you're not wrong. i don't know. i'll help you pick the place if you want. give you an allowance for the rent or something. $1000 a month sound good?

lik u'd pic a good place.

[Never mind Nikolai wouldn't really know the first thing to look for in a house other than It's Awesome and Expensive and cool!!!!!!]

i was gonna go with your picks you have to make sure they work for your pokémon as well though you don't wanna get somewhere ages away from water

and? johto dnt hv a lot of wtr it did fine.

i mean if you wanna deal with a dehydrated feraligatr performing poorly then be my guest it's not like i'm a water type specialist or anything

[And there is a video back.

Of the darkest glare he can muster.]

[archie sends a video in return.

it's crobat and wailmer playing with each other.]

No wonder that thing's going to stay weak. You do want a wailord, right? Or are you content with that beach ball wannabe forever?

[Right. being nice to the guy who's offer to give you $1000 a month for rent re: own place in Heropa isn't on the to-do-list. Of course.]

Hmm... if I'm going to put this in a way you'd understand, I'd say that her aversion to battle means that no matter how much I forced it and trained her, she'd still be weak in comparison to any other Wailmer like her. There's no point making her suffer like that.

Besides...

I don't care if I get a Wailord. I already have one.

Boo hoo. So what? A pokemon that doesn't fight is useless. Then again, you are a bleeding heart, so it's expected of you to have a pokemon that weak.

[He snorts.] Not here so it doesn't count. Thing would have been useful in the stupid floods. More useful, even.

There are plenty that don't fight. It's not me being a bleeding heart, it's me understanding that the world doesn't exist to serve me.

She probably would've been. She likes helping.

[he shrugs, then focuses the camera back on crobat and wailmer to spite niko. watch them having fun, turd.]

No, it doesn't count, but that doesn't mean I don't know how to raise one. Speaking of, have you made sure to keep Feraligatr's hind leg and jaw strength up? Golbat's fangs sharp?

Hmph. You baby them and then ask me if I've kept my tools in working order?

What do you take me for? Some stupid rookie? Hmph! Pokemon that can't fight are useless. Do the maths, or are you that thick headed?

[~~That's what you are in another game- I MEAN~~.]

Including the Slowpokes that give their tails for your udon? Or do you only eat ones that came from world-class Slowpokes?

I don't think you're so stupid that you need to get a clue, Niko. I think you know that the natural balance is upheld by plenty of Pokémon that don't battle. Primal Kyogre, for all its power, was defeated after all. Yet the seas still remain.

Perhaps if you understood you and your teams place in the world better you'd be able to battle more effectively with them. You won't get any better until you can adapt what you're doing right now, because all you're doing is misusing the power your team holds naturally. Beat your head against the wall all you want, but you won't be able to break it.

Well if someone came in with a slowpoke, I could tell you If I have! [He really wants a bowl of that now, thanks Archie.]

Aww, whatever you say.

[In one ear and out the other because he's not getting into this now, mostly because he knows Archie is right (about some things!!!). So. Back to the moving topic.]
Tch. I'll move to Heropa. Not that I'm gonna live near you, so that means I have to think carefully about my house! I can easily catch a bus to the beach for the water, and there's parks with ponds, so that's not an issue.

Anyone with half a brain wouldn't let their Slowpoke near you.

[well, whatever. he can keep this up as long as he needs to. he owes it to niko's team, if nothing else.]

You can live on the other side of the city if you want. Let me know if you want help. I have plenty of moving company numbers.

Hmph. It isn't like they feel pain, and the tail's grow back. Everyone knows that.

[For the briefest of seconds, he considers saying a big fat NO!!! to the help, but then - he also has no idea what is... good... for a house. He has his standards, but - He's still a child all things considered.

Who's about to get his own house, but. details.] Hmph. You're lucky I don't know to house shop, [or fill out anything relating to renting a house and is fourteen. So. Everything is you know, a bit worse than Nikolai thinks it will be...] so I guess you can help.

[archie wisely decides not to get into an argument pertaining to pokémon biology.]

Apartment. Don't think I'm gonna let you get a giant two storey place all to yourself, now.

What? No way! I don't want some dingey run down place! I want a house!

Hmph. I could probably find one for a 1000 a month, anyway!

[and now he's going be looking this shit up, thanks Archie.]

You're fourteen! I'm not spoilin' you that much! You ain't gonna find a proper house like that that either of us could afford anyway, even if we pooled our cash together!

[ECONOMICS. JEEZ.]

An apartment. There's plenty of very nice ones in central Heropa. What school do you go to? I can sort out the transfer for you.

Hmph. What? Houses aren't that hard to look after. [Yes, as if you'd know, Nikolai.]

Then it better be a nice one.

[He gives the name of the school over.]

[archie makes a note of it on his comm and SIGHS VERY HEAVILY. this is a worse and worse idea.]

Yeah, whatever, just don't call me late at night if you put too much soap in the washing machine or something, right? Not too hard when I'm gonna be handling the bills... ugh. [stupid kid.] Here.

[he sends a few links of places that are a LOT smaller than what niko's looking at - mostly the sort of places students would live - but they're compact, have everything and a good location.]

Yea, yea. Whatever.

[Sorry Archie, there's going to be at least one late night call where something's broken. But that's a while off, at least?

And then there is The Most Offended look on his face at those links.]

What, you expect me to live in something like that?

I lived in smaller when I was in college. What's wrong with it?

It's smaller than my bedroom back home!

Weren't you traveling?
