[At least this transmission is on more of a positive note, depending on how one would look at it.

Alister's seated at his dining room table with a fresh cup of tea, out of the clinic whether it was of his own volition or not, and surprisingly looking a bit better than his last appearance. Sure, there's still a good deal of bandages adorning his face and he's still pretty haggard, but at least he's not dead.

And despite his adamance before, this was not intentional.

So the former-General takes a slow sip from his cup, clearing his throat politely when he finishes.]

I believe we're agreed to acknowledge that this week never happened.

[A little brash, considering its events. Though, is there a better 'i'm doing okay' than that, from someone like him?]

I've returned to the junkyard for now, and the security is disengaged.

[Wait Alister are you.

Inviting people in?

How hard were you hit, man?]

[needsmoregreen]

In a way, yeah!

But I wouldn't go so far to call them 'pets'...I just simply call them my friends no matter what!

[Voice]

[double_edged]

So you see each other as equals... are these beings intelligent enough to realize this?

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

Of course, they're able to read our emotions as well as we can!

Plus, they can understand what we say too! We treat them equals and they treat us the same! [She could go into the whole detail of what happened to her but...that's for another time]

[Voice]

[double_edged]

Of all the planets I've visited in my lifetime, I can't admit to seeing a creature similar to that level of intelligence. You said you had at least one of them here - care to show me?

[Voice]

[needsmoregreen]

Yeah, sure!

I have six of them so pick a number!

[Voice]

[double_edged]

Four is an even enough number.

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

All right so...

You can see Chandelure!

[With that, have a pokemon looking at the SFC soon after being blinking a bit. Huh, that was something she's not use to seeing] Say hello to my pokemon, Alister!

[Video]

[double_edged]

[He had expecting some kind of familiar, organic creature with the way she had described these - this one, however, he couldn't discern whether it was organic or robotic. The Lombax turns his head a little, mildly curious.]

Can it speak?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

Chal! [Her pokemon spoke up to prove her point]

Mhmm, they can! Although they can only speak what their names are! But that doesn't mean they can't understand what we are talking about! If you're with your pokemon for a long period of time, you can understand them too!

[Video]

[double_edged]

Do you know if there would be a way to... acquire these 'pokemon' within the city? Or are they simply from your home world?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

Hm...I'm not sure, I never asked anyone who might have gotten a pokemon here before.

The only other way I know is through breeding but...I don't think I can do that.

[Video]

[double_edged]

No, no, I don't think there's a need to be that extreme. Why don't we start off small?

You said people have gotten them here before - is there somewhere I can go?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

I don't see why not!

You can ask them and then maybe I can do something about it! Oh, maybe you can ask Cheren too if you want! He's from my world and has pokemon with him! If there's anything I can't answer, maybe he can!

[Video]

[double_edged]

Cheren? [Now, that's not a name he's too familiar with, but... eh, why not?] Do you know where he might be?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

Nope!

But you can try to call him from the SFC if you want!

[Video]

[double_edged]

Ah, yes, there's an idea. But is there anything else I should know about these creatures before jumping into handling one?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

[of course, this was before she met Wallace so...]

I can't tell you much since it depends on what type you want to get. However, be sure to have a lot of berries around, Pokemon love to eat those! Oh and poffins too!

[Video]

[double_edged]

The berries, I can understand. But what in the name of Orvus are poffins?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

Poffins are kind of like pastries!

You just roll it up into a ball, put berries inside, and you bake them! It's just that easy!

There's always pokemon food too but I'm not too sure if Vatheon has any of those...

[Video]

[double_edged]

--something tells me the Pokemon aren't the only one to eat those. They are strange creatures, indeed.

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

Mhmm, they are but that's what makes it so much fun to study them!

Hm...I could lend you one of my pokemon for a week and you can see how well it goes?

[Video]

[double_edged]

...and how would I even begin to take care of it?

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

Hm...I can let you borrow Stoutland for a week!

Usually she doesn't take a lot to take care of! She just needs to shower once every a day along with walking too!

[Video]

[double_edged]

I, ah... 'Stoutland'? [That sounded more like a domestic name, rather than the name of a creature as a whole. The Lombax does look intrigued, however, and he rubs at his chin.]

Is it similiar to the candle-creature? If so, giving it a bath may prove difficult.

[Video]

[needsmoregreen]

[She shakes her head]

No, it's like a dog! A really big dog!

So you might need to get a really big bathtub to wash her! But I usually use a hose to give her a bath.
