[Steven smiles. God, what a nice kid. Not really a kid, he mentally corrects himself.]

Good, [he says firmly.] I don't know all the egg groups off the top of my head, but I do know that Dittos can breed with everything. That's why every profession breeder should catch one sooner or later. But like I said, they've got them just south of the city, on Route 34. In their normal state, they kind of look like pink blobs, with little beady-eyed smiles, but they'll turn into other pokemon in a second--that's just what they do.

But, [Steven adds,] they never get the faces right. That's how you'll be able to tell that the pokemon's really a Ditto.

[ah! advice! Karamatsu quickly pulls out the notepad from his backpack and begins to write things down.

Route 34, pink blobs, beady eyes]

I wonder... could you, perhaps, draw one? It does not have to be exact.

[he'll offer the pen and notepad to Steven]

[fingersandteeth]

[And he'll draw a sketchy little Ditto, then a Misdreavous and a Woobat, each with a Ditto face.]

Here. That one's the Ditto and this is what I mean by them never getting the faces right.

[itaimatsu]

[this is great! it makes perfect sense now. Karamatsu lets out a sigh, looking very pleased]

Thank you! I shall keep my eyes peeled for this one.

[Ditto... it was so cute!]

[fingersandteeth]

Great! I hope you find one. They really are a breeder's best friend. Also, here. [And he writes down a name (Armin Arlert) and a pokegear ID number.] That's my friend Armin's number. Tell him that you're a new breeder and I recommended you ask him for advice on how to be a good one.

[itaimatsu]

[wow! Karamatsu is practically beaming]

Thank you, sir! I shall remember your good deed. Today, I may just be starting out on my journey, but, someday, you shall see a new man, a stronger man!

[and... he should probably find Osomatsu again and talk... to him...]

[fingersandteeth]

You're welcome! It was nice meeting you too, Karamatsu. Let me know when you start selling eggs and I'll buy one from you.

[But... he should probably get back to concentrating on looking at ties again. So he'll give Karamatsu a little nod and go back to examining the various ties on display.]

[itaimatsu]

[Karamatsu nods back, feeling energized once more. a Ditto, huh? he's going to find a great Ditto to help him continue on his journey. aaaa he cannot wait!

after another quick good bye, he's off again]
