[Today, a well-dressed man with a lovely black boa is gracing your screen, network. He's lounging in a PokeCenter near a window. The sun's just about to finish its descent, so it's practically night time. Apparently someone's about to turn in after a day full of training! Maybe...?]

Ah, there we are. Hello.

I've only been here for a little under a week, and I simply must ask...has anyone else here been dealing with a large difference in technology from their own world?

[He begins to play with a Pokeball in between the fingers of his free hand.]

You see, I am a doctor, and I've found that many of my healing techniques have been rendered useless because of the difference in technology here. However, there seems to be a machine that heals the monsters in a similar fashion... [Suddenly a frown crosses his face.] Unfortunately, the nurses here were reluctant to to divulge how it works.

[He shakes his head, pretty disappointed about it.]

A pity, that. I certainly hope we humans aren't being put on the back burner when it comes to healthcare. I'll have to look into it further.

But I digress. Please, feel free to tell me your technology woes. If you happen to have more information about healthcare in this world, feel free to bring that up as well. I would be very interested to hear about it.

[He gives a small half-bow from his resting position, and before ending the feed...]

Do have a good night.

[Private to the Rocket frequency]

[The boa-clad man appears again, this time in a location more familiar to members of Team Rocket: a dreary and nondescript dorm room in the base. He's propped himself up against a table in the dorm room, smirking softly into the camera.]

Good evening. I've been here long enough that I believe a proper introduction is in order.

My name is Rideaux. As you may have seen on my entry earlier, I am a doctor. I also have plenty of field experience, though I cannot say I'm very used to relying solely on others to fight for me.

[He's referring to his Pokemon, which can be seen in the background beside his bed. The Zangoose and Houndour don't look overly pleased but they're not miserable or anything.]

Aside from an introduction, I'm addressing you with a question. Does anyone have any idea how we are here? Since I am well aware that I am not the only one who was whisked from my own world to this one; I've discussed this with a couple other members but haven't found any useful information thus far.

I'm not complaining about it—trust me, this is an improvement to an extent, and whoever did this had good taste for choosing to use my services—but I'm curious how it was done.

[Much like he did in his previous video, he gives that little bow. But this time he flashes a sort of sinister smirk into the camera.]

That said...ultimately, I look forward to working with you all. I do hope this organization is as fun as it sounds.

It was never exactly my area of expertise. I was a singer there.

I know it was a fairly complicated process, one I suppose we all took for granted.

[Don't worry, Joker doesn't need any interest. He just needs someone who doesn't know better than to hang up on him.]

Entertainment~. Ta be specific, I run the Eve's Garden Circus over in Goldenrod.

Oh, of course. Where are my manners?

[Absent, because he really doesn't have any.]

You may call me Cobra Commander.

[Oh ew, you make medicines? That's like...the complete opposite of destruction! Laaaame.

...however, he will admit that that sort of thing is pretty important in the grand scheme of things, so.]


I'd also be questioning how in-demand medicine is amongst Team Rocket...I'm not quite sure if it's something our superiors would like us to focus on.

[...although...]

Unless you're willing to branch out a little bit, when it comes to chemical concoctions.

[ He may be a kid but he's already a certified doctor scuse you. Besides, it pays well enough. ]

It doesn't look that common. There's a significant difference in how many people we treat versus the number of Pokemon that come in. And even then, it's usually been situational at best: My mawile bit me or my charmander accidentally burned my hand.

It's pretty surprising. Either that or we've just been lucky.

[...she'd miss it anyway, so...]

Well, I've heard that you might be able to go to a certain place to do it... but for the really complicated stuff, we needed to get help from a goddess! I have no idea how it's going to turn out because... haha, I got interrupted. But I think I'm going to see if I ever get sent home!

...and wow, that must be some pretty complicated stuff! What all does it... do, exactly? The stuff you had back home but isn't actually here. I mean, this Pokegear thing and the stuff in the Pokemon Centers already blows my mind, so I guess I'd better steel myself!

At least ya actually now what one is. Ya would be amazed at how many folks don't. It was practically a travesty!

It's definitely taking a lot more... planning and preparation for worst case scenario. I arrived here in a dress with feathers while it was pouring, so I think I've learned my lesson on not being prepared.

[...so much killing, Rideaux.

...or at least there would be, if it wasn't for Those Damn Protagonists! You know the ones.]


Honestly, with your sort of knowledge you'll probably find yourself in high demand from both the Field and Science departments...you may have the pick of the litter, so to say.

I'd recommend Science, of course, but that's because I'm not really cut out to be a field agent. Far too much work for little reward.

[ Nah. He's not that charitable. Business is business. ]

It is. Despite the change of seasons, it doesn't seem like people get all that sick here.

[ As for the question of payment... ]

They pay volunteers by the hour so it really doesn't matter how many patients come around. If there aren't enough humans to tend to, I help with the pokemon.
ajustcaws: (no matter how far)

[personal profile] ajustcaws 2014-09-21 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I've heard some other people talk about... maybe doing it? Kind of? Or at least knowing it can happen, anyway, even if it's really, really hard.

Which... kinda makes sense to me.

[...she cocks her head a bit!]

Ah, okay! So it's kind of like technology and magic together? That does sound like a winning combo. You can do other things than healing, right?
