[The transmission opens with a slightly grainy and wobbly black-and-white image of the light of evolution fading to reveal a Fletchinder sitting on a fallen limb in the forest.]

I don't think I got most of it, did I?

[Fletchinder does his version of a shrug.]

That's too bad, but I'll get another chance.

[Fletchinder begins preening his new feathers while Apollo continues filming his starter.]

I've seen Pokémon evolve before, but this is the first time that someone who I've bonded with has evolved. It never stops being incredible to watch them change. I don't think I could ever get tired of seeing it. What about everyone else? Is it the same way for you?

[A brief pause as he remembers that not everyone is like him.]

How many of you have seen a Pokémon evolve before?

[The image wobbles severely for a bit while Apollo turns off the camera.]

She could be. She might be surprised when she finds a problem that Harden doesn't solve, though.

I DID try to hammer that into her when we first met. Unfortunately, I could not think of much to prove my point that wouldn't harm her unduly.

[Which had resulted in him kicking her, he would have to admit, but that just mostly resulted in hurting HIMSELF unduly.]

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

If she used Harden enough I don't think that there's much you could do that would harm her, at least without using Enlightened abilities.

[all_onis_are_true]

Would the intent not have scared her off, though?

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

Depends how confident she was in Harden.

...Supremely so, based on my observations.
