[ The feed comes on to show Sakura sitting against her Arcanine. In her arms is a large Clefairy doll. Her grin is bright and she appears to be doing much better than she was the last time she came on the network. ]

Hi everyone! Um, I don't know who sent me this. [ She holds the doll out towards the 'Gear. ] There was a note, but it never said who sent it. But, whoever did, thank you! It means a lot to me.

Oh, and the TM, too. [ A pause. ] Kero-chan can learn it, so I'll probably teach it to him. Then I can be protected from the g-ghost Pokemon.

[ A slight look of uncertainty crosses her face. But when her Arcanine nuzzles her side, she smiles again. ]

So, to whoever did this, thank you! Thank you a bunch!

[ Then she leans forward and cuts the feed. ]

That would be cool! [ A pause. ] Kero-chan used to be smaller and cute. Now he's big and kind of scary looking. But that's just his outside. He's actually really shy and clumsy. [ She giggles. ]

[He considers a minute, then tips the camera to focus on his Absol, who is currently sitting obediently at his feet next to a sleeping Persian.]

What do you think of this one?

[And he reaches down to pet it a little as he shifts the camera back.]

And what sort of Pokemon is Kero-chan?

Oh, it's cute! [ Resting her chin atop her new doll. ] What's it's name?

[ She glances to her right at something off screen. ] He's an Ursaring now. But he used to be a Teddiursa.

Phantom. He was my starter, when I arrived here.

[Despite being offscreen, Phantom perks up a little bit at the sound of his name, and starts paying a touch more attention to what his trainer is doing. He may make a reappearance yet.]

Ah, yes, that is quite a change. But you're right, evolving only tends to change a Pokemon's shape, not its personality or nature.

He's really pretty. His look kind of reminds me of someone I know. One of my friends from home.

[ Still looking off screen. ]

Kero-chan doesn't like to be around when the 'Gear is on. He'll try to hide if I point it at him, too.

Does he really? He reminded me of something, too, and that's how he got his name.

Though I must admit, I don't think I've seen a shy Ursaring before. It must be quite the sight.

[ She giggles. ]

You should see him try to hide behind trees. It looks silly.
