Ring, ring...ring, ring... beep!

Hello! You've reached Jane Crocker. Sorry I couldn't pick up at the moment, but if you could please leave your name, number, and a brief message, I'll get back to you as soon as possible!

There's a certain logic to it, be it an extremely flawed one.
Is there really a sentient bag of garbage? Is that one new? How the fuck don't I have one?
We're going to need to catch this monstrosity immediately.
Ah.
That could happen.
But I was thinking more along the lines of the clearly obvious power restrictions put into place on all of us.

[cyan_maid]

You can find them in most alleys in Goldenrod. I'd say I'm surprised you haven't seen one, but considering your habits as of late, I'm not. When we get you back up here, I'll show you where I've seen them.
I suppose it'd be silly if WE had powers while interacting with Pokemon,
though. I mean, why would you catch, befriend, and train a giant bat when you can fly? Or, why would you have a Pokemon with arm-swords when you fight with swords?

[brocrux]

Why WOULDN'T we have a Pokemon with arm swords while also fighting with swords?

[cyan_maid]

...Because...why would WE need to fight with swords...when Pokemon do all the fighting...AND have swords?

[brocrux]

Why would the Pokemon do all the fighting if we have swords now?
We fight with the Pokemon.

[cyan_maid]

There is literally no one that we have to physically fight in this world, unless we really need to. See: Team Rocket, and punches to the face.

[brocrux]

What if I just want a good spar with a steel type, Jane?
You're taking the fun out of the idea by pointing out the impracticality of physical violence.

[cyan_maid]

You're going to end up hurting yourself that way. Also, Dart is not sparring with people. He's not allowed.

[brocrux]

Dart and I are going to kick each-other's asses.

[cyan_maid]

No you are most certainly not!
He already barely listens to my own commands as it is! What if you got seriously hurt?
