005 || video/action for Olivine City;

[majorcrotchgrab]

[Raikov's chillin' on the beach, clad in nothing but sunglasses and a black speedo. He's got the device set down next to him in the sand. His other Pokemon can be seen running around in the distance behind him. Katya is by his side like always though, sporting a tiny straw hat. lookit how stylish she is. gurrlll]

I have to say, I've got some good luck as far as traveling goes. I arrived in Olivine right after the week-long rain and now the weather is beautiful. I was never one for beaches back home but this place is amazing. There's a perfect breeze coming off the ocean, it's not too hot out... I think I'll be staying here for a while. I may even be able to work on getting a tan instead of burning like I usually do.

[Curse his semi-albinism. He looks pleased though.]

Mmm.. I never thought I'd say this but... this is the life. Even with how weird this world operates, I'm glad I'm here.

[Katya chirps in agreement from the hole she's dug in the sand. Raikov rolls on to his side to face his pokegear and props his sunglasses up slightly. There's that mischievous grin that clearly reads "I'm up to no good."]

But enough about me being all sentimental and soft. You've all had more than enough time to admire the view. If I let this go on any longer, I'll have to start charging.

[And he grabs the pokegear, thus ending the recording. What a brat.]


[OOC: Pretend this was earlier in the day.]

A good selection of Pokémon to have. [He nodded. Otacon couldn't help but notice how little the guy was actually wearing. Since, when did guys wear speedos anymore? They used to be hip in the eighties but now? It left little to the imagination.]

You're quite brave to be sunbathing out with nothing but some tight trunks on. If it were me, I'd burn up pretty bad.

[majorcrotchgrab]

I normally do but this sun screen lotion works really well. I'm glad it's actually improved over the years.

[otakon_geek]

Hm. I'm not really an outdoor kind of guy. I doubt any sun lotion would work on my pale complexion. [He shrugged and then earned a peck on the ear from Piplup.]

Ow! What was that for? [He frowned at his Pokémon and then understood.] Oh. So, you want me to get onto the beach, so you can go and swim, huh? Right ok. [He sighed then looked back at Raikov.]

How is Katya enjoying herself? I see you bought her a straw hat. It looks cute on her.

[majorcrotchgrab]

I'm paler than you and generally don't tan well. So far I'm doing alright with the lotion I have.

[Katya looks up and chirps when she hears herself being spoken about.]

She's doing well. Finally adjusted to me having more Pokemon than just her.

[otakon_geek]

I didn't think that anyone could be paler than me. [But you're silver haired, Raikov. You're meant to pale, right?]

It looks like you're right. Your skin is pale but you've not burnt at all. You must have the knack of applying the sun lotion just right. [Ok, enough talking about Raikov's skin, Otacon.]

She's really cute. Piplup was the same when I first got another Pokémon after him.

[majorcrotchgrab]

Maybe. Like I said, it seems to be more advance than what we have back in my time.

[Raikov reaches over and gently scratches Katya under her chin.]

I get the impression your Piplup still thinks of himself being the leader.
