I've recently been thinking of acquiring another Fighting-type or two. Are any species particularly worth looking into?

[Cecil probably didn't pay much attention when centering the camera, because his bandaged hands sewing a shirt back together are taking up most of the screen.]

I'd also like to hear about monkey species. Or beautiful Pokémon. I've no intention of catching them immediately, so their natural habitat matters little at the moment.

[His hands still for a few seconds.]

Do people enjoy learning that their friends named Pokémon after them? It's... perhaps too late for me to ask that question, but I'd rather not upset anyone.

Yeah, Poliwags aren't too hard to find.

[Larry taps his chin.]

Okay, so this guy here is Simisage. He evolved from Pansage. There's at least two more of the "sages" but in different types, if you get what I mean. There's a Water one and a Fire one.

Grass, Water and Fire... That seems to be a rather common combination here, for some reason.

[video] totally meant pans instead of sages there, whoops.

[failures]

Yup. You've got the starters and Eevee with 'em as evolutions. They're pretty much the staple types.

[video] Haha, I kinda figured.

[paladinlost]

Why those three? Why not Fire, Electric and Ice, or any other possibility?

[video]

[failures]

Your guess is as good as mine. That's just how it's always been.

[video]

[paladinlost]

I wonder what else could follow that pattern...

[video]

[failures]

I dunno...the main ones I know of are the ones I just mentioned. The only other trio that comes to mind is the Legendary Birds but they actually do have different types.

[video]

[paladinlost]

There were also those three beasts that appeared when the weather went mad. Perhaps both sets are linked somehow?

[video]

[failures]

Oh yeah, good point! They do have the same types as the birds, now that I think about it... I wouldn't say it's a stretch, that's for sure.

[video]

[paladinlost]

I wonder if this means magical objects corresponding to those elements are hidden somewhere in this world? If so many legendary creatures are associated with them...

[video]

[failures]

Now that's an adventure waiting to happen. What do you think they would do though? The items, I mean.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Keep the world in balance, no doubt. That's always the case.

[video]

[failures]

Makes sense.

[Larry looks thoughtful about this.]

If they are around, I'm surprised Team Rocket hasn't gone after them.

[video]

[paladinlost]

They've not done as far as we know, at least. They could have tried before any of us arrived and been stopped by the locals.
