Jims seems like he's seen weirder, honestly.

[stitchedupbodyguard]

Jimmy? Yeah, I guess....

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Fine, it'll be ssssent out within the hour.

[enjoymyatelier]

Believe me, I understand the sentiment. It's taking all my restraint not to try and obtain practically all of these things, so I'm trying to keep it to things that catch my interest more than usual.

...and admittedly, that counts.

[enjoymyatelier]

I personally maintain that these aren't quite as bad as the trash bags, but they're certainly... something.

...Anyway, just a moment...

[Let him cut the feed to catch one.]

...these things are bizarrely popular, actually.

[enjoymyatelier]

That... would be a fantastic idea, actually. Not looking them up, obviously --- they're really completely wretched.

And I... would presume so, given that practically everything else here can be used in battle in some capacity, whether it be directly fighting or acting as support. Though, since they're completely new to any of us, I think that they're something of a gamble as to what role they're be in or if they're one of the notable exceptions.

[enjoymyatelier]

I think I'd be more sympathetic if any other Pokemon I encountered before acted like this.

As such... well, perhaps I'll leave this lot behind and see if there are any that aren't quite as volatile.

[JUST LET HIM TAKE A MOMENT TO CUT THE FEED, CATCH ONE, AND COME BACK]

Well, this one should hopefully be alright.

[unkinder]

[Nagi nods curtly.]

Have you learned anything of particular interest about this Pokemon?

[codeforhope]

[Chihiro can't help but smile a little at that, tilting his head to the side.]

..."Foofyku?"

[You don't just bring that up without having some story behind it.]

[enjoymyatelier]

Well, here's hoping... I will try to get you one that isn't terribly behaved, but that's not really much of a guarantee. It honestly could simply be incredibly crafty...

ooc

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

[Sure thing! Consider it sent!]

[video]

[enjoymyatelier]

Ah, I see. So... no real correlation between location and Pokemon, I suppose, unless there's something I'm missing.

Which, granted, I probably am.

[pipers_son]

Hopefully! Thanks for this, mate. If ya ever decide ta visit the Circus in Goldenrod, lemme know and I'll let ya in free a charge.

[unkinder]

I'll take one.

[If he has to trade he probably still has a few of those birds left over...in which case he'll give you a hundred for a single water frog.]

[ossifragant]

[So cool looking!]

I'll take one!

[evilfrenzy]

Hmm, well they have a very interesting method of intimidation at least.

[Look at all that jangling. So threatening. Part of Rideaux almost finds that kind of endearing, in a pathetic sort of way.

He takes a moment to make his final decision...eventually settling on, "fuck it let's get this sentient keyring."]

I'm in a gambling mood today. Very well, I'll take one of them off your hands.

[Rocket Video]

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

I have not, but if you dissscover anything useful, then you should share it with the rest of the team. Immediately!

[babel_hacker]

Maybe something like an insect's wings? Probably like a dragonfly's.

[Now Atsuro's joining in on the hypothetical flying frogs imagining.]

[babel_hacker]

I don't have either of them. The lucha bird sounds more fun to have, so I'll go with that.

[What could possibly go wrong?]

[diehardreaper]

Ah, blimey... fancy that, I'd gone and left that out. Sorry, mate.

[ Have a well-meaning smile though. ]

It's Ronald. Ronald Knox. And you'd be...?

[captainash]

Craftiness, I can deal with. Not quite as well as I'd deal with good behavior, but it's still a big step up from psychopathy.

[in_praetego]

Same here.

[ Glad to see he's not the only one who's been having brainfarts coming up with new names. ]

This trading system makes it easy for people to get the ones that show up from different towns. I guess everyone's just naturally curious about the new ones.

[in_praetego]

It's... something I'm not too keen trying to figure out again but I did promise someone I'd look into it as soon as I have the badge and the HM necessary.

[ A sigh though. ]

Good luck to us both, I guess.

[paladinlost]

...A Water-type that obtains the Bug-type instead of losing it would be pleasant to have. It'd be less common than Water anf Flying, too.

[in_praetego]

Everyone does. Either pokemon or people. Some just aren't lucky enough to find it.

[ And some are so... maybe he does empathize. Pardon the tiny homesick look though. ]
