Thirty-Eighth Flame - [Voice/Action]

[gogglesyndrome]

Hey, all of you guys who know how to actually use a sword! Anybody up for a sparring match? I need to get better with this thing eventually.

Haruhi, the spirits are still ignoring me so I give up. For those of you who are good at that sort of thing, how'd you get them to really talk to you? The only one who really listens to me is Nala...she's nice, and healing magic helps, but I want to learn more anyway.

Man, nearly two years in this place and I still can't get it.

[He's going to leave his journal open, but in between responses, he'll be going over some training movements with the sword he's acquired. Jack Sparrow has taught him well...and Sparrow's taught him some other things, too.]

You bet! We train almost every day! I wouldn't be surprised if one of 'em evolved soon!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Can all three of them still evolve?

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Yep! I don't need to use a stone or anythin' either!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Do they stay that way after they evolve?

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Yeah, evolution doesn't go backwards, you know.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

When our Digimon digivolve, they can devolve back to their lower levels.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Whoa, really? That's kinda weird but kinda awesome too!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

They never get stuck! It's kind of what makes them special.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Definitely cool, but you know, my Pokemon are still themselves even if they evolve.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

The only thing that changes are their powers, right?

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Well, kinda. Sure, evolution makes a Pokemon stronger, but a lot of times they still have a lot of the same moves that they did before evolvin'. Also, a Pokemon can still get super strong without evolvin'. Some even don't evolve at all!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

The Pokemon sound kind of confusing compared to the Digimon, but I think I get what you mean. That's kind of awesome.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

You bet! Bein' a Pokemon Trainer's the best thing ever!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

I don't know about that. I kinda like being a Chosen.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

But there's only a few of you Chosen, right?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Well yeah, that's why we're Chosen.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but there's tons of different trainers! I've made so many great battlin' friends!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

I guess later in the future we meet Chosen from all over the world, but that's only according to Daisuke.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

Oh. That's pretty cool then! Do they all have different Digimon?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

You bet! Everybody only has one Digimon partner, but they're all different because they're all born waiting for their special partner.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

That's cool! I wonder if I had one, what they would be...

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Our partners tend to be a little bit like us. Like me and Agumon? We're both really enthusiastic about getting the job done.

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

I bet my partner would be just like Pikachu then!

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Maybe! I'm trying to think what kind of Digimon is like Pikachu...what's Pikachu like?

[idkmybffpika.livejournal.com]

He's an electric type that's not too big, but packs a huge punch!
