[It's a lovely afternoon in the National Park. Trainers and Pokemon alike can be seen running, playing, battling, and basically having a grand old time in the warm summer sun. It's great stroll in the park or picnic weather!

Dist is getting in on both of those things. He's currently sitting on a park bench beneath the shade of a large tree, watching several of his Pokemon play in the grass across the walking path. He's recording this, so what can be seen on the 'Gear's feed is a Lilligant, a Vileplume, and a tiny Gothita all doing a Teeter Dance orchestrated by the Lilligant. After a few moments, the Vileplume and Gothita trip over themselves and fall, but judging from their laughing, they're having a good time.

When Dist turns the 'Gear around to face him, he's just shaking his head, smirking all the while. He's opted for sunglasses and casual dress clothes today. Even his Roserade sitting beside him has sunglasses. How classy.]

You know, I didn't realize it until recently, but my team has quite a few stunningly beautiful Pokemon on it. I didn't intend for that to happen, but I am most definitely not complaining! Have any of you noticed a trend amongst your teams? A common type, or feature?

I like to think that these trends say something about us. We all know that the Gym Leaders have their favored types, and their personalities often match those type preferences. By that logic, it's obvious why I have so many beautiful Pokemon on my team.

[...The narcissism is out in full force today, apparently.]

If you don't have an answer to my first question, perhaps this one will be more relevant for you: what do you consider to be the most beautiful Pokemon? Visual examples are not necessary but highly encouraged. I am looking for future team members, and it wouldn't hurt to have some inspiration!

As for my vote? Nothing matches the beauty and grace of Roserade and its evolutionary line.

[The Roserade beside him smiles brightly. Way to lay on the compliments, Dist.]

I look forward to your responses!
