Entry 22 [Phone calls. oh so many phone calls]

[usedsuitup]

"RING RING!

RING RING!"

Hear that, Johto? That's the sound of your phone ringing.

Pick up.




(so if it isn't obvious. Larry and Barney dressed up as youngsters. And got possessed. Joint post because they just need to tell you how their pokemon are in the top percentage)

Dude! Dude! You know my Bidoof? I was fighting a Zubat the other day, but my Bidoof was too powerful for it so it KO'd it before I could catch it.

So I'm thinkin' I should make some new strategies so he doesn't destroy everything he attacks. But...maybe I don't need another Pokemon if Bidoof is so strong, y'know?

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

Your what? Who is this?

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

My Bidoof! You know, the best Pokemon ever? Sentrets are cool too though.

[So the Commander gets a slight video feed of a Bidoof shoved up in front of the screen.]

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

That? The best Pokemon ever? This must be some ssssort of joke! It looks harmless!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Dude, did you not just hear me? He destroyed a Zubat! That ain't harmless!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

That's hardly impressive! Almost anything can take out a Zubat!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Ohhh but you didn't see this Zubat! It was like...huge and had giant, razor-sharp teeth! Real vicious. That's why I wanted to catch it!

But my Bidoof annihilated it like it was nothing. He's not in the top percentage of Bidoofs for nothing!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

...you mean a Golbat?

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

No, man! It was a Zubat! That's why it's so amazing!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

There's no such thing as a giant Zubat!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Tell that to the giant Zubat that Bidoof took down!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

I would if it existed!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Well it does, so there.

Believe me or not, I still know what happened.

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

I still think you're making thissss up!

[Grumbling.]

Why are you even telling me all this? I don't even know you!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

[So he's just going to drop the Zubat subject...very unsubtly.]

Because everyone needs to know about how awesome my Bidoof is!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

Well if it's ssssso awesome, perhaps we should see if it can stand up to a Hyper Beam!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Hyper Beam...

[He sounds a bit unsure about it.]

I can! He can always endure!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

Then let's test that! Where are you?

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Y-You're on!

I'm in Goldenrod. By the festival!

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

By the festival? That doesn't work for me! Pick a different location!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

Because I said sssso! Now pick somewhere more private!

[While he's not against hitting the festival with a Hyper Beam on "accident," it'd draw the wrong kind of attention.]

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

Fine, jeez!

Uhhh...outskirts of Goldenrod? On the route toward the park?

[serpensrex.livejournal.com]

I'll be waiting! You have one hour!

[itsthebutz.livejournal.com]

[So sure enough, he splits up with Barney for a bit to battle this crazy guy. He's definitely confident that he's going to destroy him with just Bidoof, but hey, he needs to prove it after all.]
