Introductory log! Welcome to the World of Pokemon!

WHO: You, and all of you!
WHERE: Vaniville Town!
WHEN: October 28th, morning-time
WHAT: Welcoming party time!

It doesn't matter what you were doing before. How you felt, how things were. Wherever you were, it's gone. A flash of light engulfs your vision and you may instinctively shield your eyes. But nothing is shining at you. Your vision is just gone. Poof. In the literal blink of an eye, there's nothing but darkness.

You try to move, but you're frozen in place. You try to make a sound, but nothing comes out. Eventually, you feel like you're turning, flipping, tumbling... and suddenly a feeling of dizziness washes over you. Slowly, your vision begins to return to you, but everything's blurry.

Eventually, it starts clearing up, and you realize you're not in ~~Kansas~~ wherever it was you were before now. Or doing whatever it was you were doing.

But you're not alone. There seem to be many others near you. All of them have one thing in common, however; there seem to be creatures floating or sitting around the entire group. One is likely looking at you with a confused face, as if it was wondering why you were just standing there. Hey, you're just as confused as the creature is, you wager.

The city you're standing in doesn't seem quite so large; in fact it looks more like a Town. And you're definitely in the middle of a small plaza. A few houses line the area, and it looks like some were newly built sometime recently. In fact, it looks like the entire town has gotten some renovations, though this may not be entirely obvious.

What is obvious, however, are the many white-shirted men and women approaching the entire group, giving you and the others puzzling looks, as if you all were specimens they had never seen before. Eventually, one of them stepped forward, and smiled.

"Hello, everyone! Professor Sycamore sent us to welcome you all to the region of Kalos. The town you are standing in right now is Vaniville Town. We're happy to answer any questions you have right now; my fellow Aides and I will make sure you are all taken care of.

"First, however, it seems most of you have come from different places and times. I think it would be best if you introduced yourselves. Afterwards, we will equip you with the necessary items to enjoy your time here. And we will then answer any questions you have for us. Any at all." He looks over to another Aide for the moment, before turning back to the group. "And as for how we knew you would be here, well, we do have someone watching for any distortions in space-time. In layman's terms, something unknown has brought all of you here, and none of you are the first to arrive here in such a fashion... you're just the largest group to appear thus far."

Well, may as well introduce yourself to all these new (and possibly strange) people. You certainly will have a lot of questions for the Aides.

Option A
[Clive had arrived laying on the ground, seemingly unconscious. His pokemon, a Mawile was standing close by his body, almost as if she was guarding him. She certainly became wary of those who approach. Perhaps she be less hostile if people can convince her that they weren't a threat and want to help.]

Option B
[After Clive was back on his feet, he could be seen wandering through the crowd, his steps uneven as if he was still disorientated. Mawile followed closely behind him, uncertain of her trainer's condition or what to do. His mind was filled with so many thoughts, how everything he had planned out for years to exact revenge had crumbled, how he was sure he should have died back there and yet here he was, still breathing. Why? So he could live with the fact he failed? Yes, that must be his punishment for trying to rid the corruption and punish those who hide behind their power over society. Ha.

While this was going on, Clive wasn't fully paying attention to where he was walking and will likely bump into someone by accident.]

Oh, pardon me. I wasn't watching where I was walking.

It happens to the best of us.

(Why yes, that was an Espeon he almost tripped over and no, he wasn't imagining that voice being beamed directly into his head. Telepathy is weird, but at least this Pokemon seems friendly enough.)

[She--wait what? That was more than just saying their own name.]

Ah...was that you who just spoke? Through my mind? [It was rather discomforting to have someone suddenly invade his head like that, but it derailed him from his previous thoughts at least.]

Not to worry; I'm keeping out of your thoughts....unless you'd prefer that, of course.

(Yeah, she's definitely the culprit. She's not going beyond teasing him, though.)

...I'd appreciate it if you didn't. [You don't want to see his thoughts. They're not exactly rainbows and sunshine.]

Pardon my initial response. I've never exactly had a conversation in this manner before, nor was I aware Pokemon could communicate this way.

[Mawile in the meantime will be watching Kreutzer from behind Clive.]

I understand; telepathy is highly irregular for non-psychic types. Some psychic types are capable of telepathy and regular speech, but Espeons prefer one over the other.

(Which is pretty obvious by now.)

I am Kreutzer.

I see...thank you for informing me, Kreutzer. [Lacking his hat, he gave a small bow.]

You can call me, Clive. [For a second he nearly called himself Luke after being called by that name for some time.] And, well if it wasn't obvious before, I'm not exactly familiar with Pokemon. In fact, Pokemon do not exist where I'm from.

That's alright; there are many worlds that lack Pokemon, but it's easy to adjust. Simply imagine wildlife of your world, give them sentience and more power than they should have and voila. Pokemon.

(You'd think that was a joke, but this is a mental conversation with a purple cat.)

R-Right....[He can't really deny it if he wanted to.]

You sound like you've had some previous experience with traveling to other worlds.

Kotoha approaches slowly, speaking in a soothing manner.

"Hello there, Mawile - is this your Trainer? My name's Kotoha, and I know a little first aid; may I help him?"

"Maaa...." Mawile answered with a low growl. Her back was to Kotoha, showing her giant steel jaws at her instead.

She was taking a moment consider what Kotoha said, trying to gauge if she was a threat or not. Slowly but surely, she would finally move aside, her steel jaws still aimed at Kotoha though, just in case.

Clive was laying on his side, faintly covered in ash and dust. He had a bruise on his forehead where the loose pipe had hit him before he arrived here. Other than that, he didn't seem to have any other injuries.

Hmm. Kotoha will just keep up a running narration for the benefit of the obviously touchy Mawile as she looks him over.

"Okay...pulse is fine, no bleeding, nothing's coming out of his ears...nasty bump on his head; better do something about that..."

She pauses to address the Mawile directly.

"Okay, he's mostly fine, it looks like. Now, he's got a pretty nasty bruise there, but I can fix it up. It's going to look a little strange, but he won't be in any danger - you have my word as a Pokemon Trainer."

Concentrating, she summons her Persona and casts Mediarahan.

Eventhough Kotoha gave her word, Mawile still let out a yell when her persona suddenly appeared out of thin air. Frozen in shock to retaliate, Kotoha's persona was able to use mediarahan uninterrupted.

Clive felt this warmth and his strength returning. The throbbing pain on his forehead was lessening as he started to regain consciousness. The world was a blur to him at first when he finally opened his eyes. A few blinks and he could see he was laying in grass.....grass?

"What...?" He said quietly out of confusion and to no one in particular.
"Mawile!!" His Mawile on the other hand took it as her trainer was going to be ok and moved to stand in his view, which did nothing more but startle Clive. Immediately Clive sat up, eyes widen and became more attentive. What in the world was he looking at?

Kotoha will just keep Mitra deployed - the mystic defenses she's afforded by that are significant and better safe than sorry with belligerent Steel-types.

"Hello, sir! You took a nasty blow to the head, it looked like, so I healed you. Are you feeling better?"

"I..." He pressed a hand against his head. His mind felt numb from the initial shock.

"I suppose I am well enough. Thank you." He sounded dazed and disorientated. He had questions, but he wasn't sure where to start. Something wasn't right though. How long was he out if it was already daylight? How was he even alive?

"How long was I out? And what is this....this creature?" He hadn't forgotten the Mawile still staring at him. It wasn't anything he had ever seen before, so how could he forget?

Ah, how nostalgic! It feels just like helping out the newbies back in Hinoto-Ri!

"I'm not sure on the duration if it started before you arrived here, but...I'd say no more than...oh, five or ten minutes from our sudden arrival? As for the little one, it's a Pokemon - they're the native flora and fauna of this world. Yours is what's known as a Mawile."

Her response led to more questions than answers.

"This...is mine?" He said as he stared with surprise at Mawile. Mawile simply nodded, proudly pressing a hand against her chest.

"Mawile!" She seemed happy Clive finally recognized her as his pokemon. He frowned, still not sure if he fully understood this. He looked around at his surroundings. It looked like he had woken up in a small town, rural and definitely not London.

"You said 'our sudden arrival'. Other people have appeared in the same manner?"

Nod nod.

"Aside from the people in lab coats, all of us here fell out of a rift in time and space."

[Hinata has a whole lot of things on his mind himself, so he likewise is not paying attention to what's going on around him. He's startled out of his thoughts when he suddenly bumps into Clive and is about to apologize, but the other beats him to it.]

N-No, it's okay... I wasn't really paying attention either.

[He then holds his hand out for a handshake. This is a pretty awkward way to meet someone, but he should still introduce himself, right?]

Um... I'm Hajime Hinata.

[It took Clive a second to register he wanted a handshake, in which he does return.]

It's Clive, a pleasure meeting your acquaintance, Hajime. Are you from around here, or were you brought here as well?
