[The beginning of this video starts off more than just shaky, for the whole device seems to be twisting and turning. A loud THUD sounds as the PNG smacks the cool pavement hard, and now all it's getting is the upward shot of businessmen

[aaron's eyes are the most round. That was quite the impressive entry....]

Um, hi! Nice t'meet ya, Burgh! Gee, I never knew the PNG was so durable...

--Oh! But I'm Aaron, from Sinnoh! [Casual salute for greeting! If only he knew more about the Unova region; he may have recognized you and flipped then, but...]

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

Neither did I. Then again, how long have I been acquainted with the PNG? Maybe five hours, tops.

Pleasure to meet you, Aaron. Hmm... are you a trainer or anything?

[video]

[elitefouraaron]

Sure am! [griiiin] I'm part of the Elite Four here! I train Bug-types!

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

[Oh... oh... Burgh's heard a little about a Bug-type elite trainer, but never did he think he'd be meeting him here...! Suddenly, he seems so much more animated, gripping onto the PNG hard.]

B-Bug-types?! Ohhh, what a great surprise! Such a nice choice of you to make, as well...! Aaron, huh? It's awesome to meet another Bug-type specialist. [His smile just won't go away. It's too big.] I'm a gym leader who uses Bug-types here in Unova.

You are an artist? Neat.

[Sitara twitters, and Meissa turns to her, PNG still recording. Sitara sticks her foot in some flour - ]

OY!

[ - and stamps her little birdy foot on a brownie. She moves her foot to reveal a pidgey sized footprint on the brownie, tweeting happily.]

Evidently, she pretends to be one as well. Sitara, you are lucky that brownie was for Uncle and not a customer.

[Sitara looks up at her partner with teary eyes, and Meissa sighs.]

Alright. It is cute.

[Sitara rejoices with plenty of tweets, crawling up Meissa with her foot covered in flour, and hugs the back of Meissa's head with a single wing.]

Oh right. I am Meissa of Olivine, Johto. I am a pastry chef, not a trainer, and Sitara delivers my baked goods. It is nice to meet you.

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

A pastry chef? Hmm, that's an art in itself. [He shifts the camera.] You know, I like that. ... Sitara, is it? It's cute.

Thanks to this neat video function, maybe you can show me something you've baked? Have you got anything around? [Burgh seems genuinely interested, eyeing the camera curiously.]

[video]

[icingstars]

[Meissa smiles.]

Thanks. I can show you this chocolate pidgey I made for my birthday - though we already ate the tail.

[She sets the PNG on a counter top, though she's in full view as she opens the fridge and pulls out a thirty centimetre tall pidgey she carved from a solid block of chocolate. She picks up the PNG again to give Burgh a good look, circling the pidgey so he can see it from different angles. Sitara blushes, since the pidgey was modeled after her.]

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

[Burgh practically sparkles with excitement, gasping in awe and admiring the detail put into the Pidgey.] That is simply stunning! I'll bet you're not only good at baking, but here you are, able to make a display of it! Mmm-hmm, I'd say that's what makes what you do an art form.

[He laughs a little at the end.] Your Pokémon seems to think it looks just like her, and I would have to agree.

[Elesa emits a girlish squeal.]

My favourite artisan!

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

[Burgh's excitement in seeing such a familiar face is conveyed through a gasp and a hand flying to cup his cheek.]

Elesa, my favorite model! That's right, I heard something about other gym leaders getting these little guys. How've you been?

[afterpower]

[Sorta just looking at the burgundy paint. Then at Burgh. Then thinks - 'Of course. Who else would it be?]

I've seen quite a few other gym leaders in different regions with PNGs, so I guess it's only natural that Unova's gym leaders get one too. When did yours arrive? [Yes. Cheren doesn't really say hello often. Think of this as his greeting]

[snickmyswitch]

[Burgh taps his jaw in thought.]

I woke up with it this morning. Didn't want to mess around with it until around now, so... so, that's that. It went something like that.

[afterpower]

[Inclines his head slightly, as if he nods. But.. it's not really a nod]

Sounds like how I got mine... in a sense. Mine was just waiting for me. [Cheren shrugs his shoulders slightly] How's your gym?

[snickmyswitch]

My gym? It's as good as ever, if I do say so myself. I'm working on new artwork to be displayed soon as a set, so I'm as busy as a bee with all of these incredible ideas.

[poketraveler]

Hey there! Another Unova gym leader - now I know three? {{counts to herself, then smiles}} Three!

Oh yes - I'm Leaf, from Pallet Town, Kanto. And I'll be coming to Unova pretty soon! {{so excited omg okay she's back now}}

Hmm. So, what type do you work with, Mr. Burgh~?

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

"Pallet Town"... I've never heard of Pallet Town. I think I need to do a bit more research about all of these other regions I'm not familiar with. Probably.

You wanna know what type I use? [He bends forward, and the camera angle changes along with this, since he's holding it in his hands.] Can you guess? I'd like to see what you think.

Re: [video]

[poketraveler]

{{puts her hands on her hips - her PNG is propped up against some travel books.}} You've never heard of Pallet? I mean, true, it is a dinky old town, but that's where Red is from. Y'know, the Legendary Red? The one whose name you always have to double capitilize in you head, just to show his awesomeness?

Ooh~! I wanna guess! {{stares into the video camera, then paces, thinking}} You can't be a Fire, Grass, Water, or Electric type, because they never repeat.. Your hair is brown, but you're not harsh enough for either Rock, Ground, or Steel... In fact, you're really flighty~! So I'd narrow it down to probably Flying, right? Y'know, just cause I don't know how many Dragon-type pokémon there are in Unova.

[video]

[snickmyswitch]

Red, Red... [Burgh shrugs.] Doesn't ring a bell! Well... it might, but I can't think of anything off the top of my head. [His index finger pops up and points toward the ceiling, as though he has something to say.] Hmm, maybe it's because I'm from Unova. Actually, I haven't been able to learn much about other regions, if you know what I'm saying.

And about your guess... Nope! Definitely not Flying-type. That's Skyla, another gym leader from Unova. I'll give you another chance.
