[The feed turns on to show Yuugi, with a strange device worn on his arm, examining a deck of cards.]

It seems like this place isn't like the other games I've played. So far, only one person I've talked to has known about it, so I'm asking here. Are there any other duelists in this place?

Duelist. Is that like a trainer? Trainers have battles.

[thebackside]

... No. A duelist is one who fights with these.

[He holds up his deck, turning one around to show this card.]

[N leans in to examine the card.] I've never seen a card like that before. It is for a game, then? [He asks with interested curiosity. He likes games.]

That is not at all like a trainer. They battle with Pokémon, like Zoroark here. [As Zoroark is the Pokémon most conveniently located, N shifts his PORTAL to show him the large, bipedal foxlike creature. Zoroark is playing with a basketball, but pauses to regard the stranger with wary interest, then glances at N with a look that seems to wryly ask why he is talking to all these people.]

[That catches his interest.]

It's a game, yes.

Pokemon... I've never seen a monster like that.

[:? poker?]

I am afraid I do not follow either... Duelists?

[thebackside]

Duelists. Ones who play Duel Monsters.

[He spreads the deck out to show the cards in it!]

[ruffleddress]

It sounds rather exciting.

[thebackside]

It is. It's a good game.

[pinkmoonrabbit]

I've played card games before!

[thebackside]

What kind?

[pinkmoonrabbit]

Like solitaire, Go Fish, Old Maid, and Rummy! They're all pretty fun.

[thebackside]

Sorry, that's the wrong kind of card game.
