You know, I was going to ask whether anyone else has seen these things running around, but that's pretty much a completely moot point by now if the panic all over is anything to judge by.

So at risk of asking a dumb question, I'm going to wonder why these things are so damn violent – apparently everyone's getting mauled all over, when even failed captures don't get up and decide to bite you. Is there a reason these things are so freaked out, or...

[...]

Well, one more question, I guess.

[And there will be an image sent out shortly; it's kind of...well, it certainly is a thing all right, let's put it that way.]

Is this thing okay? It doesn't even have a face, and that's probably why the damn thing hasn't bitten me yet.

It could still charge you.

[nullorvoid]

That is why I'm over here, and it's over there. Closer than I probably should be to it, yeah, but my reflexes are pretty good and I'm trying not to piss it off too much.

I'm not trying to catch it, anyway, not without knowing what the hell it is.

[ladywithnovoice]

Well... That jewel for its face seems familiar. I'm pretty sure there's a water type like that. Some sort of starfish.

[nullorvoid]

Well, yeah.

My concern is more with why it's like that because I am pretty sure it's not supposed to be like that.

[ladywithnovoice]

Welcome to Johto.

This sort of thing happens a lot.

[nullorvoid]

I've noticed.

There's usually a little more consistency than this, though, weird bulls with a rock for a face are a new one. I'd get it if there was more than one maybe? But there are apparently all sorts of weird things that aren't this showing up everywhere, usually when there's new weird stuff it's in swarms of weird stuff.

I wonder if it has something to do with the month?

[nullorvoid]

This place likes holidays, doesn't it?

[ladywithnovoice]

It does. Something always seems to happen for the worse during this time of month.

Has anyone told you about what happened last year?

[nullorvoid]

About the crazy guys who felt the need to catch gods and raise hell in a region that isn't theirs and didn't ask for it?

I've heard a few things.

[ladywithnovoice]

Yeah, they're the ones.

I wonder if they're responsible for this somehow...

[nullorvoid]

Does this seem like the sort of thing they'd be into or do you think they just pissed off the wrong thing this time?

[ladywithnovoice]

Mix of both is always a possibility.
