13th Piece // Goldenrod City // Video/Action

[On comes the feed, and it is instant noise, instant lights, and instant headache if the audience doesn't adjust fast. And nope, it's not even involving exploding buildings or some rescue sight. The view's coming from over someone's shoulder, and there's a bit of an ear and unique hair cut hinting the breeder nearby, but most of the screen is filled with a colorful roulette wheel, flashing more colorful overload before finally slowing down-

And drawing a happy cry from the fellow jolting in the camera view!]

Hey, I was right, Senzai! Waiting for the wheel to fill up with balls helped our chances! Sure, the bet wasn't as high, but still-

[He cuts off as he turns and comes eye-to-eye with the gear's lens, blinking in it before the entire scene shifts to a more comfortable distance, and Yuugi gives a "eh-heh!" grin before the screen goes out.

A few seconds later he's on again, this time up against a dark wall with the noise slightly muted, and the view much more steady and including a Togetic hovering to the side.]

Sorry about that- I think Senzai wanted to share what we're up to here. He really likes the games.

[...since he's on the feed anyways...] So... Does anybody have a favorite game, here at the Game Corner?

[Either way, anyone drawn into the Game Corner will find Yuugi playing away- Even if he does eventually abandon his lucky streak at the roulette whee and retuns to Voltorb Flip. But by then there's some very obvious glances coming from the staff that Yuugi is very unaware of.]

-a pokemon who likes computers and jokes? Surprised I haven't come across him

I didn't know pokemon could be made, though

I didn't, either, but the Dex claims his species is artificially created. I did hatch him from an egg, though, so it's evidently more complicated than it seems.

And I can think of one way to fix that. Would you like to talk to him?

if they can hatch a ghost

Sure! I'd like that.

[Since he's thinking something like how his Lucario speaks to him.

Whoops.]

[Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it — HELLO.]

HOLA
BONJOUR
GUTEN TAG
ALOHA
ZDRAVSTVUYTE
H E L L O

HELLO HELLO HELLO

[...

Where are his language skills when he needs them?!

But he has enough to recognize an English "hello", and thus the rest. And that a Pokemon is texting him.

Hello indeed. Please stand by as Yuugi fathoms a response.]

Hi

Did you catch our talk about you?

Edited 2012-07-23 03:30 (UTC)

YES
HELLO

CARMEN SAYS
YOU WOULD LIKE TO MEET A PORYGON

HERE I AM !!!

BEEP BOP BOOP

so you are!

Is this how you talk to your trainer, too?

Edited 2012-07-23 03:50 (UTC)

YES

I TELL THE GEAR WHAT TO SAY
AND THEN IT SAYS IT

no wonder Carmen think you can make a game

do you like them too?

I MAKE LOTS OF THINGS !!!

BEEP BOP BOOP

IT'S EASY

UM UM UM
I LIKE
M I N E S W E E P E R

BUT IT'S TOO EASY

I guess it would be!

How about two player games?

LIKE
P I C T I O N A R Y ???

WE PLAY THAT A LOT

OH OH OH AND
TRIVIAL PURSUIT

I LEARN LOTS OF THINGS THAT WAY !!!

You can draw on the gear?

But- I don't think I've play that trivia game before.

YES
ON THE SCREEN

DO YOU WANT TO PLAY TRIVIAL PURSUIT RIGHT NOW ???

THERE IS LOTS OF TRIVIA
IN THE DEX

[-so this is why he needs to memorize all that stuff! ~~so why has he not looked it over recently?~~]

If you want.

Let's give it a try!

OKAY !!!
THESE ARE THE RULES

YOU ASK ME QUESTIONS ABOUT THINGS
THAT ARE NOT IN THE DEX
ON MY TURN

I ASK YOU QUESTIONS ABOUT THINGS
THAT ARE IN THE DEX
ON YOUR TURN

THAT IS HOW CARMEN AND I PLAY

okay

Do you want me to stick to facts here in Johto?

YOU CAN ASK ME ANYTHING !!

BECAUSE
THAT IS HOW I WILL LEARN NEW THINGS

:)

in that case

[A ~~MILLION HOURS~~ few seconds later- Let's start with a simple one.]

How many face cards are in a regular deck of cards?

FIFTY-TWO CARDS IN A DECK
HEARTS SPADES DIAMONDS CLUBS
FOUR SUITS

KING QUEEN JACK
JACK JACK JACK
THREE FACES PER SUIT

FOUR TIMES THREE IS TWELVE

UNLESS YOU COUNT ACES
BUT ACES HAVE NO FACES
AND THE JOKER HAS ONE TOO

BUT I THINK IT IS
T W E L V E

Good choice!

Aces and Jokers have faces in some decks, but not all the time. So twelve is right.

One point?

YES !!!

ZACK: 1
YUUGI: 0

NOW HERE IS YOUR QUESTION

WHICH POKEMON
WEIGHS 1014.1 POUNDS ???

THAT IS VERY HEAVY !!!

[-there is one that big?! He doesn't even know how pounds translate, but still... And that leads to his problem. He's never paid much attention to weights, and even trying to pull up visuals of different PokeDex entries from memory doesn't help.

But, what's the biggest, heaviest booming thing he's ever seen on any feed, in any team, or at the Breeding Centre...

...he'd only swear to it being the laziest, but here goes.]

I'll go with Snorlax.

Edited 2012-08-04 04:46 (UTC)

YES !!!
S N O R L A X
IS VERY HEAVY

ZACK: 1
YUUGI: 1

GOOD JOB YUUGI !

Thanks Zack!

[But, now what? He has an idea of how much Zack can do with foreknowledge now, so what's a fair question without making it too easy...

He'd put money on she has, but has Carmen explained the background of chess yet?]

Why do we say check mate when we win chess?
