3rd Arrow [Video]

[Good evening, citizens of Union. Tonight you are graced with seeing Umi again! And she's back in the city! It's truly a miracle. She's apparently in a section of the habitat for water type pokémon.]

I've returned from my trip to the swamp, and it was...eventually successful.

[To prove her point, she holds up a shiny Skrelp, and it's a good thing she's wearing gloves, because it's drooling all over her hand.]

...is there anyone who has experience with a Pokémon with a drooling problem? He doesn't seem to stop.

[Private to Maki]

Now that I'm back in the city, I recall that you were interested in learning some basic stretches and exercises, right? If you're still interested, I'm available now.

It...didn't even put up a fight. But yes, I finally found one.

[Which was kind of disappointing. She thought something so rare would be well...more than a sluggish drooling thing.]

I don't know why he does it, he just does.

Did you feed him? I drool when I'm hungry.

[Honoka...]

[She'd facepalm, but with her gloves coated in poison drool, that would be an unwise decision.]

The only thing he'll eat is bananas.

Bananas? [Oh...she gets it.]

He liked the bananas I gave you?!!!

He refuses to eat anything else.

It's probably going to be a problem.

Why would that be a problem? Are bananas hard to get?

[Not for her they're not!]

It can't be healthy to eat only bananas.

But bananas are good for you. Are you sure it doesn't like poképuffs? Those are delicious.

[Getting hungry...just thinking about it...]

Everything else I've tried he'll take into his mouth, and spit it out, rendering it inedible for anything else.

[...unless there's something that eats poison? As useful as that could be, something like that would probably not be pleasant.]

You should eat healthier, too.

Eh-! [Yikes! Caught.]

I try to eat healthy, I eat fruit sometimes... [She gets sick of fruit really fast though, just like certain sweets her parents make at their shop.] But I really like poképuffs!

Did you try asking it if it likes anything else?

You should have a more balanced diet overall.

[Don't make her put you on a diet!]

He refuses to eat anything else.

We have to find out if that's bad for him! We could go to the library and find out!

[Honoka, forever lost in the library. She's never been there, she just knows it exists.]

It's obviously bad for him! If he only eats bananas, he won't get the full range of nutrients he'll need to grow properly.

But what are we supposed to do then...

[She blinks a few times. She doesn't want Umi's Skrelp to get sick.]

You could ground it and send it to its room if it doesn't eat anything else! That's what my mom does!

[Give her a moment to try and determine whether or not Honoka really just suggested that.]

...I don't think that really applies here.

But it's just like not eating your vegetables! I always get in trouble if I don't eat all my food!

[IT TOTALLY APPLIES.]

I have to keep him in the habitat.

Oh... [Hm, no grounding in there. Pokémon can kinda go wherever they want.]

Well, let me ask him if there's anything else he likes! Put him on the video!

Be my guest.

Ren, you're on.

[Give her a second to focus the video on the skrelp just sort of floating lazily in the water.]

Excuse me! Ren?

Could you tell me what you like to eat other than bananas so Umi can feed you?

[The skrelp just blinks once before it responds. Bananas...]

Besides bananas! That's can't be all you want to eat!

[SHE WON'T TAKE THAT FOR AN ANSWER]

[Umi sighs. The skrelp just stares blankly. I'll tell you if you give me a banana.]

Umi, Ren said if you give him a banana he'll tell me. Give him one quick so he says what else he wants!

I don't have anymore bananas right now. He's eaten them all already.
