[ Nothing interesting on the video feed here, just a black-haired boy with his pikachu's head poking from the bottom of the screen. ]

Hi, my name's Red. I've got a couple of questions... I wanted to ask about first aid and the battle dome, and also if there's anybody that knows about fixing things? [ He looks away ] I don't have anything broken, but I wanted to have something looked at.

[ Right, anyway. Back to the screen. ]

But with the first aid... I was wondering if anyone had the time to help me see if I know what I'm doing? I got taught how to put on bandages a long time ago, but I don't think I was doing it right the last time I did it.

[ Maybe it had been fine, but a refresher would be good either way. ]

Anyway, then the battle dome - I wanted to know about what fighters train against in there. [ This was going to be hard, but ] I know people here have different abilities, and what we can handle is different too. I've tried creatures not from my world, but I guess...

[ What does he guess? He thinks, pinching his bottom lip in. ]

...I guess I just want to know if there's something better me and my pokémon can do. Everything's still challenging in the battle dome, but I want -- more? [ Um.

That sounds... bad? He fidgets, then shrugs. ] I don't know. I thought it'd be interesting to know what else we could fight on there. That's about it really.

Well... that's it. Bye.

Hey, Caius. [ He pauses, trying to think of how to continue... ] You fight with a sword, right? I want to practice with you sometime, if you've got the time.

Huh? What other kind can I battle?

Uhh... trainers?

I don't know what other people do everyday though. It's just easier if we use the simulations.

Dude, I'm talkin' about fighting trainers in the simulations.

What? [ Like dude yeah I get that so why are you being--- ]

[ -- OH ]

Wait, you can make trainers pop up with that thing?

Of course! And you do know that Pokémon gain more experience against trained Pokémon, right?

Of course I do! You don't have to be a smart aleck, I didn't know you could make trainers show up in there!

Geez, calm down, I'm just makin' sure you know all there is to know about training.

In the most know-it-all way.

Don't worry about stuff like that. Anyway, I'll teach you how to do it, then.

Fine. But I can try doing it myself. You don't have to.

Doesn't matter if I don't have to. I want to. I wanna help you out.

Well, alright. [ He gives a light shrug. ] We're going to be around the battle dome all day anyway.

Sweet, I'll drop by later, then!

'kay. See you.

[ He ends up doing other stuff than fiddling around and looking for trainers in the console, so it's only until later than he gets to do so. Really, he doesn't want Gold to show him how to do it, but actually bringing up the list of names...

Instead, he ends up on different monsters and running down the lists. There could be a good bunch they could train against that would be just as challenging and rewarding as a trainer. Maybe. ]

[It's quite some time before Gold finally decides to show up, and when he does, he barges into the room quite abruptly, not even bothering to knock.]

I'm here!

[ And Red's right in the middle of a simulation in a cave filled with large, stone golems with his team out on the attack, with Red on the other side. Just out for a stone head being thrown at the wall beside you Gold, 'cause that's what they do. ]

Wh-whoa! [He steps back a couple paces when the head comes flying at him. He feels as if his life may have flashed before his eyes.]

[ Dramaatiiic. Nobody is stopping for you either, Gold. Golems even currently headless are continuing on in attack, using either their body or the nearby boulders or leftover heads or whatever study body parts they can pick up as weaponry.

For Snorlax, it's a punch out taking place, or just a good ol' wrestling match involving an enemy currently being lifted overhead and chucked into a wall (luckily for Gold, not next to him). For Venusaur, she's concentrating on disabling the enemies with her vines, while also trying to pull against them to bring them down.

And in here, Pikachu's attacks actually have some effect on the monsters by the look of the fact that he's even bothering to use electricity. But he's dartign around, being more problematic and distracting than using his full force on them. He's also keeping an eye on Red, who has to move around just in much in this; nobody's going to be ignored here.

Which, by the way -- looks like a golem has noticed you, Gold. ]

[Gold's eyes meet with the golem's, and that's what tells him it's time for a battle. He jumps back a couple paces and then crouches down, placing Togetaro's ball on the ground. Lining up his shot, he sends the ball rocketing towards the golem. Togetaro then breaks out of the ball, and using the momentum it's gained to enhance its strength, strikes out with a Double-Edge to hit the core of the golem and plow right through it.]

[ The creature shatters upon Togetaro's impact, the explosion it causes ricochets the pieces off the walls and hit against the other creatures inside it. The sound of the golem's decimation catches Red and alerts him this time of Gold's presence, though all he can give him is a quick ] Gold! [ before returning his attention to what's still there.

Might as well finish off what's inside than to cut it short, but Red will try to make it quick. There's a loud and awkward thud as the enemy under Venusaur's grasp hits the ground, and then the plant pokémon growls to bring Snorlax's attention over to her and it. Which is a fine enough time, the wrestling match between him and another golem ending when its rocky torso becomes dislocated from the rest of its body, then thrown towards Red's side of the cave.

And how does it help deal with Venusaur's monster? By a continuous bashing down upon its chest with a large, heavy foot until it goes right through to the other side.

There's still about two left though (not counting the feetless torso, which still looks like it has the ability to move), over with Pikachu that he's been using against each other, and attempting to focus more on physical attacks than the apparently useful electricity here. He moves quicker than normal, off from the golems and climbing on the wall to gain some power when jumping off with his body curled around itself to hurl into the head still attached to the body.

It goes down, but not without leaving Pikachu tired and feeling the impact of smashing himself against hard stone like that, and while he's breathing hard under what's he's been doing, he moves in time and onto the floor to miss a hand swinging up to thwap him like a fly.

Oh hi Gold wanna do anything got distracted there. ]

[nah he's good he'll just stand here and watch. you got this, right, Red? It's your training session, after all. he just hops onto Togetaro's back and floats above the battle now, watching Red do his stuff. He'd hate to interfere with Red's training, after all. He kind of needs it.]

[ Hey good nobody likes a kill steal or whatever they call 'em in MMORPGs. Venusaur and Snorlax come over to join Pikachu to help him finish off the last of the golems, and then, once that's all over and they know it is, the remains of the monsters disappear and it's just the lot of them in the room.

Oh hey yeah right. Gold. Let's go over to where he's flying. ]

Hey.

Yo. [He gives a wave.] Sorry I had to take one of your kills there, but he looked at me funny.
