Hey guys, so WE HERD U LIEK LEGENDARIES?!?!
So, you all remember the Rockets taking over the Goldenrod Radio Tower, right? That was a while ago? Pshawwwww, it was so Arianna could boss around some nerds -- I mean, create just the right signal in an underground hideout. Now that it's finally ready, it's time to put this obnoxious, Pokemon-audible-only noise to work and get Team Rocket some ~*~shinies~*~!
That legend about the Red Gyarados in the Lake of Rage? Well, Team Rocket is about to find out if it's really there or not. In the wee hours of the morning on Saturday, May 21st, Arianna is going to gleefully release a new radio signal to the air. Just when nothing seems to be happening, that afternoon? Aw yeah, a large swarm of Gyarados are surfacing in the Lake of Rage.
Downside? None are shiny and red. The radio noise is causing the Gyarados to go bonkers, and it's RAIN DANCE RAIN DANCE RAIN DANCE nonstop for them all! The result of all that rain dancing is unfortunately causing quite an enormous thunderstorm to form over the northern part of Johto around 5 in the afternoon, encompassing Ecruteak City and stretching as far as Blackthorn City.
Get your umbrellas and golashes on, cause that isn't the end of it, folks. With the signal still going strong the next day (May 22nd), it's not just the Gyarados that are being driven mad by the racket. Wild Pokemon that hang out in the water all over Johto (whether it is by lake, stream, pond or out into the ocean) are going to start migrating inland to escape the sound.
It sure sucks how sound travels faster in water and is exponentially louder, you know? These inland migrations will keep happening all day, and it doesn't seem like there's an end in sight for both the downpour of constant RAINDANCERAINDANCE and Pokemon... and yeah, it really isn't ending just yet. Even better (sarcasm here), most trainer-owned Water type Pokemon are having difficulties with the 'invisible' noise, becoming downright disagreeable and being prone to just... being hard to control. High chances are they'll be incapable of battling for you, guys.
THE GOOD NEWS IS: something else finally happens in the middle of the night. That something else?
Lugia.
With the radio tower still giving out that ugly frequency and for now, two days straight, Lugia finally comes shooting out of the Whirlpool Islands in a mad attempt to escape the noise. Really, all that does is cause a massive storm at sea.
Cianwood, luckily, is a bit more prepared for this kind of thing, and they are able to keep the water at bay with some quick work of Chuck's Pokemon digging trenches along the edge of the small town.
Of course, the news team over in Cianwood passes video footage along. As soon as Archer sees that when he gets his coffee early on the morning of May 23rd? Sup Arianna, plans have changed. Team Rocket is going to get its hands on a true legendary, not some myth of a red fish in a lake; Team Rocket will be aiming for Lugia.
However, the crazy waves coming in from the storms Lugia caused are giving Olivine City a good pounding, and Officer Jennys are realizing they need help; an SOS for all trainers that feel they can lend a hand, available Officer Jennys will drive them to Olivine to help dig the trenches needed at the edge of town to keep the tides from flooding in! By the time evening rolls around, hopefully, there will be a few trainers in and helping out.
While Lugia zips around the ocean trying to block out that noise the Radio Tower is still giving off, Trainers and Breeders and really anyone willing to help can contact a Jenny and get a free, risk-free car trip to Olivine. (Yes, return of the crazy driver Jenny; buckle your seatbelts, ladies and gents, you're in for a... bumpy ride.)
Rockets? They'll take helicoptor rides to the edge of town where Grunts will be dropped off discreetly in a small clearing off Route, where Archer will be waiting with details, on how you'll help them get that Lugia...
