Video/Action for Violet City

[neededlassie]

[It's the middle of the afternoon, and Shaun has something very important to share.]

Guess what! Guess what!

[The camera pans over to a rather proud-looking Floatzel and a Mightyena who's sitting loyally and staring at the Pokegear (really, at the boy holding it) with a curious head tilt, her tail wagging against the ground.]

Susie and Richie evolved! Look how big they are! Isn't that awesome?

[Forgive him, he's still at the self-centered age where he's relatively positive that almost everyone cares about his accomplishments. Or his pokemon's accomplishments, as it were. Also, Mightyena are rumored to only obey experienced trainers, so this kid must be no pushover to have her panting happily and butting her head against his hand when he reaches out from behind the Pokegear to scratch her behind the ear.]

[Cut him a little bit of slack he's still terrified of his Pokemon getting KO'd because knowing his luck the 'no death' rule will be averted just for his Pokemon.]

True...

And I definitely like it more this way.

_{[Awwww kiddo. :(]}

Same.

I feel bad for anyone who goes home and has to go back to playing Pokemon on a piddly little Gameboy.

Must be pale as hell after doing the real thing.

I know, right. And there's so many more different kinds here than there were in the games.

Did you play them too?

Not really.

I was more of an arcade game sort of kid. Dad was no fan of video games so there was nothin' like that in the house.
