Shouldn't us grown-ups be the ones sending the twelve-and-under crowd cookies?
How've you been, kid?

[Text]

[sneezelikeakitten]

I'm almost 13. And I can buy my own cookies.

Trekking through a volcano looking for a Tepig.
Those things are pretty hard to find when they're the same color as the rocks around them.

Is a Tepig like a tepee pig or am I missing the reference?

[Text]

[sneezelikeakitten]

I think it's supposed to be tepid and pig combined.
It's a pig that can breathe fire.

[ratherbelocky]

That sounds like the opposite of tepid. And also like a ready-made luau all in one.
By the way, did you ever see the nurses after that incident at the Surfer Zene?

[sneezelikeakitten]

Just don't call it bacon. It doesn't like that.

I was in the Safari Zone, and yeah. They asked me how it happened. Apparently it's not uncommon to get beaten up by your Pokémon...

Got enough badges to make 'em listen?

[Text]

[sneezelikeakitten]

Yeah. The still don't want to listen.

If they're young, that's about when I resort to bribery. A good combination of bribery and discipline never hurt anyone.

[Text]

[sneezelikeakitten]

Bribery doesn't feel right, but if it gets them to listen I've got no other choice.

[ratherbelocky]

What, your parents never bribe you to behave at a restaurant? Perfectly ethical child-rearing maneuver.

[sneezelikeakitten]

You're comparing Pokémon to kids?

[Text]

[ratherbelocky]

You don't think it's an apt comparison?
