[It's not Shaun that the camera catches first, but his newest pokemon - a little Pichu peering curiously into the camera.]

Move, Calvin--

[He only sounds slightly exasperated, to his credit, as he picks it up under its arms and pulls it in close.]

Uh, I need some advice.

Calvin doesn't know how to control the electricity in his cheeks yet, and he keeps zapping me and my other Pokemon. Richie and Blaze can handle it, but Susie's a water type and I'm worried he's going to hurt her real bad. It seems mean to keep him in his ball, though, just because he's too little to control his electricity... What should I do?

[Shaun is approaching Ketchum levels of being used to taking random static bursts and bouts of electricity, and he's only gotten moderately fed up with Calvin, never actually angry.]

I've been wearing him out plenty - we're in Violet City, so I'm trying to get him strong so we can beat Falkner. Isn't that right, Calvin?

[He says that with a smile and a ruffle between Calvin's ears. Calvin grins and looks up at him with a cheerful "Pi-chu!"]
