First Flight - Nuvema Town Video/Action
Ah-!
[It seems as though the person who's just appeared on the feed - a short ginger man in a pilot's uniform - had been messing around with the X-tranciever and has now figured out how to make the video work... by accident. Who knows if he's ever going to be able to figure it out on purpose, then.]
Hello...? I don't suppose anyone's watching this, but I'm Martin Crieff, well, Captain, really, but since my- I mean, Carolyn's- plane isn't here right now we can skip that and just stick with 'Martin', shall we?
Well, I just arrived here, and the people back there were very helpful, but... I have to confess that I don't, actually, understand much of what they said.
So, if anyone could, you know, give me a few pointers as to what is actually going on here, that would be much appreciated. Thank you.

...Oh and pokemon. They don't all look the same, [he adds, gesturing to the crowd of dinos with him in Nimbasa. Including aRCHEOPS.]
Video
[He is obviously still adjusting.
Eyes go from screen to the ground-bound bird beside him. Then back.]
Er, by any chance do you know about this? I'm guessing that this is one of these 'Pokemon' creatures...
[He pans the camera out to show the Archen beside him.]
These two kind of look the same, don't they?
Video
[YEA ANYWAYS. Suddenly, grin.]
Oh hey! That's an archen! [Ehehehe!] 'First Bird' pokemon, similar to the archeopteryx. I'd say it's more similar to a small raptor though, [he continues.]
Archen eventually grow up into 'Archeops'; but Archen themselves can't fly.
Video
[Read: stumbled across and was disoriented for a while. Luckily, not dizzy.]
Ah- oh! Like, Icarus, then - he was the first pilot, you know, in Greek mythology, well admittedly he did burn up and die, but that... [Stops. Noticing that his own Archen isn't looking too happy about the story.]
He's just sort of, an inspiration, you know?
[Archen how are you not amazed by this already. Martin is apparently more interested in the 'first bird' and 'can't fly yet' parts than the dinosaurs, though.]
Video
...More like the first step in evolution but okay... [Ahaaa..]
So! Pilot eh? [Hoh.] Cool.
Video
What? Oh, yes! I mean, I am. The Captain. Which I suppose doesn't mean as much as when I've actually got access to a plane, but. Still. Yes.
[He is going to miss being able to fly. And fly inside a plane without the wind cutting at your face.
Even so. PRIDE.]
Video
There's an airport you might like then- Mistralton.
Video
What? Really? I haven't seen any planes so far, so I wasn't sure if there even were any. But you say...?
Re: Video
I think air traffic went down because of issues with the entralink; probably messes with any routes going over it right?
Video
[Yes, he sees it now! And, he's just figured out the map.]
Well, yes. There are any number of changes that sort of thing might make to air pressurisation and weather, and... probably other things to do with the Pokemon that I don't even know about yet. Are there weather Pokemon?
[Ask a silly question, Martin.]
Re: Video
But heck, I think science just jumps out the window with the entralink. I mean.. For one, the whole portal thing...
Video
...Ah. Yes. There is that. Makes me wonder how ATC manages with all this going on.
[With great difficulty, and a lot of help.]
Re: Video
I figure anything with that kind of serious power would be more 'legendary'... Not something you'll find around the usual route.
