Case 006 | Text | Backdated to October 26th

[canthearyou]

This is an official advisory.

Due to the recent outbreak of Ghost-Types, and what is believed to be a related string of reported possession incidents, the following has been advised:

-Limit unnecessary travel whenever possible. Swarms have been reported in multiple locations, so the more you travel, the greater possible risk of encountering one.
-If you must travel, try to do so only during the daylight hours. Whenever possible, travel in groups. Both of these should hopefully limit the chances of falling victim to one of these creatures
-If you encounter someone you believe to be afflicted by these creatures, remember that your first priority is your own safety. However, if you can do so safely, try to get them to a Pokémon Center for treatment. There has been at least one report of someone exhibiting signs of possession inflicting harm on their own person, and that should be prevented whenever possible.
-If they become hostile, attempt to find help immediately, whether it be another trainer, local law enforcement, or someone else. Do not engage someone you believe to be afflicted by these creatures if you cannot do so in a safe manner. Once again, we strongly emphasize that your first priority should be your own safety, so please seek outside assistance if the situation calls for it.

Due to resource issues, the Bureau is regrettably unable to assist all areas at this time. However, citizens in the greater Goldenrod-Saffron area are encouraged to call any member of the Bureau if they are in need of assistance. To contact an agent of the Bureau for assistance or further information, call any one of the following numbers:
>TRAINER ID: GORDON COLE
>TRAINER ID: DALE COOPER
>TRAINER ID: ALBERT ROSENFIELD


{OOC: All three of the agents will be handling calls, so just let us all know who you want in the subject line!}

I can't say for certain. I've only been here for a few months.

If you're capable of doing something like that while remaining safe and causing minimal harm to others, then I would say to give it a shot. If things get dangerous though, get help immediately.

[tendered]

Hm? A few months?! What's the average stay here?

I think I will. I'll be sure to hide and do it safely. I just hope my Sunkern is going to be able to accomplish it without being detected and that I can get them back to the Pokécenter. It'd be terrible if I wasn't able to get them back to the center for help!

[canthearyou]

I'm not really sure. Some people have been here for at least a year.

Just remember to be careful. If things get rough, get out of there and GET HELP! I'm sure there's someone around there that can help you out.

[tendered]

A year? Oh no... I don't have that much spare time.... [ Devastated inside, tbh. ]

Understood! It'd be very counterproductive if I needed rescuing because I tried to help someone else. I'll make sure to stake things out in places with a lot of people! [ She's craftier than what one may think. ]

[canthearyou]

I'm currently under the impression that the year stay isn't the standard. There doesn't seem to be any sort of guaranteed length of stay from what I've heard.

And I'm glad that you seem to have a handle on the situation. Would you mind giving me your name, so I can let the others know that we have someone helping out. Your location too please, so I can let them know where.

[tendered]

So you just arrive and go home whenever...? So, it could be anywhere from tomorrow to twenty years before I leave! [ The latter part scares her. I mean, she only has Kira and wouldn't all of her other friends worry she's missing...? What about Aizen? Would he find another lieutenant! ]

Oh! I'm Momo Hinamori! I'm in Goldenrod! I'm the lieutenant of squad five, back in my home, so I'm definitely qualified. [ Kinda... ]

[canthearyou]

It's nice to meet you Ms. Hinamori, but I wish the circumstances were better. When you say squad five and lieutenant, are those military terms? Are you in some form of the military?

And that whenever does appear to be accurate so far. I wish I could provide a better answer, but at the moment, I can't.

[tendered]

Yes. That's right. I'm a Shinigami. We basically make sure the death and rebirth cycle doesn't collapse on itself.

Hmm. It's okay! You just arrived here and you already know a lot about the world! It's very impressive!

[canthearyou]

I'm not familiar with that organization or its purpose, but we're thankful for the assistance.

And I couldn't have learned these things without help. The people here have been very helpful, and luckily there's a few people from home who took the time to get me up to speed with the situation.

[tendered]

It's okay! You're probably from a different world than me, or you're still alive. [ Either or it's.... kinda equal to Momo, sadly. ]

Ah! I see! The people here are very helpful. I'm glad you have someone from your world to help you out. That sounds like a fantastic luxury! I just woke up here with a friend close by, but he's from the past and is so different.... but we've both been making sense of this situation. As much sense that could be made of this, anyways!

[canthearyou]

Still alive last time I checked. And I completely get what you mean about this place making sense. It really doesn't, but we have to get used to it.
