13 days till Halloween [video]

[quickattackjack]

[ Who's that? It's Jack in a Poke'Mart work vest with an Edgar on his shoulder! After blowing of some steam during his I WANNA BE THE VERY BEST  SCARIEST TRAINER EVER training run, a grin has returned to the older man's face. It's his lunch break.]

Hey, everyone! Check this out!

[Jack points the 'Gear at an enormous slingshot he's made situated between two thin trees out behind the Mart where he's been breaking down boxes. Between them, he's stretched a sort of net made of things the supplies came packaged in.]

I've found a way to help my flying Pokemon get up to speed. Ready, Edgar?

[ "Krow!" Edgar is looking bigger these days and a little less ADD. She flaps her wings and looks determined.]

Alright, I just load a little Pokemon food in here, like so. [He drops a few pellets into one half of a broken Poke'ball and starts pulling back on it.] Aim for something that is not a window and--- GO!

[The pellets are launched high into the air and Edgar dashes after them. Bullying random Ratatta has made her fast. She manages to catch one of the three pellets in her beak before it hits the ground.]

Ahahaha, good girl, Edgar! I hope this catches on!

Those boxes... [heart quietly breaks sob-- OH THAT WAS PRETTY COOL.]


Hnn, not bad. Looks like you found something to pass on to the next generation. [it made sense to him.] Jack, you leaving Violet City any time soon?

[Jack beams, thrilled at having Snake approve some hair-brained thing he's done.]

I hope it's a good idea! Or that someone hasn't already thought of it... No time soon. I've got a job right now and I don't think my Pokemon are strong enough to beat this Falkner guy. He sounds tough.

[video]

[imthe-shit.livejournal.com]

I haven't beat him yet, I just kept going. Besides, I need to talk to somebody and they're not in Violet anymore.

When I come back to Violet, then I'll beat this Falkner guy.


[ Tilts his head. ] A job, hnn... I'm just getting money from Fishermen and kids that I beat.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

I wonder if people are allowed to watch the battles. I'd like to see how he fights.

_{[Here, Jack looks a little sheepy. Though he's been fighting the wild pokemon around Violet, he hasn't been facing many trainers at all.]} I've seen a few people fishing, but I never thought of asking them to battle. They looked busy.

--! Hey, that's a good idea!

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Thanks, Kay! How'v you been?

[video]

[yattagarasu.livejournal.com]

Great! The weather's finally gotten better, so everyone's in a brighter mood!

[video]

[quickattackjack]

I hear that! It's not quite as sunny where I'm from. It's nice here. I could do without fog until...forever.

_{Except for on Halloween, that'd be okay.}

[shellderkillder.livejournal.com]

Oh, are you aiming to improve your Pokémon's speed?

[voice]

[quickattackjack]

Yup! Accuracy too.

[voice]

[shellderkillder.livejournal.com]

I applaud you for your resourcefulness.

[video]

[puzzling]

That is a rather good idea, sir. Perhaps I should train my own bird Pokemon like this. Thank you.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Tell me if it works for you! If you can find some better things to build the launcher out of, let me know.

[video]

[puzzling]

I will do, sir, though I am curious as to how you obtained a broken Pokeball like that. Did you pull it apart yourself?

[video]

[quickattackjack]

[Jack turns the 'Gear to point at the back of the Poke'Mart.]

I work here and a couple were damaged in the boxes. You'd think for things people hold giant Pokemon in, they'd be sturdier!

[video]

[catbitesgirl.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's very clever, Jack-san. Archie-kun and I should try it some time. [The Hoothoot at her side puffs up his chest and nods. No sweat for a talented bird like him!]

[video]

[quickattackjack]

Thanks! If you do try it, I'd like to hear if it works out! I wonder if it could teach younger Pokemon how to fly...

[video]

[catbitesgirl.livejournal.com]

Mm, I'll let you know. ...That might be a bit dangerous, though...

[video]

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

[...Hm, well that's interesting. Interesting enough to catch Riku's attention.]

Huh, I hadn't thought of training like that.

[video]

[quickattackjack]

I got the idea watching Edgar chase reflections from the pond.

Do you have any flying Pokemon?

[video]

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

I do, actually.

[He pulls out a Pokéball, calling out his Pidgeot, who promptly spreads his wings and lets out a loud chirp.]

Re: [video]

[quickattackjack]

_{[Jack hasn't met a Pidgeot before. His brows spring up when the bird pokemon appears.]}

THAT is a big bird!

_{[He looks to his much smaller Edgar who is waiting for him to launch more treats.]}

[video]

[totesaladder.livejournal.com]

Woooow! Look at him go!

[video]

[quickattackjack]

If I'm right and we keep training this way, Edgar might get even faster!

[video]

[totesaladder.livejournal.com]

If he gets even faster, you might be able to take on the gym leader challenge.
