Pokemon Obsidian [IT'S OVER, PLOT SYNOPSIS ON PAGE 38]

[engineclock]

Gypsum again. Also, quietly hum the theme song, the original one. You obviously know the words by heart.

[Xine8]

> GO to the lab and tell her your name is "Gorblesnatch von Hugedick"

[Eversist]

Her name is clearly Damaris.

How about Opal?

Opal and Obsidian. D'awwww.

[Iridium]

Pikachu,Prof. Hemlock named his daughters after pokemon.What a wierdo.

"his"? So what were those breast-looking things, pocket protectors?

[Lord Paradise]

Her husband is also a professor, maybe?

[SleepingOrange]

>Ebony

[Iridium]

>How 'bout Ivory?

[Eversist]

I was thinking Ivory as well.

Anaïs is a white marble.

[tagonizer]

Alabastor.

[Eversist]

Now that's a Gym Leader name right thurr.

[Iridium]

I was thinking Ivory as well.

Anaïs is a white marble.

I kinda like this too.

[Ghosty]

Anaïs is a white marble.

I kinda like this too.

[font='courier new', courier]Yes! [/font]

[Hecthur]

How about Opal?

> Gypsum.

Anaïs is a white marble.

Surely I'm not reading this right, he thought, briefly.

A sudden weight came over his chest and he found it hard to breathe as he leapt up and grabbed his backpack, containing the medicine, five pokeballs (He'd heard about trainers starting without any and found the idea ridiculous), his trusty knife, and a few other odds and ends.

He ran outside, passing through the empty kitchen. His mother was still out at her latest boyfriend's house. The early morning thunderstorm surprised him briefly, but he pressed through wet and the cold nonetheless. Lightning struck loudly close by, on the route leading out of town, but he didn't even startle. He went over the contents of the message in his mind again as he ran to the Pokemon lab.

Hey Sid. The three of us are starting our Pokemon adventure today, thought you might want to come by and see the Pokemon we got. I'm never totally sure when it's okay to come over.

Catch ya later,

Opal, Gypsum, and Anaïs

Gypsum: 'Sup, Sid? Nice hat. Too bad about th'rest of ya, though.
Anaïs: We got Pokemon today! All three of the starters for this year!
Obsidian: All three?
Dude, c'mon. You're making this too easy on me.
Opal: I think he wanted one.
Oh no!
...All year.
Oh. Damn, dude, we didn't know.
Our mom will be back in a second. She might be able to provide you with an alternative.
Yeah!
That'd be cool, if you could start your adventure with us. I mean, not that-
Cheer up! I'm sure she'll think of something.
Which one did you want to get?
Heh, Yeah, Sid, which one do you want?
Grass, fire, or water?

[Eversist]

You totally wanted water, because water is the shit best.

[Iridium]

You were gonna take a look at your options before you decided. Makes more sense to choose when you see the full spread of what's being offered, right?

[nixshadow]

"Obviously water, I made a list of pros and cons and everything"

[Baphomet]

You were gonna take a look at your options before you decided. Makes more sense to choose when you see the full spread of what's being offered, right?

[Yamtaggler]

>Fire, to match the burning fury that spills out of your manly soul.

I'm guessing that the "Alternative" is none of the above.

[folly]

>Force the sisters to get you a Rattata.

[bhomer2]

kill them and make a tent out of their skin.

[aimless-void]

> Well, to be specific, you really wanted a Charmander...the adorable little things...

[Xelkelvos]

Which Pokemon are those types?

Alternatively, go for a Psychic, a Dark or a Fighting type. (lol, Alternate Triangle)

[Zatch]

You want dat fire pokeymon, no matter what, except if it's Torchic, cuz he gay.

[Asmodemus]

> The fire girl Pokemon, though you'd want to see what that is first of course.

> You're okay with this, if you get even a common normal type pokemon you're good enough to become a great trainer anyway. So long as it can actually attack unlike a normal magikarp.

At the start of your Pokemon adventure, you will be prompted to choose a starter Pokemon. There are three choices, one Grass type, one Fire type, and one Water type. You will only be able to take one, and these species do not appear anywhere else in the game. the three Pokemon are:

Grass- Topidian, the Grass Snake Pokemon.
Fire - Coaleo, the Tiny Lion Pokemon.
Water - Drophin, the Dolphin Pokemon.
Note that if you are playing Obsidian version, you will not be allowed to choose from these three. Also note that when the Hemlock Sisters ask you which type of Pokemon you would choose if given the choice, they are not actually asking about the Pokemon.
