28th Transformation [video/text/action for Violet; backdated to 12/13]
[It looks like Envy's decided to go ahead and take out his frustration at yet another loss of three days on Violet's resident Gym Leader. Yeah, he woke up all the way back in Violet. There's clearly a Pokemon filming, probably his Lucario, and when the feed comes on it's just in time to catch a good shot of Xerxes the Luxray landing a one-hit-KO Thunder Fang on Falkner's Honchkrow.]
[Is this overkill? Yes. Does Envy care? Absolutely not. Xerxes paces in front of Envy, eyes glowing brightly in the dim light, while Falkner calls back his fainted Pokemon and sends out his last. And while the Pigeot does look impressive, it's really no match. In fact, Envy is plainly toying with it and Falkner for the first several moves, having Xerxes begin with Swagger, Scary Face, and Charge before finally giving the command for an electric attack. The Discharge attack is almost blindingly bright, and when it's over there's one fainted Pigeot and one very pleased-with-himself Luxray.]
My dad's cherished bird Pokemon... All right. Take this. It's the official Pokemon League Zephyr Badge.
[Envy takes the badge and the ™ it comes with, and is apparently unable to resist a jab.] You know, maybe if you trained your own birds you might actually win every once in a while.
[Falkner frowns, looking indignant.] I'm proud to have inherited this gym from my father!
Yeah, I'm sure. [An odd scowl flashes across Envy's face before he's back to the nonchalant smirk he was wearing before. He's apparently either satisfied with having gotten a reaction or doesn't want to continue down this line of conversation, because he just shrugs after that.] Well, good battle.
[He walks back over to where the Pokegear holder is standing without waiting for an answer, and looks surprised that he's been being filmed for a moment before grinning and holding up his new badge.] And that makes four. I guess if we had to lose three days again and get thrown to other cities, at least I got something useful out of it. [End feed.]

Was I the only one who wound up in another city or are you somewhere else too? I can use fly now, so I can get to wherever you are without walking for weeks.
