...I have some time to spare, it seems.

[Well here's a new face, clearly on the Ferry headed for Kanto. She's found a nice secluded deck to sit on. In the background, a galarian meowth is doing laps around this deck at full speed.]

So I'll ask a question while I'm waiting. I'm given to understand there is a great many of these...Pokemon.

[She pauses, and leans back to make a ps-ps-ps at the Meowth, who comes immediately running to gnaw on her hand. It's fine. It's only a little extremely painful. She's fine.]

...How many of them are cats, like this one is?

[SHE NEEDS EVERY SINGLE KITTY.]

[You can practically see an exclamation mark over her head. SHe is giving this bitey bastard tummy rubs.]

Of course I do, they're still cats.

[ooc: we can, but she probably honestly forgot about it XD She's terrible at remembering faces.]

Well, to start with, there's two more variations of Meowth besides the one you have there.


((Well, I ask more in case Geddoe should run into her... XD))

[torinoko]

...Are there?

[ooc: She'd probably remember Geddoe's face but that's about it. XD that's fair.]

Re: video

[dreamsofahero]

There are, yes. The one you have is the variant native to the Galar region, but there are also varieties from Alola and Kanto, each with somewhat different appearances.

((So... she'd get to wonder why Geddoe's not terribly inclined to trust her?))

Fascinating...I assume it's a more drastic different than coat color?

[She is privately hoping there are calico meowth.]

[ooc: something like that!]

Re: video

[dreamsofahero]

Yes. While the Kanto and Alola versions are fairly similar to each other, they still differ somewhat in shape and proportions. And both look quite different from the variety you have.

Hmm.

There's no helping it, then, I need all of them.

Re: video

[dreamsofahero]

In that case, I would suggest noting the names of the species that interest you, and looking them up in your Pokegear to see where they can be found. And keep an eye out for anyone selling eggs of those species, too.

Interesting function for this thing to have.

[She is considering her pokegear with the malice of someone who has never owned electronics they hadn't jailbroken.]

Eggs...so all of them lay eggs, no matter the species?

Re: video

[dreamsofahero]

To be honest, I'm not entirely certain if 'laying' is even the correct way to describe it. It seems more like they simply make them... appear, somehow.

[torinoko]

...You mean to say there are professors of the study of these creatures and no one's sure how they reproduce?

[dreamsofahero]

I think it's more an issue of the Pokémon themselves being incredibly secretive about the matter, actually. It's quite easy to obtain eggs from them, but they seem very disinclined to disclose or allow anyone to see how, precisely, the eggs are formed in the first place.
