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?

They should definitely hire you if you were running a corporation at fifteen! You think it's just because there's no way you can prove it?

I could ask for an engineering test, but they're secretive. It's a little frustrating. But app development for the Gear seems like a more realistic goal at the moment.

My traveling partner suggested some kind of simple game, but I'm still doing market research. Finding out what's popular around here, what people could use. Maybe something inspired by the Pokémon, some sort of...puzzle?
I'm still drafting.

[Hold on. Doppio needs to start fiddling with his Gear and see where it takes him right now, as they speak. He gasps; yes, he has spent two years here not knowing there's games on this thing.]
You can even buy more right from this menu? Technology is incredible...!

That's actually good to know, so. Thanks.

Huh? Uh, glad I could help.

I'll keep you updated if a game launches.
