011 Bushels ❦ [Video/Action for Violet]

[buckyouup]

[Applejack is standing under a tree, her gaze locked on a single red apple hanging from a branch. She grits her teeth. Dumb human body. If she was a pony, this wouldn't be any problem at all. But damnit, she was hungry. She had to try.]

Alright, Applejack. It's just like back home. Nice an' easy, no problem.

[She backs up a couple steps, before running at the tree. When she gets close, she brings up her leg, forcing it into the trunk of the tree with all her might. She stays there, for a moment, glaring at the trunk, which hasn't budged an inch. The adrenaline quickly wearing off, Applejack yelps, rolling off the tree and grabbing her ankle.]

Dang it! Dumb apple, why can't you just fall!?

[Suddenly, shifting in the branches! AJ's eyes quickly dart up, smiling in expectation. She closed her eyes, holding out her hands. Soon that delicious ruby would be in her hands, and she'll finally be able to--OOF!]



[Applejack's eyes widen as the much-larger-than-an-apple pokemon lands on her chest. The Pineco's eyes narrow, growling.]

Uh, hey there, sugarcube. Let's not get too hasty...

[The feed cuts with the sound of an explosion.]

Comments

[bestofthebest]

Yeah yeah, you can't see what's inside the eggs when you get 'em. And she wants one of every type.

[buckyouup]

Can't say I blame her. Every one of these pokey-mon I've seen has been real useful for something. Havin' one of every type means you're prepared for anythin'.

[bestofthebest]

Yeah, but I just want the awesome ones like Daring and Blaze, and any other types that are just as awesome.

[buckyouup]

[Sigh.]

Too bad the only thing mine's good at is eatin'.

[bestofthebest]

Hehehe, did he really eat your shoes and socks?!

[buckyouup]

An' my jacket. It wasn't pretty. Thank goodness Twilight showed up when she did, or I'd be a ponysicle out there right now.

[bestofthebest]

...Yeah, like I had to.

(Rainbow frowned lightly, pleased that Applejack didn't have to endure the harsh cold winds, but still - it hadn't even been a day, and Dash went nearly 2 weeks until she saw her friends again.)

[buckyouup]

...Sorry about that, Rainbow. I reckon Twilight wanted t'get me to Fluttershy as quick as she could.

[bestofthebest]

I know, but you even got to fly over here! It's gonna be forever before I can find a flying Pokemon.

[buckyouup]

That ain't true. There's lots of flyin' pokemon around. Just most of 'em are hidin' from the cold! We just gotta go lookin' for 'em.

[bestofthebest]

Yeah...! And Blaze can evolve into a flying type, tool maybe he'll grow big enough for me to ride him.

(Somepony's been looking at her PokeGear...)

[buckyouup]

That'd sure be neat. Just watch out for that tail of his.

[bestofthebest]

Of course! Maybe I'll even let you ride him a few times.

[buckyouup]

An' maybe I'll let you ride my flyin' pokey-mon too.

[bestofthebest]

Awesome~!

...Wait, your flying Pokemon? (Is Applejack remembering a few things?)

[buckyouup]

I mean... if I have one. I don't really remember what my old team was like.

[She sighs in frustration.] But I reckon we'll find out when we get to Goldenrod.

[bestofthebest]

Yeah...it's a pretty big city, isn't it? Like Canterlot-big?

[buckyouup]

I can't say for sure, but what I remember, it felt a lot like Manehattan.

[bestofthebest]

Wow...Manehattan big, huh?

[buckyouup]

With buildin's up to the sky an' everything.

[bestofthebest]

Wow! It sounds a lot more like Cloudsdale to me.

[buckyouup]

The buildin's reach the clouds. They ain't built on them, Rainbow.

[bestofthebest]

Yeah, yeah. So, except for blowing yourself up, how's your body working out?

(The only good thing about Rainbow being on her own was that she got to exercise and train.)

[buckyouup]

I can walk, at least. It still feels funny, but I reckon I'm gettin' used to it.

[bestofthebest]

Maybe I can give you a few pointers, help you remember the awesomeness of losing to me~ (She starts jogging in place.)
