I've been thinking about the significance of our first pokémon. I find it hard to believe the species given to us are random.

[A brief pause. He's been bothered by this ever since his arrival, actually.]

The initial reaction on meeting your first is important, whether it was fear, familiarity, anger, amusement, or the more unlikely indifference. Then there is of course the more pressing question: why were we given these particular ones?

I'd appreciate your thoughts.

[He's investigating again. Action for anyone in Azalea - he'll most likely be hanging around the pokémon center, working there and all.]

I imagine most would. Now, what is an otaku?

People who obsess over Japan's games and stuff. Something like that.

Japan made 'em, then they were released in the rest of the world and it got all popular.

You from before the mid 90s?

Most people here appear to be from the future, seen from my perspective. I'd ask what it's like, but I think I'd like to see for myself.
