[NPC] More introductions [Video]
[The video feed cuts on, and a quite rotund fellow is shown sitting back in a chair. He addresses the entire network.]
Fellow new inhabitants of Kalos, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dr. Eggman, and I am currently researching the reason and the means of these... dimensional portals opening up. Like you, I was also brought to this place against my will, and since then have devoted my time and energy to finding a way back. You'll notice part of my handiwork, this network that you are all using. Using the existing technology that this world has to offer, I've enhanced the abilities of both the Holo-Caster you're using to view this and the PSS tablet you are wearing around your wrists. Or whatever you're wearing it around.
Anyway, the point of this broadcast is for me to... touch base with all of you. I understand that you are all the largest group to appear by far, and thus come from the largest collective worlds. I'm looking for knowledge that can assist me with enhancing the technology in such a way that would allow us to temporarily control the dimensional portals, and to open one up for those of you who would like to return home. Obviously not everyone wants to leave, but some of you would like to go home, yes? I thought so.
I await your answers.
[Private to Sonic and Tails, unhackable]
And yes, I know both of you are here. I'd much appreciate it if you would keep quiet about the past, at least until I can find a way back home.

[Private to Eggman and Tails]
Give me one good reason why I should, Egg head.

And if there's one thing you've got to believe, it's this: even if another dimensional portal opens up, there's no guarantee it'll send you back home. There's hundreds, no, millions of universes out there that they could lead to. If I can find out how the portals work, I can literally open the correct ones at any time and open a way home.
But you don't have to take my word for it. Just ask your twin-tailed friend.
[Private]
He's right, Sonic. Those dimensional portals are one-way, and there's no telling where the next one will lead. And no guarantees that you'll ever find another one on the other side. While we might be able to find a portal without his help... and I hate to say it... we need to try to work together.
[To be fair, Tails could easily keep an eye on Eggman by reverse-engineering the network, but... that wasn't his style.]
Just keep your end of the bargain, Eggman. We haven't forgotten the last time we had to help you out of a mess and you used it to your advantage.
[Private]
Great. It was the whole Lost Hex incident all over again. And that just happened the other day! Though it was strange that Eggman said he was here for a month.
He does calm down and sighs.]
Fine.
If you try something funny, we'll come after you.
[Private]
If you find anything interesting, do be sure to let me know. I'll be waiting.
[The feed clicks off.]
[Private to Sonic]
[Private to Tails]
By the way, you're acting rather calm about this. I would have thought you would have objected or got angry.
[He did screw up hugely and hurt his buddy and almost got him turned into a robot.]
[Private]
Well... I wanted to wait before bringing this up, since I kinda already knew, but... I suppose better late than never.
The short version is that I'm not the Tails you know. I'm actually from an alternate timeline where most of us ended up at an academy that was connected to quite a few worlds for a couple of years. I learned a lot of stuff while I was there, and dimensional portals were among those things.
At first I wasn't sure whether to believe the alternate timeline stuff or not, but I've met a lot of people back at that academy that knew me before but didn't remember me when they left and returned.
[To be fair, he has no idea how much has changed compared to if none of them had gone to the academy...]
What gave it away that I'm not from your timeline was you not knowing anything about Pokemon, whereas the Sonic I'm familiar with does. I'm actually turning 18 this month, if that gives any indication.
[Private]
Whoa you're gonna be 18? Man, my little bro is all grown up now.
[video]
I-I've...been to two other worlds...b-before this one. O-One of them, I was...able to pass back and forth pretty freely...with the help of this... [She holds up her D-Stream.]
I-It...didn't work in the last world I was in, though...and i-it's not working now...b-but...i-if you wanted to look at it...m-maybe you could figure out how it was able to...o-open up other worlds...?

[She'd prefer to have it back in one piece.]

...
Mind running that by me again but with more explanation? Can't say I've heard of these dimensional portal things or this technology or, hell, pretty much anything going on around here. Including this... thing. [He motions to the tiny Litleo currently at his side, setting small bits of grass on fire.]
