Turns out that when you spend all your time flying around the world having your pokemon destroy inn furniture, you kind of run out of money.

[And he's way too stubborn to accept Carmen paying for everything all the time, even with her unexplained reserves of cash. So here he goes...!]

To fix that, I'm taking commissions for leather goods! I've been doing this for...just about forever, so I can make just about anything put of whatever this world's version of leather is, really -- saddles, bags, saddles with bags, coats, coats with bags, bags with hidden bags, you get the idea. I can also work with metal, but I'd rather not make any weapons. I'm thinking more along the lines of prosthetic limbs (not that most of you have need for that) or jewelry.

Depending on what it is, we can talk out a price that works. Call in today and receive a free egg or bunny rock thing with your order!

Or just call in if you want the pokemon and something crafted, I guess. I'll have a list of egg moves for the ones I have on hand, but if that's all you want then I'll need to ask you to pay for them. The daily swarm pokemon just need a good home. Haven't seen what these new guys can do in battle yet, but if you're in a pinch, they make an excellent dragon-repelling disco ball*!

*May or may not actually repel dragons. The scientists are still hard at work on that one.

[And as promised, HERE is his egg list, attached to the message! It includes pictures of Eevee, Arcanine, Scrafty, Emolga, and the mysterious Carbink, with notes that the Arcanine and Scrafty are evolved forms. Also shown are examples of things he's made (warning: that last one is a gif.)

EGGS STILL AVAILABLE.]

Cherrygrove is a nice place. I wonder if you'll be getting a swarm of pokemon down there, though. As far as I know, nothing has...ever really happened there.

Though that might just mean that it's about time it stops being so peaceful, huh?

Gosh, don't say that. You'll jinx it!

I quite like how it's so quiet. It makes a change from my old job, that's for sure.

Don't worry. It's when I say that things will be fine that I end up having to rebuild three houses. I'm predicting a catastrophe here! Sure to turn out okay.

[...wait -- ]

I mean, no. Things will be terrible. The earth will swallow us whole.

[There.]

What was your old job?

{That was one of the most adorable things she's ever had the privilege to witness.}

Can't wait to see that.

...it is a long and confusing story. And potentially mildly upsetting, depending on what your opinion on the afterlife is.

It's...a necessity. But we've all lost people. Maybe that's a story for another day, if you don't mind.

That's fine by me. It is a story better told in person, anyway.
