We've discovered something awesome.
There was another Dimension burst while we were at base, the old shop, and afterwards, some of the videos from the piles and piles left from when the shop was in business had numbers added to their spines. They all had a letter in front of them, like 'J13' and 'K27' or 'S43' or 'H22'. We've found out that these are the initial of the region, and the number of the TM. We tried a few out, and a couple of Eevees are now happily trying out Secret Power (The Secret Garden) Rattata now knows Dig (Holes (What was an old stack of videos doing with THAT on it? Too recent to be put on video, surely?))
Anyway, that's about it. Oh, and there was a lost and confused Shinx causing some accidents after the burst, but we calmed it down and helped it out. It's stayed in the area, and we make sure it's cared for. Bye for now!

The sword and the stones! Part 3
The dogs landed, growling at the birds. Happiny had been blocked from reaching us, but Vaporeon made use of her now much longer tail to whip a berry thrown by Happiny towards Glaceon, and one upwards, towards the roof. Skarmory, who seemed to be leading the pack, launched a steel wing at it's new foes, but was struck by an ember from Flareon. It reeled, peeling off into the sky. The three dogs split up, dashing off in different directions. Water guns, Thundershocks and Embers flew through the air. Suddenly, nearly all the pokémon sprang up, restored by Happiny. At once attacks were shooting out at every angle. Charmeleon and Flareon were backing Skarmory into a corner (as well as they could considering it could fly) Butterfree let off a burst of confusion in the face of two attackers who, confused, crashed into each other, then the ground. Hitmonchan was felling Murkrows one by one as Snover kept then from attacking as a flock. Pichu and Jolteon were launching a combined attack of thundershock, with Pichu sitting on Jolteon's back, giggling as it's cheeks sparked with delight. Jolteon was directing their boosted, sending his now larger attack at waves of birds, bringing them down two or three at a time. Glaceon sent out a wave of Icy wind, weakening and slowing a large group, enabling Onix to slam them with his tail. To my left, Sammy was cheering on her Oddish as it's poison became too much for another Taillow. 'Yes! Kanto 3, Wherever-these-blue-ones-come-from, nothing!'
I had to find Rattata. I looked at the roof he'd been thrown onto. It belonged to the Town Hall.
'Great, of all the places.....Butterfree! With me!'
We dodged past Vaporeon taking down birds heading for the halls windows, and the scared and confused faces peering out from them, and hammered on the door. A man opened it a crack, looking nervously out. 'Hello? Ah, you're one of the young men with the monsters aren't you? What do you-'
'Sleep powder!'
'Huh? uuuuuuuuuhhhh......'thud.
Push door open. Run inside. Head for stairs. Wave at Mayor. Find next staircase. Keep running. Butterfree was using sleep powder on anyone we encountered. Nobody was going stop us. Then there was a crashing noise, and two Spearow flew round the corner. I kept running. 'Confusion!'
Butterfree hit one, but the other dived for me. I turned a shoulder to it defesively. My shard shoulder. There was a faint crunch, and Spearow flapped backwards, dazed. I didn't stop to wonder, I just swatted at it, making it slam into a wall, and with Butterfree having finished with the other one, we made our way to the roof.
Rattata was munching on the berry, and looking happier. He jumped to his paws, pleased, as we came over. Then Chatot and Skarmory flew overhead. Chatot was yelling 'Kanto 3! Kanto 3!' but Skarmory went for Rattata. 'Rattata, use Flame wheel!' Rattata ran forward as a trail of fire curved up and over him to create a flamewheel. He caused Skarmory to dodge downwards, and Rattata leapt off the roof after it. We rushed forwards after him, hoping he was ok. He'd landed on Skarmory, but none of the fire attacks were doing enough damage. It was a high level, and I'm pretty sure it had been using Roost. Sammy and Oddish had used Sweet scent to stop the birds that were escaping. Onix peered at me, and touched his head to the side of the building, letting me run down it's back like stairs. Thanking it, I saw Chatot, out of range, flying off into the sky, and could just make out it yelling 'Rattata use flamewheel, rattata use flamewheel!'
Rattata was calling out to some of the other Pokémon. Charmeleon, nodding, touched it's tail to Flareons, who began to glow with a red aura. All the eevees, Jolteon, Vaporeon, and Glaceon were making a semicircle around them, and a clapping noise was coming from them. I scanned Skarmory as Rattata leapt forward. 'Ouch, level 45. None of our guys are up to that yet. And Charmeleon's out of ember. Flareon's only got a couple left.'
Rag was looking at the group, half puzzled, half smiling. 'But that's a LOT of helping hands....'
Rattata was bursting into flames, but, strangely, landed on Flareon's back instead of attacking Skarmory. He ran on the spot, the flamewheel spinning instead like a blazing hamster wheel, as Flareon glowed brighter.
I laughed, impressed. 'He's organized one big, super boosted attack. Wow, my rat is awesome. Go Rattata! Come on everyone, one last shot!'
Rag was looking intently at Rattata. 'Amazing. He's managing to convert his normally damaging attack into some sort of boost for Flareon. It reminds me of-'
'Pikachu and Misty's bike!' Cut in Sammy excitedly. 'You're right, that is one smart rat.'
'Aha! Gotcha!' Jonny had just caught one of the defeated birds, and turned to see what we were looking at. 'Wow. Cool.'
Don backed over to us, not taking his eyes off the charging attack. 'How are they going to make sure they hit?'
'Oddiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!'
A tendril of sweet scent made Skarmory drift in front of Flareon, who opened his mouth with a cry, unleashing a torrent of tiny flames. Skarmory only had time to turn and yell before the wave was upon it.
It was AWESOME.
So yeah they won. We've discovered that whatever it was that was that making them crazy seems to wear off once they recover and wake up, so we healed them a little and let them rest. They all just flew off afterwards, and are now fairly spread out and not causing trouble.
We've kept the sword, it's at the base. We figure it's easier than trying to return it to it's proper dimension.
I had to find Rattata. I looked at the roof he'd been thrown onto. It belonged to the Town Hall.
'Great, of all the places.....Butterfree! With me!'

'Sleep powder!'

The sword and the stones! part 2
We had to leave everything where it was and run over to market square, but Glaceon had started packing stones into my bag. It wasn't as heavy as expected, so I grabbed it and rushed off to catch up with the others.
It was true. All the birds in the square had become Pokémon, and had started flapping around causing chaos, confused. Murkrows, Pidgeys, Taillows, Starlys, Natus, a Skarmory, and a Chatot.
'Great, Oddish is Grass, that's not good against flying......'
'Fighting isn't that great either, right?'
'Take the Murkrows, the dark should cancel out the flying and make your attacks normal. Butterfree, use confusion and avoid flying attacks, Rattata, protect the public while they evacuate the area, Glaceon, all the normal fliers you can get, Jonny, Onix would probably be good, Rag, can you and Charmeleon go for Skarmory?'
'On it!'
He ran off, and Jonny released Onix, before heading for the group of panicky market goers and helping them leave.
Sammy was looking at the flock of birds nervously. One Pokémon with a type disadvantage. Not the best position to be in.
'Poison everything. I'd say that was the best approach.'
'Right. Oddish, Poisonpowder!'
Oddish launched a cloud of purple spores upwards, straight into the faces of five birds. Blinded by the dust, they crashed into a wall, flickering with a purple glow.
As Sammy cheered I went in pursuit of Rattata, dodging an Ice beam and Rag directing all three of his Pokémon at once. Rattata was leaping at a Natu, scaring it away from a little girl. She bent down to pat Rattata and thank him, smiling, but squealed as he pounced at Natu, going in for another Bite attack. I saw a taillow and a starly sweeping in on him from behind, and batted them away with my arm, getting a couple of nasty pecks. There were a few people, being guided out by Jonny, who were looking around in confusion, and seemed to think the birds were still normal birds, and a lot of people were looking at Glaceon, wondering what was taking out so many birds, unable to see him at all.
Then things went downhill. Skarmory escaped Charmeleon to steel wing Onix, Oddish was hit by a speedy Spearow, the Chatot let out a yell that knocked back Pichu and Snover, Hitmonchan took one too many flying type moves, Rattata was flung onto a rooftop, Butterfree, who had benn using powders and confusion suffered a direct hit from three Starlys, Charmeleon was overwhelmed by psychic moves from Natus, and I only just caught Glaceon as five birds slamming into him threw him backwards. We were all separated, and as I backed towards my bag, I saw groups of birds homing in on each of us. The eevees were gathered together in a huddle, biting and snapping at their foes, except one, the first one we encountered, who was cowering in the middle of the group, not attacking. Then three of them looked at Glaceon. Who nodded, and then looked up at me.
'Glay! Glacee! Ceeeeon!'
'Attack? No....Cover?'
'Cee!'
I slowly lowered him to the ground, and then batted frantically at our captors as they went for him. More joined our lot, and I caught a glimpse of Happiny pulling little oranges, satsumas or something, from her pouch and creeping about, handing them out to our Pokémon.
Suddenly, the three eevees that had nodded broke free of group, running, and leapt into the air. Glaceon made three head jerk movements by my bag, and three stones flew from him. They were caught by three sets of teeth mid flight.
A burst of light filled the square.
Three eevees had jumped into the air. A Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon landed.
It was true. All the birds in the square had become Pokémon, and had started flapping around causing chaos, confused. Murkrows, Pidgeys, Taillows, Starlys, Natus, a Skarmory, and a Chatot.

The sword and the stones! Part 1
The five of us all trained together at last, and loads happened!
First, I should explain about my Uni friend. She's called Sammy, and for Christmas I gave her an Oddish. Level 13, knows absorb, sweet scent, acid and poisonpowder.
So we all met up and I introduced Sammy to the rest of the group. She wanted to train Oddish with a proper battle, and Ragnarok wanted to give Pichu a proper battle, so they decided on a 1 v 1.
Oddish wandered forwards, looking round the base, excited for his first battle.
'Let's start with acid!'
With an excited cry, Oddish launched a blob of acid at Pichu.
'Dodge and use thunderwave!'
'Piiiiii!'
'Oooooooddddddddiii...'
This was a bad start for Oddish, as crackle of electricity rippled from it, and it stopped mid step, it's foot returning, very slowly, to the ground.
Rag grinned, and Sammy frowned. Then she looked determined, as Pichu ran forwards.
'Sweet scent!'
'Ooooddi!'
there was a pfffffffff noise, and then a beautiful smell filled the room. I found myself smiling, and leaning forwards to smell it better. Everyone in the room looked a bit sleepy, and Pichu had come to a halt and was sniffing at the air, looking happy.
'Woah.......ok, inside was a....bad idea....Oddish, quick, poisonthing....powder......'
'Butterfree, could you....with the flapping? ....and the smell?'
Butterfree looked a bit dazed, but flapped it's wings, and the air cleared. I shook my head, and looked up to see purple specks settling on Pichu, who seemed to wake up suddenly, glow purple, and looked a bit ill.
'No! Pichu, Sweet Kiss and Thundershock, quickly!'
'Piii? Piiii!'
Pichu focused, and launched a small ghostly angel and a bolt of energy. both hit, and Oddish reeled. Pichu ran forwards, as another flash of purple washed over him.
'Absorb!'
Oddish blinked, lunged with a long leaf from it's head....and smacked itself in the face.
'Noo! Try again, you can do it!'
This time the leaf made contact with Pichu, pushing him away, and as he stumbled, tiny balls of light shot from him and flowed into Oddish.
I couldn't get the weird feeling out of my head. The sweet scent was gone, so what was it? Then I noticed my DS on the table, where Rag had been using it earlier. It's recharge light was flashing purple. And it wasn't plugged in.
Glaceon saw too, and ran between Oddish and Pichu, calling out to get everyone's attention. I became aware that alot of the feeling was coming from my right shoulder, and I was trembling.
'Oh great. This feels like a big one.' I sighed, and as everyone turned to look at me, there was an explosion of purple light from my right side. Next thing I know, my head really hurts, and everyone's looking down at me.
'You alright?'
'Well, not a fan of the blacking out bit.....DS....what's DS say....'
Don handed it to me, and I sat up.
'Wow, big disturbance this time. Well Sammy, you wanted to come along on one of our 'Dimension collision clean ups' this is your chance. You guys will need to fix up Pichu and Oddish though, where my- ah, thanks Glaceon.'
Glaceon pulled my bag over, and I got out a peach, a cherry, and two bottles of water.
'Sorry, no persimmon's, but a quick trip into the ball should fix the confusion.'
As I stood up, my phone went off. 'Yeah?'
'Tempest? I know you're probably busy, so just when you can, but could you pop out to market square? Nothing big really, it's just that ALL THE BIRDS HAVE GONE CRAZY. GET OVER HERE!'
As my friend hung up, I felt my DS vibrate more violently.
'Rag, what was it you were doing on here before the battle?'
'Oh, just activating the 'some items' from the Action Replay. Getting stuff for working on Heartgold. Pichu wanted to see what Raichu's like on there, and-'
I held up a hand to stop him. I was pressing the button to change it into a DSDex, but it wasn't working. It was stuck. I pressed L and R. The Heartgold game glowed purple, and a landslide of small stones streamed out of it. We backed hurriedly out of the base to avoid being buried up to our knees. Glaceon's Brothers and Sisters crowded round us, and we checked everyone was alright. I picked up one of the stones that had slid out of the door, and looked at it. It was slightly pointed at the ends, and was translucent, with a bolt of lightning in it's middle, like a large, jagged marble.
'I was wondering how these would fit into our world, thought we'd need some eventually. Well played.'
'Ha, thanks, although, we may not need QUITE this many.'
'No. We'll pack them up later. Let's deal with these birds-'
I was stopped by a noise from a bulge in the air. Inside the shop, where I'd been standing, the air was bulging and warping. Then a beam of purple light broke free, and there was a strong wind blowing round us. The eevee's huddled together and Glaceon leapt between them and the light, as energy crackled in the space, and voices could be heard.
'IIIIAAAAA! Watch out on the left!'
'Oh god! Here they come!'
'If this is only a patrol, I'd hate to see the army!'
'En Gua-ah!'
'What?'
'My sword! Something swallowed up my sword!'
I ducked as a long, shining blade with a dazzling golden hilt flew from the rip in the air and embedded itself in the wall behind me. Then there was a long sound, as if from a horn, and a mighty roar. The rip seemed to bulge again, and there was high pitched, almost robotic laughter, a weird noise, a thin beam of light shot from the rip and narrowly missed Sammy, and then a shrill whirring sound. The rip bulged once more, and Happiny threw a fire stone at it. It vanished into the light, and Jonny grabbed Happiny, scooping her up into his arms. My shoulder tingled, and the tear closed.
'What. Was. That?!'
We still have no idea.
First, I should explain about my Uni friend. She's called Sammy, and for Christmas I gave her an Oddish. Level 13, knows absorb, sweet scent, acid and poisonpowder.
