shakespearealien: (Not expecting something overwhelming.)
[The Video feed shows a profile view of Gorthan, working on something at his desk. To the untrained eye, he seems to be drawing on the graph paper laid out before him together with a set of drawing tools including, aside from the obvious pens, pencils and erasers, rulers, a compass, a protractor and set squares. ... Also, Gorthan's Noctowl is perched at the end of the desk, and Gorthan looks at it from time to time as if his Pokémon was posing for him. And yet... that isn't quite it, because he also seems to be making rather extensive use of those technical tools, picking each of them up to work with them quite often.

What he's really making is a blueprint, the good ol' fashioned way.

But what does his Noctowl have to do with that...? The viewer won't know until Gorthan speaks, about two minutes into the video. And even then... He keeps working at the blueprint as he speaks, not once turning to face the camera.]


I intend to rebuild and perfect a certain robotic device I had designed and created in my home world. If you possess skills in one or more of the following fields - mechanics, electronics, robotics, telecommunications, advanced computer programming, metalwork - please do not hesitate to contact me.

... There was someone who was willing to aid me with implementations, but he... seems to be temporarily unavailable. At this stage, I also would not be surprised if he had been kicked out of the Team entirely.

[He's referring, of course, to Robin.]

... It goes without saying that if this project is as successful as I plan it will be, any and all helpers' names will be credited accordingly. Thank you for your time.

[At which Gallade, who has been filming all along, switches off the feed.]

Video/Action:

[The video feed doesn't show Gorthan anywhere, but those are some pretty good shots of the sea from the beach on Route 34. It appears that the scientist is using the cam to film his newly evolved Gallade as the Pokémon uses his Confusion attack to levitate poor, defenseless Tentacool out of the water, sometimes two or three at a time. Then, once they're within close range, Gallade proceeds to kick their jellyfish butts by quickly slashing them with Psycho Cut and Leaf Blade before launching them back into the water. The process is repeated four or five times throughout the video - it's hard to tell exactly how many times it is, since the succession is incredibly fast, more than one jellyfish occasionally go down at once, and the whole video doesn't last longer than a minute and a half. And through most of that time, Gallade is hardly more than a white and green blur, his sword-like arms and lithe body moving at amazing speed.

And this is why Gorthan wanted his Kirlia to evolve into the Fighting and Psychic type. The entire spectacle is a pretty good mix of sadistic and completely awesome, with water sprinkling in all directions while Gallade makes fast, precise movements, as if dancing in a light drizzle glittering in the sunlight. Why, if it weren't cruel and punctuated by the sounds of Tentacool being brutally crushed, it would be pretty beautiful.]
