-there is also an enormous stack of mushrooms in the corner-
Brie: So we reached out to the Mycelis recently— that's Amanita's family— and we have those now. None of us are sure if they're edible.
Ms. Madrigal: So, Brie tells me you're a Frontier Brain? That's pretty impressive. What's it like?

-Kai rubs the back of their neck sheepishly-
Kai: Oh gosh. Well, uh, it's certainly a job that keeps me thinking and learning, what with so many different trainers with different styles coming in and out. Of course, it does depend a lot on who's coming through and when; if it's a day with a lot of first time challengers, I'm mostly just waiting and watching and planning, but if they're more experienced, then I'm a lot more likely to step up to the battlefield myself. Either way, though, my team and I are still training a lot in between.

Kai: Oh Ho-oh am I oversharing

Here's a video of me messing with a new target thing my dad made for my birthday. -there is a link to a video-
the video
-It is in the stormchaser arena. Danny, in Phantump form is holding up the picture of Paul and Anna Marcaul in front of the camera-
Danny: <All set!>
-Gwen, as a Gourgeist, walks into view, vanishes, then bursts throuh the picture from behind-
Gwen: <As you can see, I've been practicing usin Phantom force. But that's less entertaining.>
-she proceeds to shoot plenty of holes in the picture using bullet seed before blowing it up with seed bomb-
Gwen: <I hope you enjoyed this video of me destroying this picture.>
Danny: <I think it should have been more interesting.>
Gwen: <Well, at least I had fun.>
Danny: <True.>

Eva: So I could get a copy of the star wars holiday special, duh.
Lila: But why would you even want a copy?!
Eva: Because I've watched just about all the other star wars movies and just for the sake of watching it. I was planning to watch it eitheron Halloween or Thanksgiving, because the film was actually released near Thanksgiving and not Christmas.
Lila: And Halloween was the other option because?
Eva: Well, it's so bad you could almost call it a horror movie?

Jean is still at home recovering from food poisoning. He is on the laptop, trying to avoid the judgmental eyes of his wife.
Jocelyn: I know I said it wasn't anything too serious, dear, but do try to at least rest. Just stay in bed and try not to do much.
Jean: Yes, chérie.
Jocelyn: Why did you think it was a good idea to eat that apple sauce in the first place? It was giving off smoke and I'm pretty sure given enough time, it'd have turned into a grimer. I initially thought you somehow ingested the slime trail of an Alolan grimer with your symptoms.
Jean: It... tasted good.
Jocelyn: Promise me that you'll take it easy, okay, chérie.
Jean: Yes, doctor.
Jocelyn: Attaboy. Now, I've to take care of a few things from the hospital.
She looks at a hovering Flygon.
Jocelyn: Leona, watch him like a talonflame.
Leona: <Yes, madame.>
Jocelyn gives her husband a kiss and exits the room. Meanwhile, Jean checks his e-mails.
Jean: Righto. We've got mail.

Subject: RE: Sturgess Shale Exhibit
Hello
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Unovan Museum of Natural History, I regretfully inform the museum and its partners that the plans to loan the Sturgess Shale Fossil exhibit to the National Museum of Natural History has heretofore been suspended indefinitely in light of recent supervillain activity in the city.
Key points that led to our decision include the continued presence of Team Mobius in the region and the recent rash of high-profile jewelry thefts in key areas of Lumiose City by costumed supervillains. There had been other factors that would have swayed us otherwise, including the proposed crackdowns by Interpol and the Gendarme and the presence of the J-Team and superheroes like Vulpecula and Arachna-guy, but the collateral damage caused by the villains in resistance have brought up major concerns.
We were informed by the Illumis Geographe that the last major heist was a sting operation by Interpol and the gendarme and are confident in the eventual capture of the perpetrators. We look forward to seeing this progress.
Although we believe that sharing the fossils and fossil casts to the scholars of Kalos is of great significance to the scientific community, we cannot yet loan these sensitive fossils to the institution until further security developments have been assured. Nonetheless, our contributions to the recent Orange Islands exhibit, which had arrived early last month and had remained safe, will remain in the museum's hands throughout the duration of the exhibit.
In addition, we have not ruled out the possibility of sharing a public exhibit, even if the fossils themselves will not be sent at the previously described time. We are currently discussing the potential of sharing cast replicas of the most important specimens from the Sturgess Shales.

Director of Paleontology

Yonut, Lumiose City, Kalos past
Dave, mentally: <Actually, it was my boss who never had Happy Meal toys. Major mommy issues from her genetic template who never got her one for some stupid joyless reason. If you want tragic backstories though.>
PC, telepathically: <Oh, no, not again.>
Castelia City, Unova, Timey wimey ball (i.e. Dave's past, which hasn't actually happened yet)
A white scene plays out. Only voices can be heard. One is a robotic reverberating voice that seemed mechanical. The other, a strangely familiar one. The low whirring noise associated with Dave's artificial heart can be heard.
Young Dave: Dad, what happened to me? Why can't I see anything. Why does my arm feel funny? What happened to my voice?
Young Dave touches his chest and was appalled by what he felt.
Young Dave: Where's my heart? Dad, what happened to my heart?
Sobbing can be heard.
Shutter: The disease took out many of your body parts. This was the only way. We thought we would lose you forever. You will be able to see again, I promise.
Castelia City, Unova, Timey wimey ball, a year later
A saddened Dave (now with gray eyes) stares at his magnemite, Darlene. The humming of his mechanical heart can still be heard. Listeners can hear the sound of other young children searching for "that robot boy" and making snide mentions of taking him apart and selling his prosthetics for scrap.
Bully: There you are, you little clanker. See guys, all we needed to do was follow that buzzing sound. Wonder how much we can get for those metal arms?
Dave, panicked and a bit enraged: Darlene, thunder shock!
The magnemite releases a powerful electric shock that narrowly misses the bullies. His assailants eventually get knocked over by the gusts of a mega pidgeot.
Castelia City, Unova, several years after that
A teenaged Dave nurses a black eye that fires sparks. His metal arms seem a bit dented. His parents are in the room, as well as a pidgeot, Scout. He pets Scout and sits down with his parents. Shutter is silently livid, while his mother seems more concerned.
Shutter: David Riley Albright. Why am I not surprised?
Mrs. Albright: Got into another fight again, Davey?
Dave, regular-person sounding voice: I don't want to talk about it.
Shutter: Then we've nothing to discuss. Go to your room.
Dave, voice cracking to the point of sounding artificial: I saw someone get mugged, beat up the muggers, then called the cops.
Shutter: Cool motive. You're still grounded. You can't keep putting the law in your own hands like when you had Darlene nearly electrocute those kids.
Dave, robotic voice: They were going to sell me to a scrap yard! Are you ever going to let that go?
Shutter: Listen, sport, I get upset whenever bad people do bad things, but I draw the line at using the levels of excess force you default to.
Dormitory, Phenac City, Orre, A few years before Dave's current present
A 19-year-old Dave, having just come out of the shower, concludes a phone call. Anyone watching this flashback will learn that Dave's prosthetics are waterproof and that he has an artificial lower right leg.
Dave: Yeah, will call you later Uncle Andy. Bye.
He is flabbergasted when he sees a beheeyem in his apartment and lets out a scream.
Beheeyem, telepathically: <Hey roomie, been workin' out?>
Dave: What are you doing here? Jonathan, why is he in here?
A rotomdex floats in. Dave reaches for a Phenac City University hoodie and wears it.
Beheeyem: <You really should consider less baggy clothes.>
Dave, in his boxers, attempting to wearing sweat pants: I like looking normal.
Beheeyem: <Oh, cybernetic enhancements aren't normal for Earthenoids yet?>
Dave: Dude, you do not want to go there. Get out.
Beheeyem: <Whatever happened to Orange Island hospitality?>
Jonathan: Pokéball to your right. You're welcome.
Dave: Indeed. Joycon.
A joltik drops onto the Beheeyem's head.
Beheeyem: <Oh quiznak.>
Dave: Thunderbolt.
A shock is heard. Dave lightly tosses the pokéball, which promptly gives out a satisfying sound.
Beheeyem: <Okay, so now that you caught me, I guess this means I'm staying for good. But if you taaake meee!!! where eveerrrr you gooo!!!>
Yonut, Past
Dave, mentally: <And he still sings that stupid song to this day. Tragic enough for you?>
PC: <Bobby Caldwell is a planetary treasure!>

-Pent kinda starts trying to sneak further into the base, looking for things that if not his belongings than at least something he can use during the raid itself-
It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.
<Sorry about this,> Tae says, his cheeks swell and he spits a massive torrent.
-H.... Ki... o... ere...- Something calls out to Pent.
-I... eep... G... me...- It's the Pen, trying to make contact.
-Thi... ay...- It calls, trying to summon Pentigan closer.
"We did it! We're safe!" One of the Grunts shouts, the team starts high fiving all around, "We got the door down!"
"Now all we need to do is get rid of the Key Card and everything is good! They'll spend hours trying to fin-"
Suddenly over their radios burst, "The Doom Slayer has entered the building!"
The Grunts all started to laugh, that had to be Jerry, crazy old Jerry had spent too many hours playing video games, what were the chances that a huge man in green armor would walk through that do-
KSHUNK
They all stared as in walked a 6'5" man, wearing green armor with a familiar olive green helmet, he marched with purpose, over to Dewy, who still had the red key card around his neck. The Grunts all froze up in a panic and some backed away from Dewey.
"How is this happening?! Why me?! Have we been screwing with reality too much that we outright summoned the Doom Slayer?!"
Dewey tried not to breath as the man in green looked over at the large sealed door, the keypad, and the red card. He gripped onto it, dragging poor Dewey with him, swiped the card, and walked on, a Blue bisharp and a Metagross walking with him.
Dewey finally breathed, "We need a vacation."
As Arthur walked along he looked over at his mons, "The hell was that about?"
Cayde shrugged.
