❀ 2nd Konpeito ❀ [Video]

[When the video switches on, she's holding a book- on Pokémon, and sitting in the corner of the Dangan House. There's a paper in her hands, and if you squint, you can make out frantic scrawling in Japanese all over the other side of it, written with a heavy hand- there's imprints on the paper.

Her Mawile is sleeping on the beanbag next to her, and a Petilil carries more books to her obediently. When Saionji takes them, said Petilil goes to bother Ayani instead.]
You know... I've been thinking, and... it's so stupidly pitiful.

[A pause. She doesn't elaborate.] ...And what's a legendary Pokémon?

[ She's...still in the same house but of course Nanami has to answer this one immediately, instead of hunting down Saionji.

This is a gaming question, her time has come. ]


In the game, it's a Pokémon that there is only one of...and a master ball is useful in catching them, since that one has the best capture rate. There's normally stories about them in the lore, too, I think.

The ones from the game are...Zapdos, Articuno, Moltres, Mew, and Mewtwo. But, there are ones here, too. ...I think.

[Did someone say Pokemon questions? A young man shows up on the screen.]

Legendary Pokemon are powerful and extremely rare Pokemon. There's usually a myths and legends about them, kind of like this world's dragons and phoenixes.

[ This old man is smoking a cigarette, looking a bit curious about you. Japanese writing, huh... ]

... Legendary Pokemon? Hhn. [ Smirk. ] I guess a Pokemon that's talked about in Legends. You know, rare. [ Snake never really cared enough to think about it. ]

Legendary means remarkable enough to be famous or very well known or described in, or based on legends. So using the definition itself, we can assume that it's a Pokemon that is famous enough to be written in lore and legend. It's probably so rare that most people aren't even sure it exists, and if it exists, it probably exists as a singular entity.

At least the books I've read that include Legendary Pokemon speak as though they don't have multiple instances of them like most of the Pokemon we own.

Are you trying to catch one?

So everyone answer your question or do you need me to slide in here? Because I can tell you a bit about the legendaries. I've seen a few of them when they decided to bring in a super blizzard last winter.

[Normally Mondo would just go find Saionji to ask that question, but he's kind of in the middle of work. He's got his hair down again and is wearing something other than his Crazy Diamonds jacket - he almost looks presentable. He's leaning on the counter in the Pokémart and obviously not doing a very good job of working, but oh well.]

As for legendary Pokémon... they're apparently somewhere between the regular Pokémon around here and gods. I dunno if you can catch 'em or anything, but that'd be pretty fucking awesome if you could!
