006 [video/action]

[There's a shot of Rika walking down the streets of Violet City as she carries an egg. The camera is a bit shaky since the cameraman is a Drifloon currently floating around its trainer. She looks up at the Drifloon.]

... I wonder when he's going to hatch. [Rika looks back down at the egg again, and it starts wiggling. A lot. So strongly that she's barely able to hold it.] Ah! [The Drifloon takes hold of the egg as Rika takes the Gear from it.] Thank you, Guardian!

[Suddenly, a Mime Jr. emerges! It barrels towards Rika and into her arms, almost knocking her backwards. She manages to keep her balance and hugs the baby pokémon. Rika grins and looks excitedly at the screen as the Drifloon floats behind her happily.] He hatched!

[She giggles.] Any name that suits Mime Jr's personality is also fine!

--eh? I think you would know more about his personality than I would...

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

I do! Only, I can't think of a name.

[action]

[combat_butler]

There's always using the name of someone he acts like.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

That's true! Did you do that with any of your pokémon?

[action]

[combat_butler]

*errr*

Y-yeah... Hina and Saku are both named after people I know...

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Really? What are they like?

[action]

[combat_butler]

Hm? Ah, well... Hinagiku-san is... Mm. She's a very stubborn and strong girl. But she's also incredibly kind and treats all of her friends with respect. To be honest, I really admire that about her...

As for Sakuya-san, well... She's energetic, violent and stubborn... However, she's also kind to those she cares about, and has a pretty good sense of humor. In fact, I would say her sense of humor is her defining feature.

[She smiles] They sound like some of my own friends from home. I'd like to meet those two someday.

[action]

[combat_butler]

Ahaha... The odds of that are pretty low, but I'm sure you'd get along with them!

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

You never know! A friend from my hometown is here, after all.

[action]

[combat_butler]

Mm... Still, I wouldn't put too much faith in it...

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Hmm... It really isn't very likely... The fact that we're even here is still surprising.

[action]

[combat_butler]

Yeah... There's really no order involving who comes and who goes...

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Yes. It's all a matter of chance.

[action]

[combat_butler]

Haaa... Which is exactly why the odds aren't in my favor...

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Is it because you have bad luck?

[action]

[combat_butler]

Mm... It's been a big factor in a lot of things for me.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you'll have good luck someday!

[action]

[combat_butler]

Mmm... I'm not.

Which is exactly why I need to work hard.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

[She pats him on the head.] I'm sure all that hard work will pay off, then!

[action]

[combat_butler]

Ahaha... At least it has here! Working hard to train my Pokemon is easy enough.

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

Exactly! And all the hard work of traveling will pay off too!

[action]

[combat_butler]

Mm... I hope you're right. Though we haven't done that much traveling, have we?

[action]

[complexrestart.livejournal.com]

No, but I don't mind taking a break at all! I've been having a lot of fun in Violet.
