19th moon [video/action]

[The view of route 31 is nice enough. The sun is peeking between the clouds and shining upon the snow, which looks pure and untouched... Except for a small section where a Dratini is attacking every wild Pokémon he sees while a Feebas cheers him on. Luckily, their trainer is feeling too nostalgic to scold them.]

The last Pokémon I caught for myself was Esuna, nearly a month before I first reached this city. It happened not too far from the cave, in fact... But since then, my team has grown through eggs and gifts exclusively. Is it the same for anyone else?

[The camera is still pointing at route 31, but it turns a little toward the south, toward the city that lies beyond route 30.]

I'll leave for Cherrgrove tonight. I'll reach it soon, I promise.

[And the camera turns back to the training Dratini, until the feed times out.]

She's your starter? She must be loads smarter than I am--I haven't even worked out the Gear myself.

She picks up human concepts quite quickly. The first few weeks, she would take care of our weekly shopping while I worked. But even she cannot help me do more than video posts. Those tiny letters are not very adapted to Pokémon paws.

Wow. [Have an impressed look, Rosie] You've been really helpful, haven't you? That's great!

[Rosie puffs up proudly, while Cecil laughs softly.]

She has her downsides as well. She has a strong competitive streak, she's impulsively romantic...

[But Merlin will never find out Rosie's other faults, as she pinches her trainer to make him shut up.]

Being romantic isn't a bad thing. [He laughs] I don't think she appreciates you listing her bad qualities for me.

The key word here is impulsively. She once ran off with my wallet to buy her sweetheart a Christmas present. And she has no room to be upset, considering she loves talking about Avenger's faults.

She did? That's really sweet of her--erm. Not that stealing your wallet was a good thing, I mean.

It was sweet. And I knew she'd not try to buy the whole store, so I did not mind that much.

Is her sweetheart another trainer's pokemon or one of yours?

Another trainer's. Biz the Aipom, from Kaito's team.

...I bet Kaito was surprised. His pokemon always seem to be getting into mischief.

They do, indeed. The two of us once spent hours dealing with Biz's collection of stolen wallets. But I think Rosie likes his wild side.

[That last bit is too much for Merlin--he bursts out laughing] Really, you think so?

She certainly likes encouraging him when he plays pranks. And she'll always take his side during an argument.

That's...got to be a sight to see. None of mine have sweethearts, but now I admit I'm curious.

It's quite sweet, once you get used to relationships between different species. I know someone whose spider and ghost are adorably close.

A spider and a ghost. [Blink] Yeah, that would need some getting used to.

Their trainer was surprised at first, but I think he warmed up to the idea. Of course, their love seemed rather innocent. I still cannot understand how certain combinations can result in eggs.

Neither can I. Actually, the erm...egg bit still gets me sometimes. Especially with pokemon like my growlithe.

I admit, seeing my own Growlithe come out of the egg was a surprise, even with a warning. But my other two eggs were a fish and a dragon, which sounds somewhat more normal, at least.

That does. What type of dragon pokemon do you have?

[Cecil merely points the feed at the training Dratini, who is squeezing a poor innocent Bellsprout to unconsciousness.]

Dearest Kayne hatched less than a week ago, but he's already become a little terror. I could almost cry.
