✩ SECOND DISCOVERY | VIDEO

[adai]

[The video opens to show Rossiu seated on the bed in a hotel room. He's wearing his usual outfit, completely with stupid poncho and currently has quite a few books spread out before him. They're all incredibly simple and have more pictures than words, but the topic seems to be Eevees and their evolutions. The Pokémon in question is sleeping sprawled on top of some of the books.]

Hello. I have a question for you. I'm sure this has been asked plenty of times before, but what should I evolve my Eevee into?

[Rossiu picks up one of the books, flipping the pages absently as he thinks.]

I already have the following types: Psychic, Ice, Fire, Grass, and Fairy. That leaves Umbreon, Vaporeon, and Jolteon. I suppose I could keep him as an Eevee, but I'm not sure what the advantages to that would be.

[He finally looks back up at the 'Gear, his expression still far too serious for this conversation.]

I'd like to hear about your experiences with Eevees and their evolved forms as well. While I would prefer to evolve him into a type I don't have, I'm not opposed to going with something else.

[...]

Oh, and I have another question. Does anyone know why Eevee has so many different evolution choices? I thought all Pokémon had one path of evolution.

[Alright, that's everything. Rossiu nods to himself.]

Thank you for your time.

Ah, really? That's really interesting. I wasn't aware this could happen to others!

[He's definitely going to have to get more books.]

I've already asked him about it. He said he doesn't have any opinion. Though of course I'll check with him again once I've made up my mind.

[defyingfrigidity]

I don't think it can happen to too many other species, but it's not extremely rare. Eevee is a special case mainly due to how many different evolutions it has, and the various conditions surrounding each one.

[She's lucky Ymir went with one of the easier evolutions... it would have been a bit of a hassle to backtrack to Goldenrod City just to get one of the stones to help him evolve...]

That's good! Just make sure to give him some time... it's always possible they might change their minds later on.

[adai]

Right! I don't want to force him into anything. I'm sure he'll let me know if he decides on something. Thank you for the advice!

[defyingfrigidity]

You're quite welcome! I know how it feels, being so confused over what to do next sometimes, so I try to help wherever I can.

[adai]

I really appreciate it. Everyone's been so nice here. I guess it seems like a silly thing to get caught up on, but it's wonderful to see so many people striving to help one another.

[defyingfrigidity]

Oh no, I completely understand. When I first arrived here, I... wasn't exactly used to asking for help so openly. But seeing how much the people here helped each other helped me feel at ease with asking questions.
