[There's a... very uncertain-looking young man peering into the camera. He's really not sure what to make of any of this. It's a little hard to believe that he's like this, and he can't morph, and that there are Pokemon.]
[... He's trying to keep it together.]
So... uh.
[Great start, Tobias.]
I guess... I'm stuck here? No one in town really had anything useful to say. None of this makes much sense. And I'm guessing asking how to get home isn't going to get me any real answers, either.
[There's a squawk off-camera, and he looks concerned for a minute.]
I'm guessing the first step is to head to the next town, right? And start building up a team...
[... Why did he make this broadcast anyway?]
... If anyone's got any advice for that kind of thing, feel free to give it.
[He clicks the broadcast off.]
[Action]
[He's not in New Bark Town anymore. He's nearby, but he's sitting in a small area free of tall grass, staring down his Pokemon. What's a Rufflet, anyway? ... At least the body language is familiar. He holds out his hand, waiting for the little Pokemon to approach.]
[... This might take a while.]

There's also, of course, criminals- people who will mug you or steal your Pokemon.

... Trainer, I guess.

Flying Pokemon need a TM called Fly for you to use them- I have one. But you also have to have defeated... Ah, I'm sorry, I forget his name, but he's a trainer in Violet City.
You see, a lot of the cities past New Bark and Cherrygrove have what are called Gyms. If you defeat the Gym Leader in charge of them, they'll give you special items, money... Things like that. They're really important for finding special TMs like Fly, or allowing you to use them in the first place. The one in Violet is the latter.

That's... frustrating. Though I guess it's fine, I don't think he's big enough to carry me yet, anyway.
Ruff!
... Yes, I'm talking about you.

Is there anything else I can help with?
