[netbook] who's that pokemon?

[justacityboy]

Hey chat help me out here

1. What's the wi-fi password? My phone's internet is cooked rn
2. Since the internet's out I can't get to my Pokedex app, does anyone know what these guys are called?

[And then he doodles several cartoonish drawings of some Sticks Creatures.

And then there's a pause for a bit, and a frantically-added:]

Oh SORRY my name is Urbain!! I'm new! ✨✨✨

No wifi, sorry. There's a way to charge your phone without a charger though. Either Heimr or I can show you.

Most of the creatures here don't have any official names or titles, actually. But they're all very cute.

[justacityboy]

Thumbs DOWN on the wi-fi :(

You guys haven't named your Pokemon? Is the old guy in the store not the professor of this region??

[beathollow]

He's just a shopkeeper.

.................... Is what he says.

Are 'pokemon' the creatures native to your home?

[justacityboy]

Yeah?? Why are you talking like that's not what they're called where you're from :|

[chickenchoicejudy]

[Ryan's already had the "wtf are Pokemon" chat with him, so he doesn't have anything truly helpful to add, but he draws an arrow to the last critter.]

i dunno what it's actually called but this should be a snapple (snake apple)

[beathollow]

I think its a plum.

[chickenchoicejudy]

Wait seriously??

[A long pause while he squints at it.]

Snum? ....Pluke?

[beathollow]

When they're by the shrine it smells like plums.



Kobume.

( from cobra and ume- plum. )

[justacityboy]

Bro I hate Pluke lol. Cursed.

[infinitemist]

[ He gets the sense this one is more lost than he is ]

What even is wifi? I've never heard of pokemon either.

[justacityboy]

[ALL OF YOU??? All of you are like this?? He can't believe this place.]

It's invisible uh. Stuff. That makes the internet work. Like there are wires under the ocean and stuff and it transmits electrical signals to towers and that goes brbrbrbr somewhere and makes internet and then wi-fi. Something like that.

[infinitemist]

[ Do you realize you sound insane sir ]

I have a feeling I'll need to ask someone else for a coherent answer. I think the only term that made sense was electricity.

[justacityboy]

That's what they do though! The wires under the ocean have the wi-fi! I'm not a techspert dude I just record videos and climb buildings and stuff :////

[foreversembrace]

Bird, Rabbit, Snake. Kindof. The animals here are weird, apparently.

Unless Ain was fucking with me, otherwise I'll have to get him later.

[justacityboy]

Dunno who that is! [oh you will] Those are pretty easy names though. There's something similar to the Rabbit back in Galar called Raboot, they sort of look alike but Raboot is bipedal.

[foreversembrace]

So it was a rabbit that stood up like a person?

That sounds...

[...]

Cute. In a weird way.

[justacityboy]

Pretty much. Lots of Pokemon do that though. Like Tepig.

[Draws a Tepig. A very cartoony Tepig, sorry Till you could out-art him any day.]

Tepig evolves into Pignite which is this one. [Scribble scribble.] So he stands up. And then Pignite evolves into Emboar, who still stands up but is double the size.

[There are shitty crayon pigs all over the notebooks now, you're welcome stick and bone]

[lyricistdontmiss]

Oh dude I do NOT know but please let me know if you find out. I don't think this place has wi-fi but you never know. I am dyyyyyiiiiiiiing and so is my virtual turtle probably. I can't get his site to load, like, at ALL.

Oh, those are cute!! I'm gonna call them Toucan Samantha, Bunnybutt, and Fruit by the Foot.

Oh! Hi by the way! I'm Zoey!

[justacityboy]

Giiiiirliepop your TURTLE :( [he has no idea what a turtle is] People are saying there's no wi-fi, I think we're SOL.

[lyricistdontmiss]

MAN I knew it. Bertle the Turtle is going to starve to death.

[ancientlight]

If you do not mind me asking... What is wifi? And a Pokedex app?

Though, I also wish to ask -- are you settling in alright? I know that arriving here can be rather intimidating at first.

[justacityboy]

Oh girlll I've already been made fun of for explaining wi-fi badly :/ I don't actually know how to explain it but it's wires under the ocean that connect to cellphone towers and electricity and somehow there's wi-fi in that, I don't know. Some conspiracy theorists think that wi-fi and 5G and stuff give you mega giant brain diseases, which isn't true tho

The Pokedex app is just an encyclopaedia of Pokemon! Kind of like a dictionary. for Pokemon. Which is what an encyclopaedia is. [thanks]

Yeah bestie thanks for asking I'm doing okay! I'm not feeling alone or anything, people are super friendly, and that cafe with the curry by the river SLAPS.

[ancientlight]

( Ah, what a friendly person... )

I see... I am at least familiar that these devices are similar to phones, yet I am unfamiliar with that process being used here. Perhaps that is for the best if it's potentially dangerous.

Despite the dangers this world brings, it is easy for one's spirits to lift with how friendly others here are. I'm grateful that you've found help! If there's anything else that you need, please do not hesitate to let me know.

But, I must admit... this is the first I am hearing of Pokemon as well.

[itisa]

[Oh, you wanted something useful, Urbain? Sorry, no, but the sticks creature doodles get a new buddy in the form of one of the saja friends, though.]

[justacityboy]

[Draws an arrow pointing to the drawing]

This is super cute!! :D
