[so maybe you're just browsing the network, minding your own business, when a new message pops on the screen. let's see, nothing out of the ordina--

what is that. no, really, Angel doesn't show himself on the network that often, so either you've seen him around, or you haven't. for those who haven't, he's a very tall, lanky, spidery-looking dude, with pink fur and pointy teeth and strange eyes. he has two (visible) sets of arms, and legs, on top of that! yeah, he's a real piece of work, this one. fortunately, he's not here to bother you about magic. he's here to bother you about other things]

Sup b- er. Pirates!

The name's Angel, an' I got a little survey thingie I'm conductin'. Like, the most informal survey ever, okay? Lemme tell ya, I've been here a little while, an' it amazes me when I hear about other worlds different from my own. It's incredible, like, a lotta you go through stuff I couldn't even imagine.

My question is, out of all the people you've talked to, which world do ya wanna visit the most?

I'll go first! [as cool as Angel usually is, it's obvious he's passionate about what he has to say] This kid told me about a world with little animals or monsters, or whatever, that are called Pokémon! There are a whole bunch of different species, an' I wanna meet 'em all! [wait. he calms himself] ...They don't have cats or dogs, but there are Pokémon for those, I guess. Sounds fun, right?

So, what about you, huh? Lemme know about other worlds you've heard about while bein' here. Or tell me about your worlds. I just wanna see if anythin' beats Kieran's Pokémon-world.

[this sounds like the very definition of kids becoming the future. Angel kind of likes that]

Man! That sounds so fun! Though, if kids are bein' sent off on their own, with just pokémon, I imagine it'd get dangerous, too. But, I s'ppose as long as there're adults around to help, it's not that bad.

[A strong belief in Paldea, and a reason for the Academy... partially why Geeta was on board as well, wanting the strongest trainers possible to be able to do that.]

Their pokémon are capable of protecting them- wild pokémon will attack trainers; some because they have crossed into their territory, and others because that pokémon is seeking out a worthy trainer to grow stronger with. A reason it is well taught that someone without a pokémon should not venture out into certain areas. [Some pokémon just as eager as young trainers to get out there.] When out in the wilderness it can be difficult for them, but it is why in Paldea we have turn smartphones into the pokédex as well. So that help can be on call, and there are various help stations even in those areas. The snowy areas can offer their own dangers, just as the desert may.

It can be difficult to account for everything that could happen, but it is why we try to equip them with knowledge- including how to adapt and bring the necessary gear. There are others out there, of course. We encourage trainers to go out with those they trust, even if some go solo.

[more nodding. Angel looks enlightened. he would never think of sending off kids alone in his world. but maybe the world of pokémon is just more safe and innocent in certain circumstances. aww, he really wants to see it!]

I think I'm startin' to understand! I have more questions, but I don't wanna take up alla yer time right now. I definitely would like to chat some more, an' look at those drawings of yours. Kieran an' his school friend wanna show me their pokémon, too!

[fractales]

Ah, the two young men from Blueberry Academy; Kieran in a fine young man, and Drayton certainly cares for his own pokémon as much. They are the first two of my world I have ran across in my year-and-some-months' time here.

You are more than welcome to contact me, or even visit Cosmo Conservatory, for questions and chat, along with seeing the drawings. The pokémon those two have are different from those of my own team here as well.

[angellust]

[nodnodno--]

Oh, yeah! You have some, too!

[he almost forgot]

Well, I wanna meet 'em all! I'll stop by really soon! I just gotta find the Conservatory.

[fractales]

I do indeed, Iron Valiant here assists me quite a bit while I work.

[Turo picked up the shellphone and- well, there would be coordinates, along with a detail drawn map sent—]

It is on Eltrut, and I can be found at the medical center, which is not too far away from the entrance and reception building.

[angellust]

[oh yeah. Angel almost forgot that these shellphones could do that]

Cool! Thanks a lot, Professor! I'll be comin' t'see ya in a few days.

[he has quite a bit of free time]

[fractales]

You are very welcome, and I shall be looking forward to your visit.

[And by that tone? It was an honest truth.]
