[ When the feed clicks on, there are water droplets all across the screen, enough to distort the image of a little boy in a too-big jacket. He's shivering, free hand buried in the coat for warmth, a Pidgeotto perched on the arm that holds the Pokegear. There's snow in its ruffled feathers, and in its trainer's hair.

He's trying very hard not to look cold and miserable, but can't quite manage his usual volume. ]


Um! Crazy storm finally went away, so us Kindred Spirits are on the road again! Me and Doc are headed to Violet for badges, and look! Brown evolved!

[ The Pidgeotto fluffs itself up further, looking more like a puffball than a seasoned fighter, and gives the camera a grumpy bird stare. It is 11ºF man this is not okay. Shooter, of course, doesn't notice. ]

And he's really really cool and all, but… I kind of want Purple to stay like he is. I think he's gonna evolve soon, too, and what if he doesn't want to be a Raticate? Can I fix it?

... and is it getting warm again soon?

[He's also miserable in this terrible weather, but he's just as determined to get to Violet City. Alois walks up beside him and places his hand on his shoulder.]

Seems we're headed in the same direction. [His pokémon are warm in their pokéballs.]

[ Shooter, being ten years old and a bit of a derp, doesn't really pay attention to the figure out of the corner of his eye until there's a hand on his shoulder. He jumps, upsetting his bird and nearly dropping his Pokegear in the process -- the Pidgeotto squawks and repositions itself to the kid's shoulder, then directs its grumpy bird stare at Alois. Shooter just blinks. ]

Oh, yeah! Are you going to Violet for a badge, too?

...In the games, you could press the B button -- but I dunno if that works here. I haven't seen a B button around here, in any case.

B button? I think I remember that... I never really wanted my Pokemon to stay how they were, in the games.

But I'll look for a B button anyway. Thanks, mister!

I never want them to not evolve either -- even here! But it's okay.

Yeah... but Purple's special. He's my starter! He can't be the best Rattata in the world if he's not a Rattata anymore.

[ CAN'T LET YOUNGSTER JOEY BEAT HIM THERE. ]

...That sounds like a cool challenge, you know. It'll be the best -- I know it!
[Scott is only acting this interested because if it stays as a Ratatta, he can easily defeat it.]

[ So cruel, Scott. ]

I bet I'll be the very first person to beat the Elite Four with a super strong Rattata!

[ Actually, I managed that once; Rattata, Pidgey, and my secret weapon, Slowpoke. Fun times. ]

Don't worry, I've got other Pokemon, too! I've got a Pidgeotto and, um, a Buneary. His name is Tan.

[ Someone needs a non-Normal type. ]

It's, like, a rabbit Pokemon! And he's really really cool! They weren't even in the video games.

--That sounds totally awesome! What kinda moves does it use?

[No, Scott. You're NOT getting a Slutbunny.]

Normal-type moves, like Purple! Like, um, Pound.

Well... his name is Purple, and Raticate aren't purple! It wouldn't make sense! And he's my very very first Pokemon so I guess I'm kinda used to him like this.

[ Still video! But give him a minute, Vriska, he'll wind up using text back at you sooner or later. ]

[ You're breaking his ten-year-old heart here, man. ]

But...! He can't be the best Rattata ever if he's not a Rattata! And I just got a new Pokemon egg, and it's going to be something awesome when it hatches, so it balances out, kinda!

[ His relief is easy to hear. ]

Yeah! I know exactly what I'm going to do, don't worry about it! We'll still totally be champions together.

I can TOTALLY do it! And you can help! I mean, if all the troll-aliens are like you, everyone will HAVE to let you guys be champs!

[ Oh that came out sappier than expected BUT HEY. ]

Being awesome trainers and all, I mean!

Oh... well, how many are there? They might still be a little bit cool just for being aliens!

Sometimes they get less cute when they evolve. Leafy isn't evolving and I'm kind glad in a way, but I hope that means he won't get stronger. Hmm...

Oh hey! Did your egg hatch yet!?

What kind is Leafy?

Not yet, but I think it's gonna hatch soon! It makes weird noises sometimes, and I think I saw it move! I hope the snow's not hurting it...
