prank #20 | video / action route 34

[The sight greeting you when John's pokegear clicks on today?]



[Yup. That sure is a freshly-hatched Nosepass sitting in the grass in front of John's legs. They have to be John's legs, because who else in Johto wears bright red shoes with flames on them? Seems for once he's filming his own post.]

So that mysterious egg that I asked about a while back finally hatched. I still have no idea where this thing came from, but I am beginning to think that it belonged to someone who is no longer here. But anyway. Yeah it...hatched into a rock. Again. Though I'm pretty sure there isn't going to be a ghost popping out of this one like last time.

Has anyone seen this kind before? It kind of looks like one of those Easter Island heads. And also my dad... Apparently it's like a natural compass or something? The pokedex made it sound pretty nea-- [He cuts off as the Nosepass suddenly starts glowing and making a strange high-pitched whine-like noise. You know, the kind that might be associated with something that's about to blow up.]

Uh...okay, that's weird. Why is it glowing like... [Realization get] Oh fu--

[The feed clicks off as John (presumably) realizes what's about to happen and runs for cover. To anyone on the end of Route 34 near Goldenrod or somewhere near the entrance of said City, you may or may not have just heard a minor explosion. Depends on how far away you are and how good your hearing is.]

((ooc: The egg originally belonged to Clubs Deuce prior to him leaving Johto. It was his Easter egg, hence why it knows Explosion. Yay egg moves. Also, responses will come in a few hours when I get back from visiting my parents))

Are you sure? I heard an explosion!

Positive! And...hehe, yeah that was him. But I'm okay and surprisingly he's okay too. Sorry if it bothered you.

No, it's fine! It's just um...

I wasn't exactly expecting a pokémon to explode like that. I thought that was a trait for the Pineco.

Oh. Well other ones can do it too. Like Geodude, Koffing, and Voltorb. I'm sure there's a much longer list but those are the only ones that I can think of off the top of my head.

... Do you hang around exploding pokémon often?

[video]

[identity profile] usedwindything.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
No, actually this is the only one I have. But I played pokémon as a video game before I ever came here. So there are a few random things that I know. About some of the pokémon, anyway.

You played--- Oh, right, I keep forgetting this is all some sort of weird game in some other world.

Yeah, for some of us. Though the games were a little different than this place. But it's the same basic principle. So it wasn't a game in your universe then?

Not even close. I've never heard of anything like this until I got here.

That must have been quite a shock for you then. How long have you been here?

[video]

[identity profile] souljudgment.livejournal.com 2011-07-06 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
A little over two months, I think. The only one I've seen explode is the Pineco, so it's really odd to me.

That's a pretty decent amount of time. How are you liking it? But yeah until today, Pineco was the only one that I had actually seen explode as well.

It's pretty different, and still taking a bit to get used to it. I don't think I'll ever get used to seeing pokémon explode though.
