...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.]

Enough to buy a hearty goodbye dinner for my whole team, at the very least. They might want to find good families for their children, but it can still be a difficult separation.

Have they had problems with it before?

It's not so bad when I find worthy trainer on my own, but the few times I had to send the remaining eggs to the Breeding Center... Well, let's say there were a few teams from the more caring members of the team.

[Man, he feels sort of bad for the parents, now...]

...Do you think you'll have any left over this time?

[paladinlost]

Considering the number of eggs? Surely. Caterpies and Magikarps are not particularly popular purchases.

[Uuuuuugh...]

Well... Y'know, if no one buys a few... I dunno, I guess I could take some other ones?

Are you certain? It would be very helpful, but taking care of many young ones at once can be tiring.

Nah, it's fine. I'm used to it- my weapon partners back home are both really young, so I've been taking care of kids for a while now. I think I could only take, like, four more right now 'tho.

...You can if you wish, but I must warn you that some might have... inherited their parents' personalities. Which would make raising them more of a challenge.

[fourwayconnection]

...What's that mean?

video;

[paladinlost]

There is always the possibility that a child will inherit more than moves from its parents. With the Happiny it'll be no issue, but with a Swablu or a Deino, especially when they are fathered by my Dragonite, well...

[fourwayconnection]

And what's the Dragonite like?

video;

[paladinlost]

...He's combative to the point of attacking opponents less than a tenth of his level, and toying with them. I've not quite been able to train that out of him.

[fourwayconnection]

...Dude, what the hell.

video;

[paladinlost]

He's far from my greatest parenting success, I'll admit.

video;

[fourwayconnection]

Well, if I get any of his freakin' kids, I'll make sure they don't go off the rails.

video;

[paladinlost]

A most difficult challenge, yet an extremely rewarding one.

video;

[fourwayconnection]

I guess we'll see. Anyway, let me know which ones don't sell whenever you're done with this!

video;

[paladinlost]

I should have that information soon. Sales tend to be over quickly, barring exceptions such as the breeders' convention.

video;

[fourwayconnection]

Okay, sounds awesome!

[paladinlost]

And if you happen to be lucky, there'll even be some variety left.
