...After many hours of pondering, I have come to the conclusion that my Pokémon wish to express their displeasure at being excluded from the New Year's festivities.

[He likely got that impression from the large pile of eggs that be seen behind him. The structure looks horrifyingly unstable, and the young shiny Vulpix trying to use it as her playground does not help.]

But they've generously done so in a manner that benefits you all. The eggs cost P1000 each, barring the Caterpies and Magikarps which are half that price. All are likely to hatch knowing at least one or two additional attacks, as Gogo's efforts to court Firaga have left it too busy to participate. I offer swift deliveries, and I can add a handmade egg pillow to any order if you request it. Please do not hesitate to buy as many eggs as you can hold.

[No, seriously, don't hesitate at all.]

[chickshades]

That's... wow.

[ so many eggs ]

[paladinlost]

Very much so, and it's far from the first time.

[So much suffering in his voice.]

[After taking a moment to check some of these against his Pokedex, Gundam makes his decision.]

I desire the dancing razor sharp whirlwind of vengeance! But have no fear, I am more than willing to pay the required toll. This time.

[...okay, it probably wasn't very clear, but he wants the Mienfoo.]

[Video]

[paladinlost]

...The dancing razor sharp whirl- Ah, my apologies. Those are Chikorita and Petilil eggs, not Scythers. Unless you meant the Honedges?

[But surely if he meant the Honedges, he'd have mentioned the word 'blade' or 'sword' in there somewhere, right?

Some clarification might be needed.]

[Video]

[infinityunlimitedflame]

While those are indeed desirable acquisitions, they are not the creatures of which I speak. The egg I wish to obtain is a xanthous beast with crimson markings.

[Yellow and red, Gundam. Just say the damn colors in a language everyone can understand.]

[Video]

[paladinlost]

Ah, a Mienfoo, then.

[Good thing he went with colors, because Cecil's next guess was Ralts.]

An excellent choice. The parents have good compatibility, which often leads to many moves upon hatching.

[video]

[esthetically]

[Rei just stares a little. He honestly feels a little bad, seeing how he's got so many...]

Ah... if you'd like, I can take one off your hands. You certainly ended up quite the assortment.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That would be extremely kind of you. My Pokémon have always enjoyed synchronizing their breeding periods, even though they know that it makes finding homes for all the eggs more difficult.

[video]

[esthetically]

It sounds almost as though they're doing this just to give you a hard time.

[That's... really unfortunate for you.] Perhaps they want you to raise an army.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Neither of those possibilities would surprise me. They usually are very obedient, but their love for both children and new siblings tends to make them forget their manners. That, and their disappointment from missing the party.

[While her trainer is still uninterested in dealing with anything at the moment, Victoria the Gothitelle has been keeping herself busy by monitoring the network, to see if any useful things pop up. Cecil's Big Pile of Eggs certainly manages to catch her eye! Maybe there's something nice in there that will cheer her trainer up?

It's then that her eye catches the bouquets of flowers that Meridiana left for her trainer, presented nicely on her desk...that's an idea...]

Hello. Do you happen to have any Grass pokemon available? Especially ones that have flowers on them.

[Apologies for the text, Cecil, but she can't quite communicate with you any other way.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

[It's alright, he only uses video out of habit at this point.]

Of course. I have Chikoritas, Petilils, and one Deerling. I imagine the Petilil would best suit your needs?

[video]

[divinitea]

Petitil...that evolves to Lilligant, does it not?

[Lilligant would likely be an excellent choice...Victoria can't think of a more flowery Pokemon.]

You have some left?

[video]

[solas_ion]

...Holy hell.

[how eloquent.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

Yes.

[That is the most accurate description of this whole situation.]

I don't suppose you are in need of new, carefully bred companions? I guarantee they'll hold their own in battle.

[video]

[solas_ion]

Sure, I can afford to take a couple. You got anythin' particularly promisin', you think?

[fourwayconnection]

[Guess what kid is making shiny eyes at you, Cecil. Guess.]

[paladinlost]

[In response, Cecil simply beams and holds up his one Happiny egg.]

I hope you like Flamethrowers. Noelle has very specific tastes in partners.

Re: video;

[fourwayconnection]

[He gives a whoop, hands thrusting into the air.]

Awesome! Thanks a lot! I haven't stopped thinking about it since we met!

[Upon his eventual (if convoluted) arrival to a town with an actual inn he can stay at and not die a lot in the snow, Kaneki has been trying to distract himself in just about every way possible. Naturally he's realized after several days here that this is in fact not a dream, so... Apparently that was by reading the trainer's manual to the point where he could probably recite any given page if asked. So now he's exhausted that, he's checked the Network...

But unfortunately he didn't arrive as a breeder with a manual on those mechanics to study so this is.

...oh god what's happened here.]

Did...your Pokemon lay all of those eggs?

[He sees that fox back there...foxes don't lay eggs...]

[video]

[paladinlost]

Yes, they did. All the girls except for Firaga participated, along with most of the boys. Some of those eggs are swords.

[The very thought pains him, to Firaga the Vulpix's great amusement.]

[video]

[samsa]

...you're kidding.

[Does this look like a man who is kidding, Kaneki?]

[ex_cashcow493]

It was only a matter of time. [ With a sympathetic look in her eyes. ]

Seeing as I have lost an entire team, I suppose I could help out.

video;

[paladinlost]

Indeed it was.

[It's been over a year, this was long overdue.]

Let me guess. You'll happily offer a loving home to an innocent baby Honedge?

video;

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Nodding. ] If I may, could I ask for two?

A companion of mine from home has recently arrived and like me, he has an affinity for swords. I think having a Pokemon like that will help him through his journeys.

[ Looking over the pile, she notices something else. ]

Is that a Swablu egg?
