002 Bushels ❦ [Video/Action]

[Hello, people of Johto. Today you’re in for a treat. The journal feed opens rather abruptly, as the force of a flying Magikarp shakes the screen. A frustrated southern belle sits patiently at the shoreline, an old rod in her hand.]

Alright, y’all. What’s with all these here Magikarp? I’ve been fishin’ here all day, and the only thing nibblin’ are these useless bottom-feeders.

[She taps her chin a couple times.] Maybe if I catch one, it’ll scare the rest of ‘em away, ‘r somethin’.

[She digs though her bag, shuffling her way through the disarray inside, eventually retrieving a pokeball. Aiming at the fish that hit her pokegear, she boredly tosses the ball. It shakes a couple times, before clicking shut. Applejack bends over and picks up the ball, presenting it to the camera and speaking quickly:] Alright, y’all, listen up. This here’s Rainbow Dash. Empty headed son… [She mumbles to herself, plopping the unfortunate fish into her bag before retrieving her rod.]

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go catch me somethin’ worth seein’!

[She has no idea what she’s getting herself into.]

Oh, Magikarp? They only grow up to be completely awesome... [Ritz is kneeing her Epic Knifebird Mount out of the shot and throwing a pokeball; suddenly, the streets of Goldenrod have Andre the Gyarados staring down at the gear.]

Oh my-- [Excuse her a second. She's never seen anything like that before.]

This is Andre. I caught him as a Magikarp. I had to keep sending him out and then switching for a pokemon that was more directly useful like Brenda here- [Ritz is patting the Skarmory with the hand not partially in a cast.] but after he evolved he was a force of nature. he also makes a good guy to travel with because he's big enough that half our traveling party's gear is nothing at all to him.

An' that big guy came from one of these wall-eyed bubble-blowers? [She looks down at Rainbow's ball in disbelief. No way can she be telling the truth.]

Yep! Some pokemon evolve after they win enough fights, or some other things happen.

Some need special items, or need to be happy with their trainer. [Ritz is pointing at Bijou.] Eevees, like what she was, evolve into either an Espeon- what she is- or Umbreon depending on the time of day, as well as being really happy.

I write down what I see, and I ask around, mostly. There are other people who've been here longer than I have, after all!

Seems like just about everypony's been here longer than I have.
