When it comes to such simple matters...

[July 21st. That was Gold's birthday. At least, back home it was. In Luceti... It didn't really matter. It was a fact only a few of his friends in Luceti knew, and he doubted any of them would try and throw him a party or anything of the sort. Just didn't seem their style.

...He didn't want to be reminded he was 15 in Luceti now, anyway.

With a click, the journal turns on.]

...So, anybody know anything about remodelin' houses? Mine's gettin' pretty cramped now and I'm runnin' out of couches to throw everyone on. I'd rather not have to kick half these guys out, 'cause I kinda like havin' them around, y'know? Just add a second floor, or maybe even a basement'll do!

Geez... This house ain't meant to hold this many people...

[A pause, and then...]

...So, hey! Here's a question. What kinda things you guys like to do in the summer for fun? Me, I'm pretty big on hittin' my skateboard and goin' for a ride! I could also totally go for a trip to the beach, though. Summer's half-over and I haven't even gone once yet!

Hey, I gotta ask you somethin'.

[It's been a week since his group and so many others had returned from the Southern Farmlands... Since they returned from the heat of war. Some people died out there, both friend and foe, and many more were injured. Of course, Gold knows that all too well. Masaomi broke his ankle out there, and Gold's been accommodating him in his house ever since they got back.]

So, everyone's holdin' up alright after last week, right? Man, between that and that damn experiment, February was way too busy for my tastes.

But... You know, part of me really kinda misses that place we were stayin' in for the battles now. A sweet room with anything we could possibly ask for, and a giant robot to fight in? Hey, if goin' back there means gettin' all that back, then sign me up already! Sure beats this dump, at any rate.

[And now for some conversations directed at certain people. Fuck yo' filters, he doesn't need them.]

...Speakin' of, they... didn't let you keep Gurren Lagann, huh, Simon? ...Oh, and, uhh... Oi, Mikado, Frey. I got a proposition for you two, if you're willin' to listen.

....So, do you guys do Halloween in this place? You know, parties, costumes, trick-or-treating, thrills and chills? The whole nine yards! So, somethin' happens here for it, riiight?

[Filtered to Silver]

Hey, Silver, you lookin' for a battle? I found a guy who needs to be put in his place, and you're the man for the job.

[Filtered to Ash]

Yo, Ash! You're ready for that battle, right? The stage is set, and your opponent's good to go!

I got something to say, so listen up.

In my world, there are these creatures, called Pokemon. There are all kinds of them, and we live alongside them, helpin' each other.

Me and my friends, we're called Pokemon Trainers. We capture these guys, and train and raise them as our partners, workin' together to do all kinds of things! It's really cool, and there are tons of trainers back home!

But that's not the point! You see, yesterday, my bud Red and I, we found some of our Pokemon here! So, you see, we're thinkin' maybe some of our others will show up too! How about some of you help us keep an eye out for them? It doesn't take much to recognize them; they don't look like the animals here at all. If you see one of them, please don't attack it! Just let us know where it's at. They can be dangerous when attacked, and believe me, you do not want to be on the receiving end of a Typhlosion's Flamethrower!

If you really need to know what they look like, I'll, uhh... I'll ask Yellow to draw some pictures of them. So, uhh... Thanks.

[Much later, he links Yellow's entry, depicting the Pokemon.]

[Action]

[Following that announcement, Gold (hopefully along with his housemates) can be seen behind House 33, next to the river, armed with a shovel as he digs away in the ground, a green frog-thing, a blue muscly tadpole-like thing, and a large brown rat watching them. Dirt gets tossed to the side with every stroke, the creatures watching patiently, as if waiting for something.]

((So, as stated, your characters are free to help them locate their Pokemon at any point. We've got it planned out which ones are going to appear, so if you'd like to help, just message one of us and we'll let you know what you can do. We've got a lot to find, after all, so don't be afraid to ask!))
