What Do The Others Say?

"I Wonder If I've Been Edged Out?"

"I wonder if I've been edged out?" Kevin said coming back in with the first aid kit.

"Huh?" Ash asked, and 'Lucky' nodded in agreement.

"I found out about this contest a month ago from 'Pikachu4UandMii', you know that guy we've been talking to on the alt.pokefan.com forums? I took the quiz but my score was in the 240 thousand last time I checked it and that was two weeks ago," Kevin said sadly.

"Why so glum chum?" Lucky asked.

"'Pikachu4UandMii' was counting on me to win, he took the quiz the first day but he focused too much on getting every question right. Because of the time portion of the scoring system his score was in the 2000s even though he scored a perfect 500, so he was edged out of winning the tickets within days. I just was so disappointed that I let him down even though I scored just over one-hundred-thousand.

"Well what are you waiting for? Check again!" Ash exclaimed, and punched up a blank webpage...

[Pokémon: Let's 'DO IT'!]

Three very good friends, one male, two female, and thier ambiguously gendered Japanese associate, end up being suckered into a trip to a world where Pokémon are real... (Adders Encouraged!)

About
Score

Three college students, one male, two female, all obsessed with Pokémon: win tickets for an 'all-expenses-paid' trip to Japan to be among the first guests to enter a new theme park built around the Pokémon franchise. They actually have four tickets but decide to share the last one with a Japanese friend, more an associate, they know online who is an even bigger Pokémon fanatic than they are. They have never met this fourth person, in fact they only know them by their online handle "Pikachu4UandMii", but they like him/her, (they don't even know thier friend's gender...) and know that if he/she had won the tickets he/she would have brought them along. Things go fine, (ok, with a few minor hiccups,) until they get on the "Ultimate Pokémon World Exchange" ride. This five thousand passenger bullet train is supposed to take them to Niantic headquarters for an exclusive Mew giveaway, but instead, as it accelerates into a tunnel there is a swirl of rainbow light and flashing stars! The next thing everyone aboard knows they are flying out of another tunnel: and straight into the ocean! ... An ocean filled with Horsea, Goldeen, and Starayu... Everyone on the train has been tricked! This "all-expenses-paid" trip is one-way: to a world where Pokémon are REAL! Now some of the people would have come quite willingly, except for the catch: in this Pokémon world, humans went extinct over a million years ago. Now the over a million guests coming to the park the first day, (selected from the entire world population for their encyclopedic knowledge of Pokémon, ) are being Shanghaid as colonists to settle this alien planet! Will the fours' friendship survive the stress of this new planet, or perhaps become something 'more'? Can they realize thier once futile dreams of becoming ace trainers? Can they survive in this alien world? Can they find a way to bring themselves and the other castaways home again? (Do they even want to?) And what do the twenty pokeballs that appeared in their luggage have to do with all this? Read on to find out! (Or, add your own chapters to create the answers for yourself!)
