babel_hacker | Day 44

[After the prom, Atsuro used the Ace Trainer’s services to return to Goldenrod to pick a few things up from the department stores. Other than equipments and references he needs for programming, he also pick up a Dubious Disc to study. He’s been planning on taking a look into its contents, but he haven’t save up enough until now.

Not when he’s also saving up money for a possible investment into a house for himself and his Pokemon.

It’s after he take a good look into the Dubious Disc and dig in as much as he can, that he typed up a post to the network.]

Did anyone else look at what’s inside the Dubious Disc? The data inside is what cause Porygon2 to evolve into a Porygon-Z via trading. Which isn’t all that strange, since the Porygon line are made of data.

So I looked inside and I found some weird stuff. I’m wondering if anyone else can confirm it as well, or I lucked out in getting a weird copy to study.

Because I don’t know what to think about finding this inside. Or what looks like a bunch of familiar looking memes, just Pokemon (which is somehow both surprising but not really). So I’d appreciate your input on this.

Also, does anyone want a Dubious Disc? I can’t use it since Fortran’s fully evolved.

[Thanks for that, mysterious kidnapper.]

...And if you're also raising a Porygon-Z, mind if I ask you about the evolution process and results? Thanks.

I would ask "what are the odds"...

But let's be real, the odds are pretty good.

They're not even odds anymore, they're a certainty.

Isn't there a law about that? The lower the odds, the more likely they'll come true in practice?

If there isn't, there should be.

Someone should start hypothesising it, sound all scientific and give it a name to make it sound serious.

You'd have to find someone willing to test the hypothesis, though. Who would be that foolhardy?

Well, like they said. There's all sorts of people in the world.

True. You just need to find them, which is usually the hard part.

That's true. But here, we have a lot of time to look for them.

Assuming you didn't get randomly sent home, of course.

Can you imagine finally finding a suitable person, only to be sent home in the middle of your first conversation? The frustration would kill anyone, if it wasn't for the amnesia.

That would be both the most frustrating and historic moment ever.

...Actually, did anyone observe someone going home the moment it happens?

Not as far as I know, but it could be such a traumatic experience that people refuse to talk about it.

...Saying that only makes me kind of want to see it for myself. Surely it can't be that bad?

One moment you're talking with someone. The next second you're all along. Honestly, that sounds creepy as hell.

Yeah.

Actually, if they just suddenly disappear like that without any trace, that would probably add to my MMO world theory.

Who would have the money and time necessary to make such a lifelike game, though? I mean, I don't see any of us be limited in our animations, or something like that.

A very bored, curious or eccentric and very rich person. Possibly all of the above. Having their own group or corporation backing it up would be a bonus.

That's such a waste, though. With that sort of backing you could further any goal that's more practical.
