Welcome back to CNBC POKEMON NEWS with your host Miyuzuko Ortega!!!!
*Loud clapping from live audience*
"Thank you folks for tuning into another jam packed news day. We've been hearing a lot on the new lately about increased rampages of Lairon and Nidoran herds recently competing for territory ever since the escape around 20 years ago of Agatha's prized breeding pair of Nidoking and Nidoqueen after her sudden death from.. yep... poison toxicity.”
“Apparently living and fighting on the elite four stage for so many years with Toxic gas can and will result in a slow death by poison accumulation into your body.”
“Hence why we strongly recommend if you have poison types to buy ORGANOS gas masks for $1999 the first 100 to buy today will get a 20% discount! May I also remind our viewers that ORGANOS has a lifetime warranty on these beauties."
*cough cough*
"My producers are telling me to get onto the good stuff. So in other news the champions tournament is about to begin again, We still have no clue as to who will be in the lineup for the elite four since Lance's sudden retirement last year due to personal reasons."
"There is a large blue moon expected in two weeks so for those fanatics that have been wanting to get their hands on a Clefairy in Mt. Moon now's your chance"
"The legendary professor Birch JR has successfully made his first prototype Master ball and successfully caught a level 60 Wild Tyranitar without having to lift a finger.”
“Further updates about the results of this capture will be released and I for one am excited to hear what the dinosaur's temperament will be like after having been caught without a fair fight”.
"Enrollments into the yearly International Pokémon beauty contest will be closing at the end of this month and the contest has been restructured so you won't just see Milotic winning most beautiful year after year.”
“I wonder how they will spice things up!"
"I've saved the best until last for our last segment of the day, ‘Show and tell’.”
===================
‘Show and tell’
“So today I have a very special surprise guest on the ‘show’ to announce and ‘tell’ us possibly one of the biggest news stories of our generation!”
“But I’ll let you hear it from him. I'd like to introduce the viewers to the one and only Jonathan Ketchum, an award winning trainer and historian.”
This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.
*loud clapping from the excited audience*
“As you all know since the disappearance of his father Ash Ketchum back in 2010 he's made it his goal to continue his fathers work and the famous catch phrase "Gotta catch-em all" won't die on his watch!"
*A young black haired man in jeans and a denim jacket walks onto the stage with a smile on his face walks over to the host and shakes his hand, an elderly looking Pikachu sits upon his shoulder*
"So Jonathan, what news do you have for us today?"
> "Hello everybody, Mr. Ortega, thank you for having me on the show today. As you know my father Ash was travelling in the arctic regions of the world in search of the legendary Pokémon Articuno to finish his Pokédex of the initial 150 Pokémon, it was always his life's goal to complete each and every Pokédex however the Articuno always eluded his search."
>
> "Now I'm certainly not a 3 time champion like my father, having said that I've made it my mission to complete his goal of catching an Articuno. I realise this is unrealistic on my own which is why I'd like to announce that I'm funding adventurers to come with me to the Antarctic to help me accomplish my goal. Joining me on this mission is renowned researcher Kelly Oak, Grand daughter of the great Professor Oak and daughter of my fathers rival Gary Oak."
"Thank you Jonathan, what he fails to mention and what makes this expedition so newsworthy is that this will be the first crew since the disappearance and assumed death of Ash into unexplored black areas.
Yes that's right folks the Pokémon federation has finally lifted the ban to travel to black areas where Pokémon are rumoured to be far more savage and violent then our usual mapped regions. Now viewers I know you are thinking to yourself, why risk my life trying to catch a legendary Pokémon in a freezing hostile environment?
I don't need fame or money, what can a rich boy offer me?"
*Pikachu has sparks coming from between his red cheeks whilst Jonathan chuckles at the implied joke at his expense*
Jonathan: "So to sweeten the deal I will A) Pay handsomely for anybody who comes along B) You will get that fame and recognition worldwide as this will be a recorded reality series but most of all this is the big one C) POWER!"
*Jonathan pauses for dramatic effect as the Pikachu has a goofy smile on its face as it perches atop his shoulder*
> "How, you ask?"
>
> "Well it's simple really. If you compare a Charizard raised from a Charmander in a starter town versus a wild caught BLACK zone Charmander that evolves into a Charizard......yeah I don't think I need to elaborate further."
>
> "Just look at our recently retired elite 4 Lances Pokémon. They are all superpowered for their species and will mop the floor with anything that isn't caught and raised in a BLACK zone. Additionally there have been reports of BLACK zone Pokémon knowing moves previously unrecorded, a perfect example is Lance's Charizard using BLAZE or BROCK seniors Onix knowing DIAMOND DEFENSE."
>
> "So I ask you all this question? Are you ready? Will you join me in seeking Power, Fortune and Fame?"
Ortega: "Well there you have it folks, I wish I was 20 years younger, I'd jump at the chance. I have been asked to inform all would be trainer's under the age of 18 that you require your parents consent to be allowed to journey with Jonathan on this expedition. All your expenses will be paid for however be aware that there is a greater chance of death and injury on this path than any found on our normal routes."
"Thank you for coming onto the show Jonathan and we look forward to seeing what the future holds in store for you. Let's give a warm and hearty round of applause to Jonathan Ketchum as we wish him GOOD LUCK!"
"Okay folks that's it today, next up we have the weather forecast followed by our newest reality show Rhyhorn demolitions where we TRY to get Pokémon to show us their mettle in breaking down and building up old and abandoned buildings, sometimes resulting in some funny escapades like last week's attack by a grumpy GENGAR on team Green."
