[Video! Molly's sitting on a park bench in Cherrygrove, a Natu and a shiny Sentret fighting for space in her lap.]

I wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped me last time. I can't remember everyone's names, but thanks.

[There were a lot of you people. But she does appreciate it, which is why she's reaching out again.]

But ... okay, I have to ask a few things. I've heard people talk about badges, what are those?

And ... well, what are pokémon supposed to eat?

[Video tilts to show the pokémon she's concerned for, then back up to Molly's face.]

They've kind of been eating my food, but I don't know if that's good for them. But I haven't really found anything in those stores either, like bird food or ... dog food or anything like that. So if anyone could help me with that that'd be great.

[Action if anyone in Cherrygrove wants to bump into her!]

[foolishwren]

Thanks. I'm happy too.

_{[But she can sense the melancholy as well, so she adds, in a softer tone--]}

Not everybody stays here a long time like I have.

Plenty of people only stay for a bit and then they go home like nothing ever happened.

_{[It's something that always makes her throat tighten at the thought of it... but to people who are scared and have things to go back to, it's the most reassuring truth Heather can impart.]}

_{[There's a frown at that, something kind of ... upset, in that angry way, that tends to look kind of petulant in children.]}

Someone told me that. I don't get why someone would do that and make you forget.

It's mean. And unfair.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Yeah, fairness... doesn't come into play here very much.

One of the downsides.

_{[She's not gonna lie. It's MASSIVELY unfair.]}

[Video]

[walkersystem]

What are the other ones?

_{[Careful with your wording there Heather. But Molly's absolutely expecting a catch in general to this place, so she asks.]}

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Well, no reliable public transportation is another, I'd say.

_{[There's the Magnet Train but that only goes from region to region-- as fun as flying is, it can still be a pain to have to hoof it from town to town.]}

[Video]

[walkersystem]

... yeah, but you get to fly on birds.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Oh, don't get me wrong, flying is great, but in the middle of winter... Gooooootta say I'd rather take a nice heated bus, y'know?
