[Right before most people would be heading to bed, those who check their video feeds see an indication of a broadcast/message. A dark silhouette appears on the screen. A face veiled by a full mask with pointed ears and stitches outlining the eyes. Inside her mind, she was nervous. Not being skilled with words, she had gone over what she had wanted to say in her mind, and thought back to her lessons... but she could not hesitate any longer. Without so much as moving, a voice behind the mask speaks.]

This is Batgirl. I know what I am about to say may put my search; as well as my future actions at risk. However... it has become clear to me that even with training, I know little of this world. I should not... take action on my own. So I speak to you all today to share information, as well as my help if anyone else is pursuing the same goals.

[She suddenly shifts out of frame to reveal a simple building's rooftop, where a Sableye was repeatedly striking at a Natu as it attempted to flutter out of the way. Batgirl then turns the camera back to her masked face.]

Since I arrived here, I have been training against the wild Pokemon in the area; as well as teaching the two in my care to the best of my abilities. While my own skills may be useful... it is clear that Pokemon are key in this world.

As many of you are aware, there was a group a while ago. A man with a partial mask, he spoke of liberation; but I believe their may be something beneath what he said. There was a Pokemon creature there, it had what seemed to be blades not only on its head, but also two protruding from its stomach area. It was humanoid enough that I could read it's actions; even though it looked still.

It was not the pose of a simple peaceful guard.

I have more observations. But for now I will simply ask anyone with more information about this group to please contact me. And for those like me from other worlds; I would advise caution if you encounter this group.

[And then, without any sort of formal closing, the turns off the feed. She stares up at the moon from her vantage point on the strange blue roof of the building she was using as the base of her very limited operations. She had discovered the strange building nearby was called a "Pokemon Center" and would heal her Pokemon without cost if they became fatigued, and were open all night so she could avoid suspicion. The building she was 'living on' also seemed to be a restaurant of some kind, and as such, leftover food was easy to come by, and even left out, presumably for some nearby Pokemon, at night. For now though, she waits for communications from others, hopefully communication which would lead to information she could use.]

[Same values... speeches... N should know I've had limited contact in this world...]

[She pauses, taking in most, if not all of N's message. She knows she could press for confirmation of her suspicion, but figures silence would be the best course of action, or at least... an attempt at sensitivity despite the serious threat Team Plasma seemed to be. She slowly nods and gives an almost sad look before continuing.]

N... I know everything in this world is not exactly the same as the one you knew. But I would at least like to monitor their activity. If certain events are repeating, do you know where Team Plasma will act next? [She hesitates, trying to piece together in her mind how to word her next request for information considering N's probable connection to this group.]

If so... I can search shadows easily; do you think I should attempt to confront the shadow leader you speak of?

Hmm... In my world, that same speech Ghetsis gave in this city-- Striaton-- was given in Accumula Town. After that, I believe the next course of action they took was in Nacrene City. [But he truly doesn't know what exactly they were doing there, and he's completely in the dark about the Dreamyard incident. He frowns to himself; it's shaming, how little he really knew about Team Plasma's actions, when he considered himself a leader of it.

He looks away again for a moment, thinking.] ... I think you could try. He's closed-minded, conditioned so far that he's blind to the truth. So perhaps he won't listen, but... there is a chance. After all, in my world, it was just a single trainer that gave him doubt in his own convictions.

If I encounter him I will do my best to make him listen; but from I believe for the time being it might be best for me to focus on finding Team Plasma to learn more.

[Cassandra relaxes her tone a bit, as she believes that even if N knows more, perhaps it wasn't best to press for too much. If an emergency came up where she needed more information, she could always contact him directly.]

Although there have been changes already, it might be best for me to start searching at Nacrene City if I cannot soon find any information to tell me they will appear somewhere else. Is there anything I should look into in this town while I am still here?

[He nods slowly and echoes her:] Perhaps that is best. [For all he knew, this version of his world could be N-less. He certainly hasn't met any lookalikes yet that weren't Zoruas in disguise.]

Well... Have you taken a look at the gym? You could challenge it, if that is something that intrigues you. In this world, people seem to take you more seriously if you have gym badges. [He smiles knowingly.] Perhaps you could obtain more information that way?

[Before responding, Cassandra tries to utilize the map function on the device she received upon entering this world. She accesses a basic map, and looks up the location for this "gym" in the city. A few clicks, zoom...zoom...zoom... it looked almost like this "gym" was right...

somewhat embarrassed, she opens the communication function again.]

I have... located the gym. Thank you. I will obtain the badge, see if there is any further information here, and then head to Nacrene. Are there any unmarked dangers between here and there?

[He smiles.]
Good luck to you, then! I obtained the badge myself some time ago-- Do not be afraid to ask me for advice about it. Or for a battle. I believe I'll be staying in Striaton for a few more days at least.

[He pauses as he tries to remember back to the geography around Nacrene.] Not that I know of. You need only to pass through Route 3 to get to the Nacrene City. ... Oh! It's not a danger, not is it unmarked, but Wellspring Cave in located on Route 3. It is a habitat for the Pokemon Woobat-- perhaps you'd like to see it. [He grins, remembering the portion of Cassandra's dream that involved the bat Pokemon. He pauses again.] There is also a preschool, which... I suppose could be a danger if you are unaccustomed to children?

I will have to remember the cave... and I will simply attempt to avoid the preschool. If I travel in costume I fear I may frighten the children more than they would be a danger to me.

[She pauses and tries to suppress a somewhat nervous sigh.]

As far as your offer for advice... What exactly should I expect from this battle? I have only faced wild Pokemon to help my Pokemon train, and have yet to engage a human foe. Of course I expect it to be more challenging, but could you share any specifics about the challenge of this "gym"?
