Sep. 20th, 2014 02:23 am[Something just occurred to him as he was in the middle of brushing his new poodle-dog, so Garry decides to turn on the SFC to voice his thoughts to the network while he continues. At least the Furfrou looks content.]
For everyone who's been here since April... Do you all remember the prom? It was exciting- and exhausting since I'd done some commissions- but there were so many apparently very important people there... And that enormous library.
I remember being there, along with a friend, trying to see if there were any notes or books that could tell us about our predicament since the two of us were still new. Marcia and I never did seem to find anything about that... But I recall reading some notes that I suppose were written by the host. They seemed to talk about a new type of Pokemon.
I can't imagine what a new type would look like... I mean, we seem to have a good balance already, don't you think? There's 17, which is, ah... [He pauses in his dog grooming to count on his fingers as he remembers.] Fire, Ghost, Water, Normal, Dragon, Ground, Ice, Psychic, Flying, Fighting... Grass and Poison.. Electric, Rock, Bug... Dark? And one more... Ah, that's right, Steel. I can't possibly imagine what a eighteenth type could even be.
So I suppose I have two questions. The first is, if you could somehow come up with a Pokemon type of your own, what would it be?
The second... [The Furfrou suddenly acts up, leaning closer to lick at his face. Garry laughs slightly.] Does anyone have any dog grooming tips?

Aug. 8th, 2014 03:28 pm[Yet another friend having disappeared- a young girl he'd promised to be there for- has had Garry in a bit of a quiet mood, although never enough that he'll forget Ib. It had hurt for Saionji's promise of coming back after the storm to go unfulfilled, and to find all those Pokemon in his and Ib's PC...]
[And then today he'd gone out aaaaand-]
It's Free Ice Cream Day! [Garry is thrilled.] That's just the sort of thing I think we all need after everything! Ib, we should take Saionji's Pokemon and see if we can't cheer them up with some!
[And something for themselves, of course.]
If anyone else is in Goldenrod, we should meet up! It looks like the weather is beautiful, so there's no better time to meet new people as well.
[Action]
[And indeed- Garry is seated at one of the outdoor seats of an ice cream parlor with Saionji's Pokemon out enjoying treats of their own. Saionji's Pokemon have been... a handful, but it looks like this has managed to distract them for now.]

Jul. 16th, 2014 09:36 pmI finally got my first batch of eggs out. I... originally planned for it to be a much smaller batch- it turns out that Garchomps don't produce too many, which is fine by me.
But, well...
[Shaking his head but smiling a bit, Garry turns the camera away to show a Blaziken sitting primly by the window. As she waits, Garry's Flareon trots up and leaves some soggy wet flowers at her feet. A small pile of the things has already been formed. His tail keeps wagging, and the Blaziken seems pretty pleased.]
It turns out while I wasn't looking, Haze has been trying to court Anpiel. Judging by the four eggs I found today, it looks like he was successful! So I have six eggs to sell for you all, if you're interested. I've decided to keep one for myself, you see.
From what I can tell, most of them are Torchics. They're about this big when they start out- [Garry makes an approximate gesture with his hands.] -and their final evolution is Anpiel there. I also have a Gible egg, if anyone is interested in having a dragon type on their team!
Dist, I know I promised an Eevee egg if I bred any of mine, and Greed, I told you I'd give you a Charmander egg... Well, I have both of those right now, if you two are still interested!
[Attached to the network post is a list of the Pokemon and the moves Garry thinks they know.]

May. 7th, 2014 06:02 amIt's unfortunate, isn't it, when people you've grown to like suddenly disappear in quick succession. I'd grown to enjoy their company, but I suppose that's how this place is, isn't it?
[It's just... Garry's first time experiencing it. He gives a sigh, video showing him seated outside somewhere this morning with one hand petting a Gible in his lap while the other dangles a lolipop. Just something to keep his mouth occupied since the urge for a smoke was particularly strong today.]
A few more Pokemon were suddenly found in my PC with Marcia and Kaede leaving. I wonder how that works? [He gives a shake of his head and offers the network a soft smile.] But... onto brighter topics.
First of all, I've made a new version of a coat I was very fond of back home. [Yes, he knows it's tattered here and there, but it's stylishly tattered. Big difference.] Secondly-
[He shifts the video to show a Charizard swooping through the air over the ocean near Goldenrod. He seems to be showing off to the Lapras that's lounging down below.]
Izzy evolved not too long ago into his final stage! He's very pleased about it and- [A Shadow Ball is suddenly tossed at Izzy, who dodges it and gives an angry roar. Garry sighs and shifts the camera to show a Banette on the docks, pointing and cackling.] ...Red Eyes evolved as well. She's even worse looking now, and she won't let up on tormenting Izzy.
[He shakes his head, ignoring the sound of conflict.]
Those two... Anyway, I've also been doodling a few outfit ideas just to past the time. If anyone's interested, this is what I've sketched out so far. [He holds up a sketchbook, with a set of four pictures shown.] What do you think? I know it's not much but, as I said, it's just something I've been doing in my spare time for fun.

4th Petal // Video - Action in Goldenrod
Apr. 13th, 2014 12:54 amI'm curious... Has anyone ever found themselves leaning towards a certain type of Pokemon? Whether on purpose or by accident.
I admit I originally took in my Cyndaquil so that my Charmander- although they've both since evolved- so that he could be more comfortable with an element he already knew. I hadn't made any particular plans past that.
I ask because I had thought my Eevee could decide if he wanted to evolve or not. While it seems like he's more than ready, I'm starting to wonder if his choice is maybe...
[And then he focuses the camera not on himself but on the trio of Pokemon who are gathered in front of a glass case in one of Goldenrod's shops. There's a Quilava, a Charmeleon, and an Eevee who is staring up at the Charmeleon with something that is very obviously outright adoration.]
...Just a little bit influenced by my current team. Ah, I suppose I really should branch out a bit more...
[There's a ghostly giggle and the camera jerks a bit a little from Garry's surprise.]
You don't count.
[Action in Goldenrod]
[Anyone going through the shops this morning might come across Garry and his Pokemon. The Fire Stone's been bought by this point, and now he's simply taking a moment to kneel by his Eevee and give it a few last pets while it's still in its unevolved form. He seems to be doing his very very best to ignore the Shuppet floating gleefully around its head.]

No one told me there were evil dolls.
[Well that's one way to open up a video to the network. Garry... seems to be in somewhat of an odd position as he whispers into the 'Gear. It seems like... underneath a desk? It's quite a feat considering how tall he is, making the conditions quite cramped. There's a Charmeleon scrunched up there with him, looking aggravated and actually sort of beat up.]
I really am rather sick of them... It seems like a sort of Pokemon, but Izzy isn't strong enough for it yet. [The Charmeleon just glowers, but stays quiet.]
If anyone could possibly lend me something stronger... Or perhaps knows an exorcism... Or lighter fluid perhaps...
[He won't be picky.]
[There's suddenly a disturbing sort of giggling noise, and Garry gives a jerk that has his head slam right into the bottom of the desk. There's a yelp from him, a snarl from his Charmeleon, more giggling, and then it's obvious by the blurred images from the screen that he's making a run for it. For a moment, the screen is focused backwards... and that sure is a Shuppet floating and looking positively manic.]
[For those other prom goers, they might see Garry all over the place.]
[Help]

Mar. 24th, 2014 11:39 amA prom... I remember going to mine, but that was a few years ago. I enjoyed myself. It's not for everyone, but it's definitely a fun sort of event even if this seems different than what I went to.
Anyway, I have two things I'd like to ask.
First, if there's anyone who wants something specifically made for them to wear to the prom, I'd like to let you know that I have some talent in fashion. I won't ask for too much right now, although certainly enough to cover the cost of materials and my time, but anything to help since my friend and I just arrived not too long ago... Well, it would be helpful to us.
As for my other question... [He pauses and sighs, shoulders slumping a little bit.] Does anyone have advice for someone trying to quite a bad habit? I'm afraid I might be slipping back into one of mine...

Mar. 8th, 2014 07:54 pmI got rather fortunate. The kimono I arrived in was positively beautiful, but it's not very practical for traveling.
[This sure is a new face appearing on the network, seated at a window seat in a cafe. The way the 'Gear is positioned shows Cherrygrove outside, so it's clear he's done a little traveling. The bandana tied around his arm and the green apron he's wearing identify him as a shiny new breeder. There's a little Charmander on his shoulder, too.]
Let me introduce myself. My name is Garry- I'm a friend of Ib's if you happen to know her. We arrived in Cherrygrove not too long ago. I was hoping now that I've gotten... a little used to things, maybe someone could answer a few questions I have.
I'm apparently a "breeder", or at least that's what it seems to say in this handbook I was given. I've read through it, so I think I have a decent idea of what to do.. It seems Izzy here- [A point to the Charmander.] - is in the 'Monster' and 'Dragon' groups, right? What sort of Pokemon are good to breed in those groups? Or... if you don't know, what are your favorite to breed? Any sort of tips would be appreciated.
I got an egg not too long ago- [He adjusts the camera to show the little egg on his lap.] Cyndaquil is in the... field group, I believe. I know it doesn't match, but I thought maybe it would be for the best if I didn't jump into things right away. Pokemon being 'just friends' seems like a good start before I start to breed them.
[He'd much rather be home... But when in Rome, right?]
Also, I've heard there are some people who have been here for quite some time. If you'd like to talk, I'm curious about some things.
