[There is a concerned-looking Jigglypuff staring at the camera in this video. She's not concerned for the viewers, but rather the cameraman, who's offscreen.]

Hey look, Tear finally evolved.

[His voice sounds oddly muffled and scratchy. There are two reasons for this: because a) his face is half-smushed into a pillow and b) he's sick.]

'Cept she keeps slapping me awake. Pr'bly because I'm out of medicine. Anyone in Goldenrod want to do me a favor and go buy me some cold medicine? I'll reimburse you whatever it costs.

Not feeling well, are we?

[Look on the bright side, Luke. Sure, you'll have to dig your face out of the pillow to answer, but at least you won't have to use your sore throat to talk.]

Nope. It sucks

Washing out your throat with salt water should help with the soreness somewhat, if you're in need of a quick remedy to soothe it.

Otherwise, it sounds like the medicine is a good idea. Along with plenty of rest and fluids.

Trying to rest, tear keeps waking me up.

havent heard of salt water for sore throats but you seem lik you know what youre talking about so i'll try it later.

There's a reason why it works, but the explanation is a little unpleasant; the salt helps to get rid of what's making it sore, to put it one way.

Right...so salt can work like medicine too?

text

[doitrockapella]

In some cases.

Would you like the slightly more unpleasant explanation, or would it be better to just take my word for the fact that it'll help?

[fony]

depends on how grosss it is.

[doitrockapella]

Do you know what it is that causes a sore throat?

text

[fony]

Viruses? I think.

text

[doitrockapella]

Something like that. The salt makes it more difficult for the virus to stay around, so it doesn't linger as long.
