019 Things Acquired [video; ACTION for Goldenrod]

[ossifragant]

[Greed looks... significantly more upbeat than he did the last time he showed up on camera.

A little too upbeat, actually. Especially for him.]

I've been here for nearly two years, and I just have to say, these have been the greatest two years of my life.

I'll never forget that shark hurricane during the July I showed up here!

That needs to happen again, who else agrees?!

[Apparently we're going to be very excited over something that nearly destroyed the coastline of Johto today.]

A shark...hurricane? Dude, this I gotta hear.

[What????]

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Yeah! It was a hurricane made out of sharks!

Appeared out of nowhere and caused them to go flying through the air, all up against the coastline.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

One: Okay, that sounds impressive as hell. Two: Did any of the sharks survive?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Course! They all survived, as far as I know. Some might have ended up with headaches from ramming into buildings and such, but Pokemon are hardy creature.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Okay, then did any of the buildings survive?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

There was some minor damage, but it got fixed up after a few weeks.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Well, if no one got hurt and nothing collapsed, I guess it does sound like a fun time. There a petition going 'round, where should I sign?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Can't say it's an official petition, but we can always make one here.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Who would we address it to, though? There a Bureau of Freak Weather with an open suggestion box we can get to?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Well, there is a god of sorts here-- it's a llama-looking Pokemon that has this thing around its middle like it got stuck in a fence.

I guess we could ask it nicely for another hurricane.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

[This must be the first time York's heard of the god llama, from the way his expression just stays blank for a moment as he processes the information. In the end, he laughs.]

Gotta say, asking llamas to control the weather's a new one for me. Do llama gods have mailing addresses?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Not that I know of. I'm not even sure it's around most of the time, actually. I haven't seen it around in ages.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Well, guess that's true to form, it supposedly being a god and all. Folks don't tend to see much of those where I'm from.

[Video]

[ossifragant]

It was pretty friendly when I last met it, I wonder where it hides the rest of the time? I'm not even sure what it does, to tell you the truth!

Strange llama-god things, I assume.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

My knowledge of llamas pretty much just comprises the fact that they exist. And maybe come from South America. Hey, maybe it goes south for the winter.

[Video]

[ossifragant]

[What's South America]

Maybe. I know there's a number of other regions out there; I've spoken to people about them before.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Huh. Wonder why we can't travel to 'em, then. We're limited to Johto and Kanto, right?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Yeah, that's right. I'm not sure I get it myself, but that's all we can visit.

After that shark hurricane, in December, we all rode in helly-copters to a place in Kalos, but that's the only other region I've ever visited.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Helicopters? Man, why can't we get helicopters? With all the people with Meowths around here, someone's got to be able to afford one.

[Video]

[ossifragant]

Dunno. You'd think they'd be affordable considering how long some people have been here.

Maybe they don't want us to have helicopters.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

I'd settle for a jeep. Hell, I'd settle for a scooter.

...Okay, I wouldn't settle for a scooter. Maybe a motorbike. Or a Mongoose.

[Video]

[ossifragant]

....There's a giant metal crab, you could ride one of those.

[Greed.]

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Maybe. Is it faster than a Sawsbuck?

[Video]

[ossifragant]

You know, I'm not really sure. I don't have one myself; a friend who isn't here anymore did.

It's called Metagross. They look pretty cool, for giant mutant crab monsters.

[Video]

[ratherbelocky]

Hang on.

[York takes a moment to look that up.]

...Okay, whether or not it's a superior ride, I think I gotta get one of those anyway.
