exeggutorhead | Seventeenth Transformation [video/action for Ecruteak Pokemon Center]

[Today on Envy's 'Gear, there is a sad, worried Riolu face looking at everyone. Once it's on, Samus shifts the camera over to show Envy lying still on the bed, eyes half open and staring at nothing. Her trainer hasn't woken up yet, you guys, what if he just vanishes like her last two? So much distress here. Also in view are an extremely forlorn Tyranitar laying by the bed and taking up the entire space next to it, with his head resting next to Envy's shoulder. A Vaporeon is curled on Envy's chest, and a Luxray, Houndoom, and Arbok are all trying their very best to also fit on the bed despite collectively being about 300 pounds of giant cobra and dog and lion. It's kind of a wonder they all haven't managed to smother him yet.]

[But then, wait! Envy's head twitches to the side, and a small frown appears on his face. Seconds later, his eyes fly open and he jerks upright a few inches with a sharp intake of breath. Then he falls right back against the pillow, breathing heavily and his eyes still wide.]

..this is real?

[Chimera moves first. And for the next minute or so, all anyone would be able to see is a lot of fur and scales while Envy's pokemon loudly mob him with affection.]

HEY! Calm down all of you--Xerxes, no grooming, I've told youTAAAR [THONK] Ow, damn it Chimera be careful--

[And so on, until finally Envy manages to get them at least calm enough that he can grab the forgotten 'Gear himself. Despite his protests, though, he doesn't seem to have minded too much. He looks wary and completely worn out despite having just slept for a full week, hair going every which way even more than usual (especially the patch in front that fell victim to concerned lion grooming), and decidedly relieved to be out of those nightmares. In a moment, though, he's hidden most of that under a grin.]

Well, I'm back.

[He hesitates, very briefly.] Who else has woken back up?

[Trainer, trainer! Let me see this other Tyranit-- oof!

Riku has to practically shove his own Tyranitar out of the way when he looks at this feed. She'll respond with a sad little and then peer over his shoulder.]

Think just about everyone's waking up now.

[Chimera is interested to see another Tyranitar! He doesn't see many others around ever. So he'll rumble a friendly greeting at her over Envy's shoulder.]

Huh, guess we're lucky that this world usually has a way to fix what it throws at us.

How are the souls getting returned? [Just in case there's anyone he cares about still missing theirs.]

Has to do with beating and catching the Shedinja. I only woke up yesterday, so I've got a lot of catching up to do, but that's what I've seen people mention over the network.

[Gaia grunts, as if confirming Riku's theory. They did a lot of fighting for him, the whole team!]

Catching them? Just with Pokeballs?

Think they've got a special kind to catch Shedinja. Saw some at the Center.

[He nods.] Thanks. I'll probably go out later myself. People I know are still lost, and I want some payback anyway.

[Now that he has something that will actually work on them. Punching them before got a result that was the opposite of what he wanted.]
