Day 23 - [Video] | [Action] at Azalea

[babel_hacker]

That’s an easy win.

[’sup, Johto and Kanto. How are you this fine day. Well, other than that random hail last Tuesday. God, what’s with that random hail in the middle of spring.

Anyway, this is Atsuro in front of the Azalea Gym. Holding the Hive Badge in his hand, with his large Arcanine sitting next to him.]

Then again, that’s what I get for solo-ing Bugsy with Pascal.

[Pascal give his trainer a look. C’mon, Atsuro, he want a good challenge.]

So that means I got all eight badges in Johto! Here’s hoping Kanto will give me a better challenge. I think most of my team are getting edgy from the lack of good challenges.

...Huh, I got all eight badges in less than a year. With all that time passing, I guess it’s pretty normal here.

[Oh yeah, he’s been here for almost a year... Atsuro would hit his first anniversary in a few weeks.]

So, everyone! What’s the Kanto gym leaders are like? I know about Sabrina, but what about the others?

(OOC: Mod approved badge get~)

Surf east... [Guess who's considering it.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

In theory, that should lead to Kanto. Unless the road turns north or south...

[video]

[babel_hacker]

If it ever go off course...I could just keep going to see where it leads. Otherwise, I'll have one of my flying Pokemon with me.

[video]

[paladinlost]

You'd also need to prepare adequate supplies, of course.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Yeah. Plus being prepared for what kind of weather that route might have.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Sandstorms, I've no doubt. We've not had those yet; there has to be a few of them somewhere.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Sandstorms...I got a pair of goggles on me, but I don't want to deal with sandstorms. [Ugh. Imagine travelling in one.] Johto doesn't have any big deserts for us to worry about that.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Neither does the part of Kanto I've seen, but that still leaves quite a stretch of land. There might be one there.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

I don't remember any deserts from the games, but they probably don't know how to depict it back then.

[video]

[paladinlost]

How hard can it be to depict sand?

[video] in which I start BSing

[babel_hacker]

The technology back then is pretty basic with how it depict backgrounds with colours and pixels. The game's full enough with Pokemon and data for everything else.

[video] *applauds*

[paladinlost]

So those games are nothing more than an approximation of the original world? I thought they all looked like the real thing, like those television programs...

[video]

[babel_hacker]

It's possible to make them look realistic, but it'll take a lot of time and effort. And the best technology, which can cost a lot of money.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That's a shame. Many of this world's subtleties must have been lost with the lack of details.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Yeah... Which is why I can't wait to make my way over to Kanto. [Walking on the streets and seeing the buildings can't compare to 2D pixels.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

You'll enjoy the sights, I've no doubt. The road north of Cerulean is particularly lovely.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

I'll watch out for it. Thanks for the suggestion!

[paladinlost]

You're welcome. I hope the next part of your journey will be as interesting as the first.
