Mr. Snow Villiers?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[Snow looks to the voice, looking slightly confused but grinning regardless.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yep, that's me. Someone need a hero?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="pink"&gt;These just arrived for you. Here you go! ... We hope to see you again soon!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...Poke-balls? Huh....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;small&gt;[The feed turns off for a minute, and when it turns back on, Snow seems absolutely delighted. You can spot a very muscular grey thing in the background, barely.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, uh... Machamp's back. Rocky, too, and that Gyarados thing. Lucky me, I sure needed something 20 feet tall that wants me dead, and look what I've got. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thundara's still missing, though. I... wonder if she disappeared with her aunt Kay?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But hey, Light: Now we're making double-time. I'll be there. &lt;small&gt;[Wink, and the camera turns off.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[&lt;b&gt;ACTION&lt;/b&gt; available for any in the Cherrygrove Pokemon Center, feel free to just wander in and say hi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's holding two Poke-balls, and has two empty ones clipped to his waist. Machamp (yes, his starter from the &lt;i&gt;first&lt;/i&gt; time around) is nearby, stretching and even throwing a few punches. You have &lt;i&gt;no idea&lt;/i&gt; what six months in a poke-ball feels like. Sir Munchalot is watching Machamp, wide-eyed and chewing in an awestruck fashion on the remains of a magazine.]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

All-in-all, he's pretty chill. He has two and a half days to hit Violet or Lightning's going to &lt;i&gt;kill&lt;/i&gt; him, but hey, it could definitely be worse. After all, his beautiful bride-to-be is waiting for him less than a week away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sir Munchalot, meanwhile, is running around the Pokemon Center and peering at/fiddling with everything short enough for her to reach. The Munchlax is somehow still a ceaseless fountain of energy, despite exactly how much battling they'd done on the way. Snow and Pascal both--he's a little proud of her determination, Pascal's that is. Be careful, though: Sir Munchalot eats anything that fits in her mouth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for Snow, h doesn't look upset, just a little tired and a little thoughtful, so PEOPLE SHOULD COME SAY HI. He needs more buddies, anyway.]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

Haven't seen &lt;i&gt;you&lt;/i&gt; before. What's your name, bud?", to which the Pokemon replies, "Munchlax!") as it immediately begins to scurry around and identify every item in sight. And then dig through Snow's bag. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He doesn't mind though, since he was digging through it anyway. He's looking for something, but he can't seem to find it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NEW FOLKS, COME SAY HI. Question the sanity of the Munchlax.

It's already rolling. He only pauses for a moment at this realization, though, before a grin spreads on his face.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trucy?

No, no explanation whatsoever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOWEVER, if you're in Azalea? He's standing right smack dab in the middle of town. He appears to take a deep breath, then leans forward slightly and exhales a &lt;i&gt;jet of fire&lt;/i&gt;. Guess who's been training with the Firebreathers in Union Cave for the last, like... three weeks. Shame is, he can probably only do that once more for the day, and he's saving it for Trucy the Ace Magician. He's not nearly as good as the professionals, but it's a start.]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

This looks like it has 'big fight' written all over it, according to Thundara, and her trainer's a Big Hero, so OF COURSE SHE'S SUPPOSED TO MAKE SURE IT BROADCASTS. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You smell the fail already, don't you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Especially because he's facing off against two angry Bulbasaur (AKA GRASS TYPE, and close to level 20), and of the water, stone, and electric Pokemon, the electric one's got the camera. Isn't it &lt;i&gt;totally awesome&lt;/i&gt; that Snow hasn't learned hardly anything about type weaknesses yet? ...Yeah, this is gonna be beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So yeah, you've got an Onix and a Gyarados facing off against two little bitty dinosaurs with wtf growths. 'What could go wrong?' says Snow.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rocky, hit 'em with Rock Tomb! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[You hear a rumble and an alarmed 'Bulba!' or two as the attack takes effect, but when the dust quickly clears, both opponents seem very much intact.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What the-...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="green"&gt;Bulba... &lt;i&gt;saur&lt;/i&gt;!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[Many, many sharp leaves slice toward poor Rocky, who lets out a roar. Somehow, his stone self is very much affected by this moderately weak-looking onslaught.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;C'mon, buddy! They're just &lt;i&gt;leaves&lt;/i&gt;! &lt;small&gt;[But hey, if Rocky's hurting, he's hurting.]&lt;/small&gt; Back off, Rocky. Bob, Bite 'em!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[The Gyarados lets out a deep '&lt;font color="blue"&gt;GYARAAAA!&lt;/font&gt;' of a roar, and he tosses his head, then turns his glare on Snow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Snow's eyes widen a little.]&lt;/small&gt; What, you're not gonna fight?! &lt;small&gt;[He spreads his arms out to the sides now.]&lt;/small&gt; C'mon! We'll work this out, man, but &lt;i&gt;here is not the place&lt;/i&gt;- &lt;small&gt;[And past the Gyarados, you see one of their matching opponents leap forward a step or two, a pair of vines snaking out from around its bulb to lash viciously at the stubborn Gyarados. He roars in a pained fashion, much like Rocky did, and &lt;i&gt;now&lt;/i&gt; he uses Bite, but most definitely of his own accord. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because even when the move's done, he &lt;i&gt;doesn't stop Biting&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Snow jogs forward a few steps, looking worried.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hey, knock it off. You're gonna hurt it for &lt;i&gt;real&lt;/i&gt; if you keep-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="green"&gt;BULBAAAA!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[At that moment, the free Bulbasaur leaps forward and starts lashing at the water dragon with its own vines. But actually, it was the &lt;i&gt;bitten&lt;/i&gt; Bulbasaur that made the cry... As it released Poison Powder straight down the Gyarados's throat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Gyarados recoils with an almost horrified '&lt;font color="blue"&gt;D-DOS!?&lt;/font&gt;', and it was shaking its head savagely, like somehow that could expel the poison ejected down his throat. And Snow's done messing around, closing the rest of the distance between himself and the Gyarados.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hey, calm down! I've got that Antidote stuff, just don't--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[And the wildly flailing Gyarados rams the side of his head straight into the oncoming Snow, sending him flying back like six or seven feet and onto his ass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From behind Snow, there's a pained '&lt;b&gt;Oniiiix!&lt;/b&gt;' He shoots a glance over his shoulder, and the unbitten Bulbasaur's now Vine Whipping the already weakened Rocky.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rocky, use--! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[Oh, but he can't even finish that sentence, seeing how weak Rocky already is. The massive rock snake's got his head tilted away from the onslaught in almost a Defense Curl-ish fashion, and the rest of him's drooping pretty bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Snow's brow furrows as his gaze darts from Rocky to the still-flailing Gyarados, and his hand runs over the back of his head to clutch at the hair at the back of his neck, utterly at loss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a few seconds of having absolutely &lt;i&gt;no idea what to do&lt;/i&gt;? He's hauling himself onto his feet, hastily checking all pockets for a Pokeball. Siezing it, he's throwing it, and Machamp is appearing, surveying the scene he's released into with alarm.]&lt;/small&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Machamp, save our ass here. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[And for once, he actually sounds almost defeated. He's still kinda in shock at how fast things blew up--and not even from a &lt;i&gt;trainer&lt;/i&gt; battle! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then his gaze finally falls on the camera.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thundara, what are you--? &lt;i&gt;Turn that off&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[And the feed cuts out.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name='cutid1-end'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[The feed clicks back on after quite a while. It's Snow, or his forehead at least. He's sitting on a couch at the Pokemon Center, leaned forward so one elbow's resting on one of his knees (that's the hand that's holding the PokeGear out). The other hand's covering half of his face, more to rest his head and close his eyes for a minute than to express facepalm-esque feelings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then he's looking up at the camera, though he's not really lifting his head too far.]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They're smart and all, but when it comes down to it... They're all just animals, right?</content>

Thundara sits in front of the trio, facing them. The Mareep's content to watch then, first one, then another. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But she's young and easily bored by this zen mood, so when crawling onto Machamp's lap yields absolutely no response, she wraps her little mouth around the edge of the PokeGear, dragging it out a few feet and dropping it halfway on it's side. She'll be buttonmashing a little, trying to figure how to make her Aunt Kay appear on the flat part. Feel free to assume the Gear turns on and you bear witness to the aforementioned mashing of buttons, and quite possibly the zen scene behind her.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[ooc: Action preferred, since it's been a while since I've done an action post, but feel totally free to voice/video it too.]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

Unfortunately, the flood had wound up being too much for Rocky, and he'd retreated to his PokeBall... Thankfully, they hadn't been on a rescue mission at the time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He winds up in the Pokemon Center. The second he's inside and not chest-deep in water, he'll be dropping to his knees and rolling onto his back, palms coming up to press against his forehead as he tries to catch his breath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's not hurt or dying or anything. These are the classic symptoms of someone who's just... very thoroughly exhausted. Looks like the hero bit off just a bit more than he preferred to chew.]&lt;/small&gt;</content>

Wet grass or no, this dude needs a &lt;i&gt;break&lt;/i&gt;.

Two things are quite obvious:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) He's going the wrong way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) He's got a pretty dang efficient mode of transport: He's Onyx-back riding, and Rocky seems thrilled to be out and doing something useful. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't worry, they'll stop for sure if you look like you want to talk. Or you can just catch them on one of their breaks, at which point they'll be sitting against a tree eating various snacks.]&lt;/small&gt;</content>
