[The video clicks on, and there is... well. There's a Rufflet and an Ursaring in colorful party hats.]

[In an inn room. He finally sprung for one tonight, yeah. Tobias turns the camera around and grins, though it's a little bit of a crooked grin. His last birthday... didn't go so well. Or was that the birthday before? The last birthday he paid attention to the date on, at least. Anyway.]

What kind of stuff do you guys do for your birthday where you're from? I never really did much for mine, so I decided to get a room for the night. It's kind of nice here, though it's sort of expensive...

[... He's probably going to go back to sleeping outside tomorrow night. Oh well.]

... Maybe we'll go out to eat or somethi -

[Aaand the Ursaring tackles him, and Tobias is left flailing under a pile of brown fur.]

Rachel! You're too big now! Get off!

[The Ursaring just laughs and Tobias crawls out from under her, turning the video off as her party hat falls and bonks him on the head.]

I dunno, actually! I've never really had a birthday before that I can remember...

[Mostly because he doesn't even...know when his birthday is.]

Happy Birthday though, Tobias! The hotels around here are always really great.

[video]

[wing_attack]

Do you not remember your birthday?

[It's not like he remembered his until someone... reminded him...]

Yeah, they're pretty nice. The bed feels too squishy, though - like I'm sleeping on a marshmallow.

[video]

[awesmazings]

[He shakes his head a little.]

Nope! Not really. I mean, I guess I have one...but I dunno exactly when it is.

Haha, I know what you mean. Kinda weird after camping out on the Routes every night!

[video]

[wing_attack]

Well... until you figure it out, why don't you pick one?

[video]

[awesmazings]

That's what Joker said to do! I think I might make my birthday just be the time I showed up here...which was sometime in February!

Though maybe not the same day...Just so they can be a little different.

[video]

[wing_attack]

That sounds good to me. I'll try to remember.

[A shadow falls over Tobias, and he ducks out of the way again before leaning against a mound of brown fur.]

[video]

[awesmazings]

[Jimmy can't help but grin at that.]

Who's your friend, there?

[video]

[wing_attack]

Rachel. She's the one who used to be a Teddiursa. Now...

[He turns the camera so Jimmy can see the Ursaring flopped on the floor. His Rufflet is sitting on her head, chirping. He turns the camera back and grins.]

[video]

[awesmazings]

Oh cool, she evolved! Looks like she's real happy to be with you.

[video]

[wing_attack]

I think so. I think she also is trying to pay me back for picking her up so much before she evolved.

Saaaa~.

[That's probably a yes.]

[video]

[awesmazings]

Haha, she's so big she can pick you up now, if she wants!

[Jimmy, don't give her ideas.]

[video]

[wing_attack]

She is. She's already tried it.

Blii?

[Volts the Blitzle peers down at the camera.]

... Sure. Why not. It's a party.

[A very cramped party.]

[video]

[awesmazings]

[A very cramped party that you deserve, Tobias. Enjoy it.]

Aw, everybody wants to celebrate with you, Tobias!

[video]

[wing_attack]

[No why -]

This is the first time I've celebrated my birthday in... a while. So I'm not really sure what to do.

[video]

[awesmazings]

Well...is there something you really want to do? If so, do that!

[video]

[wing_attack]

Well... none of my Pokemon can fly yet. But hopefully they will soon.

[video]

[awesmazings]

Don't worry, they will! Do you like to fly?

[video]

[wing_attack]

Yeah. I really like being out in the air... it's not really like anything else.

[He admits nothiiiiiiing.]

[video]

[awesmazings]

I've always wanted to fly! So getting to actually do it has been probably the coolest thing ever.

[video]

[wing_attack]

Yeah...

[Regal flutters over to him and he grins.]

I bet you'll grow up soon, right?

[Regal tilts his head. He has no idea.]

[bertall]

Whatever you do, don't get this stuff called vodka. I asked a question like that last year for mine and it was the worst decision I've ever made.

video;

[wing_attack]

... I'm not planning on getting alcohol, no.

[video]

[awesmazings]

No doubt he will!

[video]

[sincereheart]

Tobias-san! [ Mimi looks concerned. ] What do you mean, you decided to get a room for your birthday? Have you been sleeping outside this whole time? Tobias-san, that's not good for you, you know!

Oh - happy birthday, though! I'm sorry I didn't get you anything! Is there anything you'd like? [ Not that she has too much money... because she spends it all on hotel rooms. ]

[video]

[wing_attack]

And then we can fly. Maybe on his back, too...

[He misses flying a lot, and Regal nuzzles into him. He knows. He'll do his best!]
