I was born ready, where "ready" is defined as "naked and screaming".
Leaf is super-impatient and almost childlike in some respects. Also we're already sassing her. Clearly this means that we are fast friends. Not as fast as we will be on a doduo, though.
Dunno why Silver seemed to think this was obvious, unless... @wdangoisdoduo riding an established thing?
So, basically Silver wants to practice field-tam7ng a doduo for riding, to shorten our commute into the SZ by doing the same in the field? Quite aside from isolating and suppressing one, whichwe should be able to do, we really need to find out what his plan is, if any, for making riding actually happen.
Okay, at leastthe stakes of failure here are pretty low, unless we, say, injure ourselves trying to ride an angry deathbirb.
We certainky plan
ned to do so, but then people voted to get one outside the SZ, where a strong oddish is a rare oddish and an old oddish, meaning going for a strong oddish will be harder and much more likeoy to result in it dying before evolving.
Going for a weaker oddish and getting a good relationship for good scent control is probably going to be the way forwards.
Oh, also, we need to research vileplume and bellossom, as oddishnchoice now might affect later evolution prospects.
It would be difficult and risku,but maaaaaaaybe?
No children involved, but military materiel is closely monitored. Pokeballs break in the field, though, and bringing back the scraps is probably not expected.
minus the child bit. They're just soldiers. Or cadets right now.
I think we need to plan and coordinate before running off half-cocked (or 1/3 cocked as we are on average
) We need to know what Silver and Leaf know, and what they are actually planning. I don't care if it takes us a time unit, it should increase our odds and decrease our risks.
[X] Call a planning session, preferably before we get into the field:
-[X] We need to know if either of them has any specific knowledge of Doduo and dodrio, and pool any knowledge you have.
-[X] Find out how Silver was planning to induce compliance in the douo, and whether any precedents for it exist.
-[X] Find out what his basic plan was, and help refine it in light of everyone's pooled knowledge and skills.
If we want to genuinely start working with silver, we havetostartproperly communicating, and moving away from the paradigm of him just doing stufffor us and us reacting.
to this.
