[The screen flickers on to show a boy who looks like he’s a little bit in a fog. Behind him, a Buizel bounces around happily through the snowdrifts, nearly disappearing only to poke her head up every now and then, her whiskers and fur caked with snow.]

Hello? Is anyone out there? My name is Shaun Mars. There was this lady who called herself my mom, and she gave me a backpack full of food and clothes and stuff, and I sorta...just wanted to know if that had happened to anyone else. And also, if the food was...safe to eat. It’s like rice, and I think there’s fish and vegetables and stuff too, or something.

I think I might've gotten someone else's Pokegear thing. It says it's my birthday today, but my birthday was two days ago.

Ooh, America! I've heard of it, but I've never been there before! I like cafeteria food, but I wish it'd start selling udon...

Did you know about Pokemon before coming here?

What's...udon?

Yeah, I did. My brother and I had the games. ...I haven't seen hardly any kinds I recognize here, though.

You don't know what udon is?! [SHOCK OF ALL SHOCKS] It's the best food ever! It's my favorite! They're thick noodles made of everything good in the world in a broth of magic unicorn tears!

...Okay maybe not like that, but they're thick noodles and really delicious! I eat them a lot! Maybe you can find some around here, or I could make some for you sometime, if you want!

I knew we were in some kind of game! I don't think we have this sort of game where I'm from though.

[...Noodles in soup, huh. It doesn't sound too bad. It doesn't sound like anything special, either, but.]

Sure! Maybe if we're in the same town we can try to find some together, that way you can tell me if it's any good.

I dunno if we're actually in someone's game right now... Cause there's only supposed to be one main character who's trying to become a Pokemon Master.

...Can you even become a Pokemon Master here?

[It's really kind of plain, but Hiyoko loves them...]

Okay! I'll make you an udon-lover yet!

[Gosh she was so right. She loves it when she's dead on! It doesn't happen often]

I don't see why not! You can be the very best, like no one ever was! Achieve your dreams, and all that stuff!

[Considering this bento is his first experience with Japanese food, just make it a good first impression and he'll be hooked.

He smiles.]

We'll see!

Is that what you're going to do?
