{ i'm an idol } ❥ video/action for route 31
[It's raining again. For people in towns, it may not be so bad, but personally Iori can't stand being stuck in a cheap tent without much in change of clothes. She's sitting on the edge of the tent, wringing out her wet skirt with a mutter of annoyance. A cute bunny plush doll sits by her side, resting with her.]
This is worse than before we made our debut... At least back then, we had some kind of hotel to stay in. [With dry clothes and futons and yeah, no one really knew them back then, but it was better than this.] Geez... How much longer will this go on?
[And then, remembering something, she reaches for a pokéball and summons her starter, Mawile, inside the tent. With those huge horns on her head that resemble jaws, Mawile is... intimidating to look at to say the least. Iori seems a little put off by her scary facade too.]
I guess I should finally decide on a name for you, huh? Just "Mawile" isn't pretty enough. If you're going to be my Pokémon, you have to be as cute and princess-like as your Trainer, okay? First lesson ♥
[Mawile does not comprehend this pretentiousness, but Iori thinks, tapping a finger to her chin.]
Let's see... "Claire"? "Amy"? "Marie"? "Giselle"? ... "Louise"? What do people name their Pokémon after anyway?
[None of these suggestions seem to have any effect on Mawile, who starts to wander off to the comfier parts of the tent. Meaning the pillow.]
Hey- Get back here, I'm not done!

[there is so much no seriously fuck nature contained in that statement that it's practically tangible.]
In any case, I'd suggest picking a theme and sticking to it. For example, I've been naming my Pokemon after artists.
[video]
A theme, huh? That might work... What kind of theme should I do though?
[video]
You brought up a 'debut,' didn't you? From that, I'll assume you're some sort of performer. Do you have any influences?
[video]
That's right! I'm an idol~♪ [she seems pleased to be acknowledged for such.] Hm, our group name is based off the legend of the dragon god's palace. But that was mainly Ritsuko's idea. She picked us because we each had something relating to water in our names.
Still, I don't want to use Ritsuko's ideas as my own.

[GUESS WHO DOESN'T PAY TOO MUCH ATTENTION TO MODERN POP CULTURE, ESPECIALLY JAPANESE POP CULTURE...]
I was talking about the sorts of people who inspired you.

[kayneth not everyone is pretentious as you are]

POSSIBLY]
Useless? Ha. What would your influences even be? Over-commercialized popular musicians?
