And here we are, beginnin' the great Litleo Challenge!

[That's... sure Joker. That's sure Joker literally covered in Litleo- five for anyone who's counting- standing on what some might recognize as the ferry to Kanto. There's a Charizard in the background who's looking amused. Listen, he needed a flier to get him to New Bark.]

I've already done the gyms 'round Johto, see, and I thought I'd do somethin' more excitin' for goin' ta Kanto for the first time! So, what I'm gonna do is use nothin' but this group a Litleo! This here is Rose Red, this is Elsie, then ya got Biancabella, Florine, Nen, and- well Dovre ain't with us right now since I had ta use Torch here ta get us ta New Bark, and she'd bite my hand clear off too, but she'll be joinin' us once we get ta Kanto!

And a course, we're accompanied by good ol' Jimmy Two-Shoes here- [The Gear is twisted off to show the kid in question.] Wave hello, Jims!

For anyone who goes ta the Circus, Angel and Invidia are watching over it, save for the days when I'll be stoppin' in the cities. First time me and her will be so apart, s'gonna worry us both...

So that's that! Wish me luck~.

Not much seems ta kill folks here period, actually.

Old age, perhaps, but I'd rather not stay long enough to test that.

Got things ta do, I take it?

A son to raise, a kingdom to watch over, a world to save... I was busy enough even before I was given an adorable pink creature to raise.

...Well then.

[Quite a bit to take in. Especially that last bit.]

Must be tough raisin' a lad.

[YEAH LETS' GO WITH THAT AS THE TOUGH THING HERE]

Harder than I could have ever imagined. But he's a kind young man by nature, with a strong sense of justice; even if my wife and I had been subpar parents, I've no doubt he would have turned out well.

[All the pride in his voice. All the pride.]

[This sounds like a much nicer path to talk about.]

I can imagine. He sounds like a fine lad. I'd be glad ta meet 'im one day. What's his name?

Ceodore. A name that comes with a strong meaning and great expectations, but we knew from the beginning that he'd grow to match them.

Ah, a family thing, then?

It's a variation of my brother's name. A great weight to bear for a child, without a doubt, but also a prayer for better luck than his namesake.

Ah, a family thing. [Joker nods. He doesn't exactly have it, on account of his situation, but the Circus' decision to go by names he'd chosen, well, it's similar, he figures.] If nothin' else, he has his family ta help him if he starts ta get worried, right?

he has his family, and also comrades from every nation in the world. If anything, it'd be more difficult for him to find a way to deal with his worries by himself.

[An impressed whistle.]

Every nation in the world, really?

We've done much travelling to keep the world safe, and met many friends along the way.

And here I thought I traveled a lot, ha.

What kinda places did ya visit?

Deserts, mountains, forests, islands... Even the Underworld and two moons, though those visits were unplanned and unexpected.

The underworld, cor. I'd never call my life back home "borin'", but folks like yerself sure make it seem that way!

Not visiting a land filled with lava hardly makes a life boring, though I've no doubt the dwarves would appreciate the tourism.

Ha ha, I don't doubt it! What exactly do they have for that sorta trade down there, then?

A most lovely castle, a famous forge, wondrous caves, and easy access to both the Sylph's homeland and the Feymarch.

[Joker laughs into his hand.]

I wonder how many people here would call any sorta cave 'wondrous' with some a the paths we have ta go through here.

Please. The local caves can be crossed by unattented and unarmed children with relatively little risk. Ours are properly dangerous, and a threat even to trained groups of warriors.

Think we can convince the legendary pokemon a this place ta switch off with those caves and these ones?

Certainly not. Most trainers and breeders are much too young to face Vampiresses or Alraunes in all their... underdressed glory. We must think of the children.

Well, my oh my. So that's the kinda beasties ya have ta deal with, eh? Or is that rude ta call 'em as such?
