[Jimmy's looking a lot better than he did last time he was broadcasting. He's sitting on a couch, and it doesn't look like he's been hitting the sauce.]

So...how does a guy who's never had a real job get himself a real job?

I don't need nothing fancy, just something that pays at the end of the week, you know? I can haul boxes or sweep a floor, I know options aren't great for a guy with no education and no normal work experience.

[But he's not going to be some moocher, he's gonna pay rent and buy food and be able to get things fixed when they broke. All that kinda stuff a guy ought to do.]

But everybody's always telling me how that doesn't matter here, so I figure there's gotta be options!

Yeah. I don't really like cashiering. I'd rather draw, but I can't get much money from selling my drawings.

[And it's not like he can publish a book or something.]

Splitting rent sounds like a good plan, though. Do you split chores, too?

They do, but with the amount of time it takes to make a good drawing and the amount of money I'd charge for it, it doesn't work out to a good hourly rate. I want to get better at drawing before I feel okay charging more - I've only had fingers back for a few months, after all.

If you ever want to hang out or need some help with stuff, just let me know.

Yeah, I'm thinking about it.

... I read a lot. I practice my show a lot too, and even when I'm not practicing I usually take Regal out for at least an hour's flight once a day unless the weather's bad. Sometimes I explore the city or the areas just outside of it. I want to get to Cianwood at some point soon, but not until the show's over for the month. But I like exploring.

Yeah. And I like just... being in nature. I mean, I track the patterns of the Pokemon I see, especially the birds. I haven't seen them migrate here like they do at home which is really weird. Sometimes I'll just sit and watch them. At home I used to watch the field I lived near for hours.

... Being a bird teaches you a lot about patience, really. I don't need to be on the go all the time. Though I do need to get to Cianwood to battle Chuck.
