Ah, the life of a single parent! I do not suppose there are many ladies out there who would find an unwed father particularly appealing. No, no, I'll have to hang up my hat on midnight fun soon enough. But these are the choices we make, are they not? [He's not sure he really chose to go on a Pokemon adventure, but why split hairs?]

I must say she was much easier to keep an eye on as a human - even visually impaired! Haha.

It seems I can't even educate my new little ward - not in book smarts, at the very least. Thankfully I was never one for rigorous study.

[For those more inclined to encounter Yuuya in person (or birdson), he is doing his very best to sunbathe luxuriously with his new Budew on the castle grounds.

Lucky the Pokemon is so small and also not really mobile - anything larger would be running circles around Yuuya. Nevertheless, if natures were easily transferable, this Budew would be Naughty. Every time it gets up to go exploring, Yuuya leaves his sunbath to track it down, herding it back with a buffet of his wings.

As he ruffles himself out for another attempt at leisure and glorious sunshine, Yuuya closes his eyes and calls to the open book:]

But it's nearly beach reading season! Whatever shall I do?

Until next time, mes amis. Safe reading.

Adieu!

They were a bit complicated!

But what it seemed to be was that we'd preen ourselves up a bit, with accessories and the like. Then they would make their grandest debut on stage, performing for all of the judges! Buddy was a natural, of course. [She takes after her father.] I could not tell you exactly how they scored everything, but I believe cuteness was quite important.

There you have it! Much less dangerous than all that battling hype! I'm a lover, not a fighter, Miss Takamura.

That sounds like it was a lot of fun! Eevee was super cute, too. Maybe I should have entered it...

It was golden! We would have had a fierce rivalry if you had entered. A battle for the ages. I'm a very serious competitor, you see.

I don't doubt you'll meet again, here or there. Maybe then! Who knows?

I believe we will!

That's the spirit! Embrace it!
