[A recent conversation with Shaun- a bit of an unrelated one to what's on his mind, it was about sewing of all things- has got Chihiro thinking as he works on his PokeGear tonight, reviewing some strings of code that would be totally meaningless to most that he offered to Zip to play around with. The Porygon accepted the challenge with an enthusiasm that was almost adorable, really, along with serving to keep him busy for the past month.
His newly evolved Leavanny has been busy too, mostly interested in learning how to make clothing. Actual clothing that her trainer could wear. Naturally nothing had particularly been produced that would be suitable for a Pokemon to wear, much less a person, but nevertheless Chihiro is happy to be her model whenever she's gotten something done that she wants him to try on. Thank goodness for locks on doors, that's all he can say.
She'd been sticking to easy things, but she wanted to make full outfits. Most notable was her tendency to try to shape out patterns in spools of fabric that Chihiro bought for her for both skirts and pants for him to choose between. He always let her make the final decision, always. Chihiro's Pokemons' happiness always came first, it seemed.
Somehow, all of this culminates in a text to the network:]
Have you done anything recently that you could say you were particularly proud of? Maybe some sort of achievement or milestone that you have been trying to reach for a long time. Perhaps something you've been working to get over, and finally managed to overcome it.
You may respond anonymously if you would like...I am just curious to hear what you all have to say.
[Perhaps others have had more luck in that area than he has.]

But then, that's kind of the point, isn't it? Mnnngh.]
I've been working on talking to people about difficult things; it's been getting easier as time goes by, even if I still don't really like doing it.
It's not much, but it's improvement, and it's something that I've been needing to work on for a while.

I'm very happy for you, Ishimaru-kun. Speaking comfortably to others can be difficult sometimes...and any little bit of progress is good, isn't it?
[text]
How about you, Fujisaki-kun? Is there something you've been working on?
[text]
And there are still a lot of things I'm trying to learn, but it gives me something to do.
[There's a short pause, and then another message.]
I have also been trying to think about designing new software for the PokeGears. I haven't come up with anything yet, but it's something I have been thinking about doing.

[...GO FIGHT WIN, apparently.]
[text]
Thank you. I'm thinking about maybe asking sometime to see if there are things that other trainers personally think could be improved, and work from there. I'm sure everyone has ideas for what could be added...and I can't actually think of many, myself.
[Mostly because he's done very little traveling thus far and battles even less, so.]

[When in doubt, volunteer the protag.]
You ought to come out to Kanto sometime, by the way! The cities are interesting, at least.

[Right, there is a whole other region to this place, isn't there?]
When Togami-kun...was still here, he took me to Celadon City with him, before prom. We were only there for a few days, but it was nice. I would like to go visit there again.

[.......]
Are you interested in traveling at all, Fujisaki-kun?
[text]
I think I would like to sometime, yes...I guess I'm just a bit nervous about traveling very far. I would never go by myself, at least.
The trip with Togami-kun was very brief, and I came back to Goldenrod as soon as we had done what we came to do...I actually didn't stay there as long as he did.
[Which ultimately was a bit of a mistake- even though he's glad he went anyway-, since he had to come home alone, but somehow he seems to have survived the trip.
...so yes, never again.]
