9th Grail: [Video/Action for Ecruteak]

[Ilya's sitting at a table outside of what looks like the Ecruteak public library, a mug of something in one hand and a book in the other. Behind her, Xion can be seen looking up at something in the sky, though she's a bit out of focus.]

This city really is an amazing place to learn about the legends of the Pokemon world. I should have come here earlier. That story about the phoenix and the three beasts... I thought it was fascinating, until I stumbled upon this.

[She turns the book to the camera, showing off a picture of two certain Pokemon...]

These two are said to control Time and Space itself. That sort of power, in the hands of these two Pokemon! Imagine what they could do if they put their minds to it...

[There's an odd gleam in her eye as she mentions that. Though some people might be distracted by Xion beginning to wave her arms in the air at something offscreen...]

They weren't kidding when they called them Legendary. Does anyone know anyplace else I can find out more about them? I think I'm running out of references to them in Ecruteak... this place is much more interested in the beasts and the birds. Which are intriguing, but-

[Ilya's interrupted as a Dragonite suddenly swoops down and crashes into Xion. She jumps and whirls around, staring for a brief moment as a Garchomp joins in. Fortunately, there aren't any fighting sounds following it...]

Er, Xion, are you alright? [She glances at the gear.] Excuse me a moment everyone, I think I have to go save my traveling partner...

[The gear clicks off.]

[OOC: Responses will come fairly quickly, Xion's Pokemon are just being overly affectionate. Xion and Ilya are both available to respond to this post, though Ilya will be fielding pretty much everything that isn't "are you okay, Xion?"]
enjoymyatelier: but what would that even do. (gradients of babylon...?)

Actually, not necessarily. Apparently, this world bears a strong resemblance to some sort of game that appears to have been popular in some variants of Earth... at least, Kanto seems to. The person who I spoke to about it only seemed to know of Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Mewtwo, which seems a bit strange.
enjoymyatelier: maybe he should check the foundations, come to think of it. (red car. good point.)

Well, it's also entirely possible that it's a coincidence. Given that if there are infinite parallel worlds, there's no real reason why a work of fiction can't strongly resemble a world that actually exists, even if it's an incomplete portrayal.

...

I think I've already seen it happen, actually...

Perhaps. It's not too difficult to believe that whatever is behind all this simply has a strange sense of humor.
