You know, I was under the impression that I'd taught my Pokémon to keep their word whenever possible. Yet it seems I was wrong, and now I've to deal with this thankfully small pile of eggs.
[The pile in question is, by any regular standards, enormous, but the years have long twisted Cecil's sense of scale when it comes to such matters. Still, Rosie the Clefable does look almost worried as she pats each egg in turn, and Cecil himself looks like he's battling a headache.]
If any of the available species catch your eye, feel free to buy an egg or two. Considering the circumstances and our... need to revise our agreement, I cannot promise they'll be available during our usual summer clutch, or even in the foreseeable future.
[Rosie turns away from the pile just long enough to shrug at the camera. Their trainer is a softy, there's no way he won't let them have their regular summer fun!]

Do many of your Pokémon share the same egg group? Have they expressed any interest, even theoretical, in children? If yes, I'd strongly suggest establishing strong boundaries early.

[OH NO. CECIL. CECIL SAVE HER.]
I will...have to have a long conversation with them, I see. I haven't so many, but...

That is precisely why you must establish rules now. Once they are in place, your current team members will enforce them with newcomers, and it'll be easier for you to control the situation. It's worked well enough for me these last few years.
[A beat.]
Except today, of course.

Like a cat bringing you it's kills, but with more responsibility.

...That was part of my argument for a restricted breeding season, actually; that the children in question would not be sufficiently admired, should they become too commonplace.
