[Rin looks really, really out of place in the middle of a blocky, selectively-colored digital environment that is supposed to be Violet City at night. She hasn't left yet due to the ominous weather.]
So if anyone had any doubts that this was some kind of video game, I really hope for your sake you're not still in denial about it after this.

But you think that someone actually caused this?

Someone either here or elsewhere. I don't know what effect the people who get taken here have on the game itself, but if they don't have any influence on it, then who else possibly could but people outside this world?
I don't like the idea of being someone's digital plaything, but I don't know how else to explain it. Stuff like this doesn't just happen unless it was part of the programming, or someone messed around with it.

As far as I know, there's the physical things that make video games work, and there's the code that tells the game what to do. If the code gets messed up somehow... this is probably one of the things that happens. Something no one expects.
It must be fixable somehow, since it's just data. Someone could be trying to fix it right now, for all I know. But then... it could be that we're here on purpose, or maybe it's all just a gigantic accident someone out there is working to resolve.

...Maybe these things might have something to do with it, at that. They're the only things out of the ordinary here.

I have no idea what could have altered programming from inside the system itself.

It wouldn't explain the discrepancies in time and worlds between everyone here, but there has to be some logical reason for this--!

[Pixel!Rubin attacks the Missingno in front of her with a very low-res Shadow Ball, which ultimately... appears to have no effect on it.]
...You've got to be kidding me!

I didn't mean this.

I don't think anyone with more than just artificial intelligence would want to live here if this is what it was always like. Whatever happened, whoever messed it up had better fix it soon.

Now 'm kinda questioning that logic.

...There's only one thing that doesn't fit.
[She gestures indicatively to her Misdreavus, Rubin, facing off against a Missingno in the form of a fossil Aerodactyl. The first attack to fire off, Rubin's Shadow Ball, just passes harmlessly through it, and Rin makes a face.]
What do you make of that thing?

[But like with anything that makes Heather uncomfortable, she feels best just reacting to it with anger.]
How the hell could one of US have caused this?

I hate the thought, but what other explanation is there? Machines don't do anything people don't tell them to do.

Tohsaka, get to the Pokémon Center now! I'll distract it!

[Rin pauses, standing her ground. The thing doesn't have a scratch on it, she suspects due either to errors or typing (does it even have a type? hell if she knows), but it's not attacking THEM, at least.]
Do you really want to mess things up even more?! Your Pokemon might be at risk if you attack it! If I'm going to the Pokemon Center, so are you!!
