Sonic and the Pokemon Colosseum

Mayor: "Welcome to Phenac City! I'm the Mayor, Es Cade!"

Sonic: "And I'm Sonic, her Es Cort!"

Silver: "And I'm Silver, the Es Peon!"

Skrub: "And I'm Skrub, the Cipher Peon!"

Ein: "And I'm Ein, the Cipher Admin!"





Anca: "I saw a pokemon with a black aura. It was like a fighting machine."

Sonic: "Whoa that's incredibly badass."

Anca: "Because I saw that pokemon, I was kidnapped. Apparently, I'm the only one who has the power to see the black aura. These pokemon are not afraid to attack humans."

Sonic: "Aw man, if I can't see the black aura, then that's significantly less bad ass. But fighting machine is cool, at least."



Mayor: "We mustn't allow thugs to do as they wish! Especially not ones that endanger a pretty young lady like you!"

Anca: "uh"



Mayor: "I'll order an investigation. In the meantime you should check out the Phenac Colosseum. It's really nice."

Sonic: "The Phenac Colosseum? Colosseum means fighting! I love fighting!"

Mayor: "Um, hold on, don't go upstairs, that's not where the Colosseum is, um"



Sonic: "You again...? How did you get here... before I, the fastest hedgehog around, did!?"



Lady in Suit: "Oh hi, aren't you a cute guy? It must be nice to travel around with a cute girlfriend!"

Anca: "Yeah, it must be."

Sonic: "Oh you must be a different woman. How come you all look the same?"



Anca: "Sonic, help me."

Sonic was confused. What was wrong with Anca?



Anca: "I'm stuck. Please come back."

Sonic was more than happy to be rid of Anca and left her behind.



Sonic found a rare pokemon item cube.



Item cubes are special... they can contain more than one item!!



Sonic could not fathom how this Athlete and his Castform could be running faster than him. What was going on here?

"Come back! Slow down! Please! Give me directions to the Colosseum!" cried Sonic.

But the Athlete did not slow down. Sonic was hopelessly lost in this huge city.





TV reporter: "A Team Snagem Member was found hiding in Eclo Canyon. He told us that the explosion apparently destroyed the SNAG MACHINE used for stealing pokemon. However, only the large machine was destroyed, and a smaller portable one was taken by the member who blew up the hideout."

Sonic nodded sagely. Yes, he did that. He did a real cool thing, he blew up the clothing store he worked at, and stole the snag machine sleeve, but those days seemed long gone. Sonic didn't know where to go. He didn't know who to fight. He didn't know how to go fast.



Finally, after what seemed like days of running around, Sonic finally found the Phenac Colosseum.



Sonic expected the arena of violence to be more badass. Maybe if those were fountains of blood instead of water? Sonic had always considered a career in interior design if he hadn't gone into the fashion industry. But alas, the days of honest work were over. Sonic was going to become a gladiator! Sonic was getting pumped! Finally, some fighting! Sonic could feel his energy returning to him! He was finally gonna be cool again!



Front Desk Person: "Welcome! This is where we register trainers for challenges. However the current challenge has already started. Please come back later."

Sonic was disappointed. Fight later? There was nothing Sonic could do. And so Sonic waited. And waited. A minute went by. The water disturbed Sonic. Even though he lived in a desert, the water reminded him of the darker days of his youth. Sonic couldn't swim, but sometimes he could run on water if he went fast enough... but could he still go fast?

Front Desk Person: "*Ahem* maybe you should wait outside."

Sonic didn't even protest. His rebellious attitude had left him. He obeyed and walked outside.



Team Snagem Member: "There you are, Sonic! We finally caught up to you, you filthy double crossing traitor!"

Anca: "Hm? Sonic used to be a member of Team Snagem?"

Sonic: "What the- how long have you been there?"

Anca: "The whole time. You looked like you were brooding so I didn't want to disturb you."





Team Snagem Member: "He's no ordinary member of Team Snagem... for one thing, he's not a clone! This means that he has rights... including the rights to steal pokemon!"

Anca: "That's not a right at all. That's illegal. No one is allowed to do that. No one CAN do that."

Snagem Member: "Well, thanks to the power of technology, Sonic can. That fancy sleeve he's wearing allows him to turn pokeballs into Snag Balls, which allow him to catch pokemon even if they aren't wild! And he's really good at it, he snags pokemon without fail!"



Wakin: "Sonic, I challenge you to a duel!"

Sonic: "I'll do anything for a fight! YEAH!"

SpoilerFun fact: If you lose on Willy, you'll get teleported right back into the Outskirt Stand and have to fight him again with the same cutscene. If you lose to Folly, you'll still be at the entrance to Phenac and have to fight Folly again, but Folly will only say one line about how you lost before and go straight to the battle. If you lose to Wakin... Anca will shout for help and the Team Snagem members will run away. Also if you win your pokemon get healed, unfortunately, since I couldn't remember if you take poison damage out of combat like in RSE and earlier. That's an experiment I'll have to do later, then.

Wakin: "Curse you, Sonic!





Anca: "So, Sonic, it seems like you're good at stealing pokemon..."

Sonic nodded. "Yeah, I'm the best at stealing pokemon."



Anca: "Let's buy some pokeballs then."



Anca: "Sonic it happened again."





Anca: "I can't go up the stairs."

Guy: "No one sells pokeballs around these parts, that's common knowledge. There is no use for them as there are no wild pokemon in the Orre region! However the guy that runs the Outskirt Stand used to sell them, but you have to keep that a secret."

Sonic: "I could have sworn I saw a wild Skarmory."

Guy: "Pah! An exception to the rule."



Shadow and Silver don't get to sit in the sidecar anymore.



Willie: "Oh hey it's you! Some scary clone guys came by earlier looking for you...

Sonic: "Oh yes, they found me... and then I beat them!"

Willie: "Wow! You're just so cool Sonic!"

Sonic didn't say so, but he secretly enjoyed the praise.



TV Reporter: "It seems that the smaller Snag Machine that was stolen is compact enough to be carried by one person! It is an alarming device that can change regular Pokeballs into Snag Balls that can steal pokemon from other trainers! It is hoped that the device will not be used for nefarious purposes again!"



Outskirt Stand Owner: "Huh? What was that? Pokeballs? There's no call for those around these parts but I have some somewhere around here. Yes, here are some. They are a little dusty, but otherwise in perfect condition. Here's 5 for free, if you want more, I'll be putting them out with the rest of my merchandise!"



Then Sonic spent all of his money on pokeballs! That would be plenty of supplies to last for quite some time.



While we're looking at Sonic's PDA, what should we set his ringtone to?
