If this turns into some sort of gender equality shindig I will animate a tiny "flips table, throws GM hat on ground, moonwalks out of room" avatar, I swear it.
Me? Nah, I'd say the ol' noggin if fine. Must've dozed off in the sun and here I am! Just thought I'd wax a bit on your situation. Maybe a trip back to Yew Town will jog your memory?
Small change, looks like. Maybe 100 Poké, or so. Buy you a couple cheap meals so you're better off then me! I was foraging, or trying to, when I got attacked.
Not opportunistic, really. There are Pokemon who prefer to stay in the wild rather than congregate in towns but they usually aren't so aggressive. I mean, we used to trade stuff to them every now and then when they passed by, but now its like they can't act civilized, or even talk. They just attack and attack until they are knocked out, or worse...
Or at least that's what I heard. I'd never seen any until now. I hoped it was just tales to keep kids from straying too far afield or something. Anyway, if you want to go to Yew Town, I can show you the way. It's a pretty friendly place, usually!
"Oh, ha ha ha. Nice try, buddy, but some of us aren't so self-aggrandizing we feel the need to narrate our entire train of thought out loud."
The Eevee turns away from Rook with a scowl and faces the Bulbasaur. "Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but a place that's not, y'know, swarming with homicidal maniacs sounds pretty good right now!"
Whoa there friend, might wanna save that temper for any other ferals we come across. No need to jump down a fella's throat when he's just tryin to understand your situation!
: Yeah, you calm down, Miss Eevee. There's only room enough for one hothead in this place, and I've already got the name Kaboom!
: Even though I'm not really that hotheaded....
: The Pineco rocked slightly, deep in thought. Was it possible that their group could have a brash and reckless risk-taker that wasn't the Pineco? Did he have what it took to step out from the shadow of his people, to take the path of non-exploding, and to reclaim the glory of- oh wait, Eevee can evolve!
Oh, I know! You're probably going to be a Flareon! That's why you're all flamin' and troublesome.
: Kaboom appears to concentrate for several seconds of intense recollection.
: "Hello there! Welcome to the world of POKEMON! My name is OAK! People call me the POKEMON PROF! This world is inhabited by creatures called POKEMON! For some people, POKEMON are pets. Others use them for fights. Myself... I study POKEMON as a profession."
: Strange, what the heck was that? Must have been something I heard before all this happened.
]While the others talk about whatever the hell they're talking about, Enki ruminates. He remembers his mother and father, his tribe, the deep, underground pools they called home. He remembers a whole lot of Zubat. However, he can't recall how he got here, specifically. He thought it was just a side-effect of his ancestry, but with the others suffering similar effects, he's not too sure.
He catches something about going to a village, and he walks closer to the group.
It takes a few seconds wigging his feet before he remembers that he's still upside down.
The group eventually sallies forth left-wards through the forest, towards the much vaunted Yew Town. Bulbasaur seems content to be almost annoyingly inquisitive throughout the trip.
So how many of those missiles can you shoot before running out, does it hurt? I've never seen someone use Poké as a weapon before, that's weird. Speaking of weird, how come you are so slow, Enki? I can't imagine how you got here from where ever you're from at that pace. Are those bandages part of your wrists, what about those pants? Can you take them off? I mean, uh, if you wanted to, not right now.
He also seems to feel like he ought to be a proper representative of his apparent hometown, quick to provide an amateur tour-guide speech.
So like, Yew Town is really old. It's on a big hill that's near the ocean-
It occurs to Daryl that the salty ocean air wafting inland might have been the odd smell he detected while up in the treetops.
-and has a biiiiig cliff. There's lots of caves beneath the town where Pokemon used to live but since most of us are Grass or Bug types, we like to live in treehouses so we can get fresh air and sunlight. The caves get used for storage, or really cheap housing.
I live in the caves.
Oh, oh, and the town is lead by Queen Kakuna! Her dad was a pretty cool king but he died last season so its been up to her to run things and I think she does a really good job even though some people think her uncle Heracross should take over because he's more experienced. He doesn't seem very nice though, so I think Kakuna should be the leader! Anyway, Yew Town used to be only Bug types but they had trouble with raiders from the Roanock clans to the West. Since they are all Rock types all the Bugs had a terrible time but then us Grass types came and helped them drive them back into the mountains so now Yew Town has both types. Bug types are the support and industry and Grass types are the muscle and defense! It's a beneficial arrangement for the both of us!
Oh hey! When we get there I can help you find a place to stay if you want! I can also tell you where to find people. I know lots of Pokemon! Maybe one of them can help you with your memory stuff. Also you only have, like, 100 Poké. No offense but you should proooobably do something about that.
Well, Bug types are really good at healing cuts and scrapes, but since you're talking about your memory I'd talk to . Even though she looks kinda like a Grass type, she's really Psychic! Cool, huh?
Enki holds on to the small break in the Grass Type's incessant chatter like a Charmander clutching a float. Sweet water, how do you stuff so much wind into something so small? He desperately hopes what the residents of this village are more taciturn.
"I say we should secure food, or income. After we patch up Mr. Saur, of course."

I mean your games are usually pretty much sausage celebratory events, but dang
And what do you mean "my" games?

Bulbasaur replies, gesturing off to the left.
She was from, from-
shit
am I getting senile?
she pats her face in a panic.
am I old enough to be senile?
"You... you don't remember anything either?"
"Oh, ha ha ha. Nice try, buddy, but some of us aren't so self-aggrandizing we feel the need to narrate our entire train of thought out loud."
The Eevee turns away from Rook with a scowl and faces the Bulbasaur. "Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but a place that's not, y'know, swarming with homicidal maniacs sounds pretty good right now!"
"Right, sorry. Just a little stressed right now."
She turns to the big, green pinecone with eyes. "Flamin' and troublesome, huh? Well, I'll take that as a compliment, I guess."
He catches something about going to a village, and he walks closer to the group.

Is this guy gonna bust out a fruit basket and the full welcoming package? Sheesh
"Hey, so, uh, Bulbasaur, right? Is there anyone here- a doctor or a psychic or something- who'd be able to help with the whole amnesia thing?"
