HELLO, EVERYONE. THIS IS GORDON COLE SPEAKING. I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT POKEMON EVOLUTION, AND I’M HOPING SOMEONE OUT THERE CAN ANSWER IT. NOW, I’VE READ THE HANDBOOK AND UNDERSTAND THAT POKEMON CAN CHANGE FORMS FOR SEVERAL REASONS, BUT I’M A LITTLE CONFUSED ABOUT SOMETHING. YESTERDAY, MY KRICKETOT EVOLVED INTO A KRICKETUNE. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THIS IS NORMAL.

[Or as normal as the Pokémon world gets anyway.]

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO ASK THOUGH, IS HOW COMMON IS IT FOR A POKEMON TO MAKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NOISE AFTER EVOLVING. I CAN ACTUALLY HEAR THIS SOMETIMES, AND I’M PRETTY SURE IT DIDN’T MAKE THAT NOISE BEFORE. IT SOUNDS LIKE…ACTUALLY, LET ME SHOW YOU.

GO AHEAD. IT’S RECORDING.

[There’s some silence, and then… this.]

IT’S REALLY STRANGE. ALSO DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IT’S NORMAL FOR POKEMON TO GROW A MUSTACHE AFTER EVOLVING? BECAUSE THIS ONE DID. AT LEAST IT LOOKS LIKE A MUSTACHE. I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHAT IT IS.

[Well, the fact that Yang can sense disaster and Reid is a walking trouble magnet might contribute to his seriousness about training.]

I almost wish my animals were the same. Yang and Elle always start pawing me if I've been reading for a while and they're feeling restless, and they won't stop until I've taken everyone out and gotten them at least half a level stronger. I have no idea how they have that kind of energy.

THEY SOUND VERY DIFFERENT FROM MINE, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, IT SOUNDS GOOD THAT THEY'RE FOCUSED. YOU'LL PROBABLY BE READY TO GET THAT BADGE SOON IF THEY KEEP THAT UP.

[leftinbasketforfbi]

At least that. It would definitely make it easier to travel place to place, and maybe they'll calm down a little once they've won a badge.

[canthearyou]

LET ME KNOW WHAT HAPPENS ONCE YOU GET THE BADGE. I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THOSE THINGS, SO I'D LIKE TO KNOW HOW THAT WORKS.

[Because he's not really sure how it enables things to Fly that should already be able to Fly.]

[leftinbasketforfbi]

Neither do I, so hopefully having one will be informative. I'll keep you updated if I get one.

[The only reason he's taking that rule vaguely seriously is because of all the other crazy rules here that apply.]
