[Option 1]
[When the camera turns on, Raihan's already facing it with a ready smile. He gives a tilt of his head and a two-fingered wave, and something red passes behind him, too quick to parse what it is.]
Hey there! I'm Raihan, a brand new arrival to this place! I'd be right chuffed to meet all of you [He says this with a wink-], but I've only got two questions at the moment.
First off, anyone here know what Pokemon are? [Because so far, he hasn't met anyone who does, and it's outright maddening to witness a world that doesn't know what they are, let alone not adapted to a life of living alongside them.] If not, I'll gladly show them to you, though that brings me to my next question.
[The red thing passes again, and if one has good eyes, they might find that the face on the back looks a bit concerned before it disappears from view once more.]
Is there a beach nearby? Or at least a big pile of sand and a good-sized tub of water. Even better if the climate is fairly chilly.
[He's jolted by something, as if his hip got shoved, and that easy-going smile of his turns just a bit more strained.]
Oof. And hurry, please. If you wouldn't mind.
[Option 2]
[Later, when all that is settled, Raihan addresses everyone once more. It's that time of evening where a golden glow shines on everything, including Raihan himself. Seems he chose this time specifically for the lighting, as all the golds and pinks just enhance everything.]
Hullo again, everyone! The Great Raihan has another question for you lot!
[As he poses with his hand thoughtfully on his chin, a couple of eyestalks stick up in view just to the side of his jaw.]
I've seen plenty of ways to get money around here, so my question is a bit more specific. How does one go about bringing something here from home, assuming it's possible? I'm missing quite a bit of my team is all, and if the ones I have now were brought to the shite box, then I reckon the rest ought to be as well.

option one | un: j.porter
[She gives a little wave and a smile.]
I do know what Pokémon are! [Though she would still very much like to see the ones that Raihan has with him.] I've seen them before. You might struggle to find what you're looking for close to Camelot... Is everything all right?
no subject
[If that smile could get any bigger, his face would probably split. Finally! Someone who's heard of them!!]
Oh, which ones have you seen? Do you come from my world, too? Which region, if so? I might-
[-know it, but another hard shove to his hips makes him snap out of it. Right, focus!]
Ah, my bad. Things, well, aren't all right on my end. My mates here, see, they just figured out their abilities don't work here. You know, the ones they've had all their life?
no subject
[She's not about to assume that Raihan would have known him. In fact she would slightly pity anyone who did... he hadn't been the friendliest or most well-mannered of people.]
He had one he called Golisopod. [And she probably has a drawing of it somewhere. Her expression shifts to sympathy though, at the tail end of what the young man says.]
Oh, dear... they must be terribly distressed.
no subject
Ah, sorry. You sound Galarian, is all. [Although her accent is a bit dated, but it's definitely there, just like his own.] But hey, I know someone who has that one!
[Though it hasn't quite hit that he won't see his friends for a while, otherwise the reminder of Nessa would be a little more painful for him.]
I've never actually seen them this distressed before. The way I see it, they can get out all their aggression in a safe environment where they feel most at home, then we can figure out what to do from there. All three of them have different habitual preferences, but a beach takes care of two, at least.
no subject
But that's interesting - she sounds... Galarian? She'll have to ask him about that, but right now her concern is more for the distressed Pokémon and how she could possibly help.]
It's going to be difficult to stay at the beach... I don't think there are many places to live down there, and Camelot itself is quite far away. [Jane frowns, giving a little shake of her head that's directed more at herself.]
They aren't going to get hurt, are they?
no subject
[That, meaning a new city and a new place of residence. Their lack of powers, on the other hand...]
No, they shouldn't. Although I'm sure they'll be flattered to know a lovely lady like you is worried for them! [He... frowns a bit, though, the easy smile fading.] But just in case, do you know of any kind of potions I could give them? The healing kind?
[It's just occurred to them that, with this being a different world, there probably isn't a Pokemon center, or anything that could heal a Pokemon's wounds specifically. That's a bit problematic.]
no subject
[And... she's never been told that it only works on people. Why would it not work on animals too, or Pokémon? One wound is the same as another, after all, and she can't see any reason why not.]
It's a long trip down to the bay, but... if you're planning to stay down there, I can hire a coach to meet you.
[Or, hopefully, Raihan has an easier way to get the Pokémon to the Red Springs, or to Camelot, once they've worked their agitation out of their system.] You should really make sure you don't get left behind!
