[It's been a while since Dist last appeared on the network with a post! Well, if you're an everyday PokeWorld citizen anyway. Rockets may recall things differently.
Though the location he's in appears to be nondescript for the most part, there is quite a number of flower bouquets present on the desk that he's recording from. Roses, lilies, tulips, daisies, chrysanthemums...all different species are carefully cut and placed into vases. ...Some of those flowers even appear to be moving! A tiny, sparkling fairy Pokemon upon a magenta-colored flower is floating about the bouquets, and another fairy Pokemon resembling a flower, though about the size of the bouquets themselves, is also present.
Dist gently tilts the 'Gear toward himself so he can begin. He's actually dressed pretty casually tonight with a plain pink dress shirt and a black tie, which is incredible on its own especially since he's presenting himself to the network. ...Still fancy as heck, though.]
Good evening! Quite a lovely spread, isn't it? The flower shop at the Celadon Conservatory never fails to deliver, even in the midst of winter.
But the flowers aren't the main subject of my post today.
[He beckons to the flower Pokemon off-screen, and they quickly join him, peering at the 'Gear curiously.]
I am curious- Since we've had them for a good few months by now, has anyone attempted evolving their Kalosian Pokemon through more creative means? [He motions to the larger of the two flower Pokemon.] For example, Gardenia here is the result of presenting a Shiny Stone to a Floette. I happened to discover this by chance a few weeks ago when she got into my bag and grabbed the stone, causing herself to evolve in the process. Not that I mind that mistake- she is incredibly beautiful.
[He gives the Florges a gentle pat on the head for emphasis, putting her previous embarrassment at ease.]
This topic has always piqued my curiosity, so I would very much like to hear about more special evolutions involving the newest Pokemon to grace us with their presence. Thank you for your time!
[The two flower fairies wave cheerfully as Dist moves in to turn the feed off.]

[Shortly after Dist's video goes live, he adds a quick text for his fellow Rockets!]
I am currently in the process of reviewing the data collected on my experimental Pokemon during our raid earlier this month. I would again like to thank those of you who chose to use one of my experiments during the raid, as it helps me work out the kinks and perfect my (practically already perfect) projects.
If you have any special comments you would like to make about your experience with the experiments, do not hesitate to respond. Alternatively, anyone is welcome to express interest for participation in future trial runs. Though be warned, I am rather picky about who I choose, so you had best be competent!

That was the one I had in mind, but... eugh, no, it's not, is it? And... yes. Really, I'm glad I heard about that particular peculiarity of Froslass's evolution method before I stumbled upon it myself, as it would've been a bit... unsettling otherwise.
[...not that he'd be too torn up about it, but it's still kind of messed up.]
And that's good to know, really. I suppose it's convenient not to have the weakness to Ice and to have the full resistance to Fire, so it's not too much of an issue.

[Apparently he's pretty taken aback by the squid in a bottle comment, so he'll get to the other points in a moment here.
Kayneth please elaborate on the squid.]
[video]
You stick them in the bottle, shake it around, open it up, and they evolve.
...I suppose it's not any more or less nonsensical than just giving them some sort of stone, but it's... certainly something.
[video]
The way you're describing Inkay's evolution is via use of a bottle of unknown size in which the squid is supposed to fit. I would guess that it's the sensation of being shaken that triggers evolution, but that could easily be achieved outside of the bottle. So why is this bottle necessary...
[Things Dist did not expect to be stumped by today: a squid in a bottle.]
[video]
[trying to figure this out absolutely isn't futile at all]
[video]
Not that I find that strange, mind, considering the existence of the Dubious Disc and so on, it's simply not very common. It's intriguing, really...was this bottle even advertised? Creating an evolution is extremely pressing news!
[video]
It wouldn't surprise me if it's something that existed beforehand but was extremely difficult or impractical to use. Who even knows, though... we'll probably never get a straight answer.
[video]
[He looks annoyed about where their logic has gone.]
As if we ever get a straight answer about any anomaly in this world. Yes, I say it's more than likely.

Like extraterrestrials or... something.
