[The feed opens to what looks to be Bo-Katan’s legs, and a hand dangling at her side that’s wrapped up. The other arm extended towards the camera. Her patient voice speaking to the Pokémon who was holding it for her.]

There you go, just keep it steady all right?

[She steps back and now the camera is pointed up to show the upper portion of her body.]

Marowak.

[Taakur expressing her confidence in the directions she was given. The Marowak had done well to use her pokegear before to call for help, so her trainer was teaching her to use it better. The Mandalorian now addressing those on the network.]

I don’t know about anyone else, but this has been a very eventful week for me. I’ve never seen my Pokemon so eager to train before. Not that I’m complaining, but I have to wonder what brought this on all of a sudden.

[As she’s talking a lizard climbs up her back and perches on her shoulder. It’s a bitty Cyclizar of a very different color than usual. Its beige and off-white skin glittering. It makes a happy sound and presses its head against Bo’s cheek, drawing a small smile from her. Reaching up she pets the Cyclizar’s head.]

I’m having trouble just keeping up with all the training they want to do. Not only that, they’re growing quickly. Eight of them even evolved just this past week.

[Its been nothing short of amazing to her.]

Have I missed something? Is there a reason this is happening that I don’t know about?

[Give Vash a minute, he's a little distracted by all the cool Pokemon Bo Katan seems to have gathered up. Thankfully he has the decency to not turn on his camera until he's focused, at least.]

I don't know what's gotten them all riled up, but I'll have what they're having! Seriously, I could use the help with training. I haven't kept up on my routine in ages!

[mywayistheway]

Well if you and your pokemon are up for it I wouldn’t mind doing a battle or two. Maybe my Pokémon’s enthusiasm will rub off on yours.

[oleaeuropaea]

Oh - I didn't mean the Pokemon! Though, honestly, probably not a bad idea. [His Pokemon are... not woefully underleveled, but they didn't exactly benefit from the months Vash spent battling with himself over whether or not it was right to do.

But, no, He's flexing at the camera.]

I gotta keep in shape somehow! Just in case, you know?

[mywayistheway]

[A knowing smirk flits across her face.]

I do know. I have some catching up to do myself after spending a few weeks on Mando’s couch.

[oleaeuropaea]

Hey, things were pretty festive there for a bit! Nothing wrong with enjoying the holiday. Just like there's nothin' wrong with gettin' back into the swing of things.

[Which brings him, more or less, back to the topic at hand.]

Did you feed your Pokemon something new or somethin'? Anything like that?

[outofsynth]

Eight in one week? That's a lot to keep up with.

[mywayistheway]

You’re telling me.

I have 31 pokemon now and I’m starting to wonder if I got in over my head.

[outofsynth]

And I thought 17 was plenty...

[Even if he adds in the Pokémon he's not mentioning he can't compare to that. He doesn't think he wants to.]

[mywayistheway]

A variety is good for strategy, and… it’s far less lonely.

[outofsynth]

That's true, but I think I'd still have a hard time with so many.

You have some tough ones.

[Like Ori, and that Wartortle that seems to have it out for him...]

[crystalmaster]

Wow. That's pretty amazing, alright.

[Evie pops up to cheer.]

How are you doing?

[mywayistheway]

Better.

[She smiles at Evie.]

Well enough to do some training at least.

[crystalmaster]

That's great.

[Radley smiles, petting Evie.]

Thanks for that delicious cake at Christmas! We all loved it.

["Eevee-vee!" says Evie.

Radley had prepared baked goods for everyone too, including Bo.]

[mywayistheway]

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it.

[She had put a lot of work into making cakes for people though her accident had put a hault on it.]

I enjoyed yours as well. It was nice to indulge in something while laid up on Mando’s couch.

[crystalmaster]

[Radley could definitely tell that it has taken a lot of work.]

I'm glad you could enjoy that. Being laid up is no fun.

[phoenixwiz]

Wow, congratulations on eight of your Pokémon evolving and your entire team wishing to grow stronger! That is pretty impressive and wonderful news.

(A little Sentret then pops in with Harry, his ears twitching about in excitement.)

Sentret, Sentret, Sentret. Sentret.

[mywayistheway]

[She’s a bit distracted by that Sentret at first.]

A new Pokemon of yours?

[From what she’s seen a lot of people got Pokemon eggs during that holiday.]

How are you doing, Harry?

[phoenixwiz]

Yes, that Sentret is a new Pokémon of mine. Got him as an egg last Christmas.

Sentret, Sentret!

Feeling like a hot mess right now. I was supposed to be challenging Jasmine for the Boulder Badge but I was ignored for the couple of days. I’m not sure why but I was told Jasmine’s too busy to accept it this month.

[mywayistheway]

You mean the Mineral Badge? Brock is the one with the Boulder Badge.

But that’s very strange. I would have thought all the gym leaders would be back from the holidays. Perhaps try a different gym then. I know Sabrina is available here in Saffron.

[phoenixwiz]

Oh whoops, I must have gotten the two mixed up a lot. Thanks for the clarification. I didn’t mean to get Mineral Badge and Boulder Badge to be mistaken for each other often.

Hm maybe I should check if the Cianwood City Gym is available and see if Chuck will accept the gym challenge.

[phdepression]

That's really impressive. Eight Pokemon... and mine haven't really been in the mood to train besides my starter.

[That's not really true. It's mostly because Jotaro's had three new egg Pokemon join his team and his Pokemon are babysitting, evident by the Finizen and the Rowlett chasing after a squealing Totodile.]

Maybe it's just the weather just right for your partners.

[mywayistheway]

Perhaps, but then you would think everyone else’s pokemon would be just as eager.

[And so far nobody else seems to be experiencing this, including this man’s.]

Any ideas as to why yours don’t want to train?

[phdepression]

Perhaps. Besides what you're feeding them, I have no idea. [Then again, he's new so most things he doesn't know about.]

They will train when asked but no one is begging to be trained. [A small, shiny Cyndaquil nudges Jotaro's leg. Jotaro picks him up and puts him in his lap.] It's nothing out of the ordinary.

[mywayistheway]

I haven’t been feeding them anything different. Perhaps being idle the past few weeks has made them restless.

[Her attention then goes to that shiny Cyndaquil.]

What’s that? I don’t think I’ve seen it yet.

[phdepression]

Maybe.

[Jotaro pauses before he picks up the small Pokemon in his hands and shows it off. The Cyndaquil gives a small mewl and smiles at Bo Katan, waving at the camera.]

This is Echoes. He's a Cyndaquil, a fire Pokemon. He hatched from one of the eggs I got for Christmas. I'm told usually their fur is blue but he's a shiny.
