[Machi has been delaying his gearing and questions. But now he has turned it on, while in the Goldenrod Department Store.]
My Pokey-mon... all evolved. Into the same Pokey-Mon. [he said, showing a group of Swablu.] This is not normal, yes? [and then the video just clicks off. Machi is not one to linger on the network.]
