16 - video/action around Azalea inn;

[Well, that's strange. Today, it looks like a Charizard is using Riku's PokéGear. For a few seconds, he flips it around in his hand, making the footage go upside-down and sideways until it finally settles in an upright position.

Once that's done, he leans back a little and snorts. Those who can understand Pokémon should be get the gist of what he's saying, but for the rest, it'll come out as a series of grunts, growls, and roars.]


Alright. I don't normally bother to ask for advice, but I figure someone's gotta know what to do about this. Anyway, here's the deal. My trainer's... well, let's just say he's getting pretty full of himself. Thinks he's better than the Gym Leaders, that there's no one out there who can beat him.

[He sighs.]

Basically, his ego's about to explode. What I'm wondering is if--

[Suddenly, he's interrupted as a Scyther flies into him from the side, waving her blades around.]

Don't say that about him! He should be a Gym Leader! He'd be the best ever!

Relax, will you?

[He pushes Blade out of the way and continues.]

Like I was saying, he's taking things too far. I'm all for getting stronger, but he's too focused on winning battles. Has us beat up on wild Pokémon way weaker than us... for hours. Seriously. Sometimes he'll leave us out there on our own while he does something else. Riku needs to relax-- he's got plenty of time to face the Gym Leaders, and there's no need to train us all the time. And he doesn't have to be the best. The problem is, I'm not sure how to get the message through his thick skull.

His skull's not thick!

I said relax. It's for his own good.

[Blade isn't quite convinced, however, and she flails around in frustration. Around that time, Gear the Skarmory and Slash the Sneasel appear on screen. Gear hurries over to Flare, while Slash slowly follows, heaving a sigh.]

You know, perhaps the problem is that we're too cooperative. If we stood up for our views, then he might reconsider.

But I like running around outside! It's fun, it's fun!

[Rolling his eyes, Flare looks back at the Gear.]

I'll just cut to the chase. How do I get my trainer to quit being such a stubborn prick? I'm all ears.

[With that, he puts down the Gear, right as the other Pokémon start bickering loudly about Riku's training strategy. The things he has to put up with...]

[ooc: Been wanting to do a Poké-post for a while. Anyhow, Riku's team will handle the replies for a while, at least until 'ku gets back.]

[Time for Slash to interject.]

I'd like to add that many great changes occur through revolution and rebellion.

See? If you want him to change, then you have to fight back.

Nooo! I won't let them fight Riku! It's not fair.

[She pouts, waving one of her scythes around.]

They'll have to go through me if they're gonna try!

This is looking out for him! You have to discipline your kids to help them in the long run!

Riku doesn't need discipline! He does just fine. Everyone else is overreacting, that's all.

[Huff.]
