[ Your blue-haired protagonist with headphones video feed (no, not that one, the other one. the one with a not-gun!) today is coming to you live from the very top of Sprout Tower. Minato is standing opposite Elder Li, and it's evident from a few strewn rocks and webs about the place that a battle has just concluded. Not that you cold tell from Minato's calm demeanour, hands in pockets with his Geodude sitting on the floor nearby and his Spinarak on his shoulder, both of the Pokemon just a little scratched up.
Elder Li bows, and speaks: All living beings coexist through co-operation, young man. I see that you understand this...your bond with your Pokemon grows through each day. Please, take this TM, and continue to spread the spirit of our teachings throughout Johto. I feel that you will not let us down.
Flash: get! For Minato's part, he pulls his hands out of his pockets to straighten, press his palms together, and return the second bow the old man is giving him with one of his own. This guy is a far cry from Mutatsu, in that club back home...but it's still good to see some things are the same. Minato lifts his head, speaking seriously. ]
I will. Thank you, Elder Li.
[ And that's all there is to it. Minato doesn't notice that the feed is running - thanks to his Gastly, judging by the snickering laughter in the background - until he turns to walk away, tucking the TM safely into his bag. Minato blinks, then sighs a little, moving over and giving the camera a big ol' close-up as he takes the device from his ghostly friend. ]
Thomas...
Gas gas!
[ And the feed turns off. ]
