01 [ACTION]

[bestsweater]

[There is a giant, living boulder...thing on campus. It's snake-like in appearance and is just kind of milling about, sticking its giant rock nose into bushes, peering into second-story windows, leaving the campus lawn all torn up in its wake. Hey man, you can't be a massive stone-serpent and not leave a some kind of trail. It's around various places all day, and very clearly seems to be giving the place a once-over.

One might easily ignore the young man that accompanies this gargantuan creature (or is it the other way around?) if not for the fact that he is wearing an obnoxious shade of bright orange. Still, it might take you a few moments to notice him, given the sheer size of his rock-like companion. He carries a backpack, and a map which he refers to every so often.

What is most interesting about this duo, perhaps, is the fact that they seem to be actively conversing, albeit in different languages. Occasionally this mysterious arrival hitches a ride on his stony friend along their self-guided tour. It's obvious that they're evaluating the school with a sort of non-verbal running commentary, perhaps looking for a familiar face or two.

[Olimar smiles and hesitantly ties to pet Onix.]

That's correct. I'm the academy's biology professor. The flora and fauna of this planet intrigues me. You see, I actually come from another planet. Oh... Perhaps that sounds a tad absurd, especially while I'm in this human form.

Smash Academy is populated with a vastly diverse crowd.

...Another planet?

[leadthemalong.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's right. Is that... difficult to believe?

[bestsweater.livejournal.com]

Well...no. There are some Pokemon that supposedly come from other planets.

But did you say...human form?

[leadthemalong.livejournal.com]

That's right. I am unsure how it works, but the things possible on this planet reminds me of magic. But magic is just science, I suppose. As I mentioned prior, Smash Academy is populated with unique and peculiar individuals. I am not the only one at this school to take on another form.

[He grins, leveling around where his height would be as a Hocotatian.] In reality, I'm approximately only this tall.

[Skeptical Brock is skeptical. He thinks you are maybe messing with him.]

Really.

[Olimar's face and tone should show that he is very serious.]

If you do not believe me, you could always ask others.

[bestsweater.livejournal.com]

No, no. I'm just a little surprised.

Is space travel uncommon in Kanto?

[bestsweater.livejournal.com]

Pretty much.
