25th Spell: [Video]
You know, of all the Pokemon to honor, Slowpoke seems like a rather odd choice.
[If Twilight's voice sounds funny, it's because she's currently at the bottom of a well. And those familiar with Azalea town should probably be able to get clued in pretty quickly that it's Slowpoke Well, specifically.]
Not that I have anything against the species in general but... it's not a Legendary or anything, which is what these are usually named after. I guess it could just be because there are so many of them... though I haven't actually seen any yet.
[As she says that there's a squish sound, and the video wobbles when she jumps.]
Ah! Oh... There you are. [The view shifts to a Slowpoke, who seems entirely undisturbed by the fact that it just got stepped on.] Good, I'm glad you're here after all. Snails, come on out!
[One pop of a pokeball later, a Slowbro is standing there staring down at it's brethren. The two of them stare at one another for several moments before the Slowbro talks.
Sloooooooow
The Slowpoke stares in response for several more moments before answering with a Pooooooke of its own. Twilight groans.]
... Okay in retrospect I don't know why I thought this would need to be record- waugh!
[She jumps again, jiggling the camera, and the view turns to show several more Slowpokes coming towards her.]
Oh. Well, there really are a lot of them down here, aren't there? I guess Snails will have plenty of company for this little visit... Wait. They're coming from the direction of the stairs up, aren't they? Which means the path back is now all slimy and I'm liable to fall on my face...
[She and the camera swivel around back to Snails, who stares blankly at her, but with a big dopey grin on his face.]
You had them do that on purpose, didn't you?
[This seems like a really silly accusation at first...
Until he slowly, deliberately winks at her.]
You're not funny!

[Dopey grin from Snails. Totally innocent here. Don't know what you're talking about.]
no subject
Ah, c'mon! There's nothin' wrong with a little prank. It coulda been worse: they coulda turned the bottom of the cave into a slip-'n'-slide, too.

[It seems as good a guess as any, all things considered.]
no subject
Though I'd primarily be having it deal with my own troublesome Pokemon.

[WELL. Color him intrigued. Just give him a second while he pulls up his Pokedex to look this thing up...
...
Huh. Yusuke quirks a brow and tilts his head a little, studying the picture of the giant... whatever now displayed on his screen.]
Well, that's weird-looking. What is it, a robot?
no subject
[Not the most creative of her names, she'll admit.]
Anyway, I wasn't kidding about its power. Magnezones are very dangerous with their special attacks. A Zap Cannon from Tesla is enough to take down pretty much anything with a type weakness, even if it's at max level strength.

[He probably won't, because his monster hoard is big enough as it is, but it's something to consider, at least. The fact that it won't shed is a pretty big draw.
That said, though--]
D'you ever have to pry it off of things? Y'know, 'cause of the magnets?
[He's just imagining a giant metal thing with eyes stuck to somebody's refrigerator...]
no subject
[The mental image of all her balls stuck onto Tesla is one that she's thought of before.]
no subject
Yeeeah, thaaat'd be kinda awkward. But hey, at least you wouldn't lose 'em, right?
[... :|a]
I wonder if you could use 'em like metal detectors. Magnezones, I mean. Then y'could find money people dropped and pocket it.
