11th Spell: [Video/Action for Union Cave]

[The gear clicks on in steady hands, focusing directly on Twilight's face. She checks it out a moment before nodding in satisfaction.]

Looks good, Starswirl. Make sure to keep it recording so I can review this later.

[She clears her throat and goes into scientist lecture mode.]

Date: September the Seventh by Johto's Calendar.

Location: Outside Union Cave, Azalea Town entrance. Preparing to re-enter the cave.

Experiment: In order to test the effectiveness of the Repel item sold in the shops, I wore the fragrance through the Cave and am now going to return into it as the item has worn off. I will document the difference in the frequency of encounters and use this data to determine a rough estimate of the effect. Further experiments may be necessary depending on my results.

The experiment begins now. Come on, Starswirl.

[She turns and heads inside the cave, walking along at a sedate pace. Soon enough there's the sound of wings flapping.]

Hmmm, we seem to have Pokemon already. Well that's a fairly large difference in and of itself.

Wait, just how many of them are-

[She's cut off with a shriek as a Zubat flies by, and another buzzes the gear. Starswirl quickly drops the gear and goes to help his trainer, causing the image to drop to the ground and start showing nothing but rock. Before the gear shuts off, Twilight shouts:]

It's in my hair! It's stuck in my haiiiiiiir!

[It clicks off after that.

A few minutes later, the gear clicks on again, showing a very grumpy Twilight sitting outside the cave with a bandage on her face and her hair looking like it just went through a wind tunnel. One full of various debris.
]

Conclusion: There is no need for further study. The item clearly works, and works very well.

Also, a personal note here.

I hate Zubat.

Can't believe I had to catch the rotten thing to get it out... [She mutters a few more inaudible things as she switches the gear back off. Well, no one ever said scientific research was easy.]

[Tries to picture this...winces]

Yeah, that would've been pretty awful.

There should be things other than Zubat, yeah. There's just a lot of Zubat.

Yeah, I...haven't really ever had good luck with caves here.

Well, did you know you can fall through parts of the Ice Path? Vanitas and I found out the hard way.

Luckily we didn't get hurt bad or anything, but it sure was a surprise.

Mt Moon over in Kanto was pretty nice in contrast, when you're over there.

I understand. I probably wouldn't have gone there when I did if it wasn't for Riku, but it's a fun place to explore, just like Johto is.

Lotsa time to plan things out well, at least. What sorts of things are you doing in Johto? Is it mostly research?

Oh yeah? I bet you'll do great!

[Total faith in her capabilities, you betcha]

I bet that'd make for a pretty interesting battle, to say the least.
