Video/Action for Goldenrod area

[red_roses]

[A rather...bedraggled Ib appears on the feed today. Flower and Lief the Bunneary and Chikorita look equally dirty and tired. Razzle the Eevee is having none of that and is curled up.]

I was w-wondering if anyone could help me...

I've been trying to catch a Ditto- they're very good for breeding Pokemon. B-But they keep beating us! Poor Flower and Lief just can't keep up with the transformations, and Razzle won't help at all....

[Now, she looks like she's going to start crying.]

The last one jumped on my face and made me run into a tree and fall down in the dirt! [Here comes the tears.] I didn't know it was going to be so hard...!

[Crocker stares, this is so so awkward and he's not sure what he's suppose to do with those tears that look like they're going to come. Usually, that puts joy in him but with her...]

The last one sounded like it was friendly?

Re: [Video]

[red_roses]

[Hiccup!] I don't think it was trying to be my friend....

[crackpotcrocker]

[Oh noes! Crocker continues to look nervous with the face she's making. What does he do? What does he do?! Or rather how does he make this better?]

How do you know?

Re: [Video]

[red_roses]

B-Because it looked so angry!

[Video]

[crackpotcrocker]

[Nervous. Nervous so nervous!]

Well, have any of the - POKEMON - you've captured actually been happy about that?

Re: [Video]

[red_roses]

I...hatched all of them from eggs....

[crackpotcrocker]

Oh. [Denzel scratches the back of his head.]

I'd offered my prototype catching device but I'm not in the area at the moment.

[That and his invention is a bit unorthodox.]

Re: [Video | Locked]

[red_roses]

Oh...[Sniffle.] Th-thank you anyway, Mr. Crocker.

[Video | Locked]

[crackpotcrocker]

You're - WELCOME!

Why is a Ditto so great for breeding, mmm?

Re: [Video | Locked]

[red_roses]

I don't know....maybe because they can transform?

[Video | Locked]

[crackpotcrocker]

Mmmm. THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE! [There's a few moments of crazy laughing.]

Anyways, let me ask Joker if I can borrow his fire horse - POKEMON and we can tag team against the Ditto.

How does that sound? FAIRIES!

Re: [Video | Locked]

[red_roses]

You would really do that for me?

[Video | Locked]

[crackpotcrocker]

That's just a plain silly question - YES!

[Because apparently he just isn't getting joy in her about to cry. How strange!]

Re: [Video | Locked]

[red_roses]

That's so nice! Thank you!

[crackpotcrocker]

I'll be right over. FAIRIES!

[And sure enough not too long later, Crocker is riding a Rapidash and spots Ib and tells the Pokemon to halt!]

Well, I'm getting better at this at least this time I didn't fall off.

Hello there.

[As the man releases Growlithe from her Pokeball and she greets Ib with a friendly bark.]

Action

[red_roses]

That was so fast! Aw, hello, little Growlithe!

Action

[crackpotcrocker]

[Crocker spoke too soon, and Rapidash decided to lift it's front legs and Crocker along with it. Growlithe just winces at her trainer falling off.]

OW!

I know it was fast. That's why they call this - POKEMON, Rapidash.

[Crocker pulls himself together and dusts himself off.]

Suppose we should get started. So.. where exactly have you see these 'Dittos', mmm?

Re: Action

[red_roses]

Are you okay?

Re: Action

[crackpotcrocker]

I'll live.

[Meanwhile, Growlithe nods and goes over to properly greet Ib.]

Let's get going, shall we?

Re: Action

[red_roses]

[Deep breath!] Okay!

Re: Action

[crackpotcrocker]

[Denzel summons his Eevee, Arbok, Mightyena and his Samurott.]


Now... Where exactly have you seen these Dittos?

Re: Action

[red_roses]

J-Just outside of town....

Action

[crackpotcrocker]

Well what are we standing around here for?

[In other words, Ib let's go and show him.]

Re: Action

[red_roses]

O-Okay! [Off they go!]

Re: Action

[crackpotcrocker]

[Crocker leads the way, with Eevee, Arbok, Mightyena Samurott and Growlithe following close behind. Truthfully they didn't like that their trainer cheats but they also respect their trainer as well.]

Mmmm.. [Crocker parts the tall grass.]

No - No. NO! Blast where are they? WHERE ARE THEY??!
