Oh, hey guys. Long time no see, huh? Banjo is in SmashAnyways on with the show >  > <  < ^ ^ < < > > < < ^ ^ < < ^ ^ < < < < ^ ^ You decide the best possible action for you to take is to bombard Phoenix with multiple questions at the same time, most overlapping with each other and most being ‘Who are you?’ ‘What’s going on?’, and ‘Why are you here?’. You do this while doing the Fortnite Default Dance in the T-pose to assert dominance. Phoenix is very confused. Fittingly, an EDM remix of a High School Musical theme plays over this scene. Which one? That one. You know the one. Phoenix: Please! One question at a time! Maybe start with something easy, like… (Who be you?) Phoenix: Me? Well, I’m...uhm...my name’s Phoenix Wright, I’m an Attorney. A new one…Maya: And I’m a Spirit Medium! ...In training! Phoenix: Right…so yeah. This is M- Maya: I’m helping Phoenix with his investigation. Phoenix: M...my partner in investigation! Yes. (What’s with the hat?) Phoenix: I’m...not wearing a hat? Duly noted. (Where are we?) Phoenix: Los Angeles, of course. Big-Ears: Brassmoon, of course. Some dude I guess: The Grand Canyon? The sign for the Pokemon Gym nearby says ‘Fuchsia City’, so for now you’re assuming it’s that. (What are we doing here, anyways?) This is where Phoenix started saying a bunch of stuff that I’m too lazy to describe in-character. And where you lovely people get a recap for this huge segment! Basically, Phoenix was working under someone by the name of Mia who was murdered last night just before he came to visit her for lunch. When he arrived at the scene of the crime, that’s when he found two people: His ‘partner in investigation’ and some kind of green gremlin by the name of Peridot. Soon after, someone screamed from the window of a nearby building, and a couple of men wearing pig masks busted into the room, placing the three under arrest and bringing them in for questioning. The next day, Phoenix and his partner were released from questioning, while Peridot was kept under arrest for the time being. Phoenix’s partner, Maya, whose name C still doesn’t know, suspects something is off, and suggested that perhaps Peridot is innocent, and that foul play might be afoot! To this end, the two (and your massive, aimless following) have been searching around town for clues and suspicious happenings, two of which coming up almost immediately: a giant screw tower on the edge of town, guarded by those Pigmasks, and a stray monkey wandering the streets, wearing a suspicious collar. Bringing the monkey to the local Piglice Station, the group finds out that it’s owned by someone by the name of Fassad, who works as a high-ranking officer at the tower. Soon after, the group was ambushed by those mysterious stand users, one of whom is Hatstand Mikan… Crimson nods his head, pretending to understand any of that. Then this happens. While you T-pose. And some of the group acts as backup dancers. During the dance routine, you kick off a soccer ball Foosball style at Hatsune Miku, who falls down and is quickly trampled by the flaming horse, and the guy chasing it. Edgeworth: Nani the fuck? Phoenix: (Wait...was that...no, that’s not important right now. That chick with the teal hair has to know something about what’s going on, I just know it!) Miku, too stunned to get up, is very quickly approached by Phoenix...and a few of the far more intimidating members of the group, to boot. You approach as well, though your appearance is a fair bit less intimidating. Phoenix: Okay...so I know we kind of got on the wrong footing back there...I think you might have tried killing me? Point is, I think you know a few things, and...uhm…maybe you’d be willing to tell us something about what’s going on here? Jotaro: Or else. Phoenix: ...What the buff guy said. So, viewers at home, how do you think Phoenix should go about interrogating Hatsune Miku? Vote now on your phones. |

Miku starts backing up while still lying on the ground, while Phoenix takes a moment to think of how to go about interrogations. And that’s when Miku’s response comes:
Miku: Y-you’ll never get me to tell you anything! I’ll just come back stronger than before! I’ll-
Yeah. you’re not sure about Phoenix, but that’s not an acceptable answer for you. You walk over to Miku menacingly, your Persona Stand Magma materializing behind you. It tilts itself down towards Miku, blasting the pop idol up into the sky.
Phoenix: H-hey, wait! I thought we were going to-
You just shrug. You’ve never had any idea what’s going on and you’ve been getting along fine. You make sure to audibly voice this thought, too, since you suspect nobody has any clue whether you’re actually talking or not.
Phoenix: But...if we don’t know how or why she was sent out against us, we might end up getting blindsided again…
Another shrug. A shrug that, incidentally, is timed in line with Miku falling face down in front of that weird fire ghost riding a ponyta. Which tramples Hatsune Miku a second time. As does the other guy chasing after said horse.
Phoenix: ...Then again, if stuff like that keeps happening, I’d be inclined to feel bad for them.
The group collectively walks over, as pretty much the end of the last update repeats itself, word-for-word.
Miku: Fine, fine! I’ll talk! But it won’t help any!
Phoenix: Alright, how about we start with something simple. Who sent you?
Miku: Sorry, but I’m under contract not to say~
Phoenix: ...Wait, really? (I suspected as much…)
Miku: You think assassination is all milk and cookies? They’ll have my head if I spill the beans!
Phoenix: Then...is there anyone in specific you were sent to assassinate? That can’t also be under contract, can it?
Miku: Maybe it is! Maybe it isn’t! I’ll never say.
Jotaro: Yare Yare daze...you’re a stand user, and so were the last ten people sent to kill us. Is it that big a secret?
Miku: Hey, it’s not *just* that!...ah, fuck.
Phoenix: ...Wait, stand-
In but an instant, Jo’s Star Platinum picks up Miku by the scruff of her shirt. She squirms a bit, as the stand user looks her dead in the eyes.
Jotaro: I’m beginning to lose my patience. Now, either you can stop dancing around the issue, or you can start thinking about walking home in crutches.
Miku: F-fine! It was Dio! But you should know Dio has other allies in this city! Like...those Pig-looking freaks! They don’t like you snooping around in their business!
Phoenix: Business…? How have we been snooping? Sure, that business with the monkey was weird, but that doesn’t mean-
Miku: Look, I don’t know the full details myself! I just know the Joestars have to die, and they’re traveling along with you! It all lines up too perfectly!
Phoenix: (Hold on a second. Why ARE they so prevalent in town now? I’ve seen them acting as officers, construction workers, mailmen...are they even allowed to make freelance arrests?)
Phoenix: One last question. You wouldn’t happen to know what they’re doing here in general, would you?
Miku: No, and I don’t really care. Part of taking contracts like this is knowing as little as possible about the contractor, and I don’t even know any individual names. Just the suits. Literally, in this case!
Phoenix: Well, I can’t think of anything else to ask, so-
Star Platinum: HUOOOOOAAAAAAAAA!
Star Platinum gently lets go of Miku, who faceplants.
Jotaro: …
Phoenix: ...Is something wrong?
Jotaro: This is usually the part where they get up and do a desperation attack.
Miku: Uuuuuugh…
Phoenix: You said ‘ten or so’ earlier. Are they usually like this?
Jotaro: They’re a lot more...deceptive.
Phoenix mulls this encounter over in his head, piecing together a very important fact: The Pigmasks did ultimately perform the arrest on Peridot. If he has any hope of actually questioning her on what happened that night, he’ll need to ask a higher-up about where they’re keeping her. Which...may very well be that tall tower on the edge of town. Thing is, now there’s a bigger risk to doing so than ever before…
Oh, hey! That’s right, Fuchsia Gym is right next to the gang! We haven’t done a gym inforever, and maybe this time it won’t be a bubble death trap!
Phoenix: Is now really a good time to exercise?
Where should the group go?
>Fuchsia City Gym
>Strange Screw-shaped Tower

Briefly consider riding a train and solving a different, unrelated murder mystery (for practice) while on it. Ride the train to the gym, only to have a dramatic showdown with David Bowie the culprit as you pull up.

Let's split up, gang
Since my voice will be drowned out by majority if I say to go to the screw, I won't suggest it and instead merely suggest that whatever it is you do, catch Hamlet Michelle.

So, it’s settled! Your next and biggest priority is gonna be the Pokemon Gym! It’ll be good to have updates that don’t take forever to come out get some rest and relaxation between all the murder mysteries and interdimensional conspiracies. The brief thought comes to you to maybe derail the CYOA into a train murder mystery, but the last time you rode any kind of transport you wounded up in a desert in the middle of nowhere and you’re not sure you’re ready for that kind of vacation yet. Plus, the Gym is right here. Why would you take the train there? Especially when the train is going to take itself to you!  Charging straight at you is Charge Man, yet another of those pesky robot dudes!...Whom you sidestep away from as he charges straight into the Gym wall, murdering himself. Mystery solved! Gained TM138(Charge Kick)! Well, now that that’s out of the way, you might as well enter your gym challenge...but first, you still have the matter that is Mike Pizzune. So, you do what compels you most in situations like this...throwing bakemeat at stuff! This time at Miku, and in the shape of a pokeball!  You caught Hatsune Miku! In any case, you enter the Gym building, blissfully ignoring the giant Pig head plastered on top of the sign. Once inside, you see the inside of the building, which looks...well, kinda empty, with Pigmask Soldiers just standing around in place. The walls of the gym itself are pretty much plastered from wall to wall with images of Pigmask propaganda, pictures of pigs, and posters dedicated to a band called ‘DMCA’. On the other end of the gym is a big, buff Pigmask standing in place. Next to the entrance is a Pigmask wearing blue. “Hey there, Champ in the making! I see you’ve finally arrived here in Fuchsia! Well...I’m pretty sure that guy over there is NOT Koga, the usual Gym Leader, but there’s a lot of substitutions in Gyms lately, so I can’t say I’m too surprised. I’m also not sure why they asked me to wear this weird get-up, but...it’s comfy, so I can’t really complain. Anyways, I have no clue who that guy is, but I’ve been assured by the gym trainers here that he, along with themselves, use ‘pig-type pokemon’, but I don’t think that’s a thing? Either way, this place is pretty tricky, being filled with a lot of invisible walls...but I’m sure you can manage! dowat |

Throw paint all over the walls so you can see where they are.

Use the Dweller Mask to see the walls, it's foolproof! Although watch out for anything that may become intangible while it is in effect.

You stare ahead for a bit, carefully considering your options. Clearly, the best way to deal with this problem is to combine your Dweller’s Mask with paint in order to make some kind of...paint...thing. However, you have neither of these things. Soooo...what’s the next best thing? You pull out your long-unused Floatzel mask and spend one minute checking inventory due to contradicting inputs from the chat...digging out those colorful potions you bought from Gamzee forever ago. You’re...pretty sure that’s paint. Maybe. You hope so. Anyways, let’s get to fusing, we haven’t done this in, like, forever. Fusing the items together...or, rather, just pouring the potions on top of the mask, gives you the Painted Floatzel Mask, which you don upon your head to turn into...Paintzel(?)! With this fabulous mask, your hydro pump turns into a far more colorful barrage of...color, that you proceed to vomit all over the walls. Not the most elegant strategy, but hey, it works. You use this method to find your way around the maze, until you run into a Pigmask! Pigmask: Ha! Thought I was the leader? It’s an easy mistake to make with all of us looking the same...but now that we’re staring each other in the face, it’s time for a Pokemon battle!  Pigmask Foot Soldier sent out Spoink! |

Run past the spoink and over that hill. You'll know what you wanna say then, right? There's something you have to say!
....Oh, unfortunate. The spoink got trampled by the horde of people following you.

You stare at the Spoink for a bit as it bounces up and down, becoming fixated on those absolutely tiny arms...and you can’t help but laugh. “Hey, stop that!”, the Pigmask cries out in defiance. “My Pokemon’s very sensitive of his nose! Send out a pokemon so I can make you regret the choice of sounds coming from your mouth!” You shrug, sending out the first mon you’ve ever had...your fist! You launch it straight into the face of that oinker, sending it flying back and against the Pigmask soldier, fainting both. You get money, which I am not keeping track of because you have infinite-ish money. You continue to navigate through the maze of paint vomit and come across yet another Pigmask soldier. This one appears to be wearing pink, same as the other. “Halt! You can’t get any further than this without doing...whatever you Pokemon Trainers do!”  Pigmask Foot Soldier sent out Tepig!This would matter to you at all if you didn’t have the urge to run to the nearest hill that is, for whatever reason, now inside the Gym. You run up it, along with your 80+ followers (which might be violating SOME kind of building population code), shouting a word that you so desperately want to get out to the world. ᔕᑌᑕᑕ Anyways the Tepig fainted. And the Pigmask. ᔕᑌᑕᑕESS! Further going into the mask is...gasp! Another Pigmask blocking the way! What a shock. “Ack! Y-you’re that C guy, a-aren’t you? Okay, all my training the past two hours has led up to this. Let’s do this!”  Pigmask Foot Soldier sent out Pigmask Foot Soldier!Oh noes! I’m out of actions. Quick, send this update to ten of your friends and have them post, too, or you will be cursed with bad breath. |

Send out 3. If they're gonna do recursion, then gods be damned you're gonna do recursion too.
3: Send out Treeko.
Treeko: Send out C.
C: Send out 3.
3: Send out Treeko.
Treeko: Punch the Pigmask foot soldier into unconsciousness. Totally not death. Nope. Send out C.

C: Present your reverse card.
Treeko: Huh. Well, send out 3 then.
3: Present your Skip. Send out Treeko.
Treeko: Send out 3 again, you guess.
3: Present your draw 2.
C: Present another draw 2, to pass on the stack.
Treeko: Present a DRAW 4
3: NANI?! Pass the stacking on to the trainer pigmask with another Draw 4!

What? That guy sent himself out? You refuse to stand for this recursion, even though you sent yourself out last post. The only real answer to this is to send out yourself, but to alternate! 3! 3, Being you but opposite, would rather do the logical thing and send out his own Pokemon, Treecko, who...well, now they’re playing Timespace Uno again. You send out a rverese card, which sends out C, who then sends out 3 skip cards and 3’s reverse card, while each of the three Skip Cards send out their own Treeckos, which each have their own piece of Exodia, as well as 3’s Piece of Exodia. You also use your own piece of Exodia, summoning the big guy to the field! He proceeds to throw down a Draw 2, which causes you to draw 2 Fire Energy Cards from your deck, which you place down face-first on the field, ending your turn. That’s when 3 draws a Draw 4, passing it onto each Treecko, whom each draw their own Draw 4 until it becomes the Pigmask’s turn. He has no Draw 4, and drowns in cards. SMAAAAAAAAAASH!The Pigmask was tamed! This onslaught of Pigs is getting annoying, so you second the fourth action, which seconds the first action, sending out 3. 3 sends out Treecko, Treecko sends out you, and you send out your fist, sending it careening through the not-so-invisible walls and straight into that big, muscly Pigmask Soldier! “Hey! What’s the big idea? We haven’t even begun our match!...ah, Screw it! Get ready for a thrashing, punk!”  Gym Leader Fierce Pork Trooper doesn’t even wait for you to post an action! He immediately punches you in the face. |

Joke's on him! You were actually primed to explode from the moment you walked in, and him punching you in the face has activated the ability of Auto-Kamikazee, causing you to explode in his face!
...don't worry, you'll float back down on a respawn platform. Eventually.
