[Steve is sitting against a ledge, a perplexed look on his face, as a Hoppip floats around on a gentle breeze while clinging to a lock of Steve's hair to keep from blowing away (doodle), it happily chirps]

So, this Pokemon caught himself and doesn't want to be released... I guess he caught me, but is there, uh, another way to raise a Pokemon without making them fight? He's really not keen on it. Actually, he just sits there and cries.

[pebbles start getting thrown at the Hoppip by someone off camera, one hits and makes it start to cry, quite loudly. Steve gives a heavy sigh, because this is a regular occurrence since the Hoppip adopted him]

Hey, that's en-

[he turns to address whoever is throwing the pebbles and the pokegear gets closed in the process, ending the feed]

Twenty-one, and not counting the one egg I've just ordered. [Sounds a little embarrassed about that. But just a little.]

Some of them are not allowed in the house with how huge they are.

That's... a lot of Pokemon. I've only got the two plus two eggs. I'm still getting used to the whole, uh, catching idea. [aka he hasn't caught any yet because it seems too much like forcing the Pokemon to tag along with him]

I read up on a few, how big they are, it's not surprising they might not be allowed inside.

Ah, well, there's no shortage of trainers finding themselves with too many eggs. Though it's too much trouble if you get too much all at once.

Yeah, one of my eggs seems about ready to hatch and the other I'm picking up tomorrow when I reach Violet City, so they won't overlap too much. But I can see how having too many at once can be problem, especially for people who breed.

Usually it's not a problem for breeders, as a lot of them tend to give away the eggs to others, but it's a problem for those who tend to get carried away with buying far too many eggs.

That makes sense. I'll make sure not to get too many all at once.

Slow and steady is the best way to go.
