(Route) [002]: Somehow, we survived. [audio/action for Cherrygrove City]

[corvus_veritas]

[One can hear throughout this audio post that Byrne's tired, slightly out of breath and, um...rather upset.]

Alright--I've finally made it to Cherrygrove with Locke. So someone please fill me in: what the hell is wrong with the wildlife around here? You can't look at a Rattata without it trying to chew your damn face off!

[...Did I mention Byrne is

[video] most beautiful post ever owo

[miniworth]

[And this time, Byrne finally gets video from Miles, who is.... in said wilderness. But don't worry Byrne, to Miles the most dangerous thing was Kay herself, who had had a habit of visiting Miles through the window of his sixth-story hotel room.

Yeah.

Anyway, you finally get to see the shota's face appear on your feed.]

Not all Pokémon are that bad, you know.

[video] why thank you! ^^3

[corvus_veritas]

[That voice...? Byrne is mildly surprised to be seeing the Miles Edgeworth right now, and it shows in his expression. For a moment. Until he simply shakes his head to disagree with what the boy has said.]

If they stopped attacking me and trying to loot my things--[Brief accusing stare at Little Thief]--I might believe you.

[video]

[miniworth]

[It is at this moment, Byrne, that you might notice an eight-foot-tall tiger-lion-dog thing looming over Miles. Say hello to Pess the Arcanine.]

I've been here for four months, and I've seen more Pokémon than you. You should believe me.

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[Oh Byrne notices, alright. If you can't tell by his sudden wide-eyed, OMFG YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET EATEN face.]

--W-wha--WHAT IS THAT?!

[video]

[miniworth]

Whu---

[He looks over his shoulder.]

Oh! This is Pess, my Arcanine.. here Pess, say hello. [And she gives a nod of greeting before SHE EATS MILES' FACE she leans in to nuzzle her trainer, who reaches up to scratch her behind the ear.]

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[............DID NOT JUST HAVE A HEART ATTACK, NOPE. THIS EXPRESSION? PURE ADORATION FOR THAT ARCANINE. NOT OUT OF FEAR FOR MILES' SAFETY OR ANYTHING SILLY LIKE THAT.]

Pokemon can get that large!?

[video]

[miniworth]

Arcanines in general grow to be around six feet tall. Pess is just tall for her kind.

[IT'S OKAY BYRNE HE UNDERSTANDS. HE WAS ATTACKED BY PESS ONLY A FEW DAYS AGO, TOO.]

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[...BETTER KEEP THAT FROM BYRNE BEFORE HE REALLY DOES HAVE A HEART ATTACK.]

And she's not aggressive towards you? At all?

[Byrne is noting how Pess is almost twice your height, Miles. And he is thinking of how easily she might take advantage of that fact. HE'S A PARANOID PARENT AT HEART HE CAN'T HELP IT.]

[video]

[miniworth]

[He's good at bluffing, being a prosecutor baby.]

Of course not! The most we do is play tag..

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

If you're sure... [Somehow, Byrne doesn't believe you, but he's no longer arguing about this.]

How in the world did you find a Pokemon so large, much less catch it?

[video]

[miniworth]

Pess has been with me since I first arrived her - she was a lot smaller back then, and then she evolved.

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[Byrne stares at Pess.

Byrne stares at Little Thief, who is now poking her face into the shot. He also remembers the Rattata who constantly attacked him.

Byrne connects the dots.

Byrne does not like the images that come to mind, especially since they involve 8 foot tall monster rats and foxes.]

Don't tell me she will get that big too? [Points at Little Thief.]

[video]

[miniworth]

I don't think so.. although I've never seen a Vulpix's evolution before......

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

[GREAT, BYRNE IS GOING TO SLEEP SO WELL TONIGHT.]

...When do they evolve?

[video]

[miniworth]

Pokémon evolve when they've grown strong enough, or, like Pess, exposed to certain kinds of stones.

[video]

[corvus_veritas]

A stone? How in the world does that work?
