[The message feels so nerdy (not to mention kind of sappy) that Louie has been back and forth on reaching out for a while. But, toward the end of February, Misaki will receive a few photos of a Floragato - mostly just lounging around, but in a few cases they are mid-action shots of him chasing a Tatsugiri, running away from said Tatsugiri now stationed atop an Inkay, and sparring with a Hisuian Sneasel. They are all attached to a text:]
Hey, it's Louie. Sorry for just sending this out of the blue, but Emerald - the Sprigatito from that egg - evolved a little while back. I thought you might want to see? He's a lot of fun to have on the team, so thanks again. How's yours doing?
Oh! [To say Louie seems excited when he sees the final evolution of Sprigatito might be an understatement. There's a level of showiness there that isn't his kind of thing, but in a feline he truly finds delightful.] Hey, wow, look at you, Sei!
Very nice. Baal's your starter, right? The Perrserker? [He at least knows her starter has evolved, he saw him the video where he was throwing around Geodude earlier in the year.] Oh, that reminds me... I got my Alolan Persian back. Next time I bring him along, I can show you.
Yeah, I got him back. I guess it happens this way sometimes here, but I was back home for a while. It's all kind of fuz--
Oh, hey Baal. [He snickers.] Anyway, a lot of my Pokemon ended up with my friends when I was gone, but some of them were at this ranch in Kanto. I was able to take them with me when I got out that way.
I-- I didn't think they'd be there, honestly. I thought maybe they'd ended up with some of the people I knew who also went home.

Sei has reached her final evolution. She's quite proud of it.
[Not that a text conveys tone, but for once, Misaki genuinely does mean that. She's thrilled to see this little monster.
Moments later, a video message arrives--Sei decided she could not be properly captured in all her beauty unless it was through video.]

Re: [video]
She's been very proud of herself. And with good reason...she's just as powerful as Baal, perhaps even moreso.

[She nods, and Baal pops into the frame. Just. Just his eyes.]
He is the one I was given upon arrival, yes. Though frankly, I received Sei's egg not much long after.

[She sighs a little, but she'll give Baal some scritches while he's here.]
I am sure they're glad to see you again.
