Second Trick - Video/Action Cherrygrove City/Route 29
[It's been a bit since the tantrum that announced her arrival in Johto, and the Great and Powerful Trixie has been fairly quiet on the Pokegear. That time has not been spent, as might be expected, sulking. Mostly, anyway.]
[No, Trixie's been doing her darndest to learn about the world she's found herself in. She's serious about getting out of here, but you can't break the rules and exploit loopholes without knowing what the rules are. So she's been pouring over the contents of the Trainer's Handbook and any information in Oak's letter or the Pokedex, looking for ANYTHING that might help.]
[She hasn't found anything that looks likely to get her home, but now she's got a decent idea of how people in this world get by without magic.]
[So it is that she and Jelly the Ditto come to be walking through the grass outside Cherrygrove City, looking for things to capture or beat up.]
We saw plenty of them on the way HERE, why are they not appearing now?
Di.
No, I am QUITE certain they are merely hiding.
Di-tto.
Well OBVIOUSLY they are intimidated by the presence of-
Tre-e-e?
[A short beat, and slow turn, to the Sentret standing curiously behind them.]
......
Sen?
..........
Jelly! Transform and attack!
Di!
[There's a short popping sound, and Trixie's Ditto is replaced by another Sentret before diving at the first. Trixie quickly consults the Pokegear.]
Scratch attack!
[Jelly's stubby, clawed paw strikes out and bats at the other Sentret, knocking it back. A Pokeball sails over Jelly's head and bounces off the Sentret, popping open and vanishing the startled Pokemon in a wave of red light. Falling to the ground, the ball rattles a few times and then settles with a 'bing'.]
... That was disappointingly easy.
[Trixie picks up the ball and presses the button on the front, releasing the Sentret in a flash of light. It looks thoroughly disoriented, but not particularly hostile as Jelly reverts to its natural form and oozes over.]
Di?
Tre...
Creature. Uh, Sentret. You serve me now, correct? That is how this works.
Sen?
The Great and Powerful Trixie assumes that is a yes. Despicable as it might be, the Great and Powerful Trixie finds herself in need of creatures like you. If you serve me, you shall become legendary as one of the Pokemon to aid in the Great and Powerful Trixie's return to power!
....Tret?
Di.
[The video clicks on some time after Trixie's first foray into Pokemon catching. She's sitting smugly under a tree near Cherrygrove city, a freshly caught-and-healed Sentret sitting beside her and sharing a berry with a Ditto.]
The Great and Powerful Trixie would like to announce that she has made an addition to her cadre of elite Pokemon.
[Yeah, she's back in full-on pretentious show-off mode. She's got big plans, so obviously the best choice of action is to tell everyone all about it.]
This world demands that I prove my greatness through the capture and training of these Pokemon? Very well. Capturing Stage was merely the first step, ridiculously easy as it was.
[The Sentret perks up briefly, hearing its new name.]
Easy or not, the Great and Powerful Trixie will rise again and prove herself to all that dared doubt her! I shall become the greatest Pokemon trainer this world has EVER SEEN.
