unyieldingwill | The eggs hatch!

[Video or Action (Route 30 ---> 31)]

[Carrera comes closer, sniffing the newest team member... Before yipping loudly and deciding this creature was going to be a great new friend! The Mareep seems to agree as he reaches out a paw to pat the little Vulpix on the head but accidentally ends up giving her a bit of a static charged shock from his overly electrically charged fluff. The poor guy instantly looks ashamed and incredibly apologetic. But, he really needn’t have worried. He is instantly forgiven.
In the background the second egg begins to wiggle and then shine with a bright light, leaving an Eevee where the egg used to be. He blinks as his eyes adjust to the sunlight. But, instead of joining the others he hangs back, just casually watching.
Eagle can‘t be seen on the video but he must be there because soon after the second egg hatches the PokéGear is used to scan the new arrivals to find out more about them.]

Mareep, the wool Pokémon. Mareep stores static electricity in their wooly coat. They avoid battle and have a mild dispositions.

Eevee, the Evolution Pokémon. Eevee is a unique Pokémon that can adept to its environment by changing its form and abilities when evolving.

So you were what was inside those eggs. Now I suppose I will have to think up names for you both.
[A voice that sounds as happy as ever as Eagle lays the PokéGear to one side in the mistaken belief that, after recording the hatching that so many people had been curious about, he had turned the device off. ]

I wonder if it is very common for Pokémon to so remind their trainer of people they know…

Its silly.
[ I shouldn’t even be thinking about him at all. ]

But, they do both seem to like birds.

That means he'll like you, ne?

Then he should like Carrera…

[Oh! I said that outloud?? ]

[Here have a smile and a hasty subject change! ]

But, all of your Pokémon really seem to like you. You haven’t had any problems with any of them?

Amane-chan's the only real trouble maker. [[smiles, rubbing the back of his neck. While curious... not gonna push that.]] Though the Zubat doesn't seem to want anything to do with anything. [[a little sad at that. Arthur’s seemed so affectionate... ah well]]

Maybe you should try playing with him at night. He seems more reluctant to tolerate the sun than even other zubats.

I've tried. He just always seems to annoyed when I take him out of his ball.

I’m sure he will come around in time as long as you continue to look out for him.

You think so? [[looks a bit hopeful there. He's a little worried about the cranky bat]]

Most people usually come around if your give them enough time and patience. I would imagine Pokémon are the same way.

[[The hopeful look gets a bit warm. It's sort of odd to see in contrast to how happy and hyper he normally is. There's still that lingering insecurity about his ability to make [and keep!] friends at times]]

I hope you're right.

[Eagle wonders about that… but not knowing much about Bakura’s history with friends. ]

Don’t sound so uncertain. If you want something bad enough you can make it happen.

[~The power of your will~ ]

[[there's a bit of a pause there as something-- just a vague feeling like there was something he should have recalled there. Just that split second moment of a decision where--

He looked down at his left hand, at the faded scar that seemed almost invisible.

Something...

But then it was gone.]]

[[and he gives a smile]] Un. That's what Yuugi-kun believes too.

Is Yuugi a friend of yours?

Un! [[nod nods]] My best friend. His grandfather owns a game shop! He's probably the only other person in Domino who loves games as much as I do! [[says with a small laugh]]

No wonder you became such good friends then. If you share the same interests.

[[happy nod nod]] He's really amazing at every one he plays too! I don't think I've beaten him more than once at anything!

[You are gushing a bit there Bakura. ]

Then he would probably like this game we are playing? Being in a world full of Pokémon?

[[if your best friend was the King of Games you'd be-- .. well, no maybe you wouldn't, but if you were as big a nerd as Bakura was...]]

Un! He'd probably already have the first mini boss beaten. [[and have found a short cut that didn't exist before to get to towns faster to do it]]

[Eagle isn’t about to bring up how difficult that would have been. Clearly this Yuugi is something of an idol for Bakura. ]

You sure seem to think very highly of this friend of yours.
