babel_hacker | DAY 50 - [Video] | [Action] Celadon Department Store

[Sometime today in Celadon Department Store...

Going into the toy section with his Klefki was, while not the worst, probably among the Top 10 bad decisions Atsuro Kihara have ever made in his life. Maybe the Top 15, at most.

So anyway, he's looking into the toys area because December is next month, which means Christmas! While it's early for Christmas shopping, Atsuro does like looking at toys. Some things are the same, or familiar but very much Pokemon-fied and others he didn't know was a thing. Plus, some of his Pokemon like the toys. It's a nice way to destress from shopping for other things in the store.

While he's distracted, his Klefki spy a shelf full of toy keys and floated over towards it. He started looking through them eagerly until...he accidentally made things fall from this shelf during his rummaging. Oops.]

Eh? [That caught Atsuro's attention easily, and he turned around to see...his Klefki continuing to search through the pile of toys, boxed or not, on the ground.] What the--Mutex!?

-

[A while after that, the PokeGear's screen shows a Klefki looking rather pleased with himself and jingles his new keys so happily.]

...Guys, just keep a close eye on your Klefki while you're out shopping, or else you'll have to deal and possibly pay for the damages. [All of these keys come from different toys why.] Otherwise, you're basically stuck with them like this.

And please tell me yours have... [Not-toy keys? Real keys?] ...other type of keys beside these ones they get attached to.

[He feels like he jinxed himself with this back in September during a discussion.]

[Oh no, that's so cute...]

Heheh...they do look very happy with those keys, don't they?

...Do these plastic keys even do damage in battle, or are they as useful as they look?

[Priorities. Ash has them.]

Yeah. Mutex looks like he really likes them enough to keep them. And possibly carry them around with him, too.

...They can distract the enemy long enough to land a free hit?

[Probably.]

I guess an opponent can't attack if they're too busy laughing at the ridiculousness of the situation, but I'm not sure the locals would consider that a legal strategy.

[...Then again...]

I guess plastic toy keys are just as good as the real thing. I think they're cute.

Right. The only thing I have to worry about is the keys getting damaged or broken. Since they're made of plastic instead of metal.

Well, the locals generally do care about and take the Pokemon's opinions into account... So they might let this go.

Mhm! Though I guess these ones can be pretty easily replaced if that happens, right?

You know, here I thought those things couldn't get more ridiculous.

[And then the world proved otherwise.]

Guess I was wrong about that one.

Generally speaking, if you think it won't get any weirder...they will find a way. Either because of this world, the culture or just the Pokemon themselves.

[Just roll with things, man. Until they show something so...simple yet silly like this.]

Right! I think I can cover buying replacements, as long they didn't break too often.

!!!

THAT IS A
K L E F K I

YES YES YES

WE HAVE
D A T A
ON HIM NOW !!!

HELLO KLEFKI

...Now I'm starting to wonder what a battle between two of the would be like. Hilarious, I bet.

I'm sure they will be very protective of those keys, though. I don't think you'll have to worry too much.

Yeah. Especially once they get stronger and know some good moves to use in battle. I think Mutex's likely to use and learn ranged attacks, unless he like slamming into his opponent.

A battle between Klefkis?

...Think they would jingle their keys to prove their superiority?

[Atsuro saw the message and reads it out for his Klefki. Mutex jingles (what was it for plastic keys, anyway?) and say hello back.]

Hello! Yes, I'm a Klefki! Look at my new keys!

[Atsuro's smiling and trying not to chuckle.] Yep, he's a Klefki, fella.

HELLO KLEFKI
H E L L O

YOU HAVE LOTS OF KEYS !

DO YOU MAKE THEM
J I N G L E
TO SCARE OFF ATTACKERS

???

Maybe they'd have to unlock the most door within a certain time limit instead, to showcase their collections.

So do they actually fight with their keys?

Yeah, I've noticed that, but that keyring you've got there is uh...something else. I mean I've got one but it hasn't managed to put together a collection like that.

[Probably because he hasn't taken it out of its ball since he got it.]

Edited 2014-11-17 01:55 (UTC)

[That is a weird looking animal.]

Does it collect anything that vaguely resembles a key?

[That's equal parts cute and equal parts strange.]

Mutex knows this Fairy Lock move, but they don't actually hit people with their keys. There's Tackle, but almost every Pokemon knows it.

Well, that contest's already unfair because of certain types of keys.
