Part Five: Utopiabusters
PLOT: It's Mythbusters, but Utopia. I'm not very sure what you would expect.
"Alright, that should... okay! Mister Jagin, I just looked and everybody loves it!"
"AH, why would they not? This is top-class entertainment my friend!"
As reserved as Jagin, a Floatzel architect, was he couldn't help himself from trying to make himself known by other means. And the latest reason he was so full of himself was his current three part TopiaView series: Utopiabusters. It was something he and Dee'mang had originally threw together on a whim, but the reactions the pair received had motivated the duo to make more episodes. Of course, as popular as the season was not everybody quite knew about it.
One of those Pokémon was Ferghus, who was in no way caught in the popularity surge and was more than confused to see the two others examining the show. "You're into that? I guess it makes sense regarding you aren't just into it, you're IN it." The Machoke sighed as the one-eyed Pikipek turned around at the statement.
"Ooh, hiya! I dunno why you don't like it, but you should at least try it!" He had said eagerly, fluttering behind the Fighting type and attempting to push him over with little success. It did prompt Ferghus to move though, which he did with a sigh. "Okay, okay. I'll watch it, but there's no guarantee I'm gonna like it."
Jagin smirked at the enthusiasm and once the other two had made it over, he selected the first video in the playlist to get things going.
"Welcome to the first edition of Utopiabusters! A show where we go around Utopia and try to bust myths all around the place! Why do I say we? Because I, Jagin, aren't alone! I have my assistant here, being Dee'mang the Pikipek!"
"Yep, that's me!"
"Great! Now without further ado, let's get going with the very myth that sparked the idea of this show."
'DOES ANYTHING ACTUALLY SCARE YANDIL?'
The screen showed the pair doing things that slowly increased in intensity in an attempt to scare the Smeargle, but to no avail. But in one particular scene with Jagin, Yandil had been seen being approached by a small Stufful while he was walking. The small bear Pokémon had actually shocked the Smeargle into letting out a yelp before murmuring something about 'dumb Bewear' before Jagin pulled the camera back to him and gave it a confident grin.
'CONFIRMED'
'HAS POKO EVEN GOT A BACKBONE?'
This scene was just a compilation of moments that showed the Skarmory just being a total pushover in all kinds of ways. Letting folk go ahead of him, constantly putting others over himself, and so on. It somehow lasted five minutes before moving on to the next scene, and I don't even know how that dragged out the way it did.
'BUSTED'
"Okay, to keep this short and simple this'll be the last myth we cover today!" The on-screen Jagin had explained while walking across the screen with Dee'mang following closely behind him as the last piece of text came onto the screen.
'IS IT TRUE THAT FERGHUS HAS A THING FOR HIS TOOLS?'
The footage wasn't even complicated. It just showed Dee'mang recording the Machoke tenderly assessing and cleaning his work tools while talking to them as if they were actual Pokémon. The display had caused the Pikipek to laugh softly and cause the Machoke to glance over to him not in anger, but confusion. "Why... why are you laughing? Actually, I'm more concerned on why you're filming me."
Dee'mang had simply flew off as the footage cut out with Ferghus still asking questions.
'CONFIRMED'
And that was where the episode abruptly ended. Jagin had glanced to Ferghus, who had a look of understanding on his face as he turned to the duo. "That makes sense, you know. A lotta folks gotta know that by now, so I don't see a point in being angry about it."
"Yeahh... I'm surprised my head isn't on a spike for doing this yet." The Floatzel replied sheepishly as Dee'mang seemed to be awaiting a response from Ferghus about if he liked it. The Machoke acknowledged it and gave out a small laugh.
"You were right kid, it was worth it to try. 'Ey Jagin, boot up the next episode. I wanna see what else you got!" The Machoke had said while Jagin nodded his head and pulled up the next video by request and started to play it. And I'll just say the Utopiabusters crew got one Pokémon larger that day thanks to what happened.
- FINISH
