[Scout is not entirely sure how to address the carnival like this, so there's a self-conscious sense to her voice.]

They're breeding, so we should probably get this done. If you brought an animal home from Alola, come share what it is so we know if there's any likelihood of it pairing off. Pokemon aren't speciated like normal animals. There are these broad categories they fit into where they can interbreed. This will result in an egg that will be like its mother, not a hybrid or something new.

I'm Scout, I have a togetic named Thranta. She'd be in two breeding groups, "flying" and "fairy", so she's compatible with anything in either of those if the sexes match. Right now I don't think she's that interested, but if I let her progress into her next instar maybe that'd change?

I can't tell you don't go out and encourage them, but you really should be careful and consider if you can handle a second or third animal. This isn't Alola and you can't just release them if you're tired of them.

Pokemon are pretty weird....ah!

B-But you know, maybe we could find some way to use magic to keep them from reproducing too??

There has to be something more than supervision...

Or medicine? Contraceptive things? This isn't really my field. But you're right, there should be something.

[And then all of the Pokemon were turned into sterile Witchers.]

I know ribbons and things for them to hold were supposed to have affects on their battling and I think some of them had breeding effects. Wish I'd studied this more, but it's not like we were in Alola long.

I mean, I studied everything I could, and there just doesn't seem to be a way to stop it without being right there for them..!!! And pokemon teams would be separated with pokeballs so...

A lot of the time, but then they'd have them all out to eat or play... Maybe being put to work a lot makes them less inclined? We could set up exercise regimens.

Hmnnn, maybe.... ...Or maybe they have to spend A LOT of time alone..!

Or just with ones they're not compatible to breed with? And with other animals and people, I guess.

I know some of them are happy alone but it seems harsh to force them all to be almost solitary.

W-Well, like you said, supervision should do it right?? So they don't have to be...totally isolated...

Right.

Zecora's going to try contraceptive potions. What do you think? Could it work?

Contraceptives???

I...I mean, maybe??? It's worth trying???

I think so?

She wants more people to send their pokemon over before she makes things. That should make it so it won't just poison other types, shouldn't it?

It should... ...Maybe someone who was scouting through Alola should work with her though, just to be sure of everything.

Probably. There aren't a whole lot of us left, are there?

Mnnh, not really...I'll see about rounding up my notes though...
