2nd Sprout

[toxicodendron_isley]

[This time, Ivy's appearing to you on camera. She seems to have adapted to this world well, as she appears relaxed and calm, sat on a grassy bank of Route 32, holding the egg she purchased from Walter safely in her arms.]

Hello, petals. Pamela again.

I just wanted to thank you all for the generous amount of information you all provided me with last time. [The redhead gives a smile that appears genuine but you can't help but feel there's a edge of slyness to it.]

All your answers were incredibly helpful. So helpful in fact, that while doing some of my own 'hands-on' research, my Tyler has undergone the evolution process so many of you told me about.

[She proudly turns the camera to show off the Ivysaur. Her hand strokes the large bud on the creatures back before caressing the side of its face and scratching under its chin.]

Isn't she just gorgeous?

[The Ivysaur makes a contented noise and Ivy returns the camera to herself.]

Once again, you all have my thanks.

Oh, I'll be careful. It's not my first time exploring a forest.

[pipers_son]

Oh, do ya travel a lot, then?

[toxicodendron_isley]

I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy traveling, but actually, I specialize in botany so I'm used to visiting vegetation filled areas.

[pipers_son]

Ooooh! So yer a real smart one, then. No wonder this kind of place is interestin' ta ya. Ya don't really see animals and plants mixed together as one, do ya?

[toxicodendron_isley]

If you mean have I see the two combined before then yes, it's a field of study I have dabbled in.

[pipers_son]

Oh, now that's interestin'. Not a lot of folks here could say that, I think. Most have trouble believin' it.

[Along with every other Pokemon type.]

[toxicodendron_isley]

Well, humans can be very narrow minded.

[pipers_son]

Are ya not human?

[There's no disbelief in his voice or mockery, just the same casual tone as usual. Listen.... When you've been in Johto a while, you become open minded.]

[toxicodendron_isley]

I wasn't. Here though, I'm not so sure.

[pipers_son]

Well, I'd wager it still counts. I mean, ya lived yer whole life that way, right? A vacation in here where the rules are a tad different can't change that.

[toxicodendron_isley]

I'm glad you see it that way.

[pipers_son]

I've been here for a while, ha- it's really opened up my mind, ain't any doubt about that.

Funny what ya start thinkin' about when yer stuck in a place as weird as this!
