DAY 52 - [Text]

[babel_hacker]

Something I just learned very recently.

Ditto smell and taste like old gum, with a bit of wild nature from the grass. I wouldn't recommend trying to taste your own Dittos, however.

[There's a story behind this, of course.]

Just be careful while on the road.

Comments

[babel_hacker]

Yeah, it does.

I wonder if it's specific to their species or it's just an individual thing they each have.

[ladywithnovoice]

It may just be individualistic. Pokemon all seem to have their own personalities, even if some things seem across the board for their species.

[babel_hacker]

Yeah. It makes things more interesting and fun if Pokemon surprised you and break your expectations, if you have any from reading or hearing about them.

[ladywithnovoice]

Have you run into any other Pokemon who've done that?

[babel_hacker]

I haven't met them in person, but I knew a guy's Honedge who thinks they're a spear.

[ladywithnovoice]

...Well that's certainly new. Aren't swords and spears completely different?

[babel_hacker]

They are. While there's some swords who can thrust and naginata can slash, swords and spears are generally different.

[ladywithnovoice]

Well, I wish them the best of luck then.

You seem to know alot about swords.

[babel_hacker]

Thanks!

Only because I read a lot of different things, here and there.

[ladywithnovoice]

A bit of a renaissance man, huh?

[babel_hacker]

That's a first for me, but I guess you could say that!

[ladywithnovoice]

Hey, it sounds nice on a resume, doesn't it? A little more class than "jack of all trades".

[babel_hacker]

A jack of all trades can be useful! But most places like knowing exactly how skilled you are in your best areas.

[ladywithnovoice]

So what do you usually put down?

[babel_hacker]

Probably my competency level in IT first, plus other things related to it. It's usually more helpful to know what my general skill level are and what I can do.

[ladywithnovoice]

Computer guy... Right, right. Have you done much with it here?

[babel_hacker]

Nothing much. Just a few games for the PokeGear. I'm thinking of looking for tech support work once I'm in Goldenrod.

[ladywithnovoice]

Well, I wish you good luck with that. I'm sure there's some interesting things to work with around here.

[babel_hacker]

Thanks! Some of the basic technology here are familiar at their core, but their specifications do make things interesting. So here's hoping for a fun job!
