85th moon [video]

[Cecil sits at a table, smiling pleasantly while holding a cup of coffee. His team is nowhere to be seen.]

Have you ever regretted teaching an attack to a Pokémon?

[For a few seconds, the feed suddenly shakes wildly, before stopping just as quickly. Outwardly, Cecil does not react to this incident.]

...Any attack.

Don't be. Soon they'll get creative with it, and you'll start wishing for a simple Ice Beam instead.

[He says the word 'creative' like it's the worst of curses.]

Not one. Twenty-one, I'm sorry to say.

Shhh, don't say that so loud. [He looks over his shoulder, as though expecting to see disembodied ghost hands come out of the ceiling or hear cackling.] My Haunter will hear you. Though fuck, who am I kidding, he's probably already thought of a million ways to make me regret it, he's just waiting for the right time.

But dang, dude, that is unfortunate. [Cecil, how do these things keep happening to you. Just how.] Maybe it's just a new, shiny effect though? Maybe they'll...get bored of it soon.

[Hopefully. Possibly.]

No self-respecting Ghost-type needs my prompting or encouragement to start thinking up ways to trick us. I'd suggest keeping a Dark-type with you at all times.

[And even that might not be enough.]

I hope so. Training is good and important, but I do enjoy some peace and quiet.

Ahaha...bit of a case of too little, too late there. My ghosts far outnumber my dark types at this point. But that's okay, it's nothing I can't handle.

[For now, anyway. And as much trouble as some of his ghosts cause, they do, at least, stop just short of outright pandemonium.]

I bet they will though. I mean if I had the ability to make the earth tremble before me I would be pretty excited about it too. I don't know if I would do it anywhere near a house but...

I do hope for your sake that the situation will remain that way. I've seen the damage dozens of ghosts working together can cause, and it was not pretty.

[The word he's looking for might be 'traumatizing'.]

Their newfound enthusiasm and lack of care has had one advantage, at least. My house might collapse soon, but it will collapse with a Grimer-free pond.

Hey at least there's a silver lining there! And a pretty good one considering how longs that's been a problem for you. Granted it's...still trading one problem for another but this one should be easier to solve?

Did it knock them all out or did they just...leave because the pond was suddenly not as peaceful as advertised?

Those that were already present fainted after the first try, which is not surprising considering the difference in levels. The others decided that while they could put up with frequent expulsions, the tremors made the location temporarily undesirable.

Well hopefully it will end up being completely permanent instead of only temporary. The Grimers leaving I mean not the...not the tremors. I mean hopefully you can have it both ways: less earthquakes and no Grimers.

They've taken direct Psychic attacks and still managed to come back within the week before. I doubt this will stop them very long.

Oh. Well...that's a bummer. You know, maybe at this rate you might want to think about just filling that pond in entirely...

Or...would that just make it worse, you think?

It would certainly make my Water-types extremely unhappy. My Ground-types, too; they spent quite some time digging the pond in the first place.
