second draw (video)
[ Kaiba's sitting out by the lake in Violet City, his small Horsea swimming and playing with a Magikarp, an Alolan Raichu, and a Hisuian Goodra. It's a happy scene, but their Trainer's still frowning a little. ]
I'm getting ready to challenge my first gym once Mizuchi evolves, and I've been working and studying here in Violet for the last week or so. I believe I understand the basic strategy, and I'll give it a few days to scrape together enough to buy a TM or two, but I have a few questions:
[ He takes a deep breath. If you thought these questions would be about Pokémon training, you'd be mistaken. ]
Why am I still considered a minor by this world's labor laws? I run my own corporate empire at home, and I regularly work at least 60 hours a week. To suggest I can't handle more than 20 hours of fetching, filing, or cashiering is insulting.
[ A small Meowth bounds up and mugs for the camera. He sighs and gently skritches behind its ears. ]
So in search of alternatives, I've read about Pay Day. Sliver here hasn't mastered it yet, but it makes no sense. How does this cat magically summon legal currency, and how has it not cratered this world's economy by doing so? You can't just print money, it devalues it. Unless it somehow creates productivity by doing so...or the move somehow steals someone else's money. Does it?

Your Eevees can learn it, but it'd be a lot of TMs if you wanted to teach them all.

I had no idea that was a possible move for Eevees. I'll definitely see about that for at least one of them!

[Evie warbles happily. She would love to learn Pay Day and be able to help Radley earn more money!]

My Eevee egg's been vibrating harder lately. I'll make sure it grows up healthy and strong.

That's great to hear! I'm sure you will.
[All the Eevees happily chorus at that. It's quite a sound.]
