirit.]
Hmm... That's a good point. Without knowing all the fairies, it's a tough call. But we've got dragon types that don't even look like dragons. Maybe there's a fairy out there that's a huge, hulking monster./. with butterfly wings.
[video/PGC filter]
...If you somehow find a hulking monstrous fairy with butterfly wings and use it to defeat Clair's Elite team, I'll buy you as many drinks as you wish during the victory party.
[Because what he just imagined was beautiful.]
[video/PGC filter]
[His lips curl into a broad smirk, and he raises a clenched fist.]
I'll find the burliest, most vicious fairy out there and steamroll that team. And I'll share it with the world.
[video/PGC filter]
[So is the thought of a victory party, for that matter.]
[video/PGC filter]
If not... well, I'll pick the manliest fairy I can find.

[He makes it sound so easy.]
