# 0_0 Suit Actor
# 0_1 Future Being
# 0_2 Professor VAR(256, 1): Could this be...
(...Is this the future?...)
# 0_3 Ledian: Hmm... What's this?
You're a strange-looking Human.
You look kind of like a Scientist, but
I've never seen your type before.
# 0_4 Professor VAR(256, 1): It's a person...
I'd better try not to do too much damage...
# 0_5 Ledian: That dumb Human is holding back.
It doesn't want to hurt another of its\f
own kind.
Hmph. Such a common trait among
the weaker species. How foolish.
# 0_6 Professor VAR(256, 1): Are you telling
me you don't care?
You wouldn't mind hurting another Pokémon?
# 0_7 Ledian: How could you obey a Human
like that? Such disgraceful Pokémon!\f
I'll eliminate you all!
# 0_8 Professor VAR(256, 1): I don't need
to defeat the people you're controlling\f
to protect my Pokémon!
# 0_9 Ledian: That's enough talk from you!
Is that the Scientist Ability?
Running your mouth?
# 0_10 Ledian: Stop right there, Human!
# 0_11 Professor VAR(256, 1): A Pokémon?!
# 0_12 Ledian: It's not often that we get
wild Humans showing up in town...
They're dangerous and need to be
eliminated quickly!
# 0_13 Professor VAR(256, 1): A talking Pokémon?
Did it just release a person from that Ball?!
What's going on here?
It's like everything is backward!
# 0_14 Ledian: Huh?
Humans using Pokémon?\f
What is this madness?
# 0_15 Professor VAR(256, 1): Wait!
Tell me what's going on here!
# 0_16 Ledian: What's going on?
Here's how things work here: you lowly
Humans go into these Human Balls, and then\f
you do as your Trainer Pokémon commands!
Wild Humans who won't go into the Balls
are to be eliminated! It's simple!
# 0_17 Professor VAR(256, 1): What?
In the world of the future, Pokémon\f
catch people?!
# 0_18 Ledian: The future? Are you trying to tell
me that you come from the past?
# 0_19 Professor VAR(256, 1): Well...
(...Should I tell this Pokémon about
how I traveled through time?\f
It probably won't believe me...)
# 0_20 Ledian: Or are you just a dirty lying Human?
Lying is cowardice! Cowardice is a crime!
You must be eliminated!
# 0_21 Professor VAR(256, 1): Help!
# 0_22 Ledian: Begging for your life, are you?
What a pathetic Human! I think I'll take\f
my time eliminating you!
Come out, Black Belt! Teach this
cowardly Human a lesson!
# 0_23 Professor VAR(256, 1): Can we talk?
# 0_24 Ledian: Talk? Why should a Pokémon
talk to a pathetic Human like you?\f
How ridiculous!
# 0_25 Professor VAR(256, 1): I'm not lying!
# 0_26 Ledian: How could that be true?
You must be lying. Lying is a crime.\f
Criminals must be eliminated.\f
Black Belt, take care of this liar!
# 0_27 Ledian: What's wrong, Human?
You can't even fight back?
# 0_28 Professor VAR(256, 1): I don't want
to fight! Stop this!
# 0_29 Ledian: If you don't want to fight,
you'd better release that VAR(258, 0)!
# 0_30 Professor VAR(256, 1): I can't do that...
# 0_31 Ledian: I didn't think so!
Humans are so weak. You've only got
two arms, and you can't even fly!
Pokémon must make great bodyguards
for you Humans. Or do you treat them\f
more like tools for your own convenience?
# 0_32 Professor VAR(256, 1): That's not true!
Pokémon are my friends!
# 0_33 Ledian: A likely story.
Anyway, Humans like you are simply tools
for us Pokémon.
You're just toys who battle each other for
our enjoyment! It doesn't matter if you\f
break--there are plenty of replacements!
# 0_34 Professor VAR(256, 1): That's terrible...
# 0_35 Black Belt: You...
Human who use Pokémon...\f
You understand me?
# 0_36 Professor VAR(256, 1): You can speak?
# 0_37 Black Belt: Stuck in Ball...
Treated like thing...
Not talk ever. Not talk good.
But must talk you...
You say you from past.
I believe.
# 0_38 Professor VAR(256, 1): Thank you...
I appreciate it!
# 0_39 Black Belt: Long ago. Bug Pokémon get
strong. Evolution Stone make strong.\f
They take over.\f
E-lim-i-nate many human...
# 0_40 Professor VAR(256, 1): What?!
What's an Evolution Stone?
# 0_41 Black Belt: Evolution Stone...
Make Bug Pokémon very smart...\f
Pokémon strong and smart...\f
No chance for human...
# 0_42 Professor VAR(256, 1): I never
imagined the future could be like this...
# 0_43 Ledian: Black Belt! Silence!
Stop yapping with that other Human!
You're nothing more than a tool!
Do as I say or face the consequences!
# 0_44 Professor VAR(256, 1): I'm only telling
the truth! Please, believe me!
# 0_45 Ledian: Even with the superior technology
of the Bug-type Pokémon, we haven't been\f
able to achieve time travel. There's no way\f
a mere Human could have done so!
# 0_46 Professor VAR(256, 1): But I did! I came
here on a time machine of my own invention!
# 0_47 Ledian: You're just lying to save yourself.
It's rare to see a Human as clever as you.\f
That makes you dangerous.
I'd better eliminate you for good measure!
# 0_48 Professor VAR(256, 1): That's not fair!
# 0_49 Ledian: Come on, Black Belt!
Hurry up and eliminate this scum.
I'm done wasting my time talking to
this dirty Human!
# 0_50 Ledian: How did you do that?!
You protected your Pokémon without\f
hurting my Black Belt!
Hmm...
Interesting. You are an unusual Human.
OK, I'll spare you from elimination.\f
I'll also believe your wild story.
But first...
Sit still and let me catch you!
# 0_51 Professor VAR(256, 1): No!
What's this? Some kind of string?
Get it off me! Untie this string now!
Let me go!
# 0_52 Professor VAR(256, 1): Ack!
The more I try to break free, the more\f
stuck I get...
The powerful sticky string of a
Bug-type Pokémon...
# 0_53 Professor VAR(256, 1): Please!
I don't mean to harm any of you!\f
You've had your fun!\f
I just want to get back to my own time!
# 0_54 Ledian: You think so?
Unfortunately for you, I'll be the
judge of when I've had my fun...
# 0_55 Professor VAR(256, 1): What more
do you want from me?
# 0_56 Ledian: Hee hee hee...
(...We couldn't make a time machine with
our own technology, but if I could get my\f
appendages on this Human's time machine,\f
I'd be a hero...)
# 0_57 Professor VAR(256, 1): Come on!
Say something!
# 0_58 Ledian: OK, then...
(...If I can capture Humans from all the
different eras, we Bug-type Pokémon will\f
prosper even more...)
# 0_59 Professor VAR(256, 1): Stop!
Get away from my Bag!
# 0_60 Ledian: What's all this junk?
Dirt and rocks... Plant seeds...\f
It's just a bunch of garbage!
Hmm... What's this?
Looks like a Human Ball.
Something's different, though...
I've got it! Could this be...
# 0_61 Professor VAR(256, 1): Oh no...
Not the temporal transport...
# 0_62 Ledian: Bingo! So, this is your time machine.
Temporal transport, you called it?
Impressive to have fit it into a capsule
this small...
# 0_63 And so Ledian captured me and seized
my temporal transport.
However, I would not give up so easily.
Not while I still needed to deliver these\f
precious research samples back to my own\f
time... I had to keep fighting.
# 0_64 Professor VAR(256, 1): Argh... Urgh...
# 0_65 Ledian: Stupid, pathetic, helpless Human...
I'm starting to feel sorry for you, so I'll\f
let you go...
Entertain me by scampering away like the
cowardly fool you are.
# 0_66 Professor VAR(256, 1): Eeek!
# 0_67 Ledian: Constantly eliminating Humans
like you gets old after a while...
So I need to mix things up for a change of
pace, or else I'd get bored with my toys!
# 0_68 Somehow, I made it away with my life.
Afterward, I had to lie low by hiding inside\f
caves and patches of tall grass in order to\f
avoid the gaze of Pokémon who aimed to\f
defeat or capture humans like me...
# 0_69 Sometimes I stop to think about the
Pokémon of my own time...how they must\f
feel if they don't want to be caught...
I'm in a constant state of fear and
unease, with never a moment's rest.\f
This life is only pain and struggle...
# 0_70 Professor VAR(256, 1): Ack! I went too far!
# 0_71 Ledian: What's this?
You've broken my Black Belt!
Oh well, no great loss... I'll just have
to go catch another Human...
# 0_72 Professor VAR(256, 1): Oh... Oh no...
It was an accident!\f
How could I have done such a thing\f
to a fellow human...
# 0_73 Ledian: You toys break too easily.
Hey, I know! I'll just catch you\f
to replace that one! Human Ball, go!
# 0_74 I passed out from the shock of defeating
a fellow human. Ledian caught me, and\f
I became one of her Humans.
And then...
# 0_75 Ledian: VAR(256, 1), I choose you!
Hurry up and eliminate that Human!
# 0_76 Professor VAR(256, 1): Groaarr!
# 0_77 Ledian: Good job, VAR(256, 1)!
Hee hee hee... You've grown quite
strong, indeed!\f
I'll treat you to a special grooming today!
# 0_78 Ledian could be very cruel, but she also
could be nice to Humans who pleased her.
Over time, I gradually became more and
more loyal to Ledian...to the point that\f
I would do anything to assist her...
# 0_79 A world where Humans are used and
controlled by Pokémon...
If this is the reality of the future,
I have no choice but to accept it.
Sometimes I wonder what became of
VAR(258, 0), who was my Pokémon\f
in our own time...
Are you out there having grand adventures
as a Trainer Pokémon?
