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.

I have a Gallade. It's the only Fighting-type I've ever trained, but it's been a reliable part of my team. It's also part Psychic, and can learn moves of multiple types, so it's pretty versatile.

I'm afraid I can't answer the rest of your questions, though.

[Ooh! Stuff he can actually answer!]

Poliwrath's a good Fighting type, speaking from experience as a trainer of one. And since you're wondering about monkeys, there's actually a Fighting type that's a monkey. It's called Mankey, and it evolves into Primeape.

Aaand have you seen these guys around?

[Larry shows his Simisage to the camera. Simisage flashes a thumbs up.]

I think there's a whole set of 'em, but I've only got one.

I recommend a Lucario, Cecil-san! I might not have got mine with intent, but Azure has grown from a timid and shy little pup to a fierce and effective brawler! Not to mention it's really cool how she can shoot out balls of energy.

As for beauty... The most beautiful Pokemon I know is definitely Gardevoir. They just look... well, graceful and elegant.

... and regarding names... Mmm... I've only had that happen once, so mileage may vary... Yet she was somewhere between upset and embarrassed when she found out.

Can't say I know much about fighting types, and, well, beauty kind of depends on the person...

As for naming Pokémon after friends, it probably also depends on the person, I guess. I mean, I didn't mind much when Ferris named one after me... though it's been kind of awkward taking care of him ever since she left.

There's an Eevee named after me, apparently. [Ain't that awkward.]

I've no knowledge of fighting types, but the most beautiful Pokémon I've seen is an Altaria.

[ So many questions. Well, since she's stuck in a hospital for the day, she may as well go over his roster and answer each question. ]

Fighting-type Pokemon?
I know the Breeding Centre has a few, but I have noticed strength within my Lucario.
Although I wonder how much of that is attributed to the name I have given him above all else.

Beautiful Pokemon, on the other hand, are something I can speak with experience for.
Many of the ones that have come into my possession one way or the other are magnificent beasts.
Milotic with colours unlike that of any beast in the sea, is renowned for it's beauty.
Flareon with a mane proudly displayed, has fur that cannot be rivaled with in this place.
There are no words to describe the beautiful Togetic that has come into my possession either, but with unique colours, every trainer I see comments on her remarkable image.

As for the names, why would it be?
Personally I kept myself from doing it for many months when I first arrived in Johto.
When I realized that no one I knew would come to this place, I chose instead to begin naming them after my comrades.

Well, I'll tell you something~! Fighting type pokemon are definitely worth looking into. One that stands out is Lucario! He's steel and fighting and he's a pretty hard worker! [ Rangiku pans the feed to Lucario, who is silently meditating in the corner. ]

As for beautiful pokemon, because I don't know much about monkey species, Vulpix, Togepi and her evolutions, Arcanine and Eevee definitely fit the bill~! [ She briefly moves the feed around to show the hot mess that is the rest of her household! Eevee stamps on the counter. Arcanine rushes through the home with Vulpix right on top of it, knocking over item after item after item. Togekiss is at peace, and is sleeping on the couch until Arcanine whisks right by it. Rangiku, slightly bashful, turns the feed back onto her. ]

I'm not sure~! I know when Kuchiki-taichou learned that I named a pokemon after his sister, he wasn't pleased. At all. In fact, he sort of gave that face that he makes when something really upsets him but there's nothing he can do about it~! [ #LieutenantProblems. ]
