"We are pleased to announce that after a long and pleasant courtship, we are expecting our first hatchlings. We are also pleased to share that many of our siblings also expect new family members."

[It comes out a little stilted, quite possibly because Cecil is reading this from cue cards written in bright yellow crayon while tying ribbons around his Banette's ears. Let it not be said that the man cannot multitask.]

"However, to our great sorrow we have no room in the house to keep them all. Thus, we wish to give them to humans who will love and cherish them, and help them reach their full potential."

[He moves on to the next cue card, while the Banette ineffectively tries to wriggle away.]

"We seek only the best, most loving trainers for our young. Therefore, we request that every selected individual offer one of their own children in exchange, to serve as coll-" Wait, what? Mortblossom! Mindflayer!

[That gets Cecil standing and striding away towards the culprit, revealing the eggs hidden behind his back. This also leads to Avenger's freedom, and he promptly uses it to turn the Gear off.]

[[A few eggs are still available here!]]

[Have a laughing Tifa]

Sounds like fun.

It appears we have two very different definitions of fun.

[The Cradily slung over his shoulders and trying to get down seems to agree.]

But it's good that they're so lively, don't you think?

[Grin grin grin]

...It is, considering the number of years they spent as inanimate fossils.

Fossils? Really?

Really. There was an incident during a seance a few onths ago, and they were everywhere for a few days. There were trenches in my garden by the time they were done.

Wow, sounds like I missed out. But knowing this place, I probably missed out on a lot of crazy fun stuff! [She laughs]

Congrats to the new parents, by the way.

That you did. Between the train to Kanto, the ghost possessions, the prom, the almost end of the world...

[The shoulder Cradily makes a little noise.]

That was a thank you. I think.

Woah. Wait...what's Kanto? [Because everything else sounds like pretty standard crazy pokéworld stuff.]

It's the region east of Johto. You can reach it by boat from New Bark Town or by train from Goldenrod, and try to earn its eight badges. A few of us have chosen to live here.

Oh wow! I wonder if Rude'll let me visit...

When did that happen, anyways?

Almost two years ago. There was some trouble during the train's maiden voyage, but ever sice then it been just as peaceful or lively as Johto.

See! That's the thing! Everything started happening after I left. How's that fair?

It would have been boring if you'd come back to a world that had not changed. You'll have plenty to discover, at least.

That's true! It'll be fun getting to know the area again, especially with it's expansion!

And its new Pokémon, too. I'd swear some species are much more widespread than they used to be.

New pokémon! Really? How exciting! I can't wait to meet them all.

Try not to catch everything you see, or else you'll run out of space within a week.

Oh that's right. Yeah, I'll have to make sure I don't do that!

Though it's not too much of a risk. I've no doubt you'll be happy to know that we can now train over seventy Pokémon at a time.

Seventy! Wow, that's a lot more! [She's almost giddy]

I can't wait to see the new additions.

You won't be disappointed. I've caught a few like Hydreigon, Volcarona and Beheeyem, and have fight well when needed.

[The Hydreigon is also a bit bitchy and the Beheeyem extremely stupid, but details.]

Well, it certainly seems you've been keeping busy. That's good. [She also happy to see that he seems as cheerful and polite as when she left.]

There were two regions' worth badges to earn and sights to see. I could hardly stay still and do nothing with my days.

[Even if he's mostly sedentary now.]

So have you managed to collect all the badges? If the answer is yes, then I suppose those rumors that if you get them all you can go home aren't true.
