[??????????????????

Yeah, Egon...doesn't know how to react to that.]

???

What? Are you in some sort of pocket dimension?

Maybe? I'm not sure.

[A few minutes later there is a picture of a farmer. She's smiling happily and waving.]

She keeps calling me her son, however.

[Now that just confuses Egon even more.]

It's possible you may have fallen into a parallel dimension to the one we were previously in.

Ray, do you remember where you were before you arrived there? What you were doing, perhaps?

I'm not sure. :-( The last thing I remember is minding my own business, and suddenly I felt really dizzy and suddenly I woke up here.

Do you think there's a way out of this dimension?

[IMMEDIATE CONCERN THANKS]

Ah

Well, if you can still contact me, that must mean that the metaphorical distance between these dimensions are close, or that the fabric of space time is particularly permeable.

Try inspecting the local fauna. See if your gear reacts to it.

[Its fine don’t worry.]

Ok let me try this

[Then, a minute later.]

OH NO

IM BEING ATTACKED

EGON HELP ME!!!

[Along it is a picture of a Skiddo, sniffing the Pokegear curiously.

Very clearly not attacking Ray.]

Oh

Uh

[Cute does not necessarily mean Not Evil, as they learned with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man and Gozer. Rather than doing the reasonable thing and realizing that there was no Ray could have sent those messages if he was actually being attacked, Egon starts a video call with him. In an urgent tone, he says:]

Ray? Ray? Are you alright? Have you escaped the creature's clutches?

[When Egon turns on the video chat, he gets a picture of the pasture again. It's an awkward angle, but he can see Ray sitting on the ground, laughing as the Skiddo licks his face.]

C'mon, stop it, I give!

[Oh, that's Egon's voice. Ray picks up the Pokegear and waves.]

I'm afraid he still has me, Spengs.

Uh, hi, by the way.

[c:]

You don't...seem like you're in danger.

[Egon still doesn't allow himself to relax as he frowns at the goat-like creature. You can't trust mammals!]

Are you sure the creature's saliva hasn't affected you? Some of these creatures have poison secretions in their bodily fluids.

[Because why else would Ray send those messages if he were not in danger?]

[The Skiddo looks up at the Pokegear and bleats curiously at Egon. Strange man in the magic box??? Who is this??]

I'm pretty sure these guys don't have poison in them. All the Pokedex entires I've read on these little guys are how they coexist with humans and can live off of sunlight and water.

[...]

Spengs, I have to admit to you that I'm not actually in danger of anything.

[Egon straightens up a bit, relaxing at the confirmation that Ray is, in fact, not in danger.]

Ah. That's good to know. So these...goat-like creatures thrive on photosynthesis instead of consuming plants? Or are the goats in a symbiotic relationship with the plants that grow on their--

[...]

Where are you right now?

[Ray looks slightly uncomfortable and holds the Skiddo thoughtfully.]

Have you heard of the farm between Ecruteak and Olivine? I might have decided to go there while you guys were out.

Oh? That's interesting. Have you asked them what products they produce at the farm?

[....

Wait a second....]

Ray, weren't you supposed to keep off of your leg?

They specialize in milk and dairy products actually-!

[Ray perks up at first at Farm talk before the second part comes in.]

Come on, I was stir crazy enough laying in bed all day when you guys were with me! You couldn't expect me to lay in bed all day when you two are running off to have fun adventures without me!

Besides I was careful, I rode on Speed Racer so I technically didn't stay on my leg.

[Never mind he... fell off them a few times... he might have a few bruises he's fine.]

...

[Egon is satisfied with this. Of course, Venkman might protest once Egon tells him about it. He leans towards the camera a little bit.]

At least you're safe. Don't strain yourself too much, alright? We can't come help you if you get injured again.

[Actually, they can, they're just going to be disoriented as hell after warping, like, three times.]

But I am intrigued by the farm and how it differs from the rural establishments in my dimension. What else have you observed?

Aww don't worry, Spengs! The farmers here are taking great care of me!

[Thank god that was an easy fix.]

Beyond using Pokemon instead of animals? I can't say there's much of a different! However, it seems like a really old fashion farm here. They still all hand milk their cows!
