Hey, who's been to Mt. Mortar?

Any advice for a coupe of guys headed that way to catch some Pokemon?

[After looking into it, it looks like that's their best bet. And it's not even really far away. But he's got no idea what they're headed into, and considering he's taking a kid with him, he figures he ought to ask about his current selected destination.]

And, uh, any advice on catching Pokemon in general. I never done it before.

That depends on what kind of Pokemon you're looking for.

But as for catching a Pokemon, that much is simple; you weaken it by engaging it in a battle, and once it's weak enough you can try to capture it. Status afflicting moves such as Toxic or Thunder Wave make it easier, as well.

For catchin' Pokemon, intimidation is key!

Promise to be careful, okay?

Someone will already tell you about battling, but you can actually talk a lot of pokemon to coming with you without fighting if you're lucky.

I hear about people getting lost as hell there now and then. Keep your eyes open and be careful.

For catching Pokemon, you just weaken them in battle first before catching them. Using status effects like sleep or paralysis helped a lot, since it'd make it harder for them to resist.

[Ah yes, here's Envy, the guy who last time Jimmy saw him spent half of the circus dinner having a mutual glaring contest with Wrath.]

I'm sure people are already telling you about battling them and throwing balls, but you know how I always seem to wind up with new Pokemon? They just decide to follow me until I keep them.

Whatever you're after, just act like you're not interested and you'll be covered in them.
