[Veronica is... in a tree again. She doesn't look very happy about it either. The Noibat curled up on her shoulder seems pretty content though.]

So, I'm in Violet City. It's not raining Pokémon anymore, but there seems to be swarms of them each day now.

[She turns the screen around, showing her Murkrow and Butterfree currently in the middle of a sky battle with a group of Noibat. Down below, her other Pokémon are causing quite a bit of ruckus. She turns the screen back to her.]

Does anyone want one of these? It's weird, leaving them fainted like this.

[soundmind]

Ah, what would you like for that one?

[hey she just met you and this is crazy, but you've got cutebats, so trade her maybe??]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Want?

[Uh.... She's still so new at this sort of thing.

....UHHHH...]

Ah, what do you have? I could just give it to you...

[soundmind]

Ummm...

[She did not prepare for this.]

I have...Ponyta eggs?

[A beat, she hits herself on the head.]

I'm sorry, that's stupid. I can go catch something for you right now, it wouldn't be fair if you just gave it to me.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

You don't have to do something like that. Could I just give it to you, as a gift?

[She's doing this right, right? This is how you do nice things for others, correct?]

[soundmind]

Ah--wow, um--

[THAT'S SO NICE, THOUGH??]

That's really nice of you! I want to find a way to pay you back regardless, though...

[throw_stone]

[...If only he was closer, he'd catch his own! But Ramza gives a shake of the head.]
I'd like to pick one up. But, these swarms... are these Pokemon being scared from their home, perhaps?

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Okay, I'll find one for you.

[....She considers that.]

We've been seeing Pokémon here that apparently have never been seen before. I wonder.... if they were ever here before at all.

[throw_stone]

Hm?
[Ramza ponders that, closing his eyes.]
They may be from different worlds? But they look like native Pokemon.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

They do. But....

[She looked away from the screen, likely watching the fight below. The Noibat on her shoulder made little noises of protest. Don't move so much, she was trying to sleep.]

I think they're just Pokémon we've never seen before. They act like Pokémon, after all.

[throw_stone]

This all began with them falling from the sky.
[...]
I've no knowledge of it - but do you know if this land may have had some sort of floating continent? No - we would have heard it fall and bring upon these creatures.
[This is when one of Ramzas' Pancham Pantunde crawls into view, as he ponders to himself.]
But why one a day? 'Tis the thing which bothers me the most

[suncrushed]

Oh, goodness - the dear things! I'll take one. What would you like for it?

[Because obviously the Eevee and Growlithe egg wasn't enough, right?]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Oh, hello, Juniper. You want one, too?

[She looks around at the many Noibat around her... then, her gaze returns to Juniper's when it occurs to her what Juniper said.]

Wait, what? Uh, you really don't... need to do that. I don't need more Pokémon eggs.

[Stop being so generous please.]

[suncrushed]

[She can't help it, Roniiii.]

Yes, I'd like one, but...are you sure? I'd feel terrible asking something of you without offering something in exchange...

[Juniper, you literally gave her like two Pokémon eggs free of charge. Calm down.]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Geeze...

[stoooop, she can't handle it.]

You've already given me two eggs. Now, I want to give you something.

...It's a gift.

[suncrushed]

...A gift?

[When was the last time she ever received a gift? Hmm.]

W-Well, if that's what you'd prefer, then...it's fine with me.

[scratchitti]

Huh, they're kinda cool looking. I got a bunch of those grass goats still if you want one?

[stitchedupbodyguard]

They do seem to be popular. [Especially considering how many people have asked for one already. Geeze, guys. They're just bat Pokémon.]

Grass goats? [...] Ah, you mean the goats that can get over ledges.

[scratchitti]

They can do that?

[Okay he might have to keep ONE then]

And yeah, they swarmed all over Goldenrod. They almost ate my headphones.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Apparently, they can. They're the first thing here I've seen that can do it.

[She's not jealous of shrub goats, don't be ridiculous.

....she's a little jealous of shrub goats]

...They tried to eat your headphones. [She has to repeat it, because that sounds a little ridiculous when said aloud.]

[scratchitti]

They're goats.

[Of COURSE they did]

[solas_ion]

Looks kinda cute.

[For...a given value of the word.]

You want one of those goat things? I caught five or so and I don't have reason to keep more than one.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

...They are, I guess.

[Said as the one residing on her shoulder decides to nuzzle her, making little noises all the while.]

Someone already gave me one, but I can just give you one, if that's okay.

[Unless you're one of those types that are really nice and wont take no for an answer and insists on an equal trade Juniper]

[solas_ion]

...hm? You don't really need to do that, you know.

[At least he's not adamant about it.]

[stitchedupbodyguard]

[It's a step up, yes.]

I don't need a Pokémon from everyone I give one to.

[...]

But... I guess if you want to...
