Antemortem. Mmm, let's see. A Burst Heart is a gem, of hexagonal shape and the size of a Pokéball, which, as such, can fit in someone's pocket. Like a Pokéball, it can store a Pokémon, with the only difference being that the Burst Heart
cannot release the Pokémon it contains unless the owner is defeated while Bursting with that Pokémon, and if that happens, the gem itself breaks and the Pokémon is considered as released. The Pokémon contained within a Burst Heart can easily be seen from the outside, just like those in Pokéballs in Pokémon Special/Pokémon Adventures. Like this:
It is known that Burst Hearts can be made artificially if an original one is possessed, but the shape of these is more like a rhombus, and the usual pain and risk of dying when Bursting tends to be higher on inexperienced Burst Warriors. Those look like this:
When Bursting with a Pokémon, the user of the Burst Heart gains the appearance traits, as well as attacks, abilities and weaknesses of the Pokémon inside. For instance, Bursting with a Raikou could make you very fast, almost not damaged by lighting yet weak against Ground attacks. There
is also a way to bond and keep training a Pokémon while it is inside a Burst Heart. It is known that one can "access" so to speak to a Burst heart. When this happens it's more like having your mind drift off to some other place rather than actually disappearing. The "inside" of the Burst Heart depends on the Pokémon it contains as well as which would be his habitat. It's like they have their own little world there, and when entering, you can keep bonding with them and even train them in some sort of way. This happening is triggered randomly on those who haven't trained to be Burst Warrior
or have an artificial Burst Heart. The more trained you are the more you will control when these visits take place. Here:
Zekrom being Zekrom, his surrounding on the Burst Heart pretty much need to be this gloomy, right?
NOW, the act of Bursting itself... You have the gem, okay? You need to place it on your chest -on a very, very fabulous way, mind you-. Then, an excruciating pain will hit you -like you're being hit thousands of times in a row in your chest-, it is known that people actually
die in failed attempts of Bursting... Some can barely withstand the pain out of pure luck while some train for years in order to fight ad eventually get used to the pain. If you're lucky enough to not die -or performed the act itself correctly-, a slight layer of light will take over you, the act itself is not that lousy unless you yell like there won't be a tomorrow. Afterwards, you swiftly earn traits from your Pokémon:
And once the act is done, you will almost look like that Pokémon in your Burst Heart, obviously keeping your head:
And if you fail... THIS will happen:
And that's it, I think, unless I'm missing something (and if I do then Songbird might explain it OR explain this in an even better way). The Pokémon contained in a Burst Heart will
occasionally be up to you to elect, while sometimes you'll stick with random ones. Or maybe those used by Team Gaia? Who knows!
EDIT: STOP USING SEXY AVATARS! >.<
@[supporter]Khawill[/supporter]. It should be a question that can be answered, I suppose :P Wait, why didn't I reply to this first? Kind of burying the ladder here...
