It's not the only place, but it's one of the few.

Have you considered asking a breeder about it? Or are you determined to catch one of your own?

text

[fony]

i haven't asked yet. no one around here is breeding them and i haven't asked anyone with the gear yet.

...

I can ask one of my sources, if you're interested in that. We're a tight-knit group of several breeders; it's very possible I know someone who could provide one.

text

[fony]

that'd be awesome. i actually don't like catching then that much anyway. it feels wrong.

text

[freshprints]

Because you're capturing them from the wild and bringing them under your control?

text

[fony]

That. Yeah.

[freshprints]

Then how do you feel about someone breeding their Pokemon specifically so that you can take possession of one of the children?

I didn't thik about it that way.

I think to some degree, it's important to accept that Pokemon are not normal animals. That is, taking them into your possession isn't simply capturing and holding them against their will. That sort of thing...means creating a bond of friendship with them as well. It's said that Pokemon thrive on being trained, and find the experience rewarding.

In other words...you shouldn't feel like a bad person for it.

Well i know they're monsters but even monsters have families and stuff.

The ones i've caught seem happy, i suppose. or not sad or angry or anything like that.

That's a noble way of looking at things.

Also, I've gotten in contact with one of my breeder associates. She's informed me that it would be possible to breed Charmander eggs in the near future; are you familiar with Fujisaki-san?

text

[fony]

Fujisaki? Never heard of her.

text

[freshprints]

It's possible she introduced herself by her given name, Chihiro.

Regardless, you're welcome to get in contact with her, if you'd like to inquire about an egg. Mention that Kyouko Kirigiri sent you and she'll know what it's regarding.

Oh! i know who you'r talking about now. i forgot that was her last name.
