They don't? But somebody was saying there was a thing you had to check...

[Aka Leaf talking about Pokemon's... bits...]

... ... ... ... ... ? [ That doesn't exist in Pokemon, Hibiki.

Breeding happens in the cosmos where Arceus blesses the parents with an egg. Shhhhhhhhhh. Either way, he looks at her a bit confused before tilting his head. ]

...I didn't really get the explanation either, so I'm... not sure...

It's all right. You usually just know. [ RED, THAT DOESN'T HELP. Pikachu will be running out because he senses another presence. ]

Trust your instincts.

Oh. Then... I-I guess it would be a boy!

[Oh hi there Pikachu. Fiery gives a squeak of greeting.]

[ Pikachu easily sideyes the new Cyndaquil because... OH GOD IT'S A BABY.

OH NO, IT'S CUTE. ]

Even if he wasn't, Fiery doesn't really sound gender specific, I think.

[Just listen to that adorable yawn! Baby needs a nap. ...Another nap.]

I-I guess so... It just seems kind of weird not to know what gender your own Pokemon is.

[ Pikachu wishes to hold the baby... Arms open and raised, he looks up to Hibiki with a beaming face. ]

I guess so. [ Let him try to think of a time he mistaken one pokemon to be of a different gender. ] But would you like anything to eat?

You and Fiery...

[Oh... He wants to hold Fiery? She very carefully takes him down off of her head and holds him out to Pikachu.]

I'll be fine, I think. I don't want to trouble you for food or anything...

But we have a lot. [ Did you forget that he's Ethan's predecessor senpai thing??

Pikachu will carry the Cyndaquil carefully now... Except he's a bit wary of the fire mouse's flaming back popping up. Still carrying as if he's a bird's nest. ]

[There's definitely some hesitation still...]

You're sure?

[Fiery gives a content yawn. Seems the Cyndaquil is too dozy to have his fire properly going at the moment.]

[ Pikachu is going to rock the baby back and forth as Red goes to the kitchen and open the fridge--

It is packed.

And by packed, I really mean packed tightly. ] I'm sure.

[SO MUCH FOOD!

That's... really, really a lot of food! She has never seen so much food in a refrigerator before!]

W-wow!

[While Hibiki is frozen in awe, Fiery gives a happy snuffle at the soothing rocking.]

What are you in the mood for? [ HE LEARNED HOW TO COOK A COUPLE OF THINGS! It's such an achievement! Even if it isn't much, it's something, right?

He's glazing over all the tupperware and looks over his shoulder now. ]

U-umm... What do you have?

[There's so many things, she can't even tell what is what.]

[ He blinks a couple of times before facing the fridge once more to analyze his inventory--then back to Hibiki. ]

Everything?

[Oh okay then.]

Er... then...

Maybe soup?

... ... ... ... [ Okay, he doesn't know how to cook that, but he'll go to the freezer part of the fridge and take out a pot!

Then putting it on the stove. ] It'll probably take a while to reheat.

Kind of wished Charizard can still breathe fire. [ Scratching his cheek before heating it up now. ]

W-wait-- If that's too hard I can have something else instead-!

It isn't hard, but... It might take a while. [ Yeah.

He doesn't mind though since he's patient with some things when he wants to be. ]

I don't mind if it takes a while... Err, if you don't mind, too.

[She doesn't want to be a demanding guest...]

I don't mind. [ He nods a couple of times before returning to the couch in the living room. ]

I like to think I'm patient. [ Most... of the time. ]

O-okay then...

[She wanders over to the couch, sitting down a little nervously.]

[ He'll follow after her though!! And take a seat next to her. ]

Have you been doing well?

[She brightens a little at that.]

Oh, yes! I've been doing well! It's been busy, but... I'm happy I was able to get everything done in time!

What about you, Red-san?
