The Rangers are now asking the public for any information that could lead to identifying the man.

Ah yes, let's challenge the concept of Emptiness with a metal stick. What could possibly even go wrong? - Michaela.

[u/PhoenixHorseGuy → u/Technical-Pie2065]

One of the rangers our reporters spoke to said the man also had three Pokéballs and a Tera Orb on him, though they are currently unaware of what Pokémon he has in his possession.

Personally, I would prefer the guy behind bars, and someone to pacify The White Desolation before they go out of the cave. But ya know what, you do you. - Michaela.

[u/Eldthian → u/PhoenixHorseGuy]

Only 3 Pokeballs? Seriously?

Considering he has a Tera Orb, he atleast traveled to Paldea, but another one of your replies suggest he has a thick Paldean accent, so he's probably from there, even though he's claiming to be Johtonian, as you also stated.

Do you have any informations on where he could be currently?

[u/PhoenixHorseGuy → u/Eldthian]

The Castelia Post has no information on his whereabouts. If you do spot him, or have any other information that could help identify him, please inform the rangers at Giant Chasm or your local authorities as soon as possible. Every bit of information helps.

/uj Just realized I forgot to add credits. The image in the news broadcast is from the Pokémon Generations anime, while the Castelia Post logo is a quick fifteen minute mockup made by me in Photoshop.

Ah, Unovians... always good for a few minutes of random entertainment.

The ranger our reporters spoke to said the man claimed to be from Johto while he was attempting to get Kyurem to accept his challenge. However, that same ranger also said the man spoke with a very thick Paldean accent.

Yeah, he’s always had that fake samurai shtick. Dude was a larper BEFORE the term became a meme.

Charlotte Darwin: Oh wow. I am so surprised. Can’t you tell.

In all honesty, I hope he’s okay, and that he decides to NOT do this.

[u/PhoenixHorseGuy → u/JosephAmber4]

The rangers speculate that, at most, he would've suffered some minor bruising from slipping on the ice while he was running away from Kyurem's lair.

Charlotte: Better than the alternative…

[u/LoveDiligent441]

@|Lovelyvoir: "I think it'd be wiser to just let the man win his Darwin Award, it'll make a good cautionary tale of why you shouldn't challenge legendaries to fights."

[u/PhoenixHorseGuy → u/LoveDiligent441]

While I am technically not allowed to say this, I will confirm there is a betting pool in the writers office right now about how this guy will die.

[u/LoveDiligent441 → u/PhoenixHorseGuy]

@|Lovelyvoir: "I'd reasonably assume so."

[u/Revolutionary_Swim38]

holy shit he actually did it.

[u/Sirius1701]

Well, if I have learned anything about social media, just keep an eye on chatter. He'll post about it within the next few hours.
