Cheeky Monkey HD.Com, the expert Pokemon hunter, was not only not sat in the driver’s seat of his bright yellow jeep, but, incredibly, he wasn’t even near it.  Why?  Well, Cheeky Monkey HD.Com, the expert Pokemon hunter, was stood with his hand around the door knob of the front door of the Palace of Westminster, which contained the clock tower, which contained the bell which is colloquially known as “Big Ben”.  As it happened, it also contained the mischievous Pokemon know as “Itchibum”. Indeed, this was the very reason for Cheeky Monkey HD.Com’s imminent rotation of said door handle; the game was certainly, at this stage, very much afoot.

“Creeeeak,” said the door handle, as if complaining about being so brusquely turned.  Cheeky Monkey HD.Com took this as a sign that he was on the right track.

“Creeeeeak,” said the door, as if whinging indignantly about the inappropriateness of being opened so forcefully.  Cheeky Monkey HD.Com laughed at the sheer audacity of the hinges.

“Squeeeeak,” said the rubber sole of Cheeky Monkey HD.Com’s sneaker as it stepped onto the cold stone floor of the hallway of the Palace of Westminster as he entered the magnificently wasteful building.

“Let’s catch me a Pokemon,” whispered Cheeky Monkey HD.Com to himself, as he walked to the bottom of the staircase that would lead upwards – ever upwards – towards the the clock tower, which contained the bell which is colloquially known as “Big Ben”, which also contained the Pokemon called Itchibum.

“You’re never going to catch me,” echoed the voice of Itchibum from the top of the tower, as Cheeky Monkey HD.Com began to climb the stairs.  “Let alone ‘catch ’em all’.”

“Oh we’ll see about that,” declared Cheeky Monkey HD.Com using the accent of an old-timey Western prospector, yet again.  “I got me a Pokemon to catch. Yeeeee haaaaaaa!”

And when an expert Pokemon hunter, such as Cheeky Monkey HD.Com, repeatedly uses the accent of an old-timey Western prospector, you would not be mistaken in your belief that the game is most certainly afoot.
