quickattackjack | 3 days till Halloween [video/ action for those near Cherrygrove]

[CLOVERFEILD SHAKY-CAM, AWRIGHT! The Poke'Gear is pointed at the tiny town of Cherrygrove which, right now, looks like a bunch of legos in the distance. It's the middle of the day. The feed is very wobbly because Jack is stumbling. Like a huge doofus, he did not sleep last night and traveled the whole time. He hasn't stopped to eat, catch Pokemon, or even battle very much. Now he's starting to pay for it. Jack is still a newbie to this whole 'human limits' thing.]

Look, Edgar!

[He stops walking and wheezes. The Murkrow hops into the frame and looks back at her trainer, worried. "Krowh?" ]

I told you plowing right on through would work! We've saved a whole half-a-day! I want to thank everyone again for being so helpful. And think--just another week and we can look at that tower...Edgar! Look! It's a Whoot-Whoot like Zack told us about! What's it doing out in the middle of the day? Let's catch it!

[Edgar looks back at a stump with some charred bits on it that MIGHT have looked like a Hoot Hoot's strange ear tufts. What.]

Edgar, use Peck!

[When Edgar doesn't attack the stump, Jack comes to the only logical conclusion.]

It must already be knocked out! This is our lucky day!

[Jack hurls a pokeball at the stump. It bounces off and lands in some bushes. Sleep deprivation and stress are fun!]
