Once she's satisfied, she sets it down and backs away, revealing -- whoa, a whole team of nine. From Bruce the Hitmonlee to the still unnamed Pinsir, all of Chie Satonaka's Pokémon are here. But

[After she's dug herself out of the Poképile...]

Oh, hey, thanks! I almost forgot it was even coming.

[ahokonakamori]

[Always fun.]

Lost track of the time, huh? So how old are you?

[video]

[isthisourchance]

18! [She pauses.] Well, technically. I got here in November, but it wasn't November back home... Anyway, close enough!

[video]

[ahokonakamori]

Haha, yep! Congrats on getting to 18!

[video]

[isthisourchance]

Heh heh, thanks! There's been a couple times I wasn't sure I would... Looking forward to plenty more!

[ahokonakamori]

You weren't sure you would make it to 18? Or have a birthday in Johto?

Yeah, maybe I can get you a present, too!

[video]

[isthisourchance]

Uh... Both, actually? [She laughs a bit sheepishly.]

A present? You don't have to or anything, but if you really wanna, I wouldn't say no!

[video]

[ahokonakamori]

I'd be glad to!

[Chie, what goes on in your life.] Wh...what? You...might not have made it to eighteen?

[video]

[isthisourchance]

[She was kind of hoping Aoko would skim past that part.]

Ehehe, well... Long story short, my friends and I kinda had to chase down a murderer back home.

[video]

[ahokonakamori]

Oh my gosh! Please tell me you never got hurt!

[CHIE PLEASE LIE IF YOU DID.]
