WHO: Yuuki and the app
WHERE: The app
WHEN: After the chaos of November
WHAT: Yuuki has an update
WARNINGS: Yuuki might be rude?

good news everyone the radar ive been working on for POKEGO works with a 96% accuracy rate. we dont need to rely on Zodiac to track gates or new isekai arrivals. we might still want to let them leave their little welcome baskets because smartphones are expensive though

thanks to all the isekais who just burst out of the spirit realm btw. finally gave me something to test the radar on.

and if you didnt know: POKEGO got permission to study the tech Zodiac uses to track down spirit gates. now its our tech.

What is an isekais.

[killerapp]

its what people on the app call people who come from other realms. it means "other world" in Japanese

[godmaker]

I see. I have isekais from my past life's realm then, who arrived recently. Is the usage correct?

[killerapp]

yeah. which ones?

Was a hell of a time to finish the thing, we're lucky it didn't overload itself all things considered.

[killerapp]

only because i wasnt stupid enough to turn it on once we realized where we were

[fionnuisce]

sure, obviously. it's just good that we didn't turn it on and blow the damn thing up before we realized 'oh shit we're in hell'

would've been awkward.

[killerapp]

and expensive. 3D printers are a pain in the ass

That is good news! I must applaud your efforts, Shinope. 96% accuracy is nothing to scoff at! Well done. Keep at it and I'm sure this radar of yours will soon be detecting these gates and "isekais" with flawless precision!

[About 30 or so seconds pass before Yuuki receives another response.]

What exactly IS an isekai? And a POKEGO for that matter?

[killerapp]

@ POKEGO someone else get this guy

[sardinelover]

Did I say something strange?

[whiteshroud]

[Oh bless his heart, it's a moron]

Don't worry about it! Yuuki just has bad people skills.

Gotcha covered!

[Okay, with that out of the way, he'll just ping Valvatorez for the reply and--]

Okay, so, hi there, I take it you're new! My name's Josuke, and I'm a colleague of Yuuki's there.
"Isekai" is what people on this app here call people from other realms--it's just a term that means "other world" in Japanese. POKEGO is the organization that Yuuki and I both belong to; you can consider the organization Spirit Realm researchers, with a lot of us having different areas of expertise.

[sardinelover]

[Oh, he got a notification. How exciting! He's gotten more or less the hang of the smart phone since he's been here for a few days, but this tiny device's many functions never cease to amuse him.]

A pleasure to meet you, Josuke. My name is Valvatorez and I am familiar with the Japanese language. It's the primary language spoken in a country of the human world called "Japan", yes? I believe there are also a series of Netherworlds that use a similar dialect.

An organization of researchers, eh? Very impressive. I'm sure a certain scientist from back home would love to know more about this POKEGO. Regardless, I think I understand now. And these "spirit realms" you and that Shinope fellow above mentioned, are they like the labyrinth I found myself in when I first arrived? Or is it simply the word humans use in place of the term "netherworlds"?

Speaking as an "isekai" myself, I know I'd have liked it better if the welcome baskets came along with guides on how to use microwaves, washing machines, the like. And how to search for something on the Internet without a flood of irrelevant results to sort through first.

If any of the new arrivals have any suggestions I'd love to hear them as well.

[killerapp]

[Yeah here's just a link to Internet Use and Safety for Dummies. Sorry, he's like this.]

[jackdawvision]

Now, see, that would've been nice to have from the start months ago! Where's it been?

[killerapp]

on my harddrive. people never ask

[droptheious]

Oh wow, that's a great percentage, it's really come along. Consider me genuinely impressed.

[He's not being a snarky asshole about it or anything.]

I haven't seen such a massive surge of isekais for a while. Hope it doesn't mean anything, especially with what just happened. Guess at least we've got better means of tracking them now, huh? Maybe we can get a step ahead of this for once.

[killerapp]

im trying not to think about the connections to the yokai and the new isekais honestly. im just going to assume its coincidence for my sanity.

[droptheious]

Fair, really. Maybe it is. I'd say we'd need far more data around this before we should start worrying. It COULD just be a coincidence and we've got enough things to worry about as is.

But this is definitely a leg up we didn't have before, so thanks.

[killerapp]

it was Mikleos idea.

[Wow. Yuuki acknowledging, publicly, that he didn't think of this himself?!]

not like Zodiac wouldve let me at their tech without him anyway.

[...baby steps.]

un: yoru

[bethorns]

That's such a high score! Gold star worthy.

[ She has only the faintest clue of what he's talking about in terms of technology but at least she understands the end result... ]

I think welcome baskets with baked goods and fruits are the best kinds!

[ Though she immediately wanders off topic. ]

[killerapp]

ok

[Sorry Yor, but Yuuki is rude and does not care.]

[bethorns]

Are you working on other updates to pokecomputer stuff?
