Subject: [PW!][PKMN-AUCTION] The second day of the Porygon demo Date: 8 Apr 1999 22:54:49 GMT From: kirb9701@aol.computer (Kirb9701) Organization: AOL http://www.aol.com Newsgroups: alt.games.nintendo.pokemon Night had fallen, and Dan was walking to Celadon City Hotel, where he was staying while the auction events had taken place. He was thinking about what had happened during the Porygon demo. - Six programmers explained about the Porygon's transformation ability. Each shouted a word, telling what the Porygon was going to transform into. The book Dan received told that that was the activation word, chosen during the programming process, and that the word or phrase could actually be anything. Then a raffle was held, where the six demonstration Porygons would be given away. Dan didn't enter, since he already had a Porygon of his own. As the numbers were called, people went up to claim the Porygons. One girl who was accompanied by an Eevee ran up shouting, grabbed a Porygon, and ran out. After the demo, Dan gave his Porygon to the head programmer, who entered a "car" program into his Porygon... - Flipping through the book in his room, Dan found many transformation programs in the back, including Car, Truck, Pokeball, Plane, and many more. "Porygon could be very useful with those transformations..." Dan thought, dozing off... - As he woke up, Dan heard an announcement on the radio: "Porygon demonstration extended! Come to Celadon Mansion!" "The demo was extended? I can't miss this," Dan said as he ran out of the hotel. "I see you're back again," the man on the first floor said to Dan. Dan walked up the stairs to the floor where the demo was being held. "So, you're back for Day 2?" the head programmer said. "Want another transformation for your Porygon?" "I sure would!" Dan said. "Okay," the programmer said. "Come into this room." He showed Dan the special machine that was hooked up to the computer. "Porygon must be placed in here," he said. Dan placed Porygon in the machine. "Now we must enter the program, in 'Pory-code', into Porygon. Then we enter the activation word to start the transformation. What would you like? The Plane transformation?" "Yes," Dan said. Outside the room, the programmer gave Dan his Porygon back. "Now your Porygon can transform into a plane. Very useful if your best flying Pokémon is tired out." "Thanks," Dan said. He found a seat in the demonstration room and waited for the next demo to begin... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Does anyone want to interact with my character at the demo (or at least mention him)? Gotta catch 'em all, Pokemon! "Come right this way!" "No, not me, Psyduck!" "Don't be so hard on yourself, you're as pretty as any Psyduck!" -Misty and TR, "Pokémon Fashion Flash!"
