[ Hey, Johto! Remember Ellie, that precociously adorable little teddy bear? Here she is again! She's soaking wet from the feet up, plodding across the floor of the Violet City Inn and carrying a (mysteriously dry)
egg that's almost as big as she is over her head. The camera follows her as she pushes it ahead of her up the stairs, occasionally

The fact he knew it was going to hatch into a demanding little creature just like it's mother filled him with the same sort of dread he'd felt at the Demon Queen's announcement she was expecting a daughter seventeen years ago.
But you know what? All of that was forgotten when faced with an utterly adorable pink kitten on the feed.]
T-That's... [he WANTS to say 'disarmingly precious', but all he can do is sort of wibble.]

Another admirer of feline divinity, hmm? She's quite charming.

It was called a Skitty, you say...?
[Seeming to have sensed her trainer's wandering attention (or maybe attracted by the words "feline divinity"), Princess suddenly leaps onto his shoulder with a disapproving glare and lash of her long tail. Hi, remember her, Gaga? She saved your team from failtown, buddy.]

Oh - my. [ And now it's obvious that he's just somewhat accustomed to the charm of a Skitty, not immune to the lure of felines on the whole. His eyes sparkle. ] And who is this little piece of Heaven?

Ah! This is Princess. I discovered her egg among my supplies just before the new year and named her in honor of the princess I'd left back home
[Blue, feline eyes fix themselves on the man on the other side of the monitor uncertainly as the glameow considers Sebastian. You aren't trying to steal her buffoon, are you? There are many like it, but this one is hers.]

[ After a moment, he seems to remember, and he holds the 'Dex up to the camera as it plays the entry for Delcatty. ] Skitties evolve with a Moon Stone. Their evolved form is quite enchanting, as well.

Gaga, meanwhile, remains transfixed on the screen, watching the information for Delcatty as it scrolls past, and the tinny voice of the pokedex rattling off it's biological facts.]
So it seems...! [oh my dear gods, a pokemon that seems to be made entirely out of pure adorable.] If you should happen to locate a partner for your Skitty, I would be honored if you would consider me for one of her eggs.
[He fumbles into his pocket to fish out his wallet and check his funds, his expression steadily going from excited to crestfallen. ....technically he COULD afford the asking price, but that would leave him with nothing for supplies. FFF...this is hardly fair.]
....p-perhaps I could interest you in a trade...?

A trade? I suppose that depends on what you have to offer. [ He's still eying Princess admiringly. ]

....I do happen to have an egg. [he says, seeming moreso to have said it to get a reaction out of Princess. When she can't be bothered to even acknowledge him (and why would she? She's too busy being admired!), he fumbles into his knapsack, fishing out a dove-colored egg a moment later.
It is precisely the shade of the glameow's fur, with a rosy pink ring on it's front. As her egg is presented, Princess turns her attention away from Sebastian only momentarily to give it a cursory sniff and then go back to ignoring it. Mother of the year material, she is.]
This one had an impromptu run-in with another trainer's pokemon and this was the result. I'm not sure whether you might be interested or not, but...

I'd love to. I'll let you know when I arrange a breeding with Lucy, here, and we can make the trade as soon as the eggs arrive, if that's all right?

However, it seems her lack of interest persists. ....that or she recognizes the importance of sharing her greatness with people who clearly appreciate her. Either way, no arguments here!]
That--that would be perfectly fine, yes! Thank you.
