After a very poor showing at UNOVRcon not being able to find a single soul to complain about the game's lack of streaming, Silas Derango only had one thing on his mind and it was to protest this corporation from keeping his honey pot just out of reach! He had taken to writing strongly worded emails, a sign in front of UNOVRcon to stop them from continuing forward with this absolute horror of a design philosophy, and even creating social media content with the hashtag #DownwithHydance. Fueled by absolute spite, he wasn't planning on returning to the game ever until this injustice was righted and he was fairly compensated.
That was until he saw UNOVR's newest content drop being on the back of a Zapdos and heading into an area that wasn't meant to be unlocked so soon. ' Maybe, just this once. ' The aspiring streamer thought and with a hooded cloak, he logged in to find himself vibrating at the thought of all the new content that he could experience and just like that, he was hooked again.
For his very first adventure, Vincent had his pokemon ready with him as he mad his way to the FORGOTTEN NEXUS, a dilapitated city mixed in with the primal vegetation reclaiming what has always been rightfully theirs. Ensuring he knew where the shrine was as a safety measure, with a little more exploring, the man found a secret laboratory also in ruins but looking curiouser and curiouser by the moment.
Without hesitation, the man figured to see if there was anyone nearby looking for a bit of adventure.
[ VINCENT ] : LFG to venture into a broken laboratory. [ VINCENT ] : PM for more info.
Now all he had to do was wait to see if anyone would bite.

" All right, Maverick. Let's get ready for this little fight and let's see what we can do here while a certain cry baby sits in the backs and moans like a LITTLE BABY! " Vincent was quick to give Wednesday a very stern stare as the tiny psychic type waved back in absolute bliss.
< YOU ALREADY SAID A LITTLE BABY, DUMMY HEAD! > Wednesday huffed after her wave, finding herself a tiny little perch that she could sit on as Maverick appeared in the skies of Birchwood Grove. and flew around Vincent a few times as they readied themselves for their next battle. They still had a long ways to go as battlers, but they would soon surpass everyone and be the top (and also gain massive influence and be the biggest blogger of all time!)
They would all eat their words when people were screaming for him, even if he didn't look like Vincent proper. He was still cute as his lean, scrawny self, right?

Vincent hadn't ventured to the Tower of Cats ever and honestly, it felt a little strange for him to be there now as it seemed that the collective had been battling for quite some time. " Not to just dip in and fight the very last couple of Patrat but we're going to call this insane luck! " A huge smile on the man's lips as he unclasped one of his pokeballs and tossed it high into the air as Maverick, the Noibat appeared with a screech to showcase its appearance while doing somersaults in the air out of sheer excitement to finally be battling again after what felt like months of idleness.
+ GUESS WHOSE BACK IT! HAHA, FREAKIN LOSERS, EAT MY AIR, TRASH. + Maverick's wings expanded to its full width as he got a little bit of height and simply dived down once he had been able to spot where that final Patrat was. " You gotta calm down, Mav. " Even Vincent's usual wild energy felt a bit taken aback by the bat's entrance. " Use Supersonic when you're close enough and finish it off. "
Without wasting any time, the bat opened its mouth widely and released a deafening supersonic finishing off the beast in a matter of moments as the challenge seemed to settle into the aftermath of battle.

“ Hey, you really should run the other way! ” Vincent had the golden treasure clasped in his hand and a few yards in front of him, the stranger ( Kallisto ) spun his way with haste while a path seemed to open up directly in front of him without a monkey in sight. He hadn’t expected the very first UNOVR-con to be so close to where he was living and after they made it illegal to stream the game, Silas had to find a new way to attempt to keep his life stable. He didn’t even think he would touch this forsaken game again but when opportunity knocked, you absolutely made sure you slammed the door open with brute force.
Once he found that there were games too, he donned on the massive behemoth avatar he chose months ago and would try to re-open streaming for him or at least being able to screen record to upload afterwards. With a motivated gaze, Vincent ducked under a large boulder where it seemed like monkeys would appear and continued forward, already missing the intense immersive gameplay that UNOVR had in store. He thought back to Maverick, Wednesday, and Serena who had been idle this whole time and he made a mental promise that he’d log in after a bit to see if he still knew anyone around.
“ S^&*. ” A large monkey appeared in his way and all Vincent could think of doing was leaping over him and hoping for the best, perhaps his body plus his sheer force would be too much to be taken down by the monkey. With a quick leap, Vincent jumped with all of his might trying to fully clear the top of the monkey’s head with the treasure still in hand. fRvC3L1|1d101d10 1d10·1d10

Supposedly, when Vincent had gotten some grainy footage of his capture on Sneasel, it seemed like people were both interested and curious at some of the other rarity changes in the game. His streams were still mostly of him talking and going through some of the photos he were able to screen grab poorly through his modified rig but they were pushing for him to stream in-game. Vincent did his best to explain that it wasn't quite what the company wanted to do so he had to continue find workarounds just to get the content he did.
They didn't seem to care as much for the logistics but simply wanted more content.
"Hellish followers..." Vincent mumbled as he loaded up the game and could only hope what he had set up was working as he headed towards Birchwild Grove, eyes set to see what other pokemon they had and if he could some quick lunch money for a video on where to find some random, common pokemon. All he could do was hope.
< Vincent! Wait for me! > His Gothita cried out as she waddled her frame through the fairy groves and thick grass as she quickly climbed onto his pant legs and Vincent picked her up.
" You know, one of these days you might actually have to fight and not leave it up to the others, just some food for thought. " Vincent explaining to the tiny psychic pokemon as he shook his head.
< Lucky for me, today is not the day! > And with a fist thrusted in the air, they both knew she was right.

NOVEMBER 27, 2022 - TASK 01: CLEANING/GROOMING
It had been an infuriating battle with Tuesday, the stupid cat-eared sadist with her sleek serpent who was as putrid and deadly as she was shimmery. Vincent found himself huffing and puffing from her stupid, humiliating battle that left him and Serena absolutely wrecked and stuck in a position where Serena would tucker herself out in battle before she could even do a significant amount of damage on the Dragonair. It seemed like Tuesday truly knew how to play this game and wouldn't stop humiliating Vincent every change she got. Perhaps, Vincent was a bit too brazen with his new team and their success in the raid to notice the large gap between him and her. He'd start closing it right here, right now.
The first thing he did was log off of UNOVR, the shoddy VR had been acting up with his screen recording so it often took him double the time to upload his content that was still barely passing 5,000 views. It wasn't even close enough to start making a good profit. He thought defeating someone like Tuesday might be some good click bait but that went to absolute shit.
So instead, Silas watched a few other YouTubers explaining how they finagled the system to get their machines to work as best as they could and a few tips for beginners.
" Pokemon Refresh? What the hell is this? " He clicked and Vincent learned a whole new world of what he could immediately do to shorten the distance between the rising stars of UNOVR and himself.
Logging in, Vincent immediately let out Serena who still smelled a little like rancid poison. " Come on, let's get you cleaned up. " Serena was more docile than usual, her own embarrassment shook her to the core being defeated in such a humiliating way.
" Hey, Serena? I promise you that will never happen again. " Vincent looked down at his Fennekin as he washed her, taking out the towel and brush to dry her off and to brush out her coat.
< You better be sure. > She said with a snort of flames, her own vindictive and prude nature flared in the moment as she would deliver a killing blow to Orn, even if it was the last thing she ever did.
SERENA (FENNEKIN)'S RARITY INCREASED BY 5 (VERY RARE).

This battle made two things entire evident to Vincent: the gap between Tuesday and Vincent was immense and Tuesday was the type of person to make that clear at every opportunity.
Serena was a spitfire, as ferocious as she was agile but this wasn't something she could simply manifest or will herself to success. Ultimately, this dang dragonair could and would continue to heal itself and Vincent had absolutely nothing he could do about it. The helplessness rattled inside Vincent's bones as he looked over at Tuesday with sheer disgust as his hands shook from both embarrassment and rage. She was doing this on purpose and probably was thrilled to watch him look like an absolute idiot.
"I surrender." The words filled with vitriol, anger and resentment nipping at the consonants as he quickly moved forward and called Serena back, the wily Fennekin had her feet sparking with flames until Vincent called her name using a voice he attempted to fill with authority.
They would beat Tuesday one day, today just wasn't it.
"We're going to remember this and we'll find you again, Tuesday. Mark my words." She was as brilliant as she was diabolical and there was only a piece of that he admired, the rest he wanted to crush this damn kitty girl into the ground with his thumb.
Now, he had a personal vendetta to train for.
VINCENT SURRENDERS.
{Spoiler} SERENA FENNEKIN (90/200 HP) Active Damaged by (DRAGONAIR) for (0 HP) Damaged by (ATTACKING) for (0 HP)

< Comin' your way, Vinny boy. Not sure what the hell it is, over. > After showing him snippets of who he was named after, Maverick was determined to be even more irritating than Tom Cruise was in his movie.
" Please, just focus on the task at hand. " Vincent nearly pleaded, his whole team had quite the character as the Pidove moved with an agility he hadn't expected while letting out some leftovers that almost landed on Vincent's shoulder.
" Get that damn bird, pronto! It nearly shit itself on me! " Those were absolute fighting words as Vincent's was seeing scarlet all over in fury as Maverick caught a gusty tailwind to catch up with the Pidove, getting its fangs onto one of its wings with a powerful bite.

To Vincent, the starting outpost was the most interesting when it came to finding pokemon for him. He still wasn't sure what he wanted to do in terms of his team but after the raid on Noonlight Shrine, Vincent knew he had A LOT of movement and growth to be able to catch up with some of the bigger and stronger trainers within the game.
" C'mon Maverick, let's go ahead and do a little bit. You'll be up first for a little training. " Vincent released his Noibat into the air who let out a tiny screech away from Vincent as he encircled his trainer curiously at some of the changes the outpost was starting to have and as well with a surveillant eye looking for any pokemon nearby who they might be able to train or capture.
< Go it, boss! I think I see something a few yards ahead! > And without skipping a beat, the bat pokemon dove closer for a better view.
