[In the foreground, one Cecil Harvey, who is holding a few TMs and staring at them thoughtfully. In the background, one Kayne the dragonite and one Mist the Swablu, apparently arguing. Mist seems to be winning.]

How do you choose which of your Pokémon receive a particular Technical Machine? Normally, I'd simply buy two copies, but those were won from Gym leaders. I doubt they have the means to give each trainer more than one.

[The argument becomes louder and louder with each passing moment. A terrified Ralts climbs on her trainer's shoulder and clings to his hair.]

...As you can see, the potential users are having a slight disagreement. If anyone has a suggestion, I'd be happy to hear it.

... Wait, huh? That makes her sound.. really evil.

[Oh. Must be from the middle age or something. Well, not commenting on it, rather, he's just going to bow as well.]

The pleasure is mine.

Ehhhhh...? It's not like they're Saiyans and gain more power with each near death experience...

[video]

[paladinlost]

She's not quite reached evil yet. That takes much more effort.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Have you been in Johto for a long time? It must have been at least a few weeks, if you've defeated Falkner.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Saiyans? I'm not familiar with that term.

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

...actually. I've been here for over four months.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That's quite the respectable time. It also means you missed most of fall's strange events; how lucky.

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've... heard about them.

[Well only that it was weird and glitchy.]

[video]

[paladinlost]

It's rather strange, in fact. The last few months have been overly quiet. Though I suppose this month's weather was rather chaotic and unnatural...

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

At least it wasn't as bad as suddenly waking up with no memories of the past few days.

[video]

[paladinlost]

True. That was rather alarming, especially for those you woke up in other cities.

[video]

[combat_butler]

--ah! ... I would be very surprised if you were! But, um... The point still got across, right?

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

No kidding.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Even if they do not gain levels, they still learn that some strategies do not work, and also how to gauge their opponents. That is also a way to become stronger.

[paladinlost]

Then again, such events were what finally convinced my friends to move on from Cherrygrove and Violet.

[video]

[combat_butler]

Do you really think so?

--er, I mean... Regarding the wild ones, that is... I've never really noticed them changing how they attack or anything...

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

...now that you think of it, a lot of people tends to get stuck in both places for... a long while.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Preparing for the battle against Falkner does take some time, especially if your Pokémon are disadvantaged. And Azalea and Goldenrod are much harder to reach.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Perhaps not as a species, but individual members might, though I doubt they'd attack you again.

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

...yeah, I still remember being defeated by him a few times.

[video]

[paladinlost]

I managed to beat him on my first try. ...Then again, I'd been in Johto for nearly three months.

[video]

[swordofimpulse.livejournal.com]

...well, that would certainly help in beating him.

Seems like a dilemma. [How very astute of you, Kain.]

Without more information, my biased opinion would choose your dragon.

I didn't know being evil took effort. Could I be evil too, if I tried?
