Report 12 [Video/ Action for Goldenrod]

[bent_causality]

So.. um, I have a question for everyone. How do you catch something that doesn't want to be caught? I mean, this little guy has been following me for several days now and he runs away every time one of my pokemon come near or he sees a pokeball. And um, We really don't want to be put to sleep or paralyzed anymore.

[Mihoshi  points her camera towards a nearby tree and just barely catches a glimpse of an oddish peeking around the trunk before ducking back behind it. All her other pokemon seemed to be either annoyed or bored with the antics. As for the blonde, she's just confused. After all, its been a few days since they arrived at Goldenrod and the little guy is still following her.]

Oh! We finally made it to Goldenrod! I can't wait to do some shopping!

[Harry has enough trouble figuring out what his OWN Pokemon are thinking, never mind a wild one.]

The fear of Pokeballs says no, but if it's still following you... maybe?

[Doesn't mean he won't bumble through a round of armchair psychologist take a shot at it, though.]

Could try getting it to come closer with food. Like bribing an Ewok with a cookie.

Huh? What's an Ewok? Is that some sort of pokemon?

[She looks confused for a few moments as she tries to think of what he could mean before a lightbulb turns on. A very dim one, but its there.]

Oh! You mean like with Carrots? Maybe that's what it wants, food! I wonder what it eats. I mean, I think its a plant type and um.. what's it called? Oh I was just reading about this!

...So what do you feed a plant type?

[That's... not a bad description of the Ewoks, actually.]

Uh- not a bad question, actually.

[Harry Dresden, master Pokemon trainer.]

Berries , I guess?

I guess that makes sense but wouldn't that be like cannibalism? I mean if its a plant type, then um, does it really eat other plants?

Re: [video]

[used-fireblast.livejournal.com]

[Harry's not sure he's actually seen his grass-type eat at all, now that he thinks of it.]

I wouldn't think so, unless there's some type of berry that grows into a walking blue onion-thing.

Re: [video]

[bent-causality.livejournal.com]

Well I wouldn't know anything about that. But, why don't we stay away from berries? Because he kind of looks like one and I would hate to feed him a relative, you know?

So what about something sweet? Oh! Or what about water? I mean, we're always watering the carrots back home so plants must like water right?

I just don't want the little guy to get hurt! I mean the city is a dangerous place for someone all alone!

Re: [video]

[used-fireblast.livejournal.com]

Most of the Pokemon I've seen have been pretty dangerous too, alone or not.

[Well, his Hoppip doesn't seem too dangerous, but that might just be him. Little guy's pretty laid back.]

Water might not be a bad idea. Maybe, I dunno, sugar water? Honey or something? Hang on-

[Harry rummages in his bag offscreen for a moment, and there's a familiar flash of light from a Pokeball opening. The Hoppip in question appears with Harry.]

Whaddya think Campbell, you guys like sugar-water or something?



...I have no idea what that means.

Re: [video]

[bent-causality.livejournal.com]

I think that was a yes! I'll try and get some sugar water and see of that works I guess.

So um, thanks! OH! Silly me, Um, I'm Mihoshi, thank you for your help!

Re: [video]

You're welcome, I suppose.

[He's not sure he actually managed to do anything here. Months in Johto and the capturing thing and how it affects a Pokemon's mood still confuses the hell out of him.]

Harry Dresden.
