ripped | 06 ☣ video/action for vermillion

[Have a shot of Nero's hand, holding the Thunder Badge.]

That was a piece of cake after the hell that voodoo chick in Saffron put me through; finding that damn switch was a worse pain in my ass than breaking into HQ back home, though.

[He turns the camera around. His hair...well, let's just say that the levels of static electricity in the Vermillion gym are quite high, and leave it at that. Dandelion? Got nothin' on this.

Clearly Nero hasn't noticed, because he runs a hand through it, a bit impatient, only making it worse. Behind him, there's a snuffling sound, before a big, lumbering shape--his Druddigon, all teenage-gangliness and overenthusiastic movement--pushes her head affectionately against his side. She reaches up to fix his hair, but he doesn't know it, so he tilts his head away, letting her claw rub like sandpaper over his cheek. His eyes narrow.]

So, uh.

Anyone know how to make a pokemon like you...less?

[Because having a two-hundred-pound fangirl with scales like sandpaper hanging all over you during a gym match when you're trying to teach her how things are done is. Distracting.

Click.]

[private text message to Dante]

You made it to Cherrygrove yet?

[private text message to Miyuki]

Did you see the new breeding center eggs getting announced?

Hell no, I only want the one. Go look, it's called 'Deino'. I just figured you wouldn't want to get let behind too badly.

[Translaton: I'm being nice, there's only two of them, shut up and take the offer.]

o sweet! i like dragons
but u dont have 2 worry so much dad ♥
u couldnt leave me bhind if u tried
guess whos gonna have all 8 johto badges 2mrw?

All 8, huh? You make quick work.

u bet!
gonna fly back 2 g-rod n take the train
u gonna b staying in 1 place 4 long?

I think Kyrie likes it here, so probably.

[Barring any...incidents.]

ya she sed smth like that
ill catch up w/u guys in no time!

Bring your swimsuit, water's actually pretty clean once you get away from the quays.

clean? who cares?
ill swim newere!
me n kyrie-sis were talkn abt going 2 visit cinnabar wen i catch up
i GUESS u can come 2

Your skin, probably. The thought of swimming next to garbage doesn't appeal too much, personally. Cinnabar might have a beach. Didn't a volcano erupt there?

cinnabar def has a beach AND a volcano
its prty cool
but all thats there is the pkmn center

Isn't there supposed to be a gym, too?

vlcno blew it up
its in the seafoam islands now
or it was in the game at least

Then you won't mind if we make a detour on the way to the island, right?

corse not!
i gotta kick blaines butt too!
xept...
i herd the kanto gym ldrs have all lvl100 teams if u have all ur johto badges

Yeah, I've been told that. Not ready for it?

godzilla-bro is lvl85
nxt hiest is 71
so no
not rly

Looks like that gives me a little more time to clean up out here. I'm thinking of hitting up Cerulean next.

gonna solo cerulean w/a lvl100 jolteon when i get there
gotta do sum thinking on my kanto team tho
i wont b overlvld for the gyms nemore

I doubt that one lv100 pokemon is going to stand alone against a team of six, but if you pull it off I'll be impressed.

guess it dpends
in the games she only had 2 pkmn but if she has 6 it mite b a diff story
neway as long as theres none dual typed w/ground ill prbly b ok?
maybe

I thought all the 'elite' teams were six. Could be wrong, though.

makes sense
i just herd abt the lvl100 thing from some cake-bro
didnt rly get much info

[ok you lost him]

'Cake-bro'? Can't you write like a normal person?

like i know the dudes name?
hes some guy who sold me a slowpoke egg 4 a cake
that i didnt even have 2 pay 4
sucker

You're assuming he got the crap end of the stick.
