[ Aradia looks way too cheerful when the feed comes on, considering she appears to be outdoors and in the thick of the chaos, happily in the midst of the rampaging fossil-types. A few fossil types seem to be surrounding her protectively, though - two Kabutops and a Carracosta, with two Aerodactyl in the sky.

In light of the event, everyone except her Gengar partner - who can be seen in her shadow, his grin flickering - was changed over to backup, since it seemed more fair to allow the fossil-types to join her in her explorations.

The chaos apparently bothers her not at all. ]

Isn't this fantastic? [ ...like, not a little bit, she's far too excited for that. ] All of them back from the dead...!

It can be a bit confusing, at first. Coming back from the dead, I mean! No wonder they're upset. But more importantly - aren't they fascinating? And that there's that sort of power here, to bring fossils back to life...Of course, Brock did mention the machine he uses in Pewter, but this isn't that. It's the power from one person, right? It's just fantastic.

I haven't ever managed to see some of these in person before today...! Just notes on their fossils in my books, and that sort of thing. [ And she may or may not have been out since midnight last night, when it started. Because...fossils. ] There's so much to learn before it's done!

Oh, if anyone learns anything interesting or sees anything interesting, please do tell me!! I can only watch so much of it at once. [ There's a great deal of noise off to the side, as one of the Kabutops unleashes a water attack on some approaching Kabutos. Aradia looks off to see what happened, and though she looks intrigued, she's still not concerned or upset. Just...really happy. ]

Well, I'd better go. We're helping out, for now, since it means I can explore a bit more and see how the fossil types are reacting...

Ooooh, what's that?

[ And she's out. HAPPILY. Those in Celadon can find her poking around and trying to study the rampaging hordes - or occasionally lending an assist to stopping them, although her pokentourage is more into that then she is. ]

[Well, at least someone looks happy with this whole situation.]

Are you anywhere near a beach? Some of them have been crawling out of the water the whole day, it's impressive.

[video]

[timelymaid]

[ And that news only thrills her further. ]

Really? I'm not too far away - I'm in Celadon.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

[If they're not on a rampage, Atsuro would've been more enthusiastic about it. Because fossil Pokemon coming back to life.]

Well, there's a whole bunch of rock types over here in Pewter. I assume that's because we're near the mountains.

[video]

[captainash]

You might want to take a look, then. Around Cianwood, there's weird trilobites everywhere. I had to fight off over a dozen of them to go buy lunch.

[Fantastic? Fascinating?! Absolutely not! Perona's been going absolutely crazy with all these disgusting things crawling around! Some of them looked like bugs, and she caught one crawling all over her bag right before she reached to grab it this afternoon. Oh, ow loud did she scream... Perona's voice still hurt a bit from that. And the worst thing was that these things were exceedingly hard to get rid of!]

Just what is fantastic about any of this?! There are disgusting bugs and other nasty creatures crawling around! Worst of all, Bearsy-kun and Mihawk-san aren't well equipped to dispose of them quickly...and they've already been hurt by these things! If this goes on for any longer I'll have to travel back to town, and that's such a waste. [Even if the spa in Cherrygrove was marvelous.] And what may happen to my little egg, o-or to me, if my other monsters can't protect me?! I don't want these nasty bugs crawling on me! I won't relive that nightmare again!

[video]

[timelymaid]

I'm definitely going to go and check it out...! There are so many different kinds right now, and so many of them. I never imagined this would happen when I asked about fossils the other week!

[Video]

[timelymaid]

[ EXACTLY, Atsuro! What's a little rampage when there's that, though...? ]

Rock types near Pewter - check! If you catch any, let me know if there's anything noteworthy about them. I mean, besides their existence. Maybe I should go to a bunch of different terrains...?

[ The last bit as said half to herself. ]

[Video]

[timelymaid]

They're all fossil types! Usually, they'd be extinct, right? You can barely find them anywhere...but now they've all been brought back to life! There's just so much we can learn from them! All of these once-dead creatures...!

[ Oh, but protection is sort of important... ]

...As to that, though, If you need better protection, I can lend you a higher level pokemon for however long this lasts.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

I'm thinking of catching a Shieldon, since they look rather cool!

[And Unit 01 would probably appreciate a fellow slow but powerful attacker.]

Maybe you should. I haven't went out to the routes yet, so the grasses might have some Pokemon lying and waiting. Or even the forests!

[video]

[hipstermark]

[Have a Vanille, holding a Tirtouga tightly in her grip, flailing a little - going down to Vermillion was a bright idea! (if only there weren't so many pokemon blocking digletts tunnel!!!)]
They sure missed a lot!
[Vanille comments, a smile on her lips. They slept a long time... like her! Her Yamask is also hovering there, sort-of... looking around, terrified.] Though, I wonder if Lucy knew any fossils in her time! Isn't this one just the cutest?
[...Said Tirtouga is nipping Vanilles hand.]

[voice]

[enjoymyatelier]

[...no video this time, as he thinks it'd probably be distracting.

...not for Aradia but for him because jesus is there no end to these things-]

...honestly, I don't know whether to be fascinated or frustrated by this. Oh, yes, we have all our abilities stripped from us upon arrival, but one of the natives has the ability to reanimate things that died millions of years ago and send them rampaging all over Kanto and Johto?

[...nevermind that the rampage wasn't intentional, but he's... slightly asspained at the moment...]

[tendered]

Have you founded any that you really really want to catch yet, Aradia? [ Momo's been using Sunkern to fight off the fossils, but, right now, in order to talk with her friend, she's retreated to the safety of her room... which will be breached, if the rattling in the air vent is any indication. ]

[video]

[captainash]

Maybe Sabrina heard your message and unconsciously decided to help.You're surely- Hey! Get those claws of my leg, you stupid-

[Seriously, they're everywhere. Including up pant legs.]

[Video]

[hollower]

I don't care what they are, it was better when they were extinct! These things are disgusting, skittering bugs! They're scary in the bad way, and they've injured my adorable pokemon, too. They should have stayed dead or became ghosts! Cute ghosts, so I could catch another to join the one I'll have when my egg hatches!

[Ah, that's...really tempting, but also a bit troubling, too. Perona does want protection, but she also want her pokemon to grow stronger, too. If she had her devil fruit abilities, then it'd be a whole other story! She could train her pokemon and back them up when they needed it. Her Negative Hollows would take care of these things. Besides, she never needed help before her powers were taken away! It's a slap in the face to seem so weak now.]

...No. I appreciate the offer, but I can take care of myself and my cuties. If I don't, then they won't be able to grow later, and that'll just cause more trouble for me. And I don't think Mihawk would enjoy being overlooked by a stronger pokemon, either. He's so much like that old man...

[video]

[timelymaid]

Haha, maybe...! I wouldn't complain, although I was so looking forward to hearing from that reporter.

Oh, are you okay?

[ He hasn't turned this off yet, so... ]

[Video]

[timelymaid]

I definitely will, for this! Don't you want to try to see all the types? If they're trying to "solve" this...

...I can't say it isn't past the time of those brought back, but I'd like to learn more about them as long as they're here.

[Video]

[timelymaid]

Oh, you like ghost-types, too?

[ Aradia immediately perks up. She's met so many people who don't...and her starter, the Gengar in her shadow, flickers in the background before he's right up near the screen, having hear the comment about ghosts.

He just grins, creepily. ]

That's a very good way to look at it! I'm sure you'll be fine. After all, you have your partners to look for you.

[video]

[timelymaid]

You caught one? Oh, Tirtouga are great!! I think she looks super cute!

[ DETAILS... ]

[voice]

[timelymaid]

That is a little bit unfair! Though I suppose that means that our being stripped of powers might have something to do with the arrival process? After all, natives don't go through that.

[timelymaid]

I've seen some omanyte nearer some water areas...I'm going to try to catch one of those, I think!

[tendered]

Good luck!! If I end up with something I really like or something that I think really suits you, I'll be sure to send it over to you! You're really taking this sudden invasion quite well!

[video]

[captainash]

Those pants are skin-tight, how did it reach my knee-

[Sorry, Aradia, he's a little distracted right now.]

[Video] - 1/2

[hollower]

Hm? Of course I do! I thought I had told others about that... Ghosts are one of my very favorite things, I used to control and create them freely in my world, and I even have an egg from an adorable boy that will become a little cand--

[Video] - 2/2

[hollower]

[Oh my gosh, what is that beautifully wonderful, creepy, grinning shadowbeast there? It's positively stunning! Perona squeaks with delight, her eyes lighting up with love and adoration. Oh gosh, oh gosh, oh gosh, look at how cuuuute~! ♥ Perona cups her hands together under her chin, forgetting about the prior conversation entirely.]

Aaah~! Hello there, shadowbeast! What are you doing over there, horohorohoro! Is it yours, Aradia-san? What's it called; does it have a name? It's so cute! What a nice smile you have, cutie! And the color of your eyes is so haunting! Aaah, what a precious little devil! [WIGGLES IN PLACE WITH JOYOUS ADORATION, HANDS ON HER CHEEKS NOW.]

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

I do! I can probably swing by the grassy and forest areas at least if I'm fast enough. The ocean would take me a while to get there from Pewter...

[At least by air.

...If fossil Pokemon are coming back to life, does that mean Aerodactyls as well?]

Yeah... and some of them may stay around. I know I can't be the only person around who watch to catch one of them. But these guys are out of place, time period-wise.
