-002- [Text] [Action for Violet City]

[me_first]

while we're all getting ready for this storm - very curious this sort of thing, not something i've dealt with before. not something that happened in cloudbank. would have caused many problems though fixing them would have been simple i suppose!

in any case, yes! the subject of this post!

from what i have seen and heard many people give their pokemon names. i suppose it makes sense! but i cannot decide on names for mine. nothing seems to fit! i have not named many sentient creatures before. the ones i have i have been told my names are not very creative.

['Jerk' is a totally valid name for a creature, okay.]

i am a programmer and engineer by trade but i do not think those terms are very fitting for my pokemon.

[Red took all of the function names already. He's tempted to name the cat 'Asher' even if the cat is female.]

i have:
- magnemite (neuter)
- sentret (male)
- purrloin (female)
- dratini (female)
- skarmony (female)
- gastly (female)
- bronzor (neuter)

i did not realize how many female pokemon i have until just now. oh well nothing to be done about it nothing at all. i would prefer if they follow some sort of consistent naming theme but if one seems fitting i suppose it can be an anomaly.

[And if anyone wants to speak to the nerd, he's sitting in the Pokemon Center in Violet City with a Magnemite orbiting around him and a Dratini clinging to his leg.]

ampere it is then! as for sentret... i don't honestly know. he's rather fond of standing on my head...

Mine did that too! Until she got too big, anyway. Lemme think...

You said most of your Pokemon are pretty calm, right? Is there anything else that might set your Sentret apart from the others?

[me_first]

he runs in and flushes out pokemon from the tall grass a lot. he enjoys sleeping near me too - or at least close enough to get his tail in my mouth.

[rarestcandy]

flamethrowers even? cuz that's pretty impressive.

[me_first]

i've never tried. though i suppose it would be harder here without the functions i grew used to using.

[captainash]

Some Pokémon are like that, sadly. But at least they're a step up from Pokémon that just like to harm you.

[rarestcandy]

oh yeah? this place knocked out some ability from you too, huh?

[She didn't mind her own "ability" going bye-bye, but she felt sorry for Ralph's no-longer-inhuman strength.]

[me_first]

she's been mostly harmless. a few instances of making me trip, but that's not quite so bad.

[me_first]

it took an item from me that allowed me different functions, yes.

[Though it's likely he wouldn't have had it anyway after the fight.]

[rarestcandy]

lame

maybe you'll get it back sometime. i got my goggles back once but they're gone now because i left for a while i guess

but it probably wouldn't let you do crazy stuff with it anymore anyway.

[me_first]

no. likely not. this world can't be modified in the same way.

[rarestcandy]

well

i mean acourse i don't know exactly what you're talking about

but sometimes we have these days where everything goes nutso? and people can turn into fluffy dragon cat things and go into the network and punch buildings to bits.

but everyone says those days are weird glitches, basically

so

Sounds like he's really helpful, then! Well maybe you could go off of something like that...like I named my Manectric "Leader" cause he's kindof like...the leader of my team, you know?

[me_first]

... what? how is that even possible?

[text]

[me_first]

it sounds a bit childish but... perhaps 'scout'?

[rarestcandy]

idk man i'm just a little girl

patching up the code or something maybe?

anyway you'll know when it happens and there's a HUUUGE flash of light too for extra advertising

[me_first]

i'll keep that in mind.

[Maybe this place is more malleable than he thought...]

do you know anyone who might have more information on that sort of thing?

[rarestcandy]

nah not really.

some guys have been here for ages, but i don't know any of them, i don't think.

i usually just keep to myself or stay by ralph, on those days.

[me_first]

friend of yours?

[rarestcandy]

mhmmmmm and he's the one who can punch buildings to bits

nicely of course

i mean, it's his job, he's not doing it to be mean, or anything.

[Childish, are you kidding? This is Jimmy you're talking to.]

Aw, I think that's a perfect name!

[me_first]

is he in some sort of construction business?

[rarestcandy]

kinda but he's the demolition part

[text]

[me_first]

[But he is a grown man, Jimmy.]

then scout it is! purrloin... gets on my hands a lot while i'm working.

[me_first]

i imagine that's needed in most worlds.
