[When the feed begins, the image is a bit blurry and shaky as the Igglybuff holding it can barely stand still, it's just too heavy. It's pretty amazing that she hasn't dropped it yet, actually. The image may be far from perfect but there's definitely nothing wrong with audio:]

Open the door! It's so unfair!! And you're calling yourself a mother?!

[Is she's going to hold a grudge on this "mom" person for not letting her eat breakfast? Yes.

Then, Igglybuff cries out, trying to get the yelling girl's attention, but with no luck. However, the Pokémon finally finds a way to steady the image a little by putting the Pokégear on the ground, while she holds its both sides. The image finally becomes more focused; there's a girl standing in front of the door...and she's about to kick them when Igglybuff squeaks once again, louder this time. Only then she gives Igglybuff her attention.]

Is something wrong? H-Hey, when did you turn that on?

[She leaps forward to cover the camera with both of her hands. What an introduction. After clearing her throat twice, she pulls her hands away and flashes a grin.]

Umm...sorry about that? Anyway! I'm Kaori Miyazono, I've just arrived here...and I'm not sure what to do? All I know is that I'm supposed to go on an adventure!

[It seems like she has already accepted the situation she found herself in...]

- walk around from town to town
- train your Pokémon to protect you from wild Pokémon attacking you
- participate in something like institutionalized dogfighting, for prizes and glory
- make Pokémon babies

That's about the gist of what I've gotten for the usual options so far.

[ That's

one way to look at the world of Pokémon... ]

- okay, why not
- what if I can protect myself just fine?
- that's SICK
- w h a t

Seriously, what. What were you doing to those poor Pokémon...

[No one can say it's not accurate, though...]

- it's actually pretty scenic so it's not bad
- they breathe fire and stuff
- Look, I didn't make the rules, I think that's kinda fucked up too? Idk.
- idk people breed them and I've tried to not think about it very hard

And I haven't done anything! Quilava is the best fuckin pampered Quilava in all of this place, I absolutely guarantee it.

[ Except how it doesn't have a name...... ]

- this town looks rather normal, though? where are those scenic places?
- yeah right...now tell me that some can electrocute you, like I'm going to believe that...
- ok, ok...I'll probably have to fight someone sooner or later, I'll see how that work
- it's better to leave it at that

Is quilava your first pokémon then?? How do you take care of it?

- the trails are pretty nice but I guess I like that kind of thing to begin with? So I might be biased...
- lmao ok, I won't then, don't cry when you get electrocuted by yellow mice

And yeah, he was here when I first woke up here, except he was smaller then. Mostly I just feed him and let him do his own thing and I guess that he likes?? fighting off wild Pokémon, so it all works out great bc he gets fed and I don't get mauled.

- I'm still in the town but I guess I'll get to go soon so I'll see them for myself!
- Like that would ever happen...please...

[Of course it will.]

Mine doesn't look like suited for fighting though?? I bet my punches are stronger than hers...but maybe if I'll keep feeding her...

You know... I thought that about my guy too, but then he started breathing fire so yours will probably be ok.

Also, they get really big really fast. Like, mine doubled in size, I think...

I'd rather not have her breathe fire but that makes me wonder what she can do...?

Doubled?? What have you been feeding it?!

[If Igglybuff decides to sing, the reply might be a bit delayed...]

I think your Gear can tell you if you play around with it for a while

And it's not like I stuffed it or anything!! It just kind of. Changed forms all of a sudden. I think it's called evolution or something, idk, it freaked me the fuck out.

[ THAT'S NOT HOW GROWTH WORKS... ]

Ohhhh it has radio function too, neat! And I've just changed the song!

[Guess who's fine with the music playing in the background everywhere? This girl.]

I guess I don't have to worry about her changing forms for a while, we've just met after all...okay but what happens when they evolve? Explosions?? Fireworks?

There's light and then logic gives you the metaphorical middle finger, and then suddenly your Pokémon buddy is bigger and better at beating up other Pokémon.

It's actually pretty cool if you just ignore common sense for a few minutes, I guess.

[ "I guess it's cool, or something", how... enthusiastic... ]

So...basically it's like growth spurt but more sudden and there's light. Noted.

And you. How long have you been here anyway?

A few weeks ... but I think some people have been here for ages.

[ Where "ages" is approximately "a year or more". So basically forever to the average teenager. ]

I'm pretty sure even after a bunch of time passes, though
It's still gonna be fuckin weird

Hmm...it doesn't sound all that bad, I guess?
Even if it's going to get weirder and weirder...we'll just get used to it?
Not like we have any other choice anyway

[She's certainly underestimating the world of Pokémon...]

I mean yeah. That's true, it's not like we have a choice.
It could be a lot worse, all things considered
This place seems mostly obnoxiously cheerful and not like, actually life threatening

I guess we're lucky, then!
Btw, who are you?

[It's about time.]

[ I-it's not like that's important information or anything...!! ]

Katsuki Bakugou
And who are YOU?

[O-Of course not...!]

Miyazono Kaori
You better remember this name, Katsuki~
