Seventh Transmutation | [video] Gotta breed them all! (Backdated to 3/13)

[armoredsoul]

[Al isn't in view when he turns the Gear on this time, instead turning the camera at several piles of eggs on his bed, neatly separated by species.]

So I decided to give some breeding a shot again, and I'm putting the results up for sale! If you've only shown up recently, I'll be happy to hand over an egg for free; I know how hard it can be starting out here!

[He turns the camera around to himself, and a curious 'Vee?' can be heard off-screen.]

I'll attach a list with the prices and everything, so let me know if you're interested!

Hey, I've got that egg I promised you! Where are you at right now?



((The list is here! There's still a Ralts and Bulbasaur left to be claimed to good homes!))

Pokemon lay eggs...? I mean, it's expected of the birds but...

[armoredsoul]

Yup, eggs for everything. It's...really weird.

[the_pilgrim]

Then, how do you know which is which?

[armoredsoul]

The patterns on the eggs are different depending on the species of the baby inside. They're distinctive enough, but I still compare against a list I have from a book to be safe.

[Normally Celes would just ignore any of the egg posts that spring up on the network, but today she happens to be bored, and this one features a Pokemon she's been interested in for a while.]

Those Ralts are rather impressive.

[To put it mildly. Perhaps she could pretend to be new...]

[video]

[armoredsoul]

Hehe, yeah, they are! Their parents passed on a lot of good stuff. You interested in one?

[video]

[divinitea]

[...]

...yes, actually. Are the parents powerful?

[video]

[armoredsoul]

I'd say so! I'm still training them, but they're progressing really well.

[Gundam here doesn't actually need anything new, in fact he has too many Pokemon as it is right now, but he's not going to turn down the chance to speak with a fellow breeder.]

A generous offer for those who have recently arrived in this world, but see that it does not become your own undoing!

[In other words, be careful who you're giving these eggs out to, Al.]

[Video]

[armoredsoul]

[What...what did he just listen to.]

Um...pardon? I'm not sure how giving eggs away could cause me harm...

[Video]

[infinityunlimitedflame]

[Clearly the meaning of his words was lost in the fog of confusion tied to his aura. Or something like that. So let's try again.]

Because appearances can be deceiving!

[Better? No?]

[Video]

[armoredsoul]

--oh! Don't worry, I won't be handing my eggs out to anyone that would mistreat them.

[peach_boy]

You're really kind for giving those away to the newbies!

[armoredsoul]

Well, I figure having a good, strong Pokemon can really help when you're just starting out, you know? I was lucky and had people here that knew me from home to help me travel, but not everyone has that to rely on.

[peach_boy]

Yeah! It helps a lot! I had some of my friends when I arrived too, but you know, Pokémon are extra special!

[armoredsoul]

They really are! It helps a lot to have a good team when you're on your own, even if you aren't battling a lot.

[crouching_sin]

[... Oh. Well.]

Hm... I showed up in January. I can promise you an egg for that Ralts in the future if you'd like, if that's not recent enough.

[Video]

[armoredsoul]

[Hmm...well, that's close two months, so...]

Sure, no problem! I can get the egg sent to you right away--where are you at, right now?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

I'm in Azalea Town right now. What about you?

[When Rossiu responds to Alphonse's video, he's in the Pokémon Center in Cherrygrove. He's wearing the same clothes he started out in and he's in a cheerful mood today. He actually looks sort of happy, which is different.]

Hello! I haven't had a chance to raise any Pokémon from eggs, but I've been reading about it and it sounds fascinating. I've had Data help me with the list and I've examined the Pokémon you mentioned, but there are two that I didn't see in any of the books I've gotten.

[He's trying to improve his reading skills! It's going pretty slowly, but Rossiu isn't going to give up.]

"Fennekin" and "Amaura" are two Pokémon I didn't see listed anywhere. If you still have them available, I'd like one of each, please! I can pay you; I've been working and I think I'm getting the hang on currency.

[VIDEO]

[armoredsoul]

[Al grins seeing his friend pop up on his feed, and nods as he listens to him. It sounds like he's been working really hard!]

Yeah, those two are some of the ones that showed up pretty recently! There's not as much information on them just yet. Fennekin is a Fire-type fox and gains Psychic-typing when they evolve, and Amaura is a combination of Ice and Rock types, and sort of dinosaur-like. There should be a little something about them in the Pokedex--if there isn't, the Center should be able to give you the upgrade for it.

I'll send them over to you! And don't worry about the money for these guys, just promise you'll raise them well!

[adai]

Ah, they both sound excellent! I don't have an Ice- or a Fire-type yet!

[He's already got a Psychic-type, but he figures he can compensate for that somehow...]

Oh, no, I couldn't ask for them for free! As I said, I've been working, so payment won't be a problem!

oh man already?? that was fast!
i haven't been breeding so i don't have an egg to send back yet
is that okay?

private text

[armoredsoul]

It's okay! I wasn't expecting yours to be ready so soon--honestly I was doing a batch to raise a bit of money and took the opportunity to get you your egg. I don't want you to feel rushed or anything!

[fortunatetoaster]

aw man but now I feel like I gotta pay you back. Otherwise I'll feel bad!

you're still in Goldenrod, yeah? is there anywhere you really like to eat in town?
