First Round | Video
[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.]

[lancer has no idea that someone is karma]

Is it really that bad?
[It can't be, right? He's meant to be the best
like no one ever was. So he can't be saddled with something useless.][video]
[video]
So it's common vermin I've been saddled with?
[He's not happy about this. It could be worse. It could be the only Pokemon he has, but he figured the bat would make for a less assuming introduction than that...mask...thing. He plans to spend quite some time figuring out what the hell is up with that, but it didn't really seem like something he should advertise to a world full of strangers.]
That hardly seems fair.
[But life isn't fair, so he'll find a way to deal with it. Either by making something of it, or ditching it for something that's actually fitting of someone like him.
Trubbish maybe.][video]
[A shrug. Poor kid, who really deserved a Zubat for a starter?]
Who knows, maybe it gets better.
[video]
It had better.
[Whoops, now he just looks angry about this. Let's try and fix that. Keyword being try.]
After all, how else would I become the greatest trainer if it doesn't prove to be a useful companion?
[There. Does that make him sound more like everyone else and less like somebody who's starter might meet with some sort of unfortunate Pokemon accident?]
