17th treasure [video]

[Ah, such a lovely day this is. Seriously, it has everything needed for perfection: a wobbly video feed, a fluffy lime green afro taking up most of said feed, a Relicanth swiftly swimming away from said afro, and an original score -crashing waves, Eevee screams, the shouts of a hundred furious souls- that matches the action perfectly.]

Look at that fish go-

[For a man who has to deal with an Eevee screaming in his ear and digging his claws in his shoulder, Ash sounds much too gleeful. The image starts to turn around, shaking even more as it moves.]

-and look at those turtles follow!

[Ash also sounds much too cheerful for a man being pursued by dozens of angry Tirtougas. He might even sound like he's laughing.

...He is laughing. Oh hell.]

Looks like they're gaining on us. Afrodite, show them what we can do!

[Not that anyone else will get to see what exactly that is, because Evo chooses that moment to try and get away from this madness, hitting the Gear in the process.]

That wouldn't work. Pokémon from half the types would be impossible to market and sell. I mean, who would drink anything named after a Poison-type?

Have you heard the names of cocktails people actually drink? I could easily see those attracting young, stupid daredevil sorts.

...Of course they would. It's not as if they could kill anyone anyway.

Precisely.

In any case, there are enough Pokemon representing more palatable types that it wouldn't be terribly difficult to make it a marketable gimmick.

...I'd like to see them market Onix or Magnezone, just to see if it can be done.

Yes, that would be interesting. There's no guarantee they'd be good, of course, but I'd like to see someone attempt it.

An attempt from someone who knows what they're doing would be even better, but that might be asking for too much.

There's no way we could get that lucky, unfortunately.
