Oh yeah, almost forgot I even had this thing. Sorry for the radio silence, just had my nose buried in literature from Kalos. Are you guys seeing this shit? Things are getting weird over there.

Anyways, I realized a lot of new kids showed up in the lengthy time since my last network post, so I'll just go ahead and reintroduce myself. Green Oak, boys RA/TA. When I'm not vaguely tending to hormonal brats, I'm Viridian City's Pokemon Gym Leader. My gramps is a professor of Pokemon studies. I Hail from Pallet Town. Charmed, I'm sure.

I guess the greeting extends to the new teachers, too. If you need me to sub for your class or help out or something, I'll get paid for it, so I'll do it.

I have a Venusaur, a Charizard, a Jolteon, and a Gengar with me on campus, all in various stations in the school. They're the better team, and I'll hear no arguments about it. I'm sure we'll all be the best of friends.

[Private to Blue]

So... Kalos, eh?

[It took him a long time to do it, but one evening Green finally forced himself over to Red's dorm, three quiet knocks the only sign that he was there.]

[He just stares at Red for a moment in silence, before finally crossing his arms and averting his eyes.]

... So. That note.

[action]

[rivalappeared]

...

[He bites his lip in frustration.]

So, is your room mate home? Are you going to invite me in, or just leave me standing here in the hallway like an asshole?

[rivalthunderbolts]

Damn right we are.

[rivalappeared]

Not that they wouldn't be able to tell right away, but I thought I'd just give everyone a nudge in the right direction.

[rivalthunderbolts]

Good idea. Never hurts to remind the lessers how great we are.

So, you're reading over cool stuff about Kalos, huh? Mind if I come by and read over your shoulder?

[magicdancer]

SOMEONE'S pretty full of himself!

[rivalappeared]

It's not narcissism if it's true, lady.

[magicdancer]

True heck, all I've heard so far is talk! I'm waiting to be impressed!

[jonny_talbain]

Kalos. All I know about it is that it's a Pokémon region with a lot of history. A few wars under it's belt, a royal family fallen into something like disrepair and a great sodding tower that lights up like Christmas somewhere in the middle. Not seen many books on it in the Library, though. What have you been reading?

[rivalappeared]

Just what Gramps has been sending me. Guess the professor's doing some interesting work. That tower... it's pretty impressive.

[jonny_talbain]

It's a little garish for my tastes, but to each their own.

[He thought the Eifel tower was bad enough - a similar structure that lit up was taking things a bit too far. They could at least stick a big clock on it to make it a USEFUL eyesore.]

I take it the place is worth a visit for trainers?

[reservedempath]

[She's not about to interject about who's better than who, honestly. More or less, she's interested in something else he has to say.]

Kalos? What is that?

[rivalappeared]

A region. Pretty far from Hoenn.

[reservedempath]

I've never heard of it. I suppose that's one more I ought to add to my list of potential visits. Were you thinking about going?

[Private]

[travelingbelle]

Someone's been doing his homework.

[Private]

[rivalappeared]

For a change. So. Thinking of going?

[travelingbelle]

I'm already way ahead of you. Things are booked and ready to roll.

[probably action probably on a couch]

[rivalsolarbeam]

[Probably Bulba has been reading whatever lit Green does not currently have his nose in.]

This region seems really... green. [In a good way.]

[action]

[rivalappeared]

It does, doesn't it? Most different kinds of flowers I've ever seen, probably...

[He tilts his head, slyly.]

Wonder what it'd be like in person...

[rivalsolarbeam]

[He glanced over at him over his book, grinning a bit.]

Probably full of pollen.

[givemeyouranswerdo]

Assume I'm not up on what's going on in Kalos. Wanna summarize?
