[Video] Remodeling Time~

[scalpelofmarmora]

[The video post opens with Ulaz standing in front of one of the doors in his house. It is an interior door based on the walls. A gaggle of small Pokemon stands with him - his Espurr, Eevee, and Marill]

Thank you for tuning in. My Espurr, Irkut, was excited about starting the remodel and wanted to do this as though it were a remodeling show. So...

The weather has improved so it is time to start with the remodeling of the house. As I have several water Pokemon, one of whom- [He stopped as the camera rotated seemingly on its own to show off the Finizen outside in a kiddy pool through a window. The small dolphin seemed to be having fun and she had babysitters in the form of a Leafeon and Mightyena] Meze. [The camera rotated back] As I was saying, I have one who requires water now so we are going to remodel what will now formerly be a bathroom so the water Pokemon won't be so isolated.

But first, we need to remove this portion of the wall. I have already checked the plans and it is not a load bearing wall so it is fine to take it down. Safety is important in any job so you should wear proper safety gear.

[He paused a moment to pass out small hardhats and eye protection to his Pokemon, all of them happily exclaiming. Irkut had to use his powers to hold the goggles in front of his eyes, Primdes the Eevee looking a bit confused by them before chiming in happily. Once they were set, Ulaz put on his own hat and goggles]

Now that everyone is ready... [The Pokemon stepped more to the side] We are ready to take out this wall. Right here please. [Ulaz tapped a spot on the wall before stepping to the side.

And that was the most warning there was before a Bastiodon surged forward and rammed the wall, taking it out quite handily and making a hole in the wall almost large enough for Ulaz to step through. Ulaz's three Pokemon exclaimed in excitement. They had been expecting this at least so they weren't surprised by the Bastiodon punching a hole in the wall]

Thank you, Tryske.

[Ulaz said as the Bastiodon was backing up from having rammed the wall. Tryske looked decidedly pleased with himself as he turned around to wander off. He had helped!]

Well that is the first stage of demolition. We will be sure to show more when it has progressed.

[He glanced down at his Pokemon. Ozriv the Marill was playing with her goggles now, Primdes nodded his head back and forth to make his hat wiggle, and Irkut had stopped using his powers so the goggles just tumbled to the floor]

Thank you for watching.

Well, that's... one way to get a wall down.

[Keith laughed.]

Good thing he didn't hit something weight-bearing.

[thetombkeeper]

[A perfect sphere for a floating donut.]

I'd really appreciate that, Ulaz. Thank you. I think there's a workout facility with a pool in Goldenrod we could use.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Yes, Alwyn has ended up the babysitter for Chatzea. At least he doesn't seem to mind it and she doesn't either. My friend had mostly an older team, so perhaps he is enjoying being around younger Pokemon again.

[scalpelofmarmora]

I am as well. I doubt all of them are so enthusiastic, but he is a special case.

Any thoughts you might have would be appreciated. I have various ideas, but the bathroom is priority due to my water Pokemon.

[scalpelofmarmora]

It is. I debated other options, but Tryske wanted to help do something. This seemed to be most useful for his particular set of skills.

I made sure it was not. I would not want to cause any additional problems by damaging the house.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Of course. I am happy to help. Yes, we can use that for practicing. It would make it easier and safer for learning.

[That would amazingly cute, a Spheal in a donut floatie]

[crystalmaster]

That's really cute. It's good if he enjoys that and isn't overwhelmed by it instead.

[tempredmental]

How's the work coming? From here, it looks like you're making some good progress.

[Behind him, Keith's Aegislash was going through some motions for moves it had recently learned. It was training with his Houndoom, learning to handle fire moves, a weakness it was trying to overcome.]

[thetombkeeper]

I'll message you when I'm in town next and have some free time then!

[scalpelofmarmora]

[Not overwhelmed, he was enjoying it. He even used a paw to flip a little bit of water at Chatzea. As the dolphin happily reacted, Alwyn trilled again]

I think he enjoys it.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Yes, we are making progress. I am going to get some help with the remodeling soon so it will be faster.

[Ulaz spotted what they were doing in the background]

Looks like some intense training there.

[Training? Yes, training? There was very quickly a shiny Honedge trying to peer over Ulaz's shoulder, wanting to see what was happening. She can see too? Ulaz, noticing Treg was there, raised the device so she could see a little more, which also let Keith see the shiny]

[scalpelofmarmora]

That sounds good. I will look forward to it.

[tempredmental]

Let me know if you need anything. I'll help out if I can.

[Keith raised his eyebrow as the Honedge popped up before he could answer.]

Uh, yeah... I named him after Kolivan, actually. He's pretty intense. I figured it was an appropriate name.

I see you have a shiny Honedge. [Keith sounded a bit amused.]

[crystalmaster]

Awww. He makes the perfect baby-sitter.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Thank you. Even to help distract some of the younger ones would be helpful. Chatzea is no longer the youngest of them.

Interesting and appropriate. I too ended up with a Pokemon named Kolivan. He is a Toxtricity that came from Thace.

I do. I have started calling her Treg. She also came from Thace's Pokemon. She was apparently only recently caught because she did not have a name. [She was trying to get as close to the device to see what the other two Pokemon were doing] She also enjoys the idea of training.

[In case you couldn't guess by having a Honedge taking up the screen now...]

[scalpelofmarmora]

He is. He seems to have a lot of patience whereas some of the others do not.

[crystalmaster]

That’s great it’s something he enjoys. It looks like his charge is happy too.

[nastyboy]

Indeed - and if the construction takes some time, such items may prove to be suitable substitutes, until things are back on track.

Of course, one never desires such setbacks to occur, but it is best to keep a backup plan in mind.

[scalpelofmarmora]

She is. Chatzea is very happy about almost everything. I don't know that I have really seen her upset.

[scalpelofmarmora]

Yes, I think so. I am doing my best to plan everything out so there will not be any setbacks, but there is only so much that one can do before something unforeseen happens.

Very true. My Espurr is very excited about the remodel, but also having him try to help think of ways to prepare if things don't go well.

[crystalmaster]

Awww, that's really cute. That's a lot like Evie.

[nastyboy]

Oh, would your Espurr perhaps like a friend, then? To talk over such matters when you are busy?

You see, many of my own companions were involved in the construction of our own large homestead, and Silkie in particular is quite knowledgeable about a great many subjects. Perhaps she could be of assistance, and she does like feeling useful.

[It's because it feeds her ego, it's. fine.]

[scalpelofmarmora]

Would you like to come over and meet her?

[scalpelofmarmora]

Yes, I'm sure that he would love a friend, especially one that might want to talk over such matters with him. So having another to talk would be good for both of them.

[So Irkut could have a new friend and his Silkie could be useful if she liked being helpful]

[crystalmaster]

Sure, if it's not too chaotic to have visitors right now.
