There's something strange, a sudden change
Around, all across the sky;
A change of scene as The Machine
Goes wild, and no one knows why

Everyone will say it's a great display
And we brought it for you
Cynthia and Lance set off Nukes From France™
Now you know what to do:

WE'RE KICKING OFF A ROUTE FOURTH WALL
BRING EVERY JOURNAL, ONE AND ALL
HAVE A PARTY, BREAK DOWN ALL THE WALLS
'Cause it's our game's anni-ver-er-sa-ry
And we're, so ha-a-a-ppy!

[Suddenly, Cooltrainer Lee appears! It's hard to get eye contact with Shino, but Lee stares ahead at him anyway, with an intense gaze.]

Shino-kun! I challenge you to a Pokemon battle of youth and hard work!

[He's also wearing a baseball cap that he twists around as he raises his first pokeball.]

[shinobee]

... Lee. [It is unmistakably Rock Lee. And as per the rules go, their eyes have kinda met. They must battle!]

You realise I will not go easy on anyone, even a comrade. [Shino pulls out a pokeball of his own.] Because only then can you call it a true battle of hard work and youth.

[niceguypose]

Shino-Kun. [His eyes narrow in a hawk-like manner.] If you had stated anything other than that, I would have lost all respect for you. [Whenever he remembered he existed, that is.]

Please, let us begin! Go... Youthful Fighter Karp-chan! [And he tosses his first pokeball, releasing a Magikarp.]

[shinobee]

Very well. As long as we have come to a mutual understanding. [Shino tosses his own pokeball forth. With a burst of light, Forretress Kikko enters the fray! The heavy steel wrecking ball of a bug pokemon stands between him and his fishy opponent. Kikko's big mysterious eyes stare at the floundering Magikarp from inside its shell, before proceeding to roll backwards towards its trainer.

... Is that a Magikarp? On dry land? Is it going to die like that? How is it supposed to fight that?

Sensing his pokemon's confusion, Shino only shakes his head. He did just say he wouldn't let up. It would be unfair to Lee to do anything but.]

[niceguypose]

Shino-kun, I have never felt more mutual!

[That Magikarp keeps flopping.]

Now... Youthful Fighter Karp-chan, use Tackle!

[That Magikarp shoots at the Forretress like a scaly bullet.]

[shinobee]

[You have to give Youthful Fighter Karp-chan credit. It's surprisingly fast for a fish out of water!]

We will stay on the defensive. [Says it as if addressing no one in particular, but it reaches the ears (? ??) of the pokemon it is intended for. Allow the opposition to move first, then counter accordingly.]

Kikko... Protect, then use Spikes. [Forretress does what a fortress does best: act as a near-impenetrable and unmoving force. The bizarre bug pokemon retreats inside his shell. The cannon like protrusions remain, shooting out steel caltrop spikes and scattering them all along the ground. Careful now, Karp-chan. Don't get skewered!]
