[Papyrus appears on camera in the Pokemon Center. He looks...very upset. He's clearly been bawling.]

I...I FAILED!

F-F-FALKNER'S BATTLE POWRESS WAS SO...SO....ADVANCED! MUH-MUY FWIENDS WERE-!

[He dissolves in to tears again.]

NYOO HOO HOOOOOOOO! MY POOR FRIENDS! THEY FOUGHT SO BRAVELY! THEIR DETERMINATION TO WIN WAS CLEARLY MUCH MORE THAN FALKNER'S BUT STILL!

[He sobs more, the healing jingle can just barely be heard behind them. Suddenly! He's tackled by his Shinx and Litleo!]

MY FWIENDS!!!!! YOU'RE NOT DUUUUUUST! [Annnnd, cue the tearful reunion. Papyrus hugs his partners tightly!] I'M SHO HAPPEHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

[Oh. Oh no. That's so sad... Thank goodness those Pokemon aren't dust.]

Don't cry, those battles are really hard, zura...

[Blubbering!] BUH MUH FWIENNNNNNNNS!

[monge]

Y-Yeah, it's really sad when they get hurt, zura...

But they're also weird, so I think they like the fighting, zura.

[...He means that as lovingly as possible.]

I LIKE COMBAT TOO-!

BUH-BUT I WAS SO SCAREEEEEEEED!

...There's no need to cry. Gym battles are difficult at first, but after some rest and a few more weeks of training for your Pokémon, I've no doubt you'll win the badge easily.

[Blubbering!] I THOUGH THEY WERE GONNA TURN TO DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUST!

[video]

[paladinlost]

Turn to dust? As far as I know, even legendaries do not possess such power. A strong Fire-type attack could burn their hair to cinders, but little more than that.

Re: [video]

[coolskeleton_95]

BUT THEIR HP WENT TO ZERO!

[wing_attack]

[... He lost to Falkner? Tobias will try to be nice, but he doesn't... like Falkner at all.]

Falkner's not that tough, really. Just keep training your Pokemon and they should be fine.

[coolskeleton_95]

BUT WHAT IF THEY DIE NESS TIMEEEEEEE??????

[Video]

[wing_attack]

... They won't. They'll just get knocked out again if they lose. Then you take them to the Pokemon Center and they get healed.

[veggie_vamp]

Awww, Papy! I'm sure you'll beat him someday!

[coolskeleton_95]

HE ALMOS KILL THEM AN DIND'T CAREEEEE!!!!!! [So distraught!]

[veggie_vamp]

[... okay it's getting a little harder to understand-]

Huh? Falkner does his best, but I don't think he'd go that far!

[Video]

[killer_sweets]

Have you never heard of being Knocked out before?

[Video]

[coolskeleton_95]

BUH IF YOUER HP GOES TO ZERO THEN YOU DIE 'N TURN TO DUSSSSSS!

[Video]

[killer_sweets]

No you just get knocked out, I don't think anyone has informed you, but no one can die in this world, not you or your Pokemon.

...Also why the hell would they turn to dust?

[donoteat]

[So loud... Yachi has no idea who this is, but he must be very strong if he's crying to this extent-- he must have never lost a battle before! She has, multiple times, and knew the disappointment in losing, but... not to this extent. But it makes her happy to see him cheer right up when his friends return.] Hi... My name's Yachi. Can you tell me, who is Falkner? [she imagines a huge hulking bully tbh, how could someone do such a thing as making another person cry like this] Your friends look okay... Are you okay?

[coolskeleton_95]

[Papyrus is not having a good time right now.] I THOUGHT THEY WERE GONNA TURN TO DUSSSSSSST!!!!!

[donoteat]

[There's the mention of dust again. She swallows hard, pressing her lips together as her nerves creep skyward.

Whoever this Falkner guy is, he must be the end boss, Yachi reasons. Fire or electric Pokémon that can burn or zap other Pokémon into charcoal, maybe a psychic type that can turn a Pokémon into stone and disintegrate into dust with a mere touch of breath.]

Urk... I can't imagine going up against someone like that and living to tell the tale...! The fact that you all escaped with your lives shows how strong you are!

[creatinglight]

Your friends really care for you, it looks like. I'm sure you'll be able to win next time!

[charcoalfeather]

[Oh my.... Is this what she's in for?]

Uh! Please, try to calm down. It sounds like it was really hard for you.

[and on you. Papyrus...]

Re: [Video]

[coolskeleton_95]

IT WAS HOWWIBLE! MY FWIIIIIIENDS!

[Video]

[charcoalfeather]

I-it was? Well, t-they're alright, aren't they? How bad could the battle really be?

[Rakka are you sure you really want to be asking that-]
