[Johto, Kanto, today a sad Butterfree is now staring at you from somewhere inside Goldenrod's Pokémon Center. Enjoy.]

This is Esuna, my Butterfree. She's a Bug- and Flying-type, and she cannot use the Hidden Machine Fly.

[The sad Butterfree is replaced with the back of a Volcarona, who is currently busy looking out the window.]

This is Ceo, my Volcarona. He's a Bug- and Fire-type, and unlike Esuna he has successfully learned Fly. In fact, he can even bear for my weight for a few moments.

[Only a few, but that's still pretty impressive for a bug.]

...Sometimes I wonder who created those TMs and HMs, and what was their logic when choosing Pokémon compatibilities. You'd think the Flying-type would be more likely to get that particular attack, even if they both have wings.

[Except not, because that would be logical and sensible.]

...That's a good question. The people who meet them have not yet learned which questions should be asked, so I doubt it.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

In that case...if we meet them again, we should prepare some questions for them.

[Video]

[paladinlost]

Certainly. Goodness knows we have many, and they all are in need of answers.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Oh, right. They're professors, so they're probably very busy with their research. If we manage to get to talk to them, we probably should make our questions count.

[Video]

[paladinlost]

Only we find a way to contact them on their days off. They must have a few, every so often.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

They should have a public contact number. While it's possible their aides would answer us, we can just ask them for the professors' days off.

[Video]

[paladinlost]

...And how would one obtain that public number?

[Seriously, how does he technology.]

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

There should be a phone book...

[Um. He never try looking them up before in a phone book. The PokeGear's contact list is usually good enough for him.

And the professors' numbers aren't there, he believes.]

[Video]

[paladinlost]

A phone book? Those can't possibly stay up to date very long, with all the comings and goings.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Or a directory. I know with us, it's pretty much impossible to keep it up to date with our numbers. But what about this world's natives?

[Video]

[paladinlost]

Are they even on the same network as we are? The local trainers might be, but everyone else...

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Probably not, if they need to use a network for exchanging information about their research. [Pokemon focused, he suspected. It's not like this world have other things to focus on.] So while they could have a private network, it'd be nice to have an easily accessible way to contact them...a letter?

[...Snail mail? Without a number, it'd be hard to send a text.]

[Video]

[paladinlost]

...With a strong Pokémon taking care of the delivery, to ensure that they'll answer promptly.
