I-I think he's sick...

[When Teddie pops onto the feed, he can't help but look and sound concerned. There's a horrible, wailing screeching noise in the background, but thankfully it's not so loud that Teddie needs to shout. He doesn't leave whatever is making that sound a mystery for very long, the feed pans over to Cho - his beartic - who seems to have her arms outstretched as she holds a very flaily cubchoo.

At least...it's almost a cubchoo. Although it doesn't stay still for more than half a second, it's not hard to see that it has the most horrifying face. Lacking any sort of nose, the usual cubchoo goo appears to be coming out of its...mouth. Cho's giant paws seem to be doing a good job keeping the thing contained, there isn't a scratch on her. Her expression, however, is pretty grim. There's something wrong with this poor baby and she doesn't know what.]

I dunno what to do! But...Cho-chan won't let 'em go until he gets all better.

And he keeps getting angrier.

[In fact the thing was pretty calm at first, which would explain how they were able to sneak up on it. Seriously, Teddie's heart raced when he saw a cubchoo in Goldenrod, only to face utter heartbreak when the creature turned around. If he wasn't so worried about the animal's health, he'd be sobbing in a corner right about now.]

I wanna take him to the doctor, but-

[Before Teddie can finish, the screeching finally reaches levels of unbearable and the creature manages to flail just hard enough to slip out of Cho's grip. Without warning, it goes straight for Teddie, all on camera for everyone to see. The 'gear drops from his hands, the picture nothing but darkness as the camera finds itself facing the ground. All anyone gets is a panicked child's screams.]

G-GAAAHHH! NOOOO! IT'S... IT'S GUMMING ME!

[Gross.]

What... what is that thing?

[He's got great priorities, here.]

Are you okay?!

[Thankfully by now things are a little less...gross. Hooray for friends, etc.]

I thought it was a baby bear. L-Like the same kind I had in the bearginning.

[AND HE WAS SO HAPPY, TOO.]

I'm fine, but I'm worried that baby is real sick. And now he's lost in the great big world again.

[Between seeing that weird... bear thing and it attacking Tedie, Banjou's not sure what to think.]

I've never seen anything like it before. I wonder if it's a new type of Pokemon?

Maybe you'll run into that one again.

[Just the thought of meeting another one causes Teddie to jump. Talk about true terror, maybe that's why they showed up so close to Halloween...]

Nooooo thanks, I'll pass. One is bad enough! I just don't understand it, they're so gosh darn cute when they're...not that.

It's gotta be sick, nothing else makes sense!

[Look, it was creepy, but Banjou has a Haunter.]

What do they look like normally?

Maybe there's some sort of... Pokeflu going around.

[Though that doesn't explain everything.]

It...it looks like a bear?

[This is a lot harder to explain now that he doesn't have his own cubchoo.]

And I just hope it'll be okay, pokeflewing or not... I mean, just 'cause it's the scariest thing in the world, doesn't mean it shouldn't be safe...

Something might wanna eat it...and then catch...that.

I... I figured as much. I meant what Pokemon. I mean, if you know.

[There's like 500-some more than what Banjou is used to from the anime, okay.]

Hopefully it gets better. It was pretty creepy looking, as a... sick Pokemon.

T-The bear kind?

[Does this look like the kid who remembers names?!]

It wouldn't even bother me so much if it didn't make Cho-chan so sad. I know pokeys are pretty good at taking care of themselves. But...that's the same kinda bear she got big from, I really think she wanted to help the little guy...

[Hey, it was worth a try. As it is, he looks surprised, but he's not going to press.]

I don't know what it could be, but I hope that poor little guy is able to get better.

It's looking like there are a bunch of hybrids running around lately, too. I don't know what it could mean.

Maybe we need to stay away from them until we know more.

...Hy-brid?

[Oh dear.]

Well what the heck does high bread gotta do with anything? Of course I'm gonna avoid bread if it's up in the air like that, I wouldn't be able to reach it all the way up there!

What?

[Did he misspeak? Oh no.]

No, no. I mean it's like two Pokemon were combined together.

You know, like a liger or something.

A what now?

[What is that, some kind of lying tiger? At least it's good to know there isn't an outbreak of flying bread...]

I guess that does kinda makes sense, though... I know that bear body anywhere, but if that face bearlonged to another poke...

A liger. It's when a lion and a tiger... well, you know.

[Well, it's not like he really knows much about ligers.]

I don't have a clue what the face might belong to. It makes it look pretty creepy.

I'm not even sure I'd wanna see where that face came from. That's gotta be one crazy looking critter...

[Seriously, the slime.]

It is pretty creepy looking.
