[Ember is still on the beginner's route, but that hasn't stopped her from breaking in her new PokeGear some more. People probably heard her over the 'Gear yelling at her "mom" while being kicked out of the house. She's calmed down some now, but she still feels like a coal out of the fireplace here. ESPECIALLY SINCE SHE'S HUMAN NOW....]

Hey uh, it's Ember. Ember Lumen. It seems like this thing is the best way to talk to people, huh? Well I just got one thing to say to all of you...

TELL ME ALL ABOUT FIRE POKEMON! I WANT ALL OF THEM!! The more the better!!!!!

[A pause.]

Oh yeah... and uh, my fire went out? Like normally I'd be totallyyyy covered in fire but nope, not here. Can someone explain what's going on?

Oh, I've got a fire Pokemon! She's- Oh shoot hold on!

[Then he all but DROPS the PokeGear, leaving it sitting on the table for the next ten minutes or so. His return is precipitated by the light of a Pokeball opening and disappearing somewhere downscreen. Gobo himself finally reappears, red in the face and out of breath; someone just had to haul tail to the Pokemon Center and back.]

Here! She's- [He leans down, struggles to pick up whoever he's got] -Oof, oh man I think I'm- [STRAIIIIN] -picking up the whole Fraggle Horn!

[Finally he manages to heft the front end of a Hisuian Growlithe into frame, who immediately breaks out into a big doggy smile. Gobo grins, scruffling around the horn.]

This is Dirge!

[Ember shows a bit of concern, but as soon as a happy doge appears on the screen, she smiles back.]

Oh, she's lovely! Hi Dirge!

[Ember picks up the more smaller, easier-to-pick-up Ash, the Vulpix.]

This is Ash! The Pokemon I got when I showed up here! Does Dirge breathe fire too?

[gobetween]

Ooh, a Vulpix! I saw one of those recently on my travels, though I wasn't able to catch it at the time. But still, that's pretty neat!

[The PokeGear shifted as Gobo moved it around again, to sit on the floor this time since Dirge was not going to be able to get into any chairs. And speaking of the Growlithe, she settled in beside him with a flop, one that swayed him briefly.]

And she sure does. She's pretty good with it too, there's three or four different moves she's got by now. [He leans back, affectionately draping an arm around her.] I hatched her from an egg that a friend of mine gave me, a few weeks ago.

[hottemper]

Oh they hatch from eggs too? I feel like I'm learning a lot about these little guys...

It's so cool to see fire Pokemon just able to be themselves here. I'm gonna train Ash to be the best he can be!
