[The first thing to broadcast, as is probably common in audiovisual communications, is the background music of either Celadon or Fuschia City. Those familiar with the area might be able to tell by his surroundings. If anyone is paying attention with all of the shaking and whipping around of the camera.]

PUT THAT DOWN!

[Ah, yes, in case anyone hadn't noticed the number it is indeed Neji, not a strange messenger bird who'd gotten its hands on a pokegear. The one who did have its hands on a pokegear was Naruto's gift to him: the unruly Riolu that he'd taken to calling Inuzuka when shouting wasn't necessary.

There's a few moments where Riolu clearly pays no attention to the command, before a hand appears and Neji pries the gear away from the pokemon. Firmly.]

That is quite enough. Regardless of whether you misbehave, you are not to disturb other pokemon while they meditate simply because you are bored. Such behavior will not be rewarded.

[Ah. Yes. The feed is on, isn't it?

He frowns at the screen a few moments.] I don't suppose any of you have advice for dealing with restless and unruly infants?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[He gives a resigned sigh at that.]

Much as one would any child, you mean.

Well, maybe you did need to learn that.

They're a step above pets, at least.

Pets you are allowed both to select and to decide whether or not you would like to raise any. [The answer is no. It's always been no, he's not a pet person.] Is that the extent of your advice? To raise it as one would an unruly child?

Hey, you can choose not to catch additional Pokemon. Just keep the ones you have if they're too much effort.

[He shrugs and wouldn't apologize if asked if he's enjoying this.]

Well, that's the cliff notes version. I mean, you have all the tools for raising bad kids at your disposal.

Like bribery.

Impossible when one has eggs forced upon them by well-meaning friends and strangers.

[Then again, it was possible it wasn't well meaning, considering the way Riolu has turned out. Perhaps the ones up until this point were luck and they meant to foist unruly creatures on him...]

Bribery of a pokemon.

Maybe you get worse friends.

[Ones who didn't give gifts.]

You'd be surprised. I mean, how do you think animal training works?

Perhaps that would be best.

[Before he's buried in pokemon.]

Pokemon are more intelligent than most animals I have seen. I would compare them to summoning creatures instead, which are not to be trained.

Got any idea how to pull that off?

[Smirk.]

Training appears to be the locals' preferred parlance. They seem to grow differently when they're with people, I mean. Battles against Pokemon that have trainers is a lot more beneficial than battle against the wild ones.

[He frowns in annoyance.]

There are other effective methods to train creatures than simply throwing them into battle and exhausting them.

Yeah, not a fan of exhausting them, personally. I switch them out a lot-- give them a taste for battle without getting knocked out.

Why, what methods were you considering?

[...He frowns peevishly.]

I've yet to decide on any methods. [He doesn't have any better ideas. He just...doesn't like that one.] As I said, though. Simply exhausting them to make them malleable to training is not the sort of training I would prefer to participate in.
