[More rain? Hm, maybe Norman shouldn't complain. Then again any day that had the sky falling always puts a damper on his day. Especially rain.
But hey! Norman is inside and you (presumably) are inside. All is good in the neighborhood.
Unlike his previous video posts, this one is intentional. Look ma, it's even planted on top of a tripod and everything! And even when he is stranded in a strange world full of magical creatures who are willing to do your bidding, Norman still has time to look disheveled in his gray suit.
So what does the man have to say standing up next to an illuminated projector scree- Oh.
Issat? Issat what I think it is? Ohhhhhh snap.]
Hello. My name is Norman Jayden. I've been residing over the Johto region for a little over three months now.
[He paces over to the other side of the projector screen.]
At the beginning of the year I proposed compiling a small, simple manual to help the newcomers to help adjust to their situation with basic wilderness survival pointers. A majority of this information were from others who know their way around.
[Norman pulls out a small remote out from his pocket and presses the button. The screen then goes from blank with words on it which read:
Beginner's Manual
Again he paces to the opposite side of the screen because like any good public speaker, you pace around the very presentation you have been working on for more than a month. Look it up! It's Chapter 4 in 'Fidgeting for Dummies'.]
I won't show the whole thing here. The whole point of the power point is to compress the information into simpler terms so that anyone looking at this can understand. I have the entire document uploaded into one of the free servers. You'll find it after the end of this message. But for now, any feedback would be appreciated.
[The video cuts off there.]

I think it's all very helpful! I'll be sure to pass it along to anyone new. For the stated purpose it seems really complete? I've found that people usually ask about missing powers and being suddenly human, but that might just be because of who I talk to, and I'm not sure that sort of thing would fit in this guide, unless you wanted to add that? I mean, it has very little to do with wilderness survival, unless someone is really, truly uncertain what to do with a human body or their powers, whatever those might have been.
Perhaps a section on ways to earn money might be good, though, if only to put in the part about "work five days before you try to leave town or you're in trouble", although I guess that probably comes up when you actually get a job!
Otherwise, I don't really have any feedback besides "it looks great"!

Thanks. Perhaps on a later date I will add that in.
As for the being human part, there were a few who suggested it. I can mention the basic needs for humans but the other parts? I haven't thought of a comprehensible way to squeeze that information in. I think that's a discussion for another day.
