17 [VIDEO] BACKDATED TO OCTOBER 24TH

[...so there was certainly a news broadcast featuring a certain Pokemon Professor just now, and while Kayneth usually doesn't mug for these sorts of things, he... goes with video in case he needs to show off something.

For now, though.

For now.

...on some level, he's thrilled, but on another level... the way he's drumming his fingers on his desk suggests some level of exasperation.]


Well, I believe that broadcast may have cleared up a mystery or two for those of us who have noticed some strange things about some of the new Pokemon --- namely, the Fairy type this professor was talking about. Some others and I have noticed that several Pokemon had an unusual amount of resistance to the Dragon type, and while I suppose it could have been some bizarrely common ability... well, as sudden as this seems, a whole new type suddenly appearing out of the ether makes more sense.

[he... sighs....... and then grabs the gear, turning it to show off three Pokemon. They happen to be a Carbink floating closer to the camera to try and mug a bit, distracting a bit from a spacey looking Swirlix and a shy looking Flabebe.]

...Dionisy, could you not...? Anyway, I've determined that these Pokemon seem as though they completely resist Dragon type moves, making them decent candidates for this new type. If you've noticed this particular quality from any of the Pokemon that you caught over the course of September, please tell me --- being able to catalog them would probably be useful for all of us.

[...something's still bothering him, though, as the Carbink continues to float around in the background and waggle their ears at the table...]

...Of course, that broadcast... brought up another question. Is anyone here familiar with the palace of Versailles? I'm really certain the Professor was just... standing in front of Versailles.

In... France.

[...he

sighs..............]


...likely, it's... some sort of equivalent, but... is there truly a place in this world that's just France...? Is there an equivalent to everything? Of course, I have no idea if there's any sort of point to speculating given that we'll never actually go there.

[A gloomy pause.]

Probably not, really.

I suppose I can't really disagree. I'm not saying I'd rush out to get some of them just to have the Dragon resistance, but at least I know my little flower can hold her own.

[Clearly that's all that matters. Flowers.]

So you're saying it was passable as the landmark itself, if you could at least identify it within a short window of time. [He shakes his head.] But I do understand. Though it may pass as it, it may not live up to the original in the details.

...You know, I'm rather curious now. What would be your hometown's landmark, if this world were to have an equivalent?

[He hasn't even seen the horrible barnacle thing...probably for the best. He wouldn't want his delicate senses to be offended by the sight of the thing.

He nods along with Kayneth's list of landmarks.]


Would you care to describe your favorite of those? Names are one thing, but you must remember I've never been there.

[...Now that has his attention.]

Really. How fortunate that it happens to located where you live. It would certainly be one of my first stops if I ever visited, especially if it has a wide array of artifacts from around your world all in one place.
