[The view from the Pokégear is askew, as if it had been dropped on a bag in a hurry. The image is dark and a bit foggy, but sufficient staring reveals Cleffa, frowning, deeply engaged in-

-a staring contest with a Shuppet?

It is a test of wills. Only the winner will show itself worthy of being the greatest of all Pokémon. The tension is nearly

Go, Mr. Harvey! You can do it!

[puppet_paladin]

I'll do my best! ...Though my best is not very good at throwing.

[mysticpearly]

You should join a baseball team! Then you get to practice.

[puppet_paladin]

Baseball? What is that?

[mysticpearly]

It's a game! You... well, you throw stuff. And run around in a square. And then a guy in a shirt with stripes yells at the guys in the black.

[puppet_paladin]

I wonder if they play this game in this world. Their lives seem very Pokémon-oriented.

[mysticpearly]

I wonder what they do play, here? [Then, reminded of Gassy and his kin:] Besides tricks.

[puppet_paladin]

Some of the Plant pokémon have vines. Perhaps they use them as jump ropes?

[mysticpearly]

But if someone trips, wouldn't it hurt?

[puppet_paladin]

...Right, that could be painful for the pokémon.

Maybe they have races?

[mysticpearly]

But what if they're slow?

[puppet_paladin]

There's always playing dress up.

...But that only works for girls. And too many pokémon wouldn't fit even in adult clothes.

Hide and seek?

[Cecil is now really starting to wonder what people do in this world.]

[mysticpearly]

But if they're really big, they can't hide.

[puppet_paladin]

And those invisible ghosts would have an unfair advantage.

...They couldn't go swimming with Fire pokémon. Maybe they go camping?

[mysticpearly]

That might work! They could make sure the campfire stays alive.

[puppet_paladin]

And if you have a good tent, the rain isn't too much of a problem unless there's a storm.
