Angel, c'mon, think yer takin' it a bit too far...

[Angel the Mime Jr clearly disagrees, because she seems quite proud of herself as she finishes adjusting the camera and steps to the side. Joker has been forced to sit in the middle of his room with a sign hanging around his neck.]

[It reads thus: ]

I TOLD MY POKEMON NOT TO CHEAT IN A CASINO
AND THEN CHEATED MYSELF

Really, now. Isn't your Mime Jr a bit too young to learn about parental hypocrisy?

[Ash, you're the last person in the world allowed to offer parenting advice.]

[Mime Jr in question just pokes her face back into the screen to huff, but joker shooshes her away.]

Hardly. She's the one who's been with me the longest, and highest level too.

[captainash]

So she's a very youthful yet mature lady, then. Hopefully this means she'll thoughtfully learn the right life lessons from this.

[Considering that sign, he's mostly certain she will.]

[video]

[pipers_son]

I can only hope she won't put a sign on me the next time she disapproves a somethin' I do.

[video]

[captainash]

Of course she won't. After all, I'm sure she won't ever need to, right?

[video]

[pipers_son]

[....]

Never could tell the future like that.

[video]

[captainash]

As a Psychic-type, maybe she can. Maybe that's why she did this, to make it'll never be necessary again.

[video]

[pipers_son]

Could think of a few better uses for seein' the future than scoldin' me, frankly!

[video]

[captainash]

Such as cheating at gambling? But you already told her not to do it.

[video]

[pipers_son]

...Was thinkin' the lottery, actually.

[video]

[captainash]

...There's one in Goldenrod for sure, but does it allow you to choose your own numbers? Or is it randomly assigned to you?

[video]

[pipers_son]

Dunno, but wouldn't seein' the future help either way?

[video]

[captainash]

That would depend on how precise it is, I think. Would she be able to predict which number she'd get on any given week, or would she see exactly when she should buy a ticket to get the winning number?

[video]

[pipers_son]

Dunno. Actually, now that I think of it, I ain't particularly sure she's that kinda psychic...

[video]

[captainash]

...Maybe you should have her try it, just to see if she is. I mean, it's not like you'll lose a lot if she isn't, right?

[video]

[pipers_son]

We'll see. What do ya think, Angel?

[He glances over to the Mime JR, who puts a hand to her chin thoughtfully. After a moment, Joker looks back to the camera.]

Yeah, she says she'll give it a try sometime.

[video]

[captainash]

Excellent. Please share your results with the rest of one you've tried. ...Or not, since that would probably destroy the odds.
