1st live [video/action] - new bark town
[ as the device's screen turns on, you're treated to the sight of two ralts. they don't seem to be doing anything in particular, but that's enough to inspire makoto to pull out of her device. this thing takes pictures, right? she's not entirely sure, but if it's a phone, it's gotta have that kind of function!
so while she fiddles with her device, inadvertently turning it on, she calls out to another person. ]
Hey, Ryo! Ryo! Look! They're cute, aren't they?
[Another voice gives a light giggle at Makoto's excitement. When she's excited like this, even Ryo can't stay worried about their predicament!]
You really like them, don't you Makoto-san...? Though, to be honest, I think they're more "cool" than "cute".
Really? [ no, they definitely look cute to her. she stares a bit longer, before quietly deciding to herself that they're definitely more "cute" than "cool". but more importantly... ]
Oh! I think this is recording. [ uh... whoops? she turns her device so it's facing ryo, figuring they should give their audience something more than two cute pokemon rolling around. ] Um... quick, say something!
Eh?! Why me?!
[Ryo's shocked face takes up the entire screen. What do?! All right, back up back up... Okay, much better. Well, "something" was kinda vague, and arguing with Makoto is something Ryo doesn't want to do, so... A greeting, maybe? That's pretty basic. Time to flash a bright smile!]
Umm... H-How do you do? I'm Ryo Akizuki. I'm an idol from 876 Productions, though I don't think it really matters right now... With me, is, um... [Ryo tries to discreetly whisper, though it's pretty audible.] Makoto-san, maybe you should say something too?
[ at those words, maktoo turns the camera around so that she's the one on screen now. ]
I'm Makoto Kikuchi, from 765 Production! If I have any fans here, I don't mind giving autographs! [ she laughs a bit as she says it, making clear that she's just joking. she's hardly that popular yet. ] But anyways... it's nice to meet you!
[ she nods, satisfied by the message, before turning back to Ryo. she thinks the message has ended now, though obviously it hasn't... ]
That was good, right?
[Ryo nods, satisfied.]
Yes! You're amazing as always. [Though anything Makoto does is amazing to Ryo---] Hm? It looks like... you might have left it on.
Eh? No, I made sure I... ack, you're right!
[ makoto fumbles around with the device a bit before finally, this time successfully, turning it off. ]

Everyone here seems pretty nice, Makoto-san! [It's eased Ryo's fear a bit too.] I kind of got the gist of what's going on now, but... I wonder what we should do next?
action.
[ well, she means other idols specifically, but ryo probably understands that. ]
Eh? What do you mean? [ to her, it's obvious what they do next... ] We're supposed to train these little guys and go on an adventure! [ wooooooo. ]
action.
Oh, right! Silly me. [Ahaha yeah.] Apparently wild Pokémon hide in the tall grass at the route nearby and we use ours to battle them... And you can catch them too! [Okay, he'll admit. As weird as everything is, this is all pretty damn cool. It... shouldn't be that bad, right?]
action.
So we can get more? [ her eyes light up at that... and also show she hasn't really being paying much attention on instructions or anything like that. ] That's so cool! Where's the tall grass? [ she finds nothing particularly strange about this tall grass mechanic either.
...admittedly she isn't prone to questioning what she's told. ]
action.
Y-Yeah... [He whips his
suspiciously redPokégear out, and goes to the map function.] We go the only path out to Route 29, and apparently there's some patches we can go through.Though, Makoto-san, I think we shouldn't go too far yet... You know, just in case other people we know end up here too. Plus, we need to get the hang of things first...
action.
You're really good at this! [ she pulls out her own pokegear to more or less do the same thing and confirm it, but more just to get familiar with it herself. ] I'd be pretty stuck without you... [ a nervous laugh. she's at least self aware about it. ]
I was thinking that too. I want to go look around in the tall grass a little, but I don't want to go too far right away. [ a few more exuberant nods, before she grabs his arm. ] But for now, let's go! [ whether you like it or not .-. ]
action. 1/2
Yeah, he'll do all he can to help Makoto. One of his treasured
NAKAMAfriends.]Eheh, it's probably because I always have to look after Ai-chan and Eri-chan back home. [He really hopes they're doing okay... Aaaah, reminiscence those lovely days---]
action.
GYAOOOOOOOOOOOOON!
action.
or drag her. ]
This is tall grass, right? [ she stands right outside of it now, turning to ryo. ] Do you want to go in first, or should I?
[ she honestly thinks you might want to, ryo. she really does. ]
action.
He blinks at Makoto's question. Honestly, he's kind of scared and doesn't want to go first. Then again, Ryo has the feeling that Makoto hasn't read any of the guidebook at all... He's kind of a got a good idea of how it should be done, at least.
Sigh. The things he does for his friends.
Looks like he'll have to be the DUDE to Makoto's GOLD.]I-I suppose I can... But you'll have to back me up if things don't go well, Makoto-san.
action.
[ she wants to go first, to be honest, but as ryo's senpai she figures it's her responsibility to let him have that honor. and the fun. maybe more fun than honor. she just turns her gaze from ryo to the grass, then back to ryo again. ]
Whenever you're ready!
[ way too excited about this. ]
action.
Right, right...
[He'll just... reluctantly step into the grass and BAM!]
Whoa!
[A wild RATTATA has appeared! Suddenly, the Pokégear in Ryo's hand beeps, a robotic voice coming out through its speaker: Rattata. A mouse Pokémon. Living wherever there is food available, it ceaselessly scavenges for edibles the entire day.
Ryo glances down at the screen.]
Rattata... This place really does help us get through this. [He gulps nervously.] Um... Okay, here I go! Ralts, please come out!
[WIMPY GIRLY TOSSING DAT POKEBALL! Pachoo instant Ralts, quite pumped up and ready to battle!]
action.
Whoa! That thing looks pretty tough!
[ though from her glee at seeing it, she's clearly not too concerned. the sudden change in background music just seems to pump her up even more... nothing about that seems strange at all. ]
Come on, Ryo! Ralts! Do your best!
[ insert a few punches through the air here. in case you needed a demonstration of what she's getting at. ]
action.
However, in the midst of his fumbling, wild RATTATA used TACKLE!]
Aaaaah! D-Dodge it, Ralts!
[Just narrowly, Ralts manages to evade the attack with a sidestep!]
Umm... Umm... And then use... Confusion...?
[Suddenly HOLY SHIT PSYCHIC FOREHEAD BEAM right at the wild RATTATA, knocking it away some distance.]
... Wow. Makoto-san, did you see that?!
action.
but regardless... ]
You're winning, Ryo!
[ she's pretty sure of that, at least. ]
Just keep going, and...
[ knock the cute thing out? hm, now that she's considering the end result of this, that's kind of... depressing... ]
Um... just keep going!
action.
[3 CYCLES OF DRAMATIZED CONFUSION/TACKLE SPAM LATER...]
Er. Maybe I should try to catch it, right...? [The mouse thing seems pretty tired, after all. Okay, fetching a ball from his bag, and...] Go!
[The wimpy-tossed Pokeball bounces lightly off the wild RATTATA and opens up once it lands on the ground, pulling the Pokemon inside.
One twitch.
Two twitch.
Three... Click!
Congratulations, Ryo. You have caught the crappiest
top percentagePokemon ever.]action.
as an idol, ryo should be proud of that performance.
even if it had nothing to do with being an idol. ]
You got it! Good job!
[ in fact, have a hug for your trouble. ]
action.
Even if Ryo was used from getting hugs from girls thanks to Ai and Eri, this was Makoto! The one idol he wanted to be more like! He couldn't help but blush a bit, but he doesn't hesitate in returning the hug.
This was a celebration, after all!]
I really did it! It's all thanks to your support! [Somehow.]
Um, well. It seems like we both know how it's done now... Does Makoto-san want to have a try at it?
action.
[ so steps steps into the tall grass herself, not sure what to expect. when nothing happens, she takes a few more steps before... ]
Ah...!
[ a sentret appears, standing proudly on its tail. makoto doesn't really waste any time marveling at the new creature, instead pointing dramatically wither finger. ]
Get it, Ralts!
[ to which her pokemon just responds by... flopping to the ground, clearly unmotivated. ]
Eh? Wha... what's wrong? Why isn't it attacking?
action.
Um. What do.]
P-Perhaps you need to be a bit more specific~?
action.
[ then... ]
Do what Ryo's did!
[ the ralts just looks at makoto confused... before suddenly getting hit by a Tackle.
smooth. ]
I... it's losing... [ why is it so weak sob... ]
action.
[Ryo couldn't help but wince at that. This isn't good! Not good at all! He better do something, quick!
Well, since they have the same Pokemon, Ralts should have the same moves too, right...? So---]
Makoto-saaaaaaaaaaan! Tell it to use Confusion like I did with mine!
action.
[ and she sucks in her breath, before shouting as loud as she can... ]
RALTS! USE CONFUSION!!!
[ and perhaps shocked by the volume of her voice, the ralts does just that... twice as hard as it normally would.
managing to get a critical and knocking out the poor sentret. ]
action.
Either way, he's glad both of them are okay. He lets out a sigh of relief.]
Hah... Safe... Um, are you okay?
action.
Yeah... I wasn't the one fighting, after all.
[ she goes to her ralts, patting it on the head as a reward.
...though despite what she says, she seems to be more tired out than her pokemon. ]
