So long is there gonna be a long hiatus after this next episode?

You added points to Bennett?! HOW DARE YOU! Haha. Jk. LOVED this episode. The interaction between Bennett and Vanilla was quite tense. Can't wait for the next 1.

Or maybe too much exploring around in the 1st city/ward? (I never know what to really call them. Haha.) Yea. That could also be true. Plus, it was kind of like a filler Episode.

Umm... I'm not sure. I know there was talk of Spinarak but I didn't even notice 1 of them had 1. Btw, is it just me or does Nappy seem... bored in this Episode?

Episode 2 has been watched! Yo... Twit gonna get blown the fuck back when it's time to face Fern. xD

Dang dude. I'm sorry that happened to you. We'll be ok though. You've done great work with what you've done so far.

If it was any other game, I'd say go for it. But with Reborn, I'd say that the shiny clause wouldn't be too fair.

Don't forget Julia.

I went into a building that was once next to the PokeMart and sat down on a couch. I was contemplating what I was gonna do next. I came here for the medicine for Anna but the Mart had now disappeared. I also came here for a Gym Battle but I felt bad that I would only be able to come back with a badge but no medicine. But I decided I should just go for the badge and figure out what to do after. There was no point in being here and not go for the badge. I got up from the couch and walked outside. Unfortunately for me, it had started to rain. Matthew: -sigh- Fucking rain. I hastily walked over the rest of the town to search for the gym. The last building I saw seemed quite fancy and nice. Not something I saw very much since I came here some time ago. I looked over and saw a Gym sign. I was at the right place. I walked up to the door and was about to reach for the handle when the door flung open, smacking me right on my scarred cheek. ???: Luna?! Matthew: Ohh Arceus! Son of a… fuck! ???: Ohh! My apologies! Matthew: It’s alright. Just… It hit me in a bad spot. And no. I’m not this Luna person. I looked up at the kid while still holding my cheek in pain. He looked weird. Glasses, nerdy like clothing and Arceus knows what was going on with his hair. As I stared at the boy, I could see his eyes fixated onto my face. And I knew what his next sentence was gonna be. ???: Holy smokes. What happened to your face? Matthew: I got in trouble with a Garchomp. ???: Wow. That’s… insane. Matthew: You’re telling me. ???: Well excuse me. I was supposed to investigate the source of a loud noise. He walked around me and away from the house a bit and turned around looking to the roof of the house. I could see a confused look go over his face. ???: Well… That would do it. I walked up to him and looked up to the roof of the house. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Matthew: Is that- ???: Indeed it is. -walks up to the front door and shouts- Mother, the PokeMart seems to have appeared on top of the house! ??? #2: Say what now? An older woman, still looking good for her age though, walked out next to Bennett. She was wearing somewhat of skin tight clothing and her hair was a color mixture of light blue and some kind of magenta color. These 2 were related? The woman walked out a bit and then looked up at the PokeMart that had plopped down on the roof of her house. ??? #2: So it has. Well, it explains why we couldn’t get the balcony door open before. -turns towards me- Ohh. Hello there. I didn’t notice you. Who might you be? Matthew: My name is Matthew. Serra: Hello there Matthew. My name is Serra. And I suppose I’m this town’s Gym Leader? Matthew: Wait. You suppose? Serra: Mhm. And as for the shop… Well, I’m afraid we might be out of luck there. Matthew: Damn. I find it and I still can’t get to it. Serra: I have an idea. Why don’t you come inside? You too Bennett. Matthew: Alright. Thanks. The 3 of us walked into the house. I couldn’t believe how nice it looked inside. It also basically only had the colors that were in Serra’s hair which was odd but it wasn’t my house. So I didn’t say anything. I walked up to them and went to go sit on the couch but Bennett pulled me to him standing in front of him. Bennett: Greetings! My name is Bennett, as you’ve already heard. I’m a lepidopterist. Matthew: You’re a what? Bennett: A person who studies butterflies and moths. Matthew: Ohh. That’s cool I suppose. Bennett: It is! Something about how little insects can go from what they are to something so much more. It’s just so exciting! Matthew: Ummm… Bennett: Did you know that Cascoon have perfect memories? Matthew: I did n- Bennett: Despite never moving or doing anything, they’ll never forget a battle! Matthew: Ok the- Bennett: And once they evolve, they’re remarkably able to exact any form of retaliation for what happened earlier in their life! When you think about it, they truly are small geniuses- Serra: Bennett, that’s enough. I think that’s quite enough for right now. You might be boring our guest. Matthew (thinking to myself): Ohh thank merciful Neptune! After listening to all of that, I sat down next to Serra. It was a bit of awkward silence there. Then she started to speak. Serra: I must ask this but- Matthew: Incident with a Garchomp. I get asked that all the time. Serra: I’m sorry about what happened to your face but that isn’t what I was going to ask. Matthew: Ohh… Sorry. Continue then. Serra: You’re a challenger to the Reborn League, right? Matthew: Indeed I am. I’ll be up to 6 badges with my next Gym win. Serra: Impressive. As I believe I have mentioned earlier, I am a Gym Leader. An Ice-Type Gym Leader. Matthew: Ice-Type huh? Bennett: Yes! And Luna is also a Gym Leader! Serra: … Yes, she is, but we’re not talking about her right now, and she’s not here. Matthew: Again with this girl? Bennett: Matthew, have you at any point, seen a young girl with very pretty blonde hair and a fancy black and white dress? And also a really pretty… well everything? Matthew: Uhhh… No? Serra: Stop it Bennett. You’re making things uncomfortable here for Matthew. And myself to be honest. If she wants to come back, then she will. Matthew: I know I shouldn’t ask but… who is she? Serra: I guess I should explain. Luna is, or I guess was, my adopted daughter. Just randomly appeared 1 day. Apparently things here have penchant for that sort of thing. Anyways, she claimed that I was her mother. I quickly glanced over to Bennett who seemed to be really excited over this conversation about this Luna person. While she might not have been related to him, it was kind of creepy that he had this fascination with his adopted sister. I continued listening to Serra’s story. Serra: By the way, I am quite sure that is not the case. I’ve only had 1 child and he’s right there. Nonetheless though, I couldn’t turn her away. She actually was a pretty good girl but I can’t just go on playing “House” with her forever. Matthew: It’s ok. I understand. Serra: Anyways, she’s run off again. So that’s good… But then again, everything does seem to slip away from me eventually. Matthew (thinking to himself): Did… Did she just make an ice pun? Serra: I have no idea on how to go about finding her real parents. It’s not as if they’re just going to randomly appear at our doorstep 1 day. As soon as she said that, the doorbell rang. Matthew: That’s… That’s just weird. Serra: Bennett, go answer the door for me please? Bennett: Yes Mother. Bennett went and answered the door, he came back beside his mother. I turned around and saw what seemed to be an old man wearing some kind of tan robe. Sirens started to go off in my head when I saw him. ???: Prosperitas, Pax Pacis, Obsequium. Blessings of the Lord Arceus upon your house. Matthew (under my breath): What the hell? El: My name is El, a servant of our Lord Arceus. Serra: Well hello and welcome El. How can I help you? I hope you aren’t trying to get into the PokeMart. El: No my dear. I am here for a different reason. To look for my daughter. Matthew (in my thoughts): Are you fucking kidding me? Everything Serra said about this Luna girl and now apparently, her father appears out of nowhere to claim her. This is just too… weird and cheesy somehow. Bennett: Wait. You couldn’t possibly mean Luna could you? El: Very good. You do know her. Matthew: Well those 2 do. I’ve only just been told not that long ago about her. El: Then I shan’t bother asking you any questions about her. My apologies if that sounded rude. Matthew: It’s ok. -under my breath- I’d rather you not talk to me anyways. El: Luna is a child who has lost the Lord’s light. A path of darkness she walks. She has turned her back on me, denouncing me as her father and ran away. I have come to reclaim her. Serra: Well I am happy to hear that someone from her actual family has come searching for her. However, I’m afraid Luna has run away from here as well too. El: Have you any idea where she may have run off to? Serra: I don’t know. She didn’t say anything. She disappeared just as quickly as she came. I wish I could say the same for the PokeMart. Matthew: I agree with you on that. Serra: And as well as half the guys I been with. Matthew:… This family just doesn’t care about keeping secrets or stuff like that to yourselves do you? Bennett: Mom! Serra: Are you sure she didn’t say anything to you before she left Bennett? Bennett: What? Me? No. I mean, uhh… I don’t know… El: Hmm… I see. Miss Serra Voclain correct? I have traveled a great distance to get here and I am very much distressed at having missed her company. Would it be alright if I rested here for a short while? Serra: That shouldn’t be a problem. Actually, you came at an entertaining time. Matthew here is challenging me to a battle for my Gym Badge. El: Is that so? Serra: Bennett, show El to the spectators’ seats would you? Bennett: Sure mom. Serra: Matthew, I’ll prepare for your challenge so please meet me in the arena behind me. Best of luck to you. With that, everyone left. I stood there trying to take in everything that had just happened. This was a weird family and I wanted to get away from them as fast as possible. Well, to be honest, I just wanted to get away from Bennett and El. Serra wasn’t really a problem. Bennett creeped me out as did El. I took a deep breath and headed for the doors up ahead of me. I went through and defeated the 2 trainers that were in the room. This puzzle confused me. I went up to 1 of the trainers and asked for help. Matthew: Hey. Uhh, what’s this Gym’s puzzle? Trainer: You gotta try to break through the mirrors. You’ll be able to continue through when you find the right 1. Matthew: Ohh… Thanks. I went up to the wall which was all covered in mirrors. I somehow didn’t notice that when I was in here earlier. I went up to a corner side. I took a deep breath and punch the mirror in front of me. Luckily, the mirror shattered, revealing an entrance. But, that didn’t help the fact that it hurt the hell out of my hand. Matthew: Ow! Son of a- For the love of all that is good! Ugh! With my hand in pain, I went into the next room and battled 2 more trainers and was faced with another wall of mirrors. Unlike the last room, the 1st spot wasn’t the entrance to the next room. In fact, I almost cracked every mirror before finding the right 1. Matthew: Oh my Arceus. My hand hurts like a BITCH! In the next room, I saw Bennett and El. Somehow, seeing those 2 made the pain in my hand feel less painful. Bennett: Hey Matthew. You seem to be doing alright. Matthew: I suppose you can say that. Bennett: Well, I’ll cut to the chase. I would like to challenge you to a battle. Matthew: You would huh? You’re that leopard thing right? A person that likes insects. So that means you’ll be using Bug Type Pokemon right? Bennett: Correct. Just so you know, I always request to battle all of mother’s challengers before they officially battle her. Matthew: You’d throw them off a bit by using Bug Types while they’d be prepared to battle Ice Types. Nice strategy. Bennett: That’s not why I do it. I hope to be a Gym Leader 1 day and I believe this is the most efficient way of preparing myself. Matthew: Hmm. I suppose that makes sense. -in my thoughts- No WAY would I wanna challenge this dude for a badge for Bug Types. Too weird for me. Bennett: Now, allow me to test myself against you! El: Impressive battle young ones. Matthew: Thanks I guess. El: I believe that the both of you have been gifted by Arceus’ light. Bennett: I’m sorry sir. No disrespect but I don’t believe it’s any such “light.” I believe it is instead diligence and commitment. Matthew: Surprisingly, I agree with you kid. El: And such diligence will indeed take you far. Bennett, would you believe me if I told you that you were dreaming too small? Matthew: Wait what? Bennett: Excuse me? Too small sir? El: Indeed. You say you want to be a Gym Leader but I believe that with your skills and determination, you could go as far as to join the Elite 4! Matthew: Wait. How would you know that? And how could you even do- Bennett: Tha-That’s unthinkable! The Elite 4? Me? Really? I mean, it sounds fantastic but as you saw, I still have a long way to go before then. El: That maybe true young man but for someone of your dedication, I believe I could of service to you. Come. Let us leave your friend to their challenge. We should discuss the… details somewhere else. You may find yourself in a new position in due time. Bennett: I… I can’t believe it. Do you really mean that sir!? El: I do. Bennett: Then please! Let’s go right away Mr. El! Follow me! Bennett rushed passed me and out of the room. El followed but stopped and looked towards me. El: And Matthew, blessings to you as well. All is reflected in the eyes of the Lord. Please do remember this. Matthew: Uhh, sure. No problem. And with that, El walked off. This visit here just kept getting more crazy. Bennett could now become and Elite 4 Member and somehow this old dude was able to help him with that? I thought for a while about this and then it hit me like a Mach Punch to the gut. Matthew (talking to myself out loud): Somehow, El must be… part of the Elite 4. That’s… insane! I was still in shock but I then remembered why I was here in the 1st place. To get the Gym Badge from Serra. I walked up to the wall of mirrors and punched it. Again, I was unfortunate not to get it right the 1st hit. Luckily though, it didn’t take me as many tries as it did with the last room. I went to the next room and was finally in Serra’s Gym Arena. I walked up to her, holding my hand in pain. Serra: Welcome to my Gym Battling Arena Matthew. This is where… Whoa. What happened to your hand? Matthew: What kind of psychopath has a puzzle to where someone has to punch through mirrors to reach the Arena of a Gym Leader?! Serra: Wait. Wait. YOU punched through them? Matthew: Yea! What else was I supposed to do?! Serra:… You were supposed to use your Pokemon to use Rock Smash on them. Matthew:… Ohh… That actually makes more sense now… Serra: -sigh- Well look, I don’t mind waiting for a bit until you feel better and my son and that El person doesn’t seem like they’re here yet. So if you need some time to let your hand heal before the battle, go and get it healed up. Matthew: I think I may do that. Thanks. And sorry… I exited the arena and the whole house and walked towards the PokeCenter. I decided that instead of just sitting around waiting for my hand to heal that I’d go train my Pokemon. As I was walking, Godra Goodra popped out of its PokeBall. Matthew: Huh? Hey. What are you doing out of your ball? Sliggoo: Sliggoooooo. I looked onto the ground and saw a piece of Rare Candy. Before I could do anything, Godra Goodra slithered its way over and swalloed the candy down whole. Matthew: Hey! Spit that out! You don’t know where that’s been! I ran over but as I was about to get to it, she started to glow. I stopped in my tracks and jumped back a little from the sudden glowiness. I then watched as Sliggoo started to transform. Matthew: No way… It’s evolving! In a matter of minutes, Sliggoo was now a Goodra which finally made the nickname fit, might I add. I ran over to it and gave it a hug as it gave 1 back. When I stopped back, I felt the slime and stickiness all over me but that didn’t bother me. I had a Goodra on my team now. I was a bit confused on how it evolved though. Then it struck me. It was raining. And when Sliggoo levels up during a rainstorm, they evolve. Matthew: Well, I guess eating that Rare Candy wasn’t a bad thing. But please don’t do that again. Goodra: Goooodraaaa! Matthew: Alright. Let’s get you back into your PokeBall. I took out Godra Goodra’s PokeBall and returned it back. I then walked to the PokeCenter to heal my Pokemon and go train a bit before taking on Serra for her Gym Badge. Pokemon Team REBORN CHARACTER RATES

But who's gonna get the sexy girl voice from Twit? Dx

I kinda wish they would have done just a regular playthrough of this. They would still deff get frustrated but there isn't that possibility of them not finishing this game because all their Pokemon died.

Really? Half the time I've ever watched a Reborn playthrough, I hear people say it like that. I'm honestly surprised they got Kiki's name pronunciation right off the bat.

So what do you all think about the voices they gave to the main characters so far?

Yea but it's not like they would have only 1 Pokemon at that point... Maybe... Still not sure yet. xD

True. And they're also complaining about the money they get after winning battles. Wait until they see how long it takes for them to be able to buy anything above regular items. xD They're gonna be SO pissed! Haha. Btw, you should do a shiny count just for the hell of it.

IT'S HERE! IT'S TIME!

Short but yay! Another episode! And Shelly not being afraid of Vanilla anymore. Weird but good character development. Can't wait for more! As always, you're doing great at this!

I'm gonna have to look at the comments when I finish watching the video and see how many of them are gonna be like shocked and confused and whatnot with Reborn.

All I know is that it's gonna be later today. That's what Nappy said on twitter anyways.

Pansear is under the bridge while raining and Numel can be caught in the rain by the destroyed train station but only after acquiring the 2nd badge I believe.

I'm also pretty sure it's possible to get Grubbin in that apartment complex but I'm not sure the requirements to have that happen or if it's just random.

I doubt it. All their Penta-Ops have been Nuzlockes. I doubt this 1 is gonna be any different but the only way to find out is when the video comes out and you read the title of the episode. I wonder if they're gonna be shocked with the 21 different starter choices.

I hope they make it that far.
