Violet City's esteemed Gym Leader, and a lover of bird Pokémon. MDNI.
It's probably time we started preparing for the migrations stopping here in the fall. The bird sanctuary at the shrine to the south needs restocking yesterday.
Preparations for the city's summer festival are coming along nicely. I suppose that means I'll have to find something to wear.
#一日一ポケ #Pokémon_GS No.164 Noctowl I first learned about shiny Pokémon when the main character, Satoshi, caught this one in the Pokémon anime at the time.
Looks like Pride Month’s over. I’d say it’s for the best. The birds with the gayest plumage were getting too cocky.

There really is no contest when it comes to the coolest type of Pokémon. I'm just glad I chose the winning team.
"Come on, I'm not likely to run away. I cherish my bird Pokémon way too much for that." Had Morty always had such a pervasive stare? It felt almost exposing. He shifted awkwardly, almost hiding behind his hair. "You know I have no idea what's going on inside your head. You're an odd one, Morty."
Hardly the first time he's been told to "lighten up". It doesn't help that his face rests naturally in his disapproving frown. "I... wouldn't be opposed. It's been a while since I've paid Ecruteak a visit, and it might help refine the elegance of our battle strategy." Really, when was the last →
Not you, Bugsy. You know I respect you for being so responsible.
If you find battling me so very annoying, I don't know how you handle all the challengers who walk through my doors with a Furret and nothing else. You should really be better prepared. I look forward to trouncing you with my elegant bird Pokémon. You might want to work on your gracious loser face.
Oh geez, so you're making a real official challenge huh? Sheesh, I always gotta prepare specific measures for you. Your birds are all mostly normal types too, sooooo annoying. (Had to teach a lot of his ghosts thunderbolt, ice beam, or icy winds so he could pluck those feathers.)
They can always waste their time challenging your Gym, instead. Careful on the slides.
You're not considerate of people with a fear of heights.
Let it be known that I'm not an asshole, and I take my job seriously. If only all the other Gym Leaders could say the same.
Your—?! I see what you're doing, getting me flustered. It won't work. Prepare to lose handsomely to these birds you seemingly love so much.
Why on earth would I remove the safety pads when my favorite little bird is coming for a visit? I wouldn't want to see you get hurt. (Not in that sort of way, at least.)
What a convenient loophole. I guess you're entirely in the clear, then. Incidentally, when I come to challenge you in a few weeks to sate my own curiosity, please don't remove the safety pads.
Hey, the teleports at the bottom drop them on safety pads! I make sure to keep those up to date! Lance is well aware. (He doesn't like them, but I'm not breaking any rules so he can't stop me!)
You don't need to rub it in our faces, thank you. I'm not above alerting Lance to the current state of your safety procedures.
Phew, that's good at least. Then no one has beaten my mean ass invisible floor puzzle, wonderful. I need to maintain the title of meanest puzzle for noobies to face.
In fairness, we've taken to having a trainer escort challengers across the rafters in case they lose their footing. So it isn't quite as dangerous as it might sound.
Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. They aren't even being suspended above the ground.
Just a simple go down the right slide puzzle. That gets reset everytime you choose the wrong slide. And you have to get it right three times in a row. Simple.
"If I tried taking a vacation this close to the lantern festival, I suspect the village elder would denounce me for good." (Just as easy to provoke as ever, but then he's always taken things personally. His honor is no small thing to leave at stake. He groans, catching himself.) ->
You say that like you were expecting me. I take it your clairvoyance warned you ahead of time? ...I still don't buy it, but it's good to see you. You seem well.
