[As a Meiji era child, keeping on top of all the latest devices can be a bit of a whirlwind. It's an exciting one, though, always getting to learn something new! But for the next iteration of video calls to be.. a magical pearl...
Something feels backwards.
Rather,
Establishing a connection comes too easily the moment Akira thinks of it. Why wouldn't it? It's his own vision at first, a mess of tablets on types, moves and status effects, before he closes his eyes to seamlessly transfer to the grumpearl's perspective. Its holder is revealed to be a Slowking, the one previously bound to the clinic using his newly attained guild status to scour the archives instead. As he reopens his eyes with the view unchanged, he laughs.]
Sorryyy, force of habit.
[Sharing his own sight, and all.]
Anyway!
It seems our bodies are designed for combat, but I'm not really a fan of fighting, myself. So I've been researching Status moves instead.
A lot of them are pretty straightforward, right? Like inflicting and curing basic conditions, or boosting and suppressing our innate strengths. I'm not talking about those. More specifically, I've been learning about Terrains-- large scale effects that benefit friend and foe alike, and seem to have preventative capabilities. It sounds like some Pokemon even form these fields without thinking about it.
[So... On to the point. He soon looks determined.]
Does anyone have one? Can you show me how it works? I'm afraid I'm not strong enough yet to use one myself.
[Or to those more perceptive, maybe Psychic Terrain just isn't what he's searching for.]

by "tone" i mean the extra "i"s in "niiice" and how that wouldve sounded
What I meant was not about people who shall not take help- it was about the Pokemon with those abilities getting to take time off.
Also! I have no clue who you are! Aside from what you have shared so far!

Sorry, sorry. I'm Takahashi Akira. I suppose whether I was famous or not doesn't matter since you're a ghost-- our world had all sorts of terrible laws limiting how humans and youkai could interact.
But now that we're all the same, those laws don't exist. Isn't that great? That's why I couldn't help getting excited thinking about all the cute new patients I'd get to meet! Well, it was theoretical anyway. Most animal types are already adapted to living outdoors, and won't have to worry about those conditions. The comforts of a human lifestyle are a choice they should have every right to, but they can do more harm than good if they're forced, so I'm afraid I'll have to put their long term health above a few conveniences until I've learnt more. That means only making as much as we'll use ourselves, for now. Promiise?

Even animals can benefit from advanced technology! Their long term health will be assisted by my devices, not hindered. You cannot stop me! I, Technus, will advance this world beyond their wildest dreams!

[But the guild leaders probably can. And while they're at it,]
Have you decided where you'll get the materials? After some reading, it seems that steel might be a naturally occurring resource. [Which isn't possible by normal means. He's sure the other knows this.] Do you plan to harvest it?
no subject
Although it's probably more of an answer than not doing anything would be.]
