Day 44 [video]

[seasaltkeys]

[The video opens on Roxas. He looks a bit worn out and kind of slumped.]

For anyone who has a Joltik, just so you know. They get bigger when they evolve.

[He lifts to camera up to show a Galvantura sitting happily on Roxas's head while Sparky is chattering at him to get down. The Galvantura shows no signs of moving, but rather settles in further, it's front legs coming down in front of Roxas's face. He attempts to brush them out of the way to no avail.]

A lot bigger.


[Private Text to Namine]

I was thinking we should head out to Kanto soon. Is that alright?

[Private Text to Sora]

Answer this if you're awake. Also, don't bother getting a bike. They suck.

That's crazy.

He's like... bigger than my DOG.

[Video]

[seasaltkeys]

A growlithe maybe, but not an arcanine.

I'd probably be dead if Axel tried to sit on my head.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

--well.

Cujo isn't an Arcanine.

_{[... No matter how used she's gotten to him, the thought of turning him into one is enough to make her freeze up with bad associations.]}

... But still pretty big.

[Video]

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah. He seems bigger than most growlithe I've seen.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Yeah, he's... big-boned.

_{[Which is a nice way of saying YES HE IS A BIT OF A BEHEMOTH.]}

[Video]

[seasaltkeys]

Anyway, I think there's a way to stop evolution if you don't want your joltik to evolve.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Huh?

No, I don't mind him evolving.

_{[She disappears from view briefly as she bends down-- when she reappears, the ball-of-fluff yellow spider is in her hand.]}

I'm just like... how do you TRAIN something this small?

He's never battled. I don't want him to get stepped on.

[Video]

[seasaltkeys]

I didn't send him in alone. Usually he went with Sparky, or I just switched him out really fast.

It's really easy to loose track of him in the tall grass though. Thought I lost him a couple times.

_{[As though imagining the scenario as he speaks, she brings the tiny bug closer to herself. 8( NO SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LOSE HER ZAPPY SPIDER BABY.]}

--I don't think he's ready for that.

[Video]

[seasaltkeys]

I kept thinking he would get bigger, but when he didn't I figured it was worth trying.

He's got good electric attacks.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Maybe I'll figure something out. We'll see.

... I have gotten zapped by him a few times...

[Video]

[seasaltkeys]

It's hard not to, with an electric pokemon.

I've had enough electricity for a while though.
