That looked like a giant C0D13 flying around. That definitely wasn’t supposed to happen. As soon as she reached the coastline, she started to wander around for a bit to gather a little bit more information on what exactly was going on. This was turning out to already be a dev escalation. Felicia didn’t think it would take too long for her to find something, but even this was way faster than she particularly wanted it to happen. But there was nothing else to do than start her report. Olga sat down on the beach and pulled up the UI. Just in case Felicia wanted to bypass the typical C0D13 reporting system and went straight to emailing the developers.

It let out a little yip to get her attention but she just shot it a glare and held up a finger in the classic ‘wait your turn.’ Unsure what to do, the Popplio also sat down on the sand and waited till she was done. It took a while since this was a massive report, but Felicia was finally done with her initial write-up of what was happening on Beta Island. Such a mess. This is what happens when AIs are expected to handle all bug reports. Although she wasn’t that upset about this, after all, C0D13 going rogue just proves that she still was needed for her job. She was definitely going to spam the Slack channel with I Robot gifs for a while. Just to drive the point home. With that part of her job done, time to get back to testing out other features. She stood back up and dusted off her skirt. Ugh sand really did get everywhere. But it was time to get into character. She took a deep breath then flexed her impressive muscles and crossed her arms. “What you want.” Olga said. She made sure to say it, not ask it. The Popplio snapped back to reality and looked around for a moment before remembering that it was there to fight. It jumped back to attention and barked at her angrily. “Hmm. Treecko. Go.” Olga tossed her pokeball out and Treecko appeared. “Use Leafage.” Treecko stumbled to catch up with what was going on. But once he saw the Popplio in front of him, he nodded and fired a barrage of leaves at the seal.

Really it was just working smart. She needed to see if the devs replied to her email about C0D13 yet. It really was no surprise when there was nothing from them. Her inbox was essentially crickets. Felicia let out a grunt of annoyance and turned her attention back on the game around her. It looked like Treecko was doing a decent job of fighting. Or at least as decent as it could at such a low level. Olga wasn’t particularly attached to her pokemon, after all, they weren’t real. But it was nice to see the thing holding her own. A flash out of the corner of her eye distracted Olga from the fight. She squinted down the beach for a moment before raising her eyebrows. “Is that a small version of C0D13? Oh that’s definitely not supposed to happen.” She watched in mild awe as the swarm of C0D13’s started to delete the island around her. She wasn’t really planning on intervening until one set it’s sights on the Popplio she was fighting. A single pixel was removed from the pokemon before Olga stormed over and slapped the C0D13 out of the air. “Leave. Or Olga smash between thighs.” Apparently the threat was pretty good as the C0D13 immediately took off to delete a different part of the beach. Okay, she needed to update her email to the devs. And also finish this fight faster than she was originally planning. “Treecko, Pound.” She instructed while pulling up her emails once again.

To her horror, a little C0D13 appeared near here and started to yell <If you would like to report…SEARCHING…SEARCHING…> Olga sneered. “Go away. Or get…” <SEARCHING…> “...get crushed…” <If you would like to report…> “...crushed between thi…” <SEARCHING…> “Oh shut up! This is getting ridiculous.” Olga swatted at the C0D13, but it floated above and out of her formidable reach. It was lucky that she was getting paid to play the game or else she would have just logged out to avoid this whole situation. Apparently the little C0D13 was stuck between running basic C0D13 functions and performing whatever insane thing glitched out C0D13 was trying to get it to do. <If you would like to report…SEARCHING…SEARCHING…> 1d100

It wasn’t doing a ton of damage, but the little lizard was still getting hit. Since Olga had her language settings turned off she couldn’t yell to get her trainer’s attention, so she resorted to running over and hiding behind Olga’s massive bulk to catch a moment. “Never mind! I don’t need to file a report!” <If you would like to report…SEARCHING…SEARCHING…> “Go away! What?” Olga looked down when she felt something grab onto her leg. It took her a moment to realize that she was still trying to catch a pokemon during all of this. “Oh. Treecko use…” <If you would like to report…SEARCHING…SEARCHING…> “Shut up! Treecko Leafage.” Finally with some actual direction, Treecko turned her attention back to the Popplio to deliver the attack.

At least Treecko was doing actual damage. Olga took a moment to glance away from her foe to make sure Treecko was still standing. And standing she was. Popplio, though, was looking a little worse for wear. <If you would like to report…SEARCHING…SEARCHING…> Olga tried to grab onto the thing when it froze and took off further down the beach. Apparently it had bigger fish to fry. And judging by the battle the players were having, those were the bigger fish. At least she didn’t have to deal with it yelling anymore. Once she go away from this clearly glitched out area she would have to send that off as a bug report as well. The vindictive part of her was pleased at the idea. She knew there was some poor dev somewhere that would have to sort through those reports later on and she couldn’t help but feel like that’s what they deserved for thinking C0D13 could take the place of actual human reporting. For now, though, she had a battle to finish. Then she could make her way out of the area, finish her reports, and then start exploring other quests to see what she could do to break those. “Treecko. Quick Attack.” Like the loyal little programmed pet she was, Treecko took off towards the Popplio.

It was time to get off this island and get back to her actual job. Or well, at least the other part of her job. In the distance another swarm of what looked like even smaller versions of C0D13 were starting to spread and Olga didn’t really want to be around for it. “Treecko. Return” she held out Treecko’s pokeball and the lizard zapped back into it. Now to catch the Popplio. “Olga catch now” she grunted as she took out the spare ball she acquired at character creation. She really needed to go stop by “Mom’s” and pick up that golden ball next. Olga tossed the ball at Popplio and let the ball do its thing while she watched in morbid curiosity at the beach getting deleted around her.
