punchandkiss | Seventh Viking Charge [Video]

[Astrid is sitting on a bench outside of one of the big stores in Goldenrod, looking...a bit cross. After a minute of glaring at the camera, she reaches off screen and holds up a blue and yellow guitar.]

Whoever told me you could buy axes in Goldenrod, if this is what you meant...

[Yes, she's cross!]

This is not an axe! It's some kind of music...thing. I don't know. I asked for an axe and the guy sold me this. I don't even know what to do with it! I thought maybe it was a carrying case for an axe, some kind of modern...trick.

But it's not!

[She huffs and sets her guitar back down in her lap, plucking irritably at one of the strings.]

I don't suppose anybody does know what to do with it? I bought it, I have to do something with it.

[Another pause, and then she seems to remember something.]

Oh right, also. There's a thing that teaches pokemon to fly? A disc or square or...I don't know, whatever the word is. Someone said you can use it more than once, does anybody in goldenrod have one I could borrow for a couple minutes?

The Fly HM? I could lend you mine, along with any other HM you might need. I've obtained all seven of them.

That would be great, I just need to teach it to Meatball.

Uh. There are other ones?

There are. Cut, Strength, Rock Smash, Surf, Waterfall and Whirlpool. The last three are mostly useful if you wish to travel by sea, and the others facilitate the removal of obstacles in your path. Not nearly as interesting as Fly, but they have their uses.

Oh...

But if I can fly, can't I skip most of that anyway?

You could, yes. But a lot of people enjoy walking and surfing around when they have the time.

I guess I could maybe see surfing as fun but...walking?

It's a good way of enjoying the scenery, and it's much harder to find a rare Pokémon while flying.

I guess.

Someone told me we're limited on how many we can catch though.

We are, yes. But as the limit is over fifty, I doubt you'll reach it quickly.

Oh...No.

Since I have seven.

That's a very good start. It took me nearly five months to get that many.

I only caught three of them. And my starter.

People keep sending me eggs! The last one showed up anonymously, I still don't know what it is.

There was no sender? How strange. Though that's still better than having many Pokémon because their original trainers disappeared.

No. Just a delivery bird with a big blue egg one day.

Yeah...that would suck.

...It does, truly.

[Well, this is getting depressing.]

When would you like to borrow the HM?

Whenever you have time?

I have time now if it suits you.

...Sure. I'm in front of the really big department store. If...that helps. I don't really know how to find anything else.

Good; that one's easy to reach. I should be there in ten minutes or so.

Okay. I'll...uh. wait.

[And there she sits, plucking at her guitar absently. It makes a couple neat sounds, at least.]

[She won't have to pluck very long, as Cecil arrives two minutes earlier than planned, his Clefable in tow.]

Getting any results from that guitar?

[She stands up when he arrives, holding the guitar awkwardly by the neck.]

Not really.

I have a friend who can defeat monsters with little more than music, but I have to admit that a normal axe would be easier to use.

[As he speaks, the Clefable looks through his bag, finally taking out a box and presenting it proudly.]

Ah, there they are. Thank you, Rosie.

[Astrid considers the Clefable as she waits, one eyebrow raised.]

That's what a Clefairy turns into, right?

[She fishes around in her bags and then pulls out a pokeball, holding it out so Meatball, her (kind of fat) Pidgeot appears. The pokemon bounces a few steps and then turns to peer at the three of them curiously.]

That's right. From Clefairy to Clefable, with the help of a moon stone.

[He looks through through the disks in the box until he finds Fly, which he offers to her.]

There you go. You only need to break a piece of it over your Pidgeot's head.
