Could I get some comfort/advice for when I'm having a tough day, please?

My three recommendations. Hug Dropey. If you do not have Dropey a nearby pillow will do. Two, sleep. Taking a nap is good whenever but especially if you don’t feel like dealing with whatever life has for you. I was too lazy to think of a third one.

Tough days will happen. It can't really be avoided, unfortunately. Still, I'm proud of you for making it through all your tough days before. It's always okay to take time to rest and heal.

You’re just a person. People are flawed. People are allowed to have tough days. People are allowed to not always feel their best. It’s unreasonable to expect otherwise, so don’t hold yourself to impossible standards.

If you are to struggle in life, perhaps even several times over, you must remember this: you're only human. You will make mistakes. You will be messy and incomplete. You will face complex adversities that will make you want to shut down. But you need to look behind you and understand how far you've come. Keep your wits about you, and don't give up now.

The world is no utopia, unfortunately; there will always be days that are a struggle to get through. It's important to remember, though, that you've made it through every tough day that life's thrown your way so far--you're here now in the present, after all...!--so I have every confidence that you can make it through the strenuous days that are yet to come. No matter how awful they may seem, there is always something on time's horizon worth fighting for, persisting for, pressing onward for. I know you can win this battle.

The world isn't perfect. Nobodys perfect. And there are days and sometimes weeks where the world stops and you're trapped in a room with seemingly no way out. But one day, the door to that room will finally unlock, and you'll move on to brighter and happier days. No pain is permanent. As long as you keep trudging forward, you'll soon start seeing the light of day again. I believe in you, my friend. And we're all very proud of you.

if you could ask santa for any present, and your wish would come true, what would you pick?

Well, if it's something as big and guaranteed as that, I'd say something like world peace, or a home for everyone who needs one. But, if you mean something smaller and more tangible just for me, I think I'd ask for some Friend balls!

Probably a better sleeping bag this one has holes now.

I'd wish for everything to go right in the future. Oh and also an Upgrade for Huginn.

I wish that my family and...I suppose now new friends. Could all live happily together.

If we're allowing whole-on wish-come-true levels here, I think I'd wish for the permanent dissolution of all Evil Teams. On the more personal side, though, I think I'd like some sort of mysterious relic or artifact with clear occult connections.

[pokemonadventurerebegins2]

Are you afraid of losing your pokemon?

Yes. Dropey is the only one who understands me.

Not sure if I'd use the word 'fear', but I'd really hate to lose Yuntai--he's my family and my best friend, after all. ...unrelated, what's with that expression? Leave the creepy smiling to the ghost types and also me!

Yeah, of course. I love, they're a part of family. Even though I haven't had either Clover or Mina for long, it'd devastate me if I lost 'em.

Well I have to be...Cotton was all I had when I left a rather bad place. I don't know what i'd do without her.

...Of course I am. Who wouldn't be? My pokemon are part of me, and I of them. To separate us would be to remove the CPU from your computer.

[pokemonadventurerebegins2]

Do you guys have any badges yet? Or do you care about getting gym badges? If not, what are your main goals?

Current Objective: Survive. Side objective: Sleep.

I do not have any badges, nor is it my goal to, but I would not be opposed to trying out gym challenges for fun. As for my 'main goal', I cannot say I have some big plan- I'm mostly interested in the intricate workings of this region at large.

Nah. I'm not too into battling, honestly. I have goals, but probably not ones that'd be fulfilled on this journey. I just want to catch some Pokemon, and make some friends!

None yet, nor is it much of a priority. I came to this region in search of something, and that something is almost certainly unrelated to the League challenge. Gym badges are a side goal for me at most--I'll get them if it'll further my purposes or help the others... orrrr if it'd be fun..!

I don't really have much of a want or need to get badges. Cotton and I only really wish to travel and figure out what we really want to do with our lives.

[pokemonadventurerebegins2]

I am going to leave this case of PokeCola here unattended while I go do other things. I am sure that nothing bad will happen.

Nobody let their Pokemon out please. We need this if we have to travel again

...I prefer moomoo milk

So uhhhh were we supposed to guard the Sunglasses Ball's soda? 'Cause if not...

[pokemonadventurerebegins2]

Did one of you order this bucket of Spinarak?

Seemed like a funny thing to do

Awww! Hey, little guys!

Which one of us thought it was a good idea to order an entire bucket of Spinarak? Furthermore, why in the world can you order a BUCKET of SPINARAK?

I don’t know and I don’t like it

Why would you put them all in a bucket? Individual Pokéballs would be much better long-term travel accommodations.

.... They're crawling everywhere. Should we do something about that?

[pokemonadventurerebegins2]

Least favorite pokemon?

I can't say I have a least favorite Pokemon. They all deserve love and appreciation, especially when they don't get as much love!

Kantonian Weezing deserve love and affection just like every other Pokémon, but... it cannot be me who gives that to them, for the time being...

Gurdurr.

...Frillish. I cannot imagine a worse fate. (shudder)

Those rock creatures. I cant pick one specifically but they're just so awfully scary. They deserve good trainers, i'm just not the perfect fit for them.
