[ It's a Stufful! One with a fringe of hair covering his right eye, but otherwise looking like your fairly standard issue Stufful. He fidgets with that fringe a little, seeming unsure out his broadcast. He's not really used to trying to attract attention - typically it's the opposite. But so far everyone here has been kind to him, and he's feeling this unusual desire to ... help? ]

Ah, hi. I'm Junpei ... for those that don't already know me. I'm in the Cheri Berry guild.
I can’t fly, and can only really carry things with my mouth, but my paws are surprisingly good for breaking logs and rocks. I found that out accidentally. It made me realize a lot of us may have specialties in our new forms that aren’t immediately obvious. It might be helpful to document those skills so we can seek out partners for specific jobs. Ah, I can also do this …

[ Junpei used Baby-Doll Eyes! ]

I’m not … really sure how that’s helpful yet.

[The Pokémon that replies also resembles a toy, though she's decidedly on the opposite, "creepy possessed rag-doll" side of the spectrum.]

D'aww...

[Anyway, that face he just made was the kindest she's ever seen. No one has ever looked at her with that much empathy and understanding... Her attack has definitely been decreased.]

Thanks for the tip. I'll definitely keep you in mind next time I need to cute someone into submission.

[ His ears droop. ]

Thanks.

[ BUT her appearance intrigues him enough to be curious. ]

… what kind of Pokemon are you? You kind of look like a Pikachu but …

[ Wrong? ]

[telewarped]

[Her ears flop limply toward one side as she tilts her false head.]

A what?

[moondregs]

A mouse-like Pokemon. I’ve seen a couple around. They’re yellow, have tails shaped like lightning bolts, and … only one pair of eyes.

[ He squints. Is he seeing right? She has two sets? But she doesn’t look like an insect. ]

[telewarped]

Never heard of it. [If he watches closely, he might notice that the lower set of eyes do blink occasionally as she speaks, while the top pair never does.] I think they call me a Mimikyu? Something like that.

[A mimic... chu? That would explain some things...]

What's it to you?

[moondregs]

I was just curious.

[ It’s not really polite to just tell someone you like their creepy appearance. ]

Are you a ghost-type? Or a dark-type?

[telewarped]

Ghost. Can't you tell?

[A long, tentacular appendage emerges from the lower corner of her video image so she can show off her claws—long, savagely hooked things that appear semi-transparent, as if made of shadows.]

Part Fairy-type, too, though, apparently. Whatever that means. You?

[moondregs]

Fairy? I wouldn’t have guessed that.

Normal and fighting. Your typing is much more interesting.

[telewarped]

I dunno. A Fighting plushie sounds like a riot to me. Especially if you really can smash rocks with those doofy lil' arms of yours...

[moondregs]

[ He opens his mouth to defend his arms but closes it just as quickly when he realizes he can’t. They are unarguably doofy. ]

I was surprised too. I’ve been going easy using them in battle because I’m still not used to it … but when I went full force on a big rock in the forest it shattered like glass.

[telewarped]

Not gonna lie, that sounds pretty sick.

Well, if you ever get sick of holding back like a wimp, I guess I wouldn't mind taking you on. Then you can document all the ways I wreck you anyway!

[moondregs]

If you're a ghost, could I even do anything to you?

[telewarped]

Only one way to find out!
