[Strange how this guy hasn't made a post in forever; the communicator sure remembered and gave him a nice shock for his troubles.]

I get it already: didn't use you so paying for it.

[He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, glad that he wasn't affected by the pollen going around. Actually, he and his ponyta were working on another little project and this post is a main reason to make it known.]

So if anyone remembers me saying that I was working on a dojo here in Dissimulo, I just finished up the last details. If anyone is looking for a sparring place or wants some lessons in defending, the doors at the high school gym are open.

This is going to sound really odd but...does anyone know any good spots for a date?

It is good to see that people are improving themselves by taking martial arts here. I myself don't need such assistance as I train myself along with my dragon pokemon, so I keep myself physically fit. As I am relatively new here though, I was wondering if you might be able to answer some questions for me.

[kungfublackfrog]

[You sound a little cocky but sure, he'll bite.]

Sure, go ahead and ask.

[dragons_lance]

There are many things I'd like to know, but I suppose what takes precedence is knowing where Dissimulo is, and what has your communicator done to you?

[kungfublackfrog]

[...Kresnik may have found a bro.]

Dissimulo's in the country south of Discedo. It'll be two hours to get here from the subway.

As for the communicator, they have a nasty habit of shocking people when they don't use theirs after awhile.

[dragons_lance]

[I know right?]

I see... so this place has an operational subway too... I wasn't sure how many cities in this world were still inhabited either. Do you know if there are more cities like this one spotted across this planet? Or if the only ones are in relatively close proximity to Discedo?

Hmm... I'll have to remember to keep communicating then. It seems odd that they would put in such measures to keep people socializing with one another, so perhaps the devices serve another purpose as well.

[kungfublackfrog]

There's Spero to the west; it's mostly abandoned as of now except when a bomb fallout came and people had to leave.

[dragons_lance]

A bomb?! Like a nuclear bomb?!

[kungfublackfrog]

Know any others that can make a mushroom cloud?

[dragons_lance]

Possibly... this is another world after all, so the technology could be completely different in that respect. I couldn't be completely certain, from just you suggesting there was fallout.

Why would they set of a nuclear bomb?

[kungfublackfrog]

If you find the answer, let me know. The scientists create more questions than answers.

[Translation: no idea.]

[dragons_lance]

I see... so there are still many mysteries of this place to be discovered. Regardless, I appreciate your assistance in this matter, thank you. What is your name?

[kungfublackfrog]

It's Adam. What about you?

[dragons_lance]

You can call me Lance the Dragon Trainer!

[kungfublackfrog]

Dragon trainer?

[dragons_lance]

I am a pokemon trainer, specifically specializing in the training of dragon pokemon.

[kungfublackfrog]

Pokemon...hey, do you know someone named Cynthia by any chance?

[dragons_lance]

It seems quite a few people here know Cynthia. She is a highly respected pokemon trainer in my world, and the pokemon league champion of the Sinnoh region. I am the pokemon league champion of the Kanto/Jhoto region. I would say she is easily my equal when it come to pokemon training.

[kungfublackfrog]

So she definitely knows her stuff.

[There's a small neighing sound in the distance: Flicka the ponyta is there as well.]

[dragons_lance]

She does indeed, I would highly recommend her for if you wished to learn more of pokemon.

Was that... I can't be certain as this is in fact another world, but was that a ponyta I heard just now?

[kungfublackfrog]

You mean Flicka?

[The mentioned ponyta is now shown on the screen.]

[dragons_lance]

Is that your ponyta's name? It's really quite cute. I remember China mentioning he had gotten his Milotic when he had gone on a mission, did you get Flicka much the same way?

[kungfublackfrog]

Yeah, it was during an exploring trip I led a couple months back. Remember the more questions than answers thing I said earlier? That was one of them.

[dragons_lance]

I see... so their motives for this are still a bit of a mystery?

[kungfublackfrog]

Pretty much so.
