One Seed ✿ Route 29 ✿ Video

[The screen fizzles into a view of the clear sky, before wobbling down to show the uncertain face of a brown-haired woman. The realization that she's finally turned on the gear makes her start, before she manages a polite smile.]

Excuse me- I'm sorry to broadcast like this, when I won't know anyone who answers- At least, I assume not... But I'm uncertain how I came here.

The books I have explain what I'm expected to do very well, but I'm afraid I have my own responsibilities to see to. I just arrived back home, before I was, pulled here...

[She looks off to the side, though whether she's focusing on the buildings of New Bark Town or the surrounding forest is hard to say.]

It's too bad I didn't find this place, when I was out on my journey... The land seems very fertile. And blooms such curious creatures.

[That brings on a brief show of cheer among her worrying, focused down at something at her feet. There's the unmistakable call of a Pokémon- And the call shorts out.]

The land is very fertile! There's lots of trees and berries, and the sky is so clear a lot of times.

Don't worry about broadcasting, though. Everyone does it.

[Ken has been feeling kind of broody lately - he can't find his erstwhile travel partner anywhere, but all her Pokémon found him. Could she really have gone home without him noticing, because he's been so wrapped up in his own goals and his friends from home? Guilt tugs at him.

So when he sees a newcomer - well. Nostalgia trip. (Odd that he can have one, but he's been here longer than he thought...)]

Concern's natural, so I can't tell you not to worry. We all have things we need to do.

But time flows differently between worlds. You'll return to the moment you left.

Amazing... I wonder, is this land blessed by the Harvest Goddess? Our farm might be back in shape now, but seeing what this land has to offer might be wise, after all.

Thank you for information! [Attempting a bow, with the screen. Questionable success.] It's good to know it's acceptable, to ask questions on this network...

I'm Anissa, by the way.

[Please excuse the delay, as Anissa stares not only because of Ken's claim, but at getting such a strange answer from such a young man.]

Oh my... I've never heard of a land like this before... The closest we came to such magic was the crops failing, or the fires refusing to burn...

... I don't think that many of them bloom.

I'm Sisuca! It's very nice to meet you, Anissa.

I don't know about a Harvest Goddess, but there's a lot here. And everyone is nice if you get stuck and need help. [She smiles! Oh, she likes you already, Anissa.]

So you're a farmer, then? I grew up in a farming village myself.

Oh? Do some of them grow to resemble other plants? Or fruit crops? Or trees?

Or... Do they vary even more than that?

There's as much variation in them as there is in people! Near endless possibilities!

... but, ah... If you want to see plants or trees, you'll be wanting to invest in Grass types.

It's a little tough to get home on your own...from what I understand, you don't have a whole lot of control of it at all.

But! Like you said, the things are nice to look at here.

[Ken nods. He had an advantage coming into this situation: world-hopping isn't anything new.]

The time shift isn't - uncommon. But most people can't access other worlds, so....

Anyway, the important thing's to focus on the present, here.

Ah, I just hope Mother and Father focus on re-energizing the farm, instead of worrying where I've gone...

But if they don't, that just means I should learn I can from this world in the meantime, so I can take that knowledge home with me.

So, there's still enough of this type of creature to have their own category? [Such relief!] I wonder how many there are, or if I could possibly find or raise them all properly...

Do you have a favorite sort of... Pokémon?

You did? [A promise of a friendly network and help from a farmer, too? How did she stumble over this?!]

Do you find that helps you, with raising this little guys?

[Perfectly reasonable question, with a Budew - her only pokey so far - toddling around her, right?]

I suppose that's reasonable... [If still strange.

And it mirrors her practical impression of the land, too, but still, a couple seconds of glancing down at her Budew, and she's looking up curiously again.]

Do you know if we can take anything we find here home with us?

Mm! There are a bunch of different types, but it would be kind of boring to just list them all out for you... If you want to raise them all though, you really are in for a epic challenge.

--as for my favorite though, I admit I favor the cute ones a little... I don't have any actual preferences though!

[Well, not exactly a farmer, even if she knows enough. She'll clarify, though.]

Yes! Though, I was more like a teacher...I taught the little ones to read and write. Back home, they all call me Mama. It really helps, though, I think! There's a lot of big cities here, but it's all about hard work and love.

[She notices that Budew. How adorable!]

What one is yours? I haven't seen that one before.

[That catches him by surprise.]

--Sorry. I don't. But...

[He puts a hand to his chin, thinking hard. Between the real and digital worlds, it's certainly possible; items pass back and forth all the time. But when someone's sent home here, their Pokémon remain...]

What did you want to bring?

Oh- looked after the children? We didn't have enough people in our town anymore to keep the school running... I hope this place allows you to still do what you love.

It looks like I'll get to...

[She's musing, until Sisuca draws her attention to her own company, drawing a smile.]

This is a Budew, according to that talking device I have! She's sweet- I think she's been trying to cheer me up. Or else she's just enjoying this sunshine!

I was thinking, if I can find things to grow and learn how to raise them, I could take back seeds! Then I could grow plants my home's never seen, and spread them through our family shop. And create new medicines!

[She glances down at her walking bud, too- But no. It's one thing to grow new species of plants. Her world would just follow her in seeing them as new hybrids or something. But Pokémon?

And her Budew probably wouldn't be happy in her land... And she couldn't imagine dragging her out of this sunny, fertile world. What if it made her wilt?!]

Oh? Then maybe our favorites will overlap! I've only seen one so far, but this "Grass-Type" is cute!

[True fact, or heavy bias?

You decide.]

Eheh... That's entirely possible~! The only Grass Type I really know is Bellossom from one that a friend had, and they were absolutely adorable.

I'm sure everything will be fine. I heard somewhere that you go back to the time you left anyway.

That's true too! I hope you find out a lot here.

Oh, yes. All together, there were four of them...my sister, my precious little one...Jale, whose mother was always traveling...and another boy who wandered to our village and stayed with us. Someone had to teach them to read and write, though! Mama loved every second.

[She smiles back, watching the Budew carefully. Such a cute one! She makes a mental note to maybe catch one for herself.]

Budew, hmm? She looks like a sweetheart, I agree with that. I bet she's trying to cheer you up! Pokémon are very smart.

Then I can't speak to the possibility. Keep them on you, though, and maybe...

[He shrugs, blinking.]

It's an interesting idea.
