Second Step --> Video (Backdated to the morning of the 25th)

[Some people look good when they wake up. This Replica is not one of them, shown in this video with half of his hair sticking up at odd angles, but he either doesn't notice or doesn't care either way.]

I don't really get this 'Christmas' thing, but I'm assuming it's the reason my eggs have multiplied themselves.

[He turns the camera away from his face to show three Pokémon eggs sitting on top of his backpack.]

I know why one of them is there, but the other two just appeared this morni--Hey, careful with those, Nami!

[A Hoothoot has just hopped onto the backpack, jostling the eggs, and he drops the Gear on the bed to make sure she doesn't harm them.]

Purple? Neat!

Well, most Pokemon start out pretty small. But the smallest ones usually get bigger between Levels 15 and 25.

Not that you should be out in the snow unless you have proper clothes for it!

I'll try to find some. I'm going to leave town tomorrow if I can...I'll look for something before I leave.

[That gives him an incentive to level his team as fast as he can, if they get bigger as they gain levels.]

I'm serious, be sure you dress for the route, you might want some thermal blankets for your sleeping bag too if it's a far trip.

It's to Violet.

['Scuse him while he ducks offscreen to shuffle through his backpack. She can hear him shooing the Hoothoot from before away, and then he returns with a map.]

A week away, I think. I'll get something before I leave, I promise! But what's the difference between a thermal blanket and a regular blanket anyway? I've never even heard of a thermal blanket...

[Among everything else he's never heard of.]

Re: Voice

Most blankets are made of cloths, they keep the heat in but they aren't perfect at it. Thermal blankets are better at trapping heat so you don't freeze to death.

It's also a bit lighter to pack into your bag and carry.
