[It's late afternoon on Saturday, and... well, it appears as though Bradley took a detour to the National Park on his way to Goldenrod. He seems fairly confused by something, although it isn't really obvious what it is...]

My, these Pokemon certainly are resilient, aren't they? You'd expect insects to do much worse against a bird made entirely out of sharp edges, but it seems as though they only ever get knocked unconscious.

How curious-though, I suppose this sport would be less popular if your Pokemon actually had a chance of dying. Nothing really works as you'd expect here, does it? Speaking of which-what exactly are the standards for that bug catching contest? Surely, a...

[...how the fuck do you even describe that thing... he doesn't have it out because he is not some kind of Ash Ketchum type, but... uh...]

...Scyther would be more impressive than some sort of cocoon, wouldn't it? I didn't have much of an investment in the contest in the first place, but it's somewhat baffling.

Ah, but that's operating on several assumptions, isn't it?

[Hello there, Bradley. As usual, the camera is angled horribly strangely, keeping the entirety of Descole's face well out of the frame; you can see the edges of a smirk well enough, however, as well as the fact that his hands are steepled together on the table.]

The primary one being that those judging the contest have any taste - given that they're judging insects all day, it's safe to say that their ability to appreciate things such as that Scyther may be a bit diminished.

Entirely possible, my friend. Entirely possible.

[...yeah, melodramatic bullshit is kind of Descole's deal here

it is what he does

deal with it]


That aside, however - you've been noting these things are rather durable, it seems. What exactly have you done to them - have you been able to draw blood on them, even?

[And that question is actually not judging you; he is genuinely curious about this.]
