with the pokémon, but he didn’t make any claims on it;
performance anxiety maybe, wot with all the watching eyes.
-So the end result is that I have a Slowpoke to take care of now.
-Honestly, my plan is just to head to the Isle of Armor and release it
- back into the wild; I don’t have any need for another pokémon but
- mainland Galar is clearly not its correct habitat.
-I might see if Professor Magnolia has any tasks I can do there as
- well—not exactly looking forward to spending the next few months in
- Wedgehurst while everybody else is off having adventures.

+ There were still a few pokémon local to the Wedgehurst area that I
+ hadn’t yet made a pokédex record for, so I decided to try to find
+ them before setting out.
+ Purrloin wasn’t too hard to find, but Hoothoot sure is rare!
+ To give a sense for how long it took, several of the bug pokémon I
+ had under observation had already evolved by the time I found one.
+ It was several trips to the Pokémon Centre because my party just kept
+ getting worn out!
+
+ On a more positive note, while hunting through the tall grasses of
+ Route 2 I managed to befriend an incredibly shy Yamper—it fetches
+ my pokéballs for me when I miss.
+ I named it Ballecherche, which is a pun on the Kalosian _aller
+ chercher une balle_{as=i lang=fr}, meaning “to fetch a ball”.

+
+ - My preference would be for “real-world” or both.
+ Or at least to having some clear marker of different updates.
+ Just a HR between updates would also work fine.
+ btw do you have thoughts on how (if) you would like other peeps
+ to comment on the events?
+ iiii fiured this would be okay in this case given your asking a
+ question hehe
+ [][@:Rinna]{.sig}
+
+ - Yeah I definitely agree and think the only advantage to
+ in‐universe dates is if other people were also R·P·ing and
+ wanted to like, co·ordinate timeline.
+ And it’s more that like, “canonically” (wiki page forthcoming
+ eventually) _Sword & Shield_{as=cite} take place in like,
+ Summer 2019 and not late summer or early fall in 2023.
+
+ Commenting on the events is fine!
+ Just be sure to like, make it clear that it is a comment (sign
+ it, ⁊·c) so that it doesn’t get confusing to read.
+ I think there’s a feature request for using lists as threading?
+ but even without additional styling I think adding a bulleted
+ list of signed comments after each update could work.
+
+ For in‐character R·P stuff we could also add like a
+ `Hongye94/Talk` page or whatever, i suppose.
