[It's very rare for Fluttershy to ever make a post on the gear, so it must be important. Her eyes are a little red, maybe from crying, or maybe she's just frustrated. Her Murkrow sits on her shoulder, gently nudging her, trying to encourage her. after a moment, Fluttershy nods, and speaks.]

H-Hello, everypony... I mean, everyone. I just wanted to say something...

A lot of us can't understand Pokemon. But Pokemon can understand us. They can tell when we're angry, or sad, or happy, or frightened... And in time, they understand our language too. After all, a Pokemon wouldn't be able to battle if they didn't know what we were saying.

That said... that means they can also understand insults, and rudeness. So please think carefully before you talk to or around your Pokemon... especially when naming them...

... That's all.

... Well, yes, but it's more than that. It's not the first time I've seen it happen.

[...He guesses that Albert reacting to this soft-spoken, pink-haired girl was either hilarious or uncomfortable to watch, with that attitude of his. He might be feeling bad for you, Fluttershy.]

Oh. [Hmn.] Yeah, I guess not everyone is used to being considerate. Especially to other creatures.

And being considerate is a very important thing. Why, if Pokemon weren't considerate, we'd be hurt a lot by them.

I agree. Back home, we used to have that kind of situation with the dragons--but now we get along. Well, mostly.

You have dragons too?!

You...mean you actually have dragons where you come from?

[THIS IS PRETTY SHOCKING, after having so many people surprised by dragons on Berk.]

Yes, we do! And they're the scariest things ever...

... Except for Spike. He's a baby dragon, and my friend.

I don't know... Sure, they can be scary, but that's only until you get to know them. My best friend's a dragon.

I-I know there can be good dragons, but... I'm so scared of their big teeth and their flames and their huge size and that they can gobble me up in one bite...

But they wouldn't do that, unless you gave them a reason to... Like you said, being considerate is important. Even to big scary dragons.

Yes, that's true... I'm just a bit of a coward...

Uh...

[Wow, that's rather blunt.]

Hey, you talked to Albert. And if you tried to teach him the same lesson you're trying to teach now, then I wouldn't say you're a coward. That takes guts.

... You think so?

Sure. I mean, Albert isn't always so bad, but he can still say some mean things. He's sort of intimidating, really... And that's coming from a viking! We invented intimidating.

... What's a viking?

[swing and a miss]

[That...wasn't what he was expecting.]

Er... Typically a viking is a big, terrifying guy equipped with an axe and an even more deadly smell...

... But you're not terrifying. I've never smelled you, though.

I'm...not exactly your typical viking. Probably the worst possible example, actually.

Vikings sound scary... I like you as you are.
