Puzzle 004 - [Video]

[hintcoinplz]

[The video shows Luke sitting on a bench in a Pokecenter, with Hoppip nestled in his arms and Teddiursa staring curiously into the camera. Instead of his usually outfit, he’s wearing a Youngster uniform instead, except that he‘s still wearing that same old hat of his. While the little guy is starting to master future technology, he looks very bothered by something.]

I suppose it’s time to move onto the next town then. As nice as it was to stay in Cherrygrove, we can’t stay here forever. I'm not too excited about traveling for a week, especially with those wild Pokemon running about, but we'll just have to make the best of it and...

Um…

Something’s wrong, I can’t understand Mr. Bear or Hoppip…I tried to talk to them, but…I hope this isn't permanent.

woot!

I could but, something happened and now I can't. It's strange, they weren't that much different from the animals I used to talk to back home.

That's very strange that something happened.

(OOC: Reminds me of a puzzle I once heard...)

Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Ash.

((ooc: Just wait until Ruins of Alphs or any gym. Puzzles EVERYWHERE.))

If everyone was brought here from all over to this strange world, then maybe it changes how we can communicate with each other? I don't know how else it could happen.

Ah! I'm Luke. It's nice to meet you, Ash.

[brave-phantom.livejournal.com]

That makes sense.

And it's very nice to meet you Luke. I see you have a Hoppip and... A Teddiursa?

[OOC: I was just thinking of the Alph ruins. He's going to have a field day with both the slider puzzles, the maze-like structure, and the encoded language patterns. XD]

[hintcoinplz.livejournal.com]

Mhm! This is Mr. Bear- [He moves the Pokegear so the Teddiursa's face comes into view] -and this is Hoppip! [He does the same thing for Hoppip.] I haven't thought of a real name to give him yet.

[ooc: He will think he's died and gone to puzzle heaven. Imagine if a Layton ever discovers the Ruins of Alph. ='D]

[brave-phantom.livejournal.com]

Oh? Would you like me to help you name him? I have several Hoppip of my own, so I may be able to help.

[OOC: It'd be a short trip. He'd keel over from a heart attack.]

[hintcoinplz.livejournal.com]

Oh certainly! If you can think of one. It'd feel strange giving Mr. Bear a name and not Hoppip.

[ooc: P-Professah! Please don't die I just wanted to show you these cool ruins I found! ;o;]

How about... Dandy? (Ignoring the fact he has a Mareep by a similar name... But this is more fitting)

The leaves on it's head look like dandelion leaves, and it floats on the wind just like the seeds do.


[OOC: Luke... Before I die... *cough* Listen carefully...

If I die in 2 minutes, and I have 30 breaths left before I die, how can I maximize my life left if I spend no more than 6 seconds per breath between no- *gurgles*.]

[hintcoinplz.livejournal.com]

Dandy? [Pauses and looks down at the Hoppip in his lap.] Well, what do you think of it? [The Hoppip chirps happily. Of course Luke can't tell if he approves of the name or not, but judging by the reaction, he seems to respond to the name.] Okay, Dandy it is then!

[ooc: W-wait you didn't tell me how many picarats this was. *sob*]

[brave-phantom.livejournal.com]

Great! I'm happy for you both, Luke!

[ooc: lmao.]
