[The video starts up in a bit of a Cloverfield-esque fashion, the frame rattling and swerving erratically. It seems one of the Doctor's Pokemon has gotten a hold of his Xtransceiver, judging by the soft babbling sounds and the way the screen tilts at random. However, the actual video itself doesn't seem very random; the focus is definitely on the Doctor... an uncharacteristically glum-looking Doctor, in fact. He's at Nimbasa's amusement park, as the colorful background and lights indicate, but instead of enjoying the sights, he's... sitting on a bench, watching everyone else with a very sullen, almost forlorn, look on his face.

The holder of the Xtransceiver calls out-- something like "chiko, chikorii"-- and the Doctor looks up. After a moment of silence, he chuckles lightly and offers a smile.]

Ah, c'mere. [The holder babbles happily and waddles over to her trainer's lap. She's a Chikorita, as the Xtransceiver shows in the next moment, when the Doctor takes the device from her.]

Sorry 'bout that. Newbies. [He pats the Chikorita's head with one hand and uses the other to comb through his hair. He sighs heavily and puts on a grin.] Well, might as well while I'm here... Newbies, yes! Got a pair of Grass-types now. They're rather fascinating-- this one's got vines-- prehensile vines! [Like Bulbasaur!] Bit like a Death Tree, that! Though, ah. Much less... bloodthirsty. And the other... [He readjusts the Xtransceiver to show a Roselia standing at his feet.] Look, she's got roses for hands! Isn't that brilliant?

Thought I'd call her Rose, but... That's too obvious, isn't it? Besides, she doesn't act quite like a Rose. More of a Susan. Ah, and the Chikorita-- I think that's what the 'dex called her-- I've been calling her Jenny. Those are good names, yeah? Susan and Jenny. [The Xtransceiver focuses on him again, just as the sullen frown returns. But it's gone in a second.]

Well! Just a bit of an update there! [He glances around.] Been in Nimbasa for a while... Very nice place, really, but... Might be about time to get a move on, yeah?

Though... Before I do, I have got to try out that brilliant ferris wheel they've got here! Turns out they don't let you on unless you've got a "partner". And Pokemon apparently don't count. How 'bout it, then? Anyone that's still around want to give it a go?

Well... this is certainly new.

[So says the scruffy Xatu currently being broadcasted to all your Xtransceivers. He's standing away from the screen; his own Xtransceiver is being held by a Pokemon with more capable hands: his Kirlia (though his Elgyem can also be heard babbling frantically in the background).]

... Yup. Definitely new. [He ruffles his feathers and blinks a few times before closing his left eye with a bit of a flinch.] Just brimming with... newness. Oh, this is fascinating...

[He turns to the Xtransceiver and cocks his head to one side.] Had the strangest feeling this morning-- like something was... just a bit off. Ever get that feeling? Was a bit like regenerating-- scary thought, that-- but not quite. I've been a lot of things, but a bird? That's new! [A small laugh that sounds vaguely like a squawk.]

I mean... Blimey, look at me! I've got wings! [He tries to spread his wings, but the tie caught around him prevents him. He plucks at the cloth with his beak, then looks up again.] And a beak! [A sort of frown here. Is this some cosmic joke about his nose? It better not be. He goes back to plucking at the tie, and suddenly notices something.]

Is that--? Ohh. [He's trying to examine his plumage, which is undoubtedly--] Ginger! I'm finally ginger! [Beat.] ... Well. Kind of ginger. Well. Close enough to ginger. Well. Scarlet. [He ruffles his feathers again, and goes back to struggling with the tie.]

Blasted thing... [Help a Time Lord out? Apparently, his Pokemon are a bit too stunned (or, in his Kirlia's case, entertained) by the change to help him out themselves. He sighs.] Well, while I get myself out of this little predicament... How are the rest of you feeling? I really doubt I'm the only one.

[Good evening, Unova! Care to take a gander at the network today, and... your eyes might hurt a bit. Someone is shining a blue light into the screen, from some sort of long, silver device. It is eventually pulled back, leaving a somewhat raggedy-looking man squinting at the screen. Floating just behind his shoulder is a pair of glowing green eyes-- an Elgyem.]


Is this working...? Light? [His voice is thick with an Estuary accent. The Elgyem blinks, and makes a few affirmative high-pitched sounds. The man arches his eyebrows and grins, looking fascinated.] Ah, yes, the light! Now, that’s rather simple, isn’t it? Anyways--


Hullo! I’m the Doctor. Now, can anyone tell me where exactly I am? I just turned up here-- but just me, not anything else. Don’t see how I could just turn up like that, but here I am! And “here” is certainly nowhere I’ve been before... Which is funny, seeing as I’ve been pretty much everywhere-- And there doesn’t seem to be any way out, does there? A bit troubling, that... Ah, can't be helped, I suppose. [Not until he finds the TARDIS, at least... He glances over his shoulder, finding the Elgyem. Its eyes widen in alarm, and it shies away from him, floating off-screen.]


Normally, I would just ask these things to the locals here-- but it seems this one doesn’t talk much. Just makes this sort of... blinking with her hands. Interesting sort of communication, but I can’t say it’s easy to get specifics from... So here I am! Does this get broadcasted to everyone? The signal seems to reach out to anyone that has one of these things... It's clever, very clever. Brilliant creatures, you all. Right then, I'm sure you can help answer the few questions I've got?
