[The sound of...something moving, abruptly. A smack. Being kicked? Followed by the splash of water.]

Zrrr...

I know what I'm doing, Shadow. Shut up.

[The next minute is mostly the sound of water rebounding, Magikarp flailing, and Shadow's tiny growls of concentration. Eventually, the noise dims in favor of--]

I see.. well, I wish you luck on getting everyone prepared!

Well, she's a fish! [A beat.] Was a fish. What else was I supposed to call her? 'Dog'?

You are supposed to give her a real name! [HUFFPUFFS OUT A SIGH.] I have an Audino I named Anise, and my Wartortle is named Asbel. Those are names. "Fish" is not a name.
