second shot ❀ video/action ❀ viridian city
Good morning! I have a couple questions, and this seems the best place to ask. Though first, I should probably announce- The last of the eggs from the Breeders' Convention hatched.
[And that should be easy to see. A little Swablu is curled up on her shoulder, trying to huddle under one of Mami's ponytails, while behind the girl on the grass is a dozing Petilil, and a tiny Eevee batting her paw playfully in the water. The group's relaxing at the edge of a waterfront, and everytime the Eevee starts a ripple, a baby Feebas surfaces to jump the raised line.]
Trista there was my last to hatch. And we're lucky it was here, since Viridian has this pond for her to swim in.
But I was wondering if anyone would know- Is there a point when it's too soon to evolve a Pokemon? I know Trista and Fulvia - my Eevee, that is - learn varying moves very early on, based on if I evolve them now or not. But I don't want to chance harming them by rushing it.
Also, there's another thing... [Mami glances back at the little ones, only to frown when she spots a tiny Litwick coming up behind Fulvia. The little thing looks ready to pounce and surprise them... and instead uses Toxic, bubbling the attack with a loud noise than sends Fulvia bolting for Mami's lap. But Trista? She splashes around in the uncontaminated part of the water, and shoots a Toxic right back at the dancing Litwick- who just uses Double Team to make it miss.
Mami, meanwhile, is trying to give them a calm cut-it-out talk... Which is ignored, so she sighs and speaks to the feed again.] I'm discovering the downside of powerful moves in young hands- They're getting a bit better about using them, but in the meantime there's a lot of trouble risked. Is there any good way to- [Suddenly, she and the whole group gets a face full of water when Trista looses her temper and uses Surf. Cue one near-fainted Litwick bowled over, a growling pair of Eevee and Swablu, and highly confused Petilil, and one drenched trainer.
Also one jumpy Feebas, giving sheepish, worried noises as Mami's blinks fleck the screen with water... A few seconds before it goes out. Anyone's guess if it's from water damage or not.
Either way, if you're running around Viridian you might spot Mami, walking back to the center soaking wet and a whining baby swablu on her shoulder.]

action
[And of course, she hopes Fulvia will get along with Madoka's Eevee, but it was a little soon to say, with the little Jolteon - who she let out of her ball, along with her Petilil, before making a B-line for a towel.]
And even if the new one isn't keen on being a fire-type, it might not mind! [It could be ambivalent on the idea, and follow Madoka's thoughts, or just want to please the girl...
But, Mami pauses in the middle of letting her wet hair loose to dry, to look to Madoka and consider her question.]
...I'm still not sure. I've spoken to a few trainers about it, though, and it sounds like it doesn't harm or frighten the Pokémon. Some may not like it- But that might just be because, they're more active and restless than others.
[She herself hadn't needed to check, with only five of her own, and no plans to rush for more.]
action
[Which is kind of weird, maybe, considering how fast she can attack all the things in the wild. Well, they could hurt her trainer and everyone from their travel party, so someone must keep the wild ones in line.]
...So I should just hope that it doesn't want to be any other type later...? [Madoka is trying to get this pokemon logic.
Madoka squishes her own knees with her hands a bit. Sigh.]
But it still kind of feels like abandoning friends... Riku-san's guide said there's a way to keep them all out, but that's living in a city and all but six would go back to the system if you start traveling. I guess it would depend on their own opinion about it too, they seem to be intelligent enough to possibly understand even something as complicated as that PC thing.
action
I've taught Sara to fight, and I'm training her so that she'll be safe if she has to fight in the future, or if she's the only type who could defend us.
[Moves like Sleep Powder were very helpful, after all, and she gives the quietly "til"ing grass-type a smile as she sets some tea to boil. It'd help warm her up, and perhaps smooth the conversation.]
But, Sara doesn't like to fight very much, so once I have more Pokémon, I won't have to rely on her as much. And if I'm going into a battle where I'll need a full team, having the PC option is good. I can leave her behind and use Pokémon who like battles.
If we keep our whole team with us, at all times, they'll have to face everything we do.
