12th Light [Video]

[The video starts with a very pleased Ushio's face, before panning around to show Mahogany Town. She's rather excited, having just explored the majority of the mountain behind her. It was something new, something she'd never gotten to see before.]

That was amazing. I know some people don't like caves all that much, but it was a great new experience for me. Even if I didn't find any new pokémon to travel with me.

I don't mind, though. I'm sure there will be plenty of others that will join me in the future.

[Trying to wave down and talk to wild pokémon or bribe them with snacks apparently isn't working so well. But she continues to try anyway. At least there's the breeding center she can always adopt from.]

Now that I'm in Mahogany Town, are there any places besides the gym I should visit?

That must be pretty neat.

Mei speaks into my mind from time to time. I just wish it was easier to communicate with them, though.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Sometimes it's not a language barrier so much as it's a brick wall... and your Mei is only one of the group.

[alonelyworld]

Yeah. Do you have psychic types that talk to you too?

Re: video;

[usedacrobatics]

I have a Woobat, Carmilla. But she's never really been all that chatty.

[...she's also one of those happiness evolutions that hasn't happened yet, oops.]

You don't-- you don't think there's something wrong with that, do you?

I don't know. Mei didn't start talking to me until she'd evolved.

Re: video;

[usedacrobatics]

What's the condition for her evolution?

I can probably look it up if you tell me what kind of Pokemon she is... has she been with you long?

By leveling up.

Mei's a Gardevoir. She's shiny too. I found her egg in my backpack during Christmas.

Re: video;

[usedacrobatics]

That's pretty merry. Almost sounds like you're bragging.

[Not quite, but...]

[alonelyworld]

Oh, no. I didn't mean to. I think everyone here got an egg on Christmas.

Re: video;

[staystraught]

Hope that's a trend. I haven't seen a Christmas here.

[alonelyworld]

I hope so too. I enjoy raising them from eggs. You don't have to wait too much longer, right? Christmas is only a few months away.

Re: video;

[usedacrobatics]

Yeah. Twenty-four days after my birthday. Maybe I'll get an egg then, too. I haven't bought any recently.

video;

[alonelyworld]

I'm always looking at eggs other people offer up for adoption. It's better to raise them from the start, isn't it?

video;

[staystraught]

I think so. Easier to train and I think you get more used to each other that way. I've bought more eggs than actually made captures.

video;

[alonelyworld]

Mm. It helps to form bonds between us and them. I have too. Most of my pokémon are from breeders or the breeding center.

[staystraught]

It's a good system... when you can afford it.

I have a few gifts from friends, too. Those are special.

video;

[alonelyworld]

More people should strive for it.

That must be nice. Any gift is special.
