[Video | Action for Goldenrod]

[ Private Text Sent to Ventus in the early Morning }

I must speak with you. Attend to me when you are available.


[ The feed clicks on to briefly show a Shinx's face before he grabs at the Gear, carrying the device in his mouth and turning it around to face his trainer. Said trainer's currently standing at what looks to be a dock, stretching quite languidly, and... in swimwear.

Unaware of the shenanigans her little Pokemon is up to, Nero pumps up her fist once she's done stretching. ]

Mmm! Such a beautiful day! I believe Spring has finally arrived. A good time for an exercise...

Right, Praetor?

[ There doesn't seem to be an answer to whoever Nero's just addressed... until a distant roar is heard. There's a slight rumble as whatever it is is coming closer, then a very loud splash occurs in front of Nero's face as a Gyarados rises from the depths of the oceans, peering down at her trainer. She merely laughs while her Gyarados lowers her head so that Nero can climb and sit on top of her crown. ]

Now... let us dance!

[ Her response from her sea serpent is a loud roar, before Praetor crashes back into the ocean, with Nero still on top. Lux the Shinx lets out a yelp and ambles closer to the edge of the dock, where Nero and Praetor the Gyarados pop out of the surface of the ocean ahead, and you can still hear the Emperor's jubilant cries.

Yup. Someone's bouncing with her recently evolved Gyarados. In Goldenrod waters. ]


[ Actual Video, a few hours afterward ]

[ The feed snaps back on after a moment, now showing Nero actually addressing the Gear herself. Still in her swimwear, but with a red towel draped around her shoulders and currently sipping on a can of lemonade, she takes a moment to swallow before speaking: ]

Good afternoon. Due to... recent events, I feel I must ask whether or not Johto holds an annual... festival, of sorts? Truly, there are times to be serious, but keeping that a constant in one's life is just as unhealthy as being too lax!

It's called April fool's day, it's on the first of April. People try pranking others for kicks.

It's more of a pseudo holiday you don't have to do anything but you don't know who might be participating.

Gah! A holiday for tricksters and sabotage? I will have to be on my guard soon!

It can be fun if you decide to prank someone that's a challenge. Plus you should just worry about people that are prone to playing tricks anyway.

[autocratic]

Rest assured, I will keep a keen eye about for these tricksters. To make such a holiday for something like this...

Some people like it. It's fun seeing people getting tricked. [Though if he was prank he'd be ticked.]

After April's fool there another holiday it's called Easter but I don't really get it myself.

It involves eggs and pastel colors.

Ah, I have heard of the same holiday, but have not partaken in its customs before. Compared to this April Fool's day, it seems mildly tame.

There was a bunch of games and little festivals last year for it.

[Honestly all he remember is the candy and the free egg.]

[Video]

[autocratic]

As I thought: tame. I will have to look into what these games and "little festivals" entail.

When I say little festivals each town is does something. The town in this place are pretty small.

From what I remember they had a pokemon egg hunt, face painting, and a plastic egg hunt.

Hmm, those activities sound better suited to children's needs, I do not see how this would interest adults much.

[killer_sweets]

There are some after parties, where adults get drunk and dance. Or so I've been told.

Now those are the sort of "fun" activities I would certainly partake in!
