[Today's view of Ecruteak's Pokémon Center appears perfectly normal: the usual music is playing, the receptionist's desk is clean, and Cecil is smiling, with his hands clasped together and his right eyebrow twitching and- erm.]

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is a Public Service Announcement.

[A strange squelching noise can be heard from behind him, apparently moving. He ignores it.]

A Tentacruel answering to 'Lester' was found in the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center's women's bathroom this morning, unharmed and bearing a copy of '649 Ways to Bond With Your Tentacruel', along with two pairs of female undergarments. If you have any information about Lester's owner, please contact the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center promptly. Your cooperation would be greatly appreciated.

[A tentacle slowly slides up his left arm, finally resting on his shoulder. He ignores it.]

In addition, the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center would like to apologize for the disturbance, and assures all of its clients that such incidents will not take place again in the future. Thank you for your time.

[Cecil's smile looks particularly frozen as he turns the feed off.]

Overfiend?

Ahaha... Th-that's the name of my Tentacruel...

...It sounds as alarming as Lester, to be honest.

Y-Yeah... He can definitely be alarming at times! Especially when he gets all touchy feely...

...T-touchy feely? Are you certain you should keep him?

Ahaha... I've had him since he was a Tentacool! It would be kind of silly to consider getting rid of him now...

I suppose it would be, if you've had the time to get attached to him.

... if anything, he's the one who is attached to me.

...What kind of attached are we talking about?

Very attached.

Do you need help? Someone to rescue you?

--eh? No no, it's not as if he's always clinging to me or anything... That only happens right after I let him out if it's not a battle.

Do you let him out often? That's easy enough to avoid, but letting out everyone else would be unfair to him...

It's fine! He never proves to be too much a problem, because if he acts up too badly I usually have Sony out as well!

Is Sony a Grass-type or an Electric-type?

--oh, ah... He's an Electric Steel combo. A Magneton! He's been with me since my first week here, so he's got a lot of power to back him up.

That would be ideal to stop an overly amorous Tentacruel indeed.

... ... calling him amorous just makes it sound twenty times worse than it actually is...

Overly affectionate, then.

I'm not really sure if it qualifies as affection though...

...Interest, then?

He's interested in anyone, as long as he can get a tentacle on them.

...That must make friendships very awkward.

H-He know better than to grab certain people! Especially with what happened when he first evolved. Then again, he isn't afraid of any of them either...

...And what exactly happened when he first evolved?
