[Yuuko's finally made it out of Union Cave, and while she's happy about that, that isn't the reason she's making this video. She waves to the screen before speaking.]

Hi, Yuuko here. So I guess this wouldn't be much of a big deal to those who have been here longer than I have, but one of my Pokemon evolved while I've been traveling! And she seems really excited to show it off, so I just thought I'd make this video.

[Yuuko turns the camera to the right, revealing a Steenee that's standing a short distance behind her.] This is Ina! She was a Bounsweet when I caught her, but now she's a Steenee. [Ina waves to the camera as well, but with a lot more enthusiastic bouncing up and down. She has actual arms now! And longer legs! And no longer has to worry about bird Pokemon trying to eat her! The world is now so full of possibilities!

Yuuko just smiles. Her children Pokemon are growing up so fast...hey, she has actual kids at home, so she really can't help but be reminded of her own daughters.]

So, I guess that's really all I wanted to-- [Yuuko is then interrupted by Ina squeaking excitedly and bouncing around even more, the pigtail-like sepals on her head swinging around wildly as she gets even closer to the screen.]

W-wait--Ina, slow down...! [And it looks like Ina got so excited about evolving that she's knocked the 'gear out of Yuuko's hands and cut off the feed. Whoops.]

She seems very excited about evolving. Was happiness a factor?

[Chise can't help but sound amused, try as she might, because watching that scene play out had been kind of adorable.

A Noibat is flopped on her head nibbling on a berry while her Litwick is perched on her shoulder, as usual.]

She's definitely going to keep you on your toes.

Oh, sweet- she looks so cute!

None of my Pokemon have evolved yet- to be honest, I haven't even seen it happen yet, so I don't really know what to expect. But I've heard that it'll take a pretty long time for a few of them to reach that point- like Hammerjaw, and Yamarashi.

Congratulations! One's very first evolution tends to be the most memorable of all. What kind of opponent managed to trigger it? A Pidgey during routine training, a Mareep while facing down a local trainer...?

Congratulations! It's pretty incredible how these guys grow, huh?

... even if they are more of a handful.

Hurry! Don't let her escape!

[You're not helping.]

It's pretty exciting when your first pokemon evolves, isn't it?

[Boone remembers his own first evolution, when his Pidgey evolved into Pidgeotto.]

It'll be exciting when your starter evolves, too. Kinda makes you feel proud.

[His Drapion is in the background, waving his claws around as usual.]

Oh, she's really cute. And no wonder she's excited. I haven't had any evolve yet myself. And I have to admit their concept of evolution was a bit ...strange at first.

But hey, as long as the pokemon are happy with it.

Congratulations!

[Lance sounds way too excited about someone else's Pokemon evolving, but this is Yuuko. If he can't be excited for Momfriend, then who can Lance be excited for? Keith? Pfft.]

Did she get any super cool kickass moves?

[Ivy sees you're talking about a grass type and needs to get in on that.]

Oh, isn't she beautiful?
