One Necessary Lie ✧ Video

[The video feature flicks on but it's completely black and is silent for a minute. Perhaps it was done on accident. But wait, no, that's not the case. There's a man's voice, unidentifiable except to those who know him. Either way, he sounds unamused.]

A world where you collect animals and let them do the fighting for you. Seems cruel. Or perhaps you just don't see it that way. Using creatures to collect ridiculous badges. What good will it do you when you leave this place? If you leave this world.

[Itachi pauses, silence fills the moment.]

How many of you still continue your own physical training as you level up your creatures? Would you be capable of taking down your enemy without the aide of your Pokemon? Would you be satisfied if you couldn't? [Yes, Sasuke. Those last two questions were specifically aimed towards you.]

It also appears that the dead walk among us. [Does he know about the other shinobi or simply referring to himself -- hard to tell. Some might not even recognize him by voice alone. So finally he shifts it around to reveal his face. Itachi doesn't have the hitae-ai sitting upon his forehead like usual and his surroundings are hard to pinpoint. The maroon cloak he's wearing doesn't help as it covers the rest of his clothes.]

[He sighs as if this is all a big bother or an annoyance.]
I suppose it's only polite to introduce myself. My name is Uchiha Itachi.

[A shinobi, huh? Interesting. Doesn't make the mind games any less irritating, though.]

Right, you're just conductin' a survey.

[If Itachi's set on convincing Yusuke that he's just asking for the hell of it, he's got another thing coming. That much is made obvious not just by the sarcasm evident in his last statement, but by Yusuke's next question, which is:]

So what's the agenda here, Mr. Mysterious? If it's not that big of a deal to you, why should it matter what anyone else does with their pets? Seems to me that most Pokemon enjoy fighting, anyway.

[In person he'd probably end up needing to dodge a punch or two. Best they never meet, really.]

You knew what he wanted. He's thirteen and has family who care here. [a snort.] Don't count on him being the kid you told to kill you because you were too cowardly to do it yourself.

It's the reason most people seem to get them! Also, the badges make your pokemon more willing to listen to you, I think? It's a sign of...competence, I suppose.

Curiosity and meowbeasts, as the saying goes!

They can do a lot of amazing things from what I'm understanding...they could probably do all sorts of things, but I can't really judge what they'd use them for until I know what their aim is. Nobody ever mentioned what their motivation is aside from stealing Pokemon.

Hmm...I don't think so! Kao-chan is a breeder and Hika-chan is a trainer, and they seem to like their jobs, and I think I like mine, too. It's like being the head of the karate club again?

[ At least, that's one way of looking at it. ]

I dunno who he is. Ended up here before I got to find out, and Shino's the only other one here who's even been in the war, so. [Yeah, they have no clue.]

Hehe, he even told me his name, too! It's Kurama. Weird, that after all those years it never even occurred to me to ask if he had an actual name..

Ah...! Before I forget, since you're new, you're eligible for a free pokemon egg from the Breeding Centre. That's not really related to badges, but.

Yes, that's the one! Although knowing this place, it's probably "curiosity killed the Meowth".

Yes! Juniors from the club I was in during school, ne. They're twins, and very fun!

Yeah, I guess. Though I thought there weren't any others.

[He looks confused, though it soon switches to a grin at the Kyuubi comment.] It's not just him, I talked to all of them! But uh.. I can't remember all of their names. [A sigh.] Should've written them down somewhere..

I'm a breeder, but even when we challenge a gym they're the ones doing the fighting, not me, so they know things about the fight that I don't. I give them advice and tell them where their opponent is if it's trying to hide from them, and Golurk can't come up with ideas for what to do in a fight other than punching so it needs me to tell it what it should do a lot, but I usually don't need to do anything but watch and heal them when they need me to.

Yeah, most of the Pokémon who are with me are pretty fast, and they often like to do fast things.

[That music... that doesn't sound like New Bark or Route 29.]

Yesterday, [she repeats, suspicious.]

How're you in Goldenrod already?
