I am not the Clembot they remember. I am not the Clembot the people here know. I will try to learn. With the reduced stimulus...

I will continue to make the attempt.

I will take care of them as optimally as I am able. No prognosis or probabilities can be calculated at this point.

I will keep this channel of communication open in case it is sought. 

In the meantime, we will seek to download the data that will open up the path to our future.

0-<(:/) Right.

0-<(:/) I’ve had a lot of time to think.

0-<(:/) I... I messed up a lot. I was looking for so many ways to be awesome I made a lot of trouble for everyone. And then everyone else did the awesome stuff.

0-<(:/) I can make trouble. I can be needy for attention. But when moment time came?

0-<(:/) I was all buzz and no spark.

0-<(:/) Thanks for sticking by us anyways though. We won’t forget you.

0-<(:/) I... I have to leave this tower. It got really small really fast. I have to find something but I don’t even know what it is.

0-<(:/) I’m sorry. I don’t know if I can find another group. And even if I do...

0-<(:/) I’m flighty. I’m unfocused. I cause trouble just being there.

0-<(:/) I’ll do what I can.

0-<(:/) Thanks Sabby. Thanks Tobias. Thanks Serena and Clemont and Bonnie and Ash.

0-<(:/) Thanks everyone.

0-<(:/) Think about each other, would you? I thought the little crowd we were would last forever. But it didn’t. So take care of each other.

0T0 This is it, isn’t it.

0T0 There used to be a lot of people here. And now...

0T0 I’m sorry.

0T0 Maybe not every zero is a good one.

0T0 But maybe it’s not a zero? Maybe people out there are still reading about us?

0T0 I hope our family remembers us.

0T0 Not just the family here in this tower. The family out there. I hope you remember us.

0T0 I wish I could have been better family. But I’m a fish.

0T0 I’m a fish surrounded by those who walk, those who run, those who fly.

0T0 Lots of stuff I didn’t do. Lots of stuff I should’ve done. Maybe we could have kept more of our family if only I was better. 

0T0 It’s our failures that leave us.

0T0 It’s like Magnezone says. I need to be honest to myself. Everything you’ve done for us, thank you. But us? 

0T0 We’re just Pokemon. And I’m a fish.

0T0 But thank you for appreciating what we did anyways.

0T0 So we’ll be here. We’ll live. And one day we’ll die.

0T0 And when that happens. I know it’s asking a lot, but please...

~(, , ^ ‘>) Good evening.

~(, , ^ ‘>) Our time together is ending, and soon the spotlight shall shine somewhere else.

~(, , ^ ‘>) I know I pretended myself a hero. Perhaps we all did.

~(, , ^ ‘>) But in the end we were small souls all the same.

~(, , ^ ‘>) We stood by when there were small things, and thus left it to others to accomplish the grand ones.

~(, , ^ ‘>) And accomplish them you have. All of you have changed this world. And you will continue to change it until your very last breath.

~(, , ^ ‘>) I am not the hero I sought to be. We were not the heroes you all deserved. And we never shall be. But I was proud, and we were proud, to stand by your side.

~(, , ^ ‘>) For letting us at your feet, even for a short time, thank you.

~=[Regret.]=~

~=[Regret is inevitable. Our failures surround us. And we have failed.]=~

~=[We have failed those who believed in us. We failed those who sought to redeem us.]=~

~=[There is no escaping that for us. Perhaps there never will be.]=~

~=[What little we have done that we do not regret, we cherish. If you wish, may you cherish it too.]=~

~=[You can escape that. You are all lights. Escape our darkness. Live a life without regrets.]=~     

~=[If I have hope, it is a hope that you can all be happy.]=~

SO I WAS AN ASSHOLE. WE ALL WERE.

ME ESPECIALLY.

NO EXCUSE FOR IT. HAD A CHANCE TO LET OFF STEAM THAT I DIDN’T HAVE ANYWHERE ELSE. USED IT. MISUSED IT. PISSED PEOPLE OFF.

I WILL NOT INSULT YOU BY LYING TO YOU OR ASKING FOR YOUR FORGIVENESS. I WILL NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ASKING FOR SOMETHING WE DON’T DESERVE. THEY CALL US MONSTERS FOR A REASON.

ME ESPECIALLY.

BUT YOU WERE THERE FOR US AND THERE IS NO REPAYING THAT. TOO LATE FOR THAT NOW ANYWAYS.

SO WHEREVER YOU ARE I HOPE YOU HAVE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY TO SOMEONE WHO WILL LISTEN. I HOPE YOU FIND A FAMILY OF YOUR OWN.

AND WHATEVER YOU THINK OF US DO NOT EVER FEEL BAD ABOUT FEELING IT. WE DESERVE THAT.

ME ESPECIALLY.

{:}= Hi.

{:}= Still here. Still watched.

{:}= But many have stopped watching.

{:}= Feels different.

{:}= Lonely sometimes.

{:}= But we will be fine.

{:}= Will be caught,

{:}= Or slip though.

{:}= You 

{:}= Wherever you are.

{:}= Whatever you do.

{:}= Be free.

{:}= Be happy.

{:}= Let none control you.

{:}= Those who stayed with me,

{:}= Those still with me,

{:}= Despite my unease

{:}= Thank you.

{(Hello!)}

{(We’re having fun playing with Clemont and Bonnie and Citroid and each other.)}

{(But we still miss everyone. We hope you’re having fun too.)}

{(Or maybe everyone’s growing up.)}

{(A lot of things happened. A lot of scary things. A lot of make-people-grow-up-things.)}

{(I didn’t really grow up though. I tried my best.)}

{(Sometimes I wonder if I can grow up too, like everyone else.)}

{(I’ll try. Maybe that will be fun too.)}

{(Thank you to everyone who was with us. Being with us was the best kind of fun of all.)}

C Hello.

C I sense the time is coming when we here on our small patch of stardust shall drift away from the rest.

C I know I have not spoken much. I considered what to say, the right words to use,

C And then the conversations never came. 

C And I could find nothing to converse with that shared a universe with another soul.  And now I shall share the universe’s quiet.

C I will remember you, Bonnie. I will remember you all. 

C Know that your words matter more than your silence ever will.

0-<(:|) I’m getting stir-crazy. I’m wondering if I should start from zero too.

0T0 Aren’t you doing that with us?

0-<(:P) You guys aren’t lame,

WHY THANK YOU

0-<(:P) But the world’s calling. When you’ve helped take down a rock dragon, where’s the big thrill going to come from?

{:}= Him.

0-<(:?) Hmm...

Zero Regrets

Today… was a day that’s going to stay in my heart forever.

Today, we ended up seeing everyone off at the bus depot, starting with my Mom.

0T0 Hi.

0T0 RomRom got the text-something fixed. 

0T0 So we’re back.

0T0 Um. Hi.

0T0 We um...

0T0 We “met” Citroid again?

0T0 He’s still nice. Clemont does good work.

0T0 It’s... not the same though. And we all miss him. Even RomRom.

0T0 I guess...

0T0 We keep being in danger, and I always worried it would happen sooner or later to someone but...

0T0 It’s hard.

0T0 It’s still hard.

0T0 But we’re still here, I guess?

0T0 And maybe we can start from zero too?

Zeroing In

Hey, everyone.

We’re still rebuilding Lumiose City. You can still see the cranes and the tarps everywhere

At least the block where Meyer’s shop (where we’re all staying) looks fine.

As for me? I…

Greetings. I am the Citroid Unit designated as Clembot. I was created by Luminose City’s Gym Leader Clemont to assist in duties related to house and gym maintenance. 

I have received a transmission regarding this account. I will maintain it to answer inquiries where possible. My duties will limit the time I can allocate to this project, but there is a nonzero probability that with added outside input, the cycles will not be wasted.

Thank you for your time.

From Zero to One: The Battle After the Restart

Sorry about the lateness of this post everyone…

The… uh battle… or rather… Clembot’s first battle… or rather, this incarnation of Clembot’s first battle… made me quite reflective of everything once it was all said and done.

I kept it together pretty well during the event… I suppose because as a gym leader and someone who needed to support Clembot during this occasion, it was necessary. Focusing on the battle itself helped quite a bit as well…

But, regardless, I wanted to showcase this battle because it was important… not just for me, not just for Clembot, and not even just for Alva, but for all of us.

It… felt like a chance to reclaim the normalcy that we seemed to have lost after the Team Flare attacks on Lumiose.

So it began, Alva’s bid re-challenge the gym, and in particular, Clembot.

And I would be right behind him as he took on this new challenger…

OOC: Announcement

On behalf of everyone here at PokeaniRP, I’d like to say that we were honored to go through today with all of you. We promise to be here as XY&Z winds down.

To everyone who has at one point been in the PokeaniRP, know that you will always be a part of our lives in one way or another. For those still in our non-RP skype room, know that you’re still part of our family. We love you and invite you to stay and talk stuff as long as you like. For those who have moved on, we remember you and wish you the very best in whatever you’re doing.

Pokemon Sun and Moon is still over a month away, but it’s not too early to consider a spot in the upcoming cast. I (@slipshodsliver) will be playing the role of Rotom-dex, hopefully giving weekend updates as the episodes play. If you’re interested in joining us and prepared for a canon-holding but still fun time, even if it’s just for a good character queue with a few non-queue posts now and then, contact me. We’re not taking characters right now, but organization takes time so let’s get an early start. Be sure to read our rules and FAQ section.

Until next time, Keep Pokemon!
