diosmio | First Round

[The subject of today's video is Dio's Zubat which flutters in and out of the view of the camera. He's still not used to actually filming anything, so keeping it on screen is hardly his main concern at the moment.

As for where he is, he's not stupid. He read the evil villain handbook and figured it's not a good idea to show off anything pertaining to that (not that he minds showing off), so once the day's training was done (as if they could teach him anything), he decided the grass just outside town would be the best place to learn how to use this weird thing.]

Tell me, what exactly am I meant to do with such a creature? Where I come from, these things are usually seen as pests, if not worse, but if this handbook is to believed, I'm actually supposed to care for the thing.

[He'll omit sharing with the viewer which handbook he's read.]

I don't doubt that's the case, but still, being newly arrived to this world, I would like some reassurance. After all, if I'm meant to travel the land, collecting badges with such a baffling creature, it would comfort me to know someone else has done the same.

[And perhaps they'll tell him of their Pokemon and their accomplishments as well. After all, he's one of their own. A trainer. Why wouldn't they share with him?]

Oh, and please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Dio Brando. I look forward to meeting your acquaintance.

[...and using these fools to climb higher and higher in this ridiculous Pokemon world.]

Hardly. I've yet to meet anyone who can claim they've done anything of note with a similar creature.

[Apparently Zubats aren't on everyone's list of Pokemon to raise. Go figure.]

Ah, you mean zubat specifically...?

Well, yes. While it'd be of interest, knowing other people have done the same with different creatures really doesn't tell me anything that I can do with this one.

Well, your original question was rather vague. Though while I haven't raised a zubat specifically, I've found that generally an individual pokemon's personality is a greater factor than its species.

Its personality? Where I come from, how well they're trained matters more. Even the most playful mutt won't slobber on a random stranger if it's been properly trained.

[And that's spoken with the authority of someone who knows what they're talking about. Which is a little silly because he really has no idea what he's talking about.]

Ah, I suppose temperament would be a better term.... but either way, it's really about finding the best training method for the individual pokemon, rather than assuming that because it's a particular type the same things will always work. Gyarados are known to typically be rather aggressive, for example, yet a friend of mine has one that's quite timid, so needless to say his training methods would likely differ from others with the same species.

Isn't that much obvious?

[He's just saying. Different approaches for different things seems like it would be common sense.]

One would think, but you were asking for information, after all.

Of which you've provided very little. I must say, you seem entirely unsuited for welcoming new arrivals to this place.

Well, if you'd wanted a welcome, you could have said so, rather than asking an ambiguous question that you seemed to already be well aware of the answer to.

And yet everyone else has been incredibly welcoming and friendly unlike you who seems to have attempted to be difficult from the start. However, it doesn't matter. I believe there's a simple solution to this problem.

[He's pretty sure if he pushes this button it'll disconnect him from the call, which is exactly what he, Dio, does.]
