[[The feed opens to the sight of an Umbreon sitting calmly in the grass, blinking softly as he looks into the camera. It isn't long, however, before the focus of the image is shifted, sliding away from the Umbreon and bringing into view a shivering Chikorita, lying on what appears to be a brown blanket. In actuality, it's Page's skirt, and said skirt-owner is currently on her knees, gently washing dirt from the Chikorita's pale skin. It's peppered with injuries; mainly scratches, but there's a rather nasty gash on its side that Page is trying to treat. Without pausing in her work, she addresses the feed.]]

Do any of you have any experience with Pokemon medicine or medical care? I found her underneath a tree this morning. I don't know what attacked her but she keeps dipping in and out of consciousness and I'm....worried.

[[As Page looks down at the Chikorita, her Gligar crawls up her back and pops over her shoulder, joining her in looking down at their unexpected guest. The Umbreon hasn't moved the entire time, instead flicking his eyes around the area. It never hurts to be cautious, especially when they're tripping over injured Pokemon. Page returns her gaze to the camera for one last plea for help.]]

There are a lot of berries around the place but I don't know if any will help break her fever. The guidebook doesn't really cover anything like that. If there's anyone out there that can offer advice, even a little, I'd really appreciate it.

[[With a final look down at the Chikorita, Page nods slightly, before moving to cut the feed.]]

Thank you for listening.

[Logan doesn't see the video until later that night (due to travelling and oh man he never wants to ride a Steelix again if he can avoid it), but when he does, he's quick to respond.]

I hope everything turned out fine.

[[Page is currently out of the Ilex forest and making her way towards Goldenrod City rather quickly, due to the fact that she's sitting in Harper the Kangaskhan's pouch, legs dangling out one side.

....look, she's fast, alright.]]

Somewhat; I've put her in a Pokeball and we're currently heading to Goldenrod City as quickly as we can.

[[Huh. It's oddly pleasant to hear from you, Logan.]]

You've been there, haven't you? Any advice? I've heard it's....an experience.

[...Okay, that's kind of adorable for some reason.]

That's certainly one way to describe it. Goldenrod is like nothing I've ever seen before. It's much larger than Bowerstone and incredibly easy to get lost in.

[And without the light trail, his sense of direction is horrible.]

There are all sorts of things to see there and Goldenrod has the largest Pokémart of all the cities I've been in. It can be a bit overwhelming, however.

[A short pause. That's not what's important right now.]

Do you have any idea what happened to that Pokémon? You found it in the Ilex Forest, correct? I don't recall any other Pokémon in the area that could have caused an injury like that.

[Then again, he doesn't remember much of what happened in the forest since there were a lot of ghosts and he's pretty sure Reaver managed to drag him through the place in record time.]

[[Page shakes her head, getting out the Chikorita's Pokeball and examining it.]]

I literally just stumbled across her lying underneath a tree in that state; when she's feeling better I'm sure one of my Pokemon will be able to talk to her and find out what happened. For now I'm just trying to get to Goldenrod as quickly as possible.

[[Stifling a yawn, Page tucks the Pokeball neatly back into her belt. Despite her initial reluctance to do it, it is a good method of transport for an injured Pokemon.]]

As long as the place has a good Pokemon centre, I couldn't care less what else is there. Although the big...department store sounds interesting.

[[Smirking slightly, Page looks into the camera.]]

Are you two still banned from going in there?

I'm sure the nurses will be able to heal her properly. It's a shame that something like that happened to her in the first place.

[Though at the remark about the department store, Logan rolls his eyes. Though he's linefacing pretty hard, he sounds slightly amused.]

You just had to bring that up, didn't you? I told him it wouldn't work.

[[Clearly because she is very tired and not thinking straight, Page will laugh and smile at that.]]

I'm more concerned with the fact that you went along with it, albeit unwillingly. I haven't laughed so hard in a while.

Something I shouldn't attempt, then?

[You really should be tired more often, then! The smile is nice, alright.]

I'm pleased to have amused you. [That's actually a bit sarcastic, and he gives a mock bow.] I wouldn't suggest it, no. They apparently aren't too keen on bargaining here.

[[oh will you shush]]

I got a vague impression that they aren't fond, no.

[[Logan, this is ridiculous

you're being ridiculous

she's being ridiculous]]

Well, if you and your exalted companion are interested in continuing to amuse me with your failures, I'm more than willing to observe.

[[Teasing~]]

[It really is ridiculous, but at least it's fun??

...Oh wait, they're allergic to that. Clearly it can't be fun.]

I have no doubts that my "exalted companion" will continue to attempt, but I'm quite done trying.

[Why is this so amusing?]

[[We don't say the 'F' word around here, no!!]]

Probably for the best. Be careful he doesn't try to enable you into it, however; he's a tricky one.

[[....a 'tricky' one

is that really the worst she can say

good god she's going soft]]

Anyway, whereabouts are you at present? Goldenrod?

I'm well-aware of that. He won't be enabling me into anything while we're here.

[..........hahahahaha]

Ah, no, I'm actually en route to Olivine. There is a badge I need to obtain there and one in Cianwood.

[...There's also a Reaver in Olivine, but there's no need to mention that.]

[[HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-oh wait were you serious]]

Oh, you're still going with the badge challenge? What is the gym leader in Goldenrod like, presuming you've defeated her?

[HE TRIED, OKAY!!!]

...Ah, that's right, there was one in Goldenrod...

[....................oops]

I'm afraid I completely forgot to challenge her while I was in Goldenrod. I'll have to return to challenge her later.

[[IT WAS A VALIANT ATTEMP-ok no, no it wasn't]]

How on earth could you forget? It's the biggest city in Johto; of course it has a gym.

Unless you were too tempted by the Department Store.

[[No, you are never living that down.]]
