10th treasure [video]

I need to know where I can get my Glameow declawed.

[No greetings, no smiles today. Just an angry-looking Ash, an angry-looking Glameow tied up and gagged with spider silk, and the wailing of a few Pokémon somewhere beyond the camera's view.]

Don't get started on how barbaric a practice it is or how she'll be unable to use some of her attacks. The rest of my team need their eyes more than she needs any of that.

[The cat hisses angrily at that, though it comes out a bit muffled, but Ash doesn't bother looking at her before he turns the Gear off.]

If there are others. For all we know the rest of the world doesn't care about Bug-types.

Oh, well, I know there are least two! And given the Johto and Kanto gyms...it seems like there might be a bug type gym in every region?

Maybe it's because they're so common. They'd want people to know how to deal with them on the road.

Ah, that's a good point! Although I do wish they gave new arrivals some more training on the ways of this world.

People have been showing up in New bark town for a while now, right? You'd think they'd know we're not as prepared for a journey as they are.

You'd think, but...I suppose they just don't care, in that case.

..."Mom" cares, for about ten minutes. But after that we're completely on our own.

Yes, I...checked back with her, once. She seemed confused.

Confused about who you were, or confused about you contacting her?

[Because that second option would be very sad.]

The first. She seemed confused about it, and eventually just told me to keep continuing on my journey.

...I can think of a few reasons why that could be, and none of them are pleasant.

...What reasons are those?

A naturally bad memory for faces, senility, brainwashing, seeing so many 'children' go through her home that she can't even keep track of them anymore...

You're right, none of those is really pleasant!

Brainwashing seems the most likely, though.

That one might be the worst. The others would be sad but natural, but brainwashing would have to be done against her will.

I suppose there's no way of knowing, for now. And the speculation isn't exactly pleasant!

Yeah, that's true. We can speculate as much as we like, but that just means tormenting ourselves with possibilities that might never get confirmed.

Pretty much! We just have to look for more information!

That would be much easier if their government buildings were clearly marked.

This world's government is a bit curious, isn't it?

More than a bit. I know that mine put a lot more effort than that into making itself visible.

...So did mine, for that matter. I think most governments do.

At the very least, they tend to show proof that they exist.

Well, it'd be hard to remain in charge if they didn't.

...Though that doesn't seem to be a problem here, admittedly.

...You know, technically we're just assuming there's a government in charge here...
