Free Eggs!

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

So, about a month ago Apollo had a Deerling join up with him. Said Deerling has finally convinced his Sentret to make some eggs. Said eggs are free, or whatever your character insists on giving him, but can only be delivered by PC. Apollo doesn't know what moves any of them come with, since he wasn't expecting to have to deal with eggs.

But of course I can never play characters that make things easy, so there's a minor complication; Apollo wants to make sure the babies aren't mistreated, so he'll be asking everyone who's interested "What are Pokémon to you?". He's looking for "friends", "traveling partners", or some other phrase that shows respect and equality. "Tools", "followers", or "monsters that fight cool battles" are right out. If he's not sure about the answer he'll have one of his Pokémon ask the character's Pokémon if they're fine with how they're being treated. So if your character can give an answer he likes (or can get their Pokémon to lie along with them), everything's good!

Now that Apollo's done making this harder for his mun, on to the eggs!

The Sentrets are pretty cute. Can Robin have one?

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

They are adorable HM whores Pokémon.

What would Robin's answer to the question be? Kicks muse for making this difficult.

[thetruehistorian]

cough Some socio-scientific tl;dr about the mutually beneficial relationship between man and nature, ended randomly with "Also, they're cute, don't you think?"

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

...he might have to ask her Pokémon what they think of her. How would they respond if he does? I imagine the response from the Rocket starter would be interesting.

[thetruehistorian]

So interesting, it's better played out IC!

For better or for worse.

My thoughts exactly. ^^

If she can keep a good spin on things, he'll still accept her team's opinion over what she says and the egg will be hers.

[thetruehistorian]

Well, we'll see where the thread goes. It was actually very useful to have Natu be able to communicate with her, so thanks! I didn't even know your character could do that.

And one Sentret egg for Robin!

Glad to have accidentally helped! Yeah, Apollo can speak with plants and animals Pokémon, though only if he's close, since it's telepathy, which is why he needed Spearow to translate. I think. It's not clear what he's actually doing in canon. He could just be understanding animal calls really well, but since he has a line about a tree telling him stories and he later uses telekinesis, I figured "telepathy" was a reasonable explanation.

[thetruehistorian]

I think that's a reasonably canon explanation. You gotta go with something, right?

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

Yeah. I hate guessing for stuff like this, but Aquarion has a bad habit of not clearly defining characters' powers. The version of him in the TV series is even worse for that (knows, plays that version at digital_dive). This at least I can feel confident in.
