STORM'S BREWING

[negativeions]

[A Jolteon showed up. He's looking for his team members. And he's throwing thunderbolts around like it ain't no thang. WHAT DO?]

You're missin' this collection of menaces to society? It must really be dire over in Viridian.

[negativeions]

I was THIS CLOSE to dying of boredom.

[rivalkidneypunch]

And you thought comin' to visit a school would be less boring?

[negativeions]

To be honest, I expected to find a smoldering crater when I got here! You're lettin' me down!

[rivalkidneypunch]

It's temptin', sure, but you should hear the naggin' every time something gets even a little bit set on fire. It's like people have something against havin' a dragon burn their home down.

[negativeions]

Can't imagine why.

[rivalkidneypunch]

I'm gonna chalk it up to lackin' a sense of adventure.

[negativeions]

Or not being flame-retardant.

[rivalkidneypunch]

When you get down to it, they're really the same thing.

[negativeions]

Hey, I know the feeling. Gettin' to a point where a guy can't even make a few hairs stand on end!

[rivalkidneypunch]

Guess you came to the right place after all. I could name a few hairs I wouldn't mind seein' put on end, that's for friggin' sure.

[negativeions]

So you need me to bring the thunder, huh? On who?

[rivalkidneypunch]

I ain't sayin' I can't fight my own battles, lemme just make that clear. I'm just gonna casually point out that Red's chucklefucks have been stinkin' this joint up for like a year now. And maybe go make some popcorn.

[negativeions]

Wait, wait. Red? And his posse? They're here too?

[rivalkidneypunch]

You're really behind the times, ain'tcha? In other groundbreaking news, I'm a Charizard now and Green's been appointed leader of Viridian Gym.

[negativeions]

Is there a reason we HAVEN'T curbstomped them yet?

[rivalkidneypunch]

Hey, don't look at me. I been doin' my part.

[negativeions]

Well, lucky for you I showed up then.

[rivalkidneypunch]

Arceus knows everyone could use somebody shakin' a little sense into them. S'like they've all decided we're suddenly too cool to compete anymore.

[negativeions]

Yeah, jus' let 'em think that as long as they want. Means we get stronger while they stay where they are!

[rivalkidneypunch]

Sure as hell don't stop them from bein' unbearably smug about it, though. Better brace yourself for that if you're plannin' on stickin' around.

[negativeions]

Good to know. Thanks, bro.
