"Ha~ nothing good again," sighed a teenager sprawled on his bed, yawning as he scrolled aimlessly through videos.
His name was Alex , and he had just wrapped up a gaming session. Looking to unwind with some entertaining clips, he found himself unimpressed by the selection.
Alex pouted, but then noticed a short video boasting over 10,000 likes.
"Shocked: He actually did this to his pet?"
"Old clickbait titles," Alex thought with mild amusement. The 'Shocked' series had been around forever, often overpromising. Still, classics had their charm, so he clicked in.
"Tsk tsk~ Over 10,000 likes in just three hours. Must be something," Alex observed, noting the video's recent upload time.
The video opened with a view of a neat room.
As the iconic "Pure Land of Bliss" music began, Alex, a dedicated otaku, felt a thrill of excitement.
"Instant like for the song!" he thought, fingers flying as he typed and sent his comment in seconds flat.
Then, as he continued watching, his eyes widened in disbelief.
The camera panned to reveal an enchanting creature in a white dress.
With ruby-like eyes and graceful hands holding a floral fan, its elegance was palpable—even through the screen.
Wow!
Though not human, Alex was captivated by the creature's beauty.
"What the...?"
His shock grew as the creature began moving to the "Pure Land of Bliss" rhythm, flower fan waving in perfect time.
Despite its lower body being a diamond-like structure, its upper body mimicked human movements with uncanny precision.
Its smile was graceful, its presence mesmerizing.
Most impressive of all...
This beautiful creature danced perfectly in sync with the music!
Stunned, Alex watched the enchanting little performer, his initial shock giving way to admiration.
What on earth!
This couldn't be CGI, Alex knew, having studied computer tech with private tutors. This was real. But what kind of creature was it? A pet?
If such a beautiful pet existed, surely the internet would have been abuzz long ago!
Eager for answers, Alex opened the comments section.
"Beautiful! Diancie is so beautiful!"
"Woo~ I'm in love—she's even winking at me!"
"I'd pay a fortune for a Diancie! I must have her!"
"What magical creature is this? So cute and graceful, and it can dance!"
"I'm overwhelmed! Someone, help me!"
Amid the comments, Alex caught the creature's name: Diancie.
Intrigued, he turned off the comments to focus on Diancie's graceful performance, a smile spreading across his face.
As "Pure Land of Bliss" concluded, Diancie spun elegantly, folding her fan and bowing with poise.
"Beautiful!" Alex couldn't resist typing, struck by Diancie's noble demeanor—like a well-educated lady.
This was incredible!
"Hello everyone~" came a clear male voice.
On screen, a clean-cut young man approached Diancie—Chris.
Alex felt a twinge of possessiveness, even wanting to warn, "Stay away from my Diancie!" But he restrained himself.
"What did you think of Diancie's performance? She's my little princess. It took a lot to convince her to be in this video," Chris said with a smile. Diancie, understanding, shyly hid her face with the fan.
"Maybe you're curious about Diancie. Let me clarify—there's no other Diancie in the world. So, please, no messages about buying her."
"Diancie is family, and I won't part with her," Chris stated firmly.
Alex was silent. He'd considered messaging Chris about acquiring Diancie but realized it was futile.
"But aside from Diancie, I have other magical pets. They, too, can bring joy. I run a pet shop, and you're welcome to visit."
"The shop's address is pinned in the comments—trust me, this shop is special."
With a shift in tone, Chris added with a smile, "Say goodbye to our lovely friends."
Diancie tilted her head, her eyes forming crescents as she waved goodbye.
So cute!
Then the video ended.
"Pokémon pet shop," Alex repeated, diving into the comments. With over 10,000 responses, he wasn't surprised.
He found the shop's address—Magic City. Coincidentally, he was there too.
In that case...
Should I go check it out?
