are there any awesome places to see or anything like that?

[ ACTION - VIOLET CITY ]

[It's not surprising that Mondo's out training on the outskirts of the city. What is surprising is that he isn't fighting his Pokémon today. He's ditched the usual coat today and if one looks closely, they can see a massive bruise over his shoulders and leading down toward his back. That might be from fighting his Pokémon. Maybe. But that's not what he's doing today - today he's got his Pokémon out, situated in teams of two facing off against each other.]

Alright, we're gonna practice double battling today. Ryder! Quit trying to punch Pierce, he's your partner!

[The Scrafty shoots him a dirty look, but she knocks it off. At least until Mondo's back is turned, then she socks the Lucario in the gut and knocks him over.]

Lex, Tory! If I see the two of you biting at each other again I swear I'm gonna stick you in the fucking PC and never let you see the light of day again! You got that?

[The Sharpedo and Deino pull faces once his back is turned, but at least they seem to be listening.]

Alright, on my mark... go!

[...This can only end well.]

there are some pretty awesome sights here, yeah!
from the sounds of it, you might like cycling road over here in kanto.
i think they allow motorcycles in addition to regular bikes, if some of the native trainers there were any indication.

[So. Many. Bikers.]

but in addition to that, if you haven't seen them already there are the ruins of alph and sprout tower in violet city. (the only good things in violet city, tbh)
and then the two towers in ecruteak are pretty cool too, especially if you are into ghosts and legends.
what else... oh! the safari zone is pretty cool! that's over in cianwood.
and the dragon's den in blackthron if you are into dragons.
really, it just depends on your interests! there are a lot of awesome things here!

(also i think there might be a sauna in blackthron? there's a hot springs, at least. those are sort of close enough to the same thing, right?)

[WELL HEY NEW FRIEND Jin's also wearing his fair share of bruises, but he seems to have gotten the bloodstains removed and the rips repaired from his usual outfit (which is good because the alternative is a banana hammock and no one wants to see that), and he's gonna just be perched on a low-hanging branch over head, grinning like Peter Pan. Did he sneak up on you? Because he and his shinobro have been camped out on the outskirts of town the whole time they've been here.]

Oowada it was? So yer team's a crew o' real go-getters, I see!

[He laughs.]

ASK ASAHINA OUT

[Hi, Mondo. c: ]

[Someone else is having difficulty training his Pokemon too.

Rude's getting a bit irritated at his Rocket starters. He can't release them anywhere near normal trainers without one of them acting out. It's starting to seriously hamper him everytime he takes them for training, which is why he's decided to try his luck outside the city.

It's only a matter of time before he hears the noise of a double battle. Having finished off a couple of wild Pokemon, he's going to give his guys a rest and check out the source of the commotion.

...huh. It's Oowada. Rude raises an eyebrow at that bruise, but opts to stay quiet and watch the match first.

While I can't say I approve of everything on that list, kyoudai, if anyone happens to know where a sauna is, I expect you to tell me about it!

[BECAUSE CLEARLY, THAT IS THE IMPORTANT THING.]

[ Oh, guess who else was out training? Both herself and her Pokemon, but she's just about done for the day and is just tugging on her khaki jacket when she notices Mondo up ahead in her path. She walks a bit closer to the training spectacle while her Axew and Luxio move a bit closer.

She's only vaguely heard about double battles, but hasn't participated in them. Perhaps the guy will be kind enough to let her watch what he's doing? While patting her face dry of some sweat with a towel that was slung on her shoulder, yes. ]

That's a pretty long list. Kind of hard core.

Also you don't have anything on there about enjoying the summer weather or going to the beach.

Or finding the best food to eat. [Priorities. Asahina has them.]

That's a really long list. And it reads a lot like I'd expect one to read for a friend of mine if he were to write to do lists. Good luck.

A date, huh? :o
Anybody in mind, then?

And you're only exploring Johto - no Kanto? :( Kanto is nice too, you know!

[Typing is too much damn work, so Blake switches to video]

Is there even such thing as motorcycles around here? If there are, it's still a bad idea. Those things are deathtraps.

[Get stronger...huh... Chihiro actually wavers over saying something about this for a long moment or two. But for now he leaves it, since Mondo didn't mean to post that list in the first place.]

I'd like to get a computer...or a few of them. I'd like to see what I could do with the technology here... Though, I'm not sure if that fits Oowada-kun's interests, so much.

I really want to go to Goldenrod soon, though, and I read that Olivine is pretty, since it's right by the sea.

You swear a lot don't you?

[And guess who just happens to stumble upon this impending disaster? That's right, this guy! And his Hitmonlee, too. Yusuke wasn't exactly planning on crashing Mondo's training session - in fact, he was actually heading out into the wilderness to do some training himself, and is decked out in the sweats and t-shirt to prove it. It just sort of happens, and while he normally would've just walked on by (because it's not like he's never run into someone doin' their own thing on his way out of town before), the sight of a freakishly tall muscular dude with a ridiculous orange pompadour is enough to stop him dead in his tracks. It's a good thing Mondo's back is turned when Yusuke arrives on the scene, because the look on his face when, for a whole heart-stopping five seconds, he thinks his best friend managed to sneak into Johto without him knowing can only be described as pure, unadulterated shock.

Of course, it isn't long after that initial "holy shit" reaction that he realizes that this isn't actually Kuwabara he's looking at: the dude's hair is way crazier than Kuwabara's, for one thing, and for another, his voice isn't nearly as screechy. Besides, who is he kidding? As if Kuwabara's smart enough to sneak all the way here to Violet. That doofus wouldn't even be able to sneak his way through a room full of teddy bear fluff.

Anyway, now that he's duly been freaked out by some random stranger, Yusuke decides to resume his trek out into the woods! ... or at least, that was the plan, anyway. What he actually ends up doing is staying put and watching Mondo try to control his Pokemon, because as weird as it feels to just... suddenly show up and start creepin' on some other person's training, he's kind of interested in seeing if this "double battling" thing What's-His-Face was yelling about'll actually pan out. If it does, he'll take some mental notes and try it out for himself later; if not, hey, at least it'll be fun to watch the whole thing go all to hell. HEH HEH HEH.

Between himself and his Hitmonlee, Yusuke is the only one amused by the spectacle Mondo and his Pokemon are creating. His Hitmonlee, Kosugi, is more unimpressed by it than anything else, and looks it, too, with his folded arms and knitted brow. He seems to be judging Ryder in particular pretty hard - if Ryder happens to look over in their direction, she will probably notice right away that she's getting the stank eye. :| NOT IMPRESSED WITH YOUR SHIT, RYDER. Whatcha gonna do about it?]

That's a long list...

Are you and Ishimaru-kun planning on having another sauna competition?

[ Please don't drag him into observing the competition

or make him participate what if he catches your stupid ]
