First Person Sample: So, hrm. I've been dragged into another world and given a monster as a "partner"? My my my, this whole enterprise seems a bit dangerous, don't you think?

Ah, perhaps I should introduce myself first. My name is Akihiro Kurata. Professor Akihiro Kurata. I'm quite brilliant, you know. I've done a fair bit of work for the government, actually... well, where I come from, I mean. I suspect the lot of you have no idea what the world I come from is like...

But ha ha, that's in the past, isn't it?

I want to learn more about these Pokémon creatures... the one I was given is a bit like creatures from where I come from. Porygon, I believe I call it? An artificial, digital lifeform... they're much like beings we call Digimon. Quite dangerous, those... they manifested in our world and posed a constant danger to humankind. It was absolutely difficult, but we had to enact extreme measures to protect ourselves. I led the way of course...

But enough about me and my contributions to the human race.

I want to learn about Pokémon as much as I can! I imagine that of course involves capturing as many as possible... But if anyone would be willing to lend their, erm, partners to the cause of science, I'd be quite grateful. I am particularly interested in how dangerous they are... no use in anyone getting hurt, correct?

Hm! I suppose that's all!

Third Person Sample: Kurata made himself literally cough as he finished typing his network post, having to figuratively choke back his anger and frustration the entire time he was writing it. He wanted to do nothing more than rail against the forces that had led to his defeat and exile to this... this saccharine hellhole, but he knew that he couldn't afford to alienate anyone now that he was here.

In all seriousness, he was rather lucky. When he'd been consumed by that dimensional rift, which had been no fault of his own, he'd thought that was the end of him; his essence strewn about the time space continuum like dust. But somehow, it had thrown him into this world that reminded him so much of that wretched Digital World... Similar except for the fact that, here, the digimon counterparts and humans lived in relative harmony...

It was absolutely disgusting. Living alongside monsters... battling them against one another like some kind of family-friendly cockfighting... he couldn't imagine how long it took before this world's stable veneer went teetering into absolute chaos.

"PORYGON."

Ugh. That bizzare little digimon knockoff was demanding attention again. Kurata suppressed a violent sneeze as he turned to the sentient mishmash of pixels. While a digimon at least resembled a real animal despite being an abomination, this artificial construct looked like a cheap CGI effect from an old science fiction movie... its presence was disorienting to Kurata, as if looking at it made him visibly doubt it was real.

"Eugh. What do you want now?" Kurata asked it.

The creature's polygon-shaped head turned at a thirty degree angle, while its eyes and what could generously be called an expression didn't move at all. "PORYGON," it repeated.

Oh, that was right. These wretched little beasts only said their names, didn't they? Ugh. This reminded Kurata of the hamster he'd owned when he was younger... the thing slept all day, and resisted Kurata's attempts to study it. The stupid little beast had died after two weeks.

He supposed he'd ought to avoid that happening this time. This was the only source of power in this world. He'd have to figure out what living special effects ate, apparently.

The sheer ridiculousness was not lost Kurata at all. In fact, it made him want to wretch. And sneeze, but both of those things were normal.

((my apologies on the passwords. I saw them, I was just working off an older application and forgot to replace that particular part. x_x I didn't mean to appear as though I didn't look at what I needed to))
