Or, well, she walks as far as the coastline will allow her to... At some points its as if there's invisible walls blocking her path, stopping her from progressing any further. Areas with particularly high amount of vegetation display slight lag, and at one point she had even clipped right through a tree. "No wonder we're making people pay to come to glitch island." She thinks. ENTERING THE TALL GRASS! When a Wild PKMN appears, reply using the ~~ATTACK~~ button to weaken it! But watch out— it might fight back! If your PKMN faints, you must go to the closest SHRINE to restore your PKMN. When the Wild PKMN's HP reaches 10% or below, up to 2 players may spend 25 BYTES to catch it here. You may also simply ~~retreat~~ to end the encounter. Retreating succeeds automatically. Domino

Maybe she just needs to get used to it or something... <'There, there~'> Blobert says excitedly, causing her to jump in surprise. "Fuck. Is that another glitch?!"

A wild pokémon comes waddling towards them. A Quaxly, of all things. "Oh... Ha. Right, integration of Paldean pokémon is starting here." Of course, Hilda had pre-ordered both Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, and as of late, much of her free time had been spent playing them. With Quaxly being her own choice in starter, it would feel wrong not to catch this one. "Okay, Blobert, it's all on you now." She tells the Ditto that slides down to the ground, soon transforming into a perfect replica of the duckling.

Or well, at least that's what it looks like on the surface, but the reality is that given UNOVR's combat system, TRANSFORM doesn't work as it would in most pokémon games. A normal-type WATER GUN meets one made of actual water, a very normal WING ATTACK meets one that actually raises a gust, etcetera, etcetera. It's just really funny to watch, honestly. Almost to the point that she forgets how damn glitchy this place is. Almost.

Domino tells the TRANSFORMED Ditto, a slight smile upon her lips. She crouches down to get a better look at the battle, watching from a distance as both small pokémon fight each other. Really getting some beginner trainer vibes here, huh? It's nice, honestly. Or well, it is until Blobert's attack completely misses its target despite the fact that she's pretty damn sure the combat system is supposed to be guaranteed hits. What the hell? Combat glitches too? There isn't a single thing in this island that isn't bugged to hell and back, huh?

It's not that she's disappointed, it's that she should have seen this coming. Spawns at Beta Island aren't nearly as strong as some of the Asper ones, sure, but she still should have probably upgraded her Tall Grass HP before coming here. Maybe that's why Blobert missed that one attack? He did less than 1 damage and the algorithm rounded it up to 0? Lame. She'll still tentatively add it to her bug report list, just in case. "It's a long walk from here to the nearest shrine, Blob. I really don't wanna have to come back."

Maybe it really is just the algorithm. Domino takes off her sunglasses, leaving them on top of her head, and it's then that her gaze fixes on the duckling once again. "Hmm... Maybe we'll take you with us, you're pretty cute when unevolved." She had given her Quaxly in Pokémon Violet an Everstone.
