So, uh...

[A quick bolt of electricity whizzes by in the background before Chie even gets started.]

...Does anybody have any experience with getting Pokemon to stop being afraid of things?

[And again, in the other direction.]

I mean, afraid of, like, everything.

[There's a low buzzing sound and Chie turns around to briefly reveal a Rotom hiding behind her shoulder.  Once it sees the Warp Band is on, it dives back behind her.  She sighs, shaking her head.]

Usually I'm the one who's afraid of Ghost types, but this is just ridiculous.

That might be a good start.

[To Chie:]

He's going to try getting in the bike.

Wow, really? How did you manage that? You must be magic.

I just told him that it's okay to be afraid, that not everything is out to get him, and that he can slowly get used to the things that scare him so he isn't overwhelmed.

Well, I'm glad it worked out this time.
