2nd Book Read A Accidental Video/Action for Cherrygrove Ω
[Click.
A big paw is batting at the Gear.]
Yang, stop playing with that.
[The Gear is showing the ceiling of an inn in Cherrygrove. A slender hand comes down on the camera briefly, and then the Gear is set on a table, and it shows Spencer Reid (considerably more calm now than he was on Sunday) walking back to the bed, where a very cranky Absol sits with a Munna egg wrapped in a warm towel next to him.
Also, there's half a library's worth of books piled around the room. No, seriously, if you put them all in one stack, it'd nearly be Reid's height.
Absol makes a irritable grunting noise.]
I know, I know, but we'll go out for some fresh air soon, promise. I just need to get through some more of these.
[He picks up a brick-sized book seemingly at random, sitting down on the bed with his legs crossed before placing the wrapped up egg in his lap. In retrospect, he probably shouldn't have taken one before he knew what he was doing, but he doesn't really trust the textbooks here that much and wants to make observations of development by himself.
Yes, someone has started to consider the possibility that he's not completely insane. Since he might not be insane, he wants to learn about where he is, and he wants to learn everything.
He opens up the book and started fanning through the pages, as if he were trying to find his spot, but he doesn't stop. He turns the pages so fast that he can't possibly be reading them, so it's unclear what he's doing.]
Give me half an hour. We'll go out then. And if you really want to, I guess we can go into the woods and find something for you to fight.
[...No, he still hasn't noticed that Yang turned on the Gear. People who told him this wasn't a prank should feel free to gloat and say they told him so.]

[Reid shakes his head, crossing his arms.] Nothing about this world makes sense. How could they possibly sustain this flourishing economy and bare bones of a legal system? There should be high crime rates, poverty, disease... I haven't seen any of that.
[video]
[At least the ice cream still tasted like ice cream.]
...There was an outbreak of some strange disease a few weeks ago, not long after the Pokémon Centers were attacks. And we do get our share of crimes from Team Rocket. But I must admit that the lack of beggars surprised me at first.
[video]
What disease? What were the symptoms? [Also...] ...What's Team Rocket?
[video]
[Wait, hold the presses, important issue here.]
You've not yet been told about Team Rocket? At all?
[video]
...Who would have sent out a mass message like that?
[Blink blink.
Who the hell would name themselves 'Team Rocket'?] No. I haven't heard of them.
[video]
[Chances are they'll never discover who it was.]
Team Rocket is a local criminal group. They've been known to attack important landmarks, trainers... and they are also known to have arrivals from other worlds within their ranks. Not that those arrivals necessarily chose to join them.
