prank #48 | video

[John seems somehow distracted when he turns on the video today. He's sitting at the kitchen table in his house, chin propped in his hand and eyes on a Pokéball he's rolling idly on the table in front of him.]

You ever wonder what it is that determines what happens to a Pokémon after its trainer goes back home? I mean, I've thought about it before but never really thought about it if that makes any sense? This is really the first time I've inherited one that wasn't from a friend so it just got me thinking.

Granted, it originally belonged to someone who was... [He pauses, seeming almost hesitant to finish that sentence. Or perhaps unsure of how he wants to end it.] ...a friend. At...one point in time... [He trails off, brow furrowing as he stops rolling the ball around.] So maybe it has less to do with Eridan and more to do with her.

[He leans his chair back on two legs, picking the ball up and passing it back and forth between his hands, finally looking at the camera.]

So yeah. Anybody have any good conspiracy theories on the matter? I'm curious.

I wish I understood it. Perhaps if someone hasn't made many close friends, it's randomized. Some go to the wild, some go to us. I certainly didn't choose my first pokemon, though I'm glad I received her.

I also wonder if our trainer numbers could possibly have something in common. Have you found any match-ups on your Poke'Gear ID?

[NOW HE'S THINKING TOO HARD ABOUT IT.]

As briefly as I knew Donald, I'm glad to have Lily on my team. She worked fantastically in the haunted house.

Oh! Lily is my Stunky. She probably hissed at you a time or two--and I'm so glad to hear you and your friends had a horrible time!

Great!

[He lowers his voice suddenly.]

You'd be honest with me if something weren't up to par, right? I have a lot of weight on my shoulders to make next year's even better.

[Jack nods, though more so to comfort himself than any other reason.]

Good, good, glad to hear it.
