12 - video/action for route 34;

[Today, Riku's decided to head out towards the Daycare to check up on the Charmander and Totodile eggs he's been planning to sell. Joining him is his new Riolu, who curiously looks around at all the snow while Flare, his Charmeleon, stomps around, occasionally looking up at the sky and swishing his tail.]

Oh, c'mon. We can train in a bit. I just want to fetch the eggs real--

Rrrah!

[The Riolu chimes in with some barking, looking at some nearby grass. Training!]

Don't even think about it. You're not at the right level to battle on your own. Now, c'mon.

[He continues towards the Daycare with his Riolu at his side, but Flare doesn't seem to care. Instead, he wanders off into some grass and starts spewing flames. Eventually, an angry Drowzee appears, hitting the Charmeleon with some psychic attacks. However, there's a huge level gap between the two, and Flare is barely phased by the attack. Instead, he retaliates with a slash attack and roars. Before long, he's defeated the Drowzee and starts to glow.

His roars get louder and deeper as he increases in size, eventually sounding something like this. After that, the glow fades, revealing a newly evolved Charizard, and a big one at that.]


Heh, so that's why you were in a hurry.

[A little bit later, the video feed starts up again, this time inside the Daycare.]

A while back, I mentioned breeding some Charmander eggs. Well, I've got them now. If anyone's interested, I'll be selling them for about 10,000. I've also got a few Totodile eggs to go around. Just let me know if you want one, and I can send Highwind over with the eggs--

[There's a grunt in the background.]

Or I guess Flare could handle it.

Sounds like one of the parents is pretty protective, huh?

I'll take a Charmander egg if you still have one.

He probably just wants an excuse to fly around. Been looking at the sky all day, even before he evolved.

[A beat.]

Anyway, I can do that. You're still in Goldenrod, right?

[video]

[personal profile] bakaitoukid 2011-01-01 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. 'M staying at the inn. I can meet you there.

[video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
See you in a bit. I'll have the egg in a second, and then I'll head over.

[video]

[personal profile] bakaitoukid 2011-01-04 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Great! I'll see you soon. [assume transfer?]

[video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-04 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
Got it.

[Assuming is fine!]

Congratulations on both the eggs and the evolution. You're Riku, right? I don't think I managed to catch you on the Gear since I first got to Johto.

[Video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's me. We spoke a while back, right?
dragonspeak: (I've got a plan)

[personal profile] dragonspeak 2011-01-03 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
About two months ago now. I never did get to thank you for your help that first time.

[Video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-04 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, no problem. Starting out here can be rough, so it's the least I could do.

[video]

[identity profile] will-to-burn.livejournal.com 2011-01-01 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
Woooooow!

[ Who's impressed by Flare's size? Hikaru is impressed by Flare's size. She wasn't expecting the Charmeleon to evolve into something so huge, but that's not going to stop her from issuing a proper -- ]

Congratulations, Riku-kun! And you, Flare-chan!

[video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
[...Hikaru, you dork. Flare seems pretty pleased with himself, though. He'd say thanks, but all he can do is snort, grunt, and roar.

But Riku can talk, at least!]


Thanks. It took a while, but he should be pretty useful now.

[video]

[identity profile] will-to-burn.livejournal.com 2011-01-05 11:17 am (UTC)(link)
I bet!

[ And oh, but that expression of hers turns inquisitive so fast because Hikaru? She's got an idea in her head and it's just about as dorky as she is honest in pitching her question to Riku and inadvertently to Flare. ]

Hey, do you think Flare-chan'd mind if I tried to pet him sometime? I mean, I've never petted a real, live dragon before and Flare-chan's huge!

[video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Go ahead. I don't know how he'd take it, but I doubt he'd bite or anything.

[video]

[identity profile] will-to-burn.livejournal.com 2011-01-08 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Okay! Next time I see you guys, I will!

[ And that alone makes her really, really happy. See? Oh, and -- ]

Good luck with the eggs, Riku-kun!

[ ... oh, like Kairi would be a smart future sickie and stay inside when her best friend's out and holy what the dragon. Guess who'll be meeting you on the way back, Riku? ]

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, that dragon and Riku are heading her way, not even thinking that much about sickness themselves.]

What are you doing all the way out here?

[action]

[identity profile] pluckycharm.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ surely this won't end horribly in a few more days. ]

What do you mean? I wanted to congratulate you!

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-04 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah? Well, thanks.

[He smirks... and so does his bigass dragon. He might not be as prideful as Highwind, but going from a lizard to something this intimidating is pretty awesome.]

[action]

[identity profile] pluckycharm.livejournal.com 2011-01-04 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... not that Kairi's intimidated at all, but she DOES think he's pretty cool-looking. ] Do you think it's okay to pet him?

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-05 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
You can try. Might be hard to reach his head, though.

[...Petting, what? Petting a dragon? Flare looks absolutely baffled by this idea.]

[action]

[identity profile] pluckycharm.livejournal.com 2011-01-05 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
Like you said, I can try!

[ ... though as she gazes up at Flare, she's thinking climbing probably isn't an option. ]

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Pff. Well, for now, he's just gonna stand still, looming over Riku's shoulder.]

Just be glad he's not like Highwind.

[action]

[identity profile] pluckycharm.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Highwind wouldn't even let me get that close?

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I doubt it. He's too prideful for anything like that.

[action]

[identity profile] pluckycharm.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
That's too bad... but getting pecked by him would probably hurt a lot. [ so she gives the FIRE-BREATHING DRAGON an affectionate pat on the side instead. Yeah, no way she's reaching his head. ]

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-09 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[In return, Flare snorts. Silly, Kairi.]

Pretty sure the only person he tolerates is me. Highwind doesn't even like half of my team.

[action]

[identity profile] pluckycharm.livejournal.com 2011-01-09 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[ hey, even giant dragons need affection. ]

Maybe you should work with him on that. Ven said you guys battled together, so what if he's got to fight with someone else one day?

[On his way back, Terra will be there with a proud grin.]

Congrats.

Thanks, Terra.

[Terra's proud of him! How happy he is inside.]

You're...selling eggs?

[He knows a kid that likes baby Pokémon...]

[video]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
That's right. Figured I could make some quick money with rare eggs.

[video]

[identity profile] cheapblusuits.livejournal.com 2011-01-15 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
...huh. That's news to me...

[A pause. It looks like he's doing some calculations in his head.]

If you still have some, I'd like to buy one. Maybe...

[video] one million years later...

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-25 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I've got plenty. 10000 sound like a reasonable price?

[video] Haha, no problem! Shall we say they made the exchange while Phoenix was still in Goldenrod?

[identity profile] cheapblusuits.livejournal.com 2011-01-27 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
That sounds good to me. Er -- are you in Goldrenrod?

[video] that sounds like a good idea to me!

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-31 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
That's right.

[there is another bff running toward Riku once he gets closer to Goldenrod, ready to congratulate him and SNEEZE ON HIM AHAHAHAHA--]

[action]

[identity profile] islandshore.livejournal.com 2011-01-03 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Did you really just sneeze on him, Sora?

Yeah, in return, Riku will give him a light shove.]
