I have a very important task for those who think themselves worthy to undertake it! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

In my party, there are several pokémon that need stones to evolve. It looks like I need a Shiny Stone and a Sun Stone for absolute certain! The problem is... I'm not anywhere near a department store to pick one up. o(╥﹏╥)o

It would really help me out if someone could purchase said stones and send them my way! I'd even pay you for it. You can't be that, right???? d=(´▽｀)=b

Actually, I need a third stone too, but I'm not sure which one I want. I had an Eevee that just recently hatched and I'd like some opinions on what to evolve him into. Before there were only three choices, but now there are just so many! How can I even choose!?!? ∑(;°Д°)

There are seven choices that your Eevee could potentially evolve into; they all have their merits and, ah...detriments. But I'd suggest it's more the personality of the Eevee that makes the difference, as opposed to the evolution.

Personality of the Eevee?

[usedlaserbeam]

I assume it has one. Have you spent any time with it at all?

text;

[onelevelnicer]

A day or two. That's why I'm only asking for opinions at the moment.

[usedlaserbeam]

In that case, I'll put to you an analogy: suppose it were a person you were contemplating, instead of an Eevee. Determining its future and ultimate destiny before it had a chance to explore its own strengths and interests seems somewhat unfair, doesn't it?

Of course, most of mine have been reasonably strong-willed about the evolutions they wanted, so it may be that my basis of experience is somewhat biased.

[onelevelnicer]

No, no. What you said makes sense, now that I think about it. (^～^;)ゞ

I guess I could wait and show him some pictures at a later date.

The other thing to take note of is that there are two ways for an Eevee to evolve — through the use of a stone, as you mentioned, or of their own volition. Five of the evolutions are by stone; that's Fire, Water, Electric, Grass, and Ice. The other two, Psychic and Dark, occur naturally through happiness.

So if you wait long enough, you might discover the decision made for you.

text; that moment I almost Karkat text

[onelevelnicer]

Yeah... That waiting thing isn't something I'm all too great at. ┐(‘～`；)┌

The wait alone for my Feebas is killing me.

text; cannot unsee future Karkat and past Karkat as Hikaru and Kaoru now

[usedlaserbeam]

If you choose a stone evolution, you could evolve it right now, frankly. The other way tends to take a few months.

How long have you been waiting on your Feebas?

text; ...now i'm seeing it. thanks.

[onelevelnicer]

Haruhi hatched a little over a month ago. I've been doing my best to sneak an extra treat or keep the tub full enough for her to splash in.

text; it's the "which one is red-text CG" gaaaaaaaame~

[usedlaserbeam]

I'd expect another month or so of waiting, then, unfortunately. These things do take time.

text; adfasdf stop it. you're killing meeeee

[onelevelnicer]

Another month!? Σ(゜ロ゜;)

text; the crossover no one ever wanted

[usedlaserbeam]

At least. And that's assuming you treat her exceedingly well the whole time.

text; and yet it's horribly amusing

[onelevelnicer]

I feel a little offended by that. Every lady is a princess and should be treated as such. (¬､¬)

text; ~~kiss kiss fall in matespritdom~~

[usedlaserbeam]

Speaking as someone in possession of an Espeon by the name of Lady for whom that rings altogether true:

Believe me, I know.

text; nope. dead. officially dead

[onelevelnicer]

Maybe she should have been named Princess instead.

text; 8D

[usedlaserbeam]

She could've been, frankly. But she takes her name from a certain nickname of my own, actually — and was given it by a teammate of mine, so she and I both have our reasons for being fond of it.

text; you win o9

[onelevelnicer]

...

You were called "Lady?" ఠ_ఠ

text;

[usedlaserbeam]

I was called "The Gentleman".

text;

[onelevelnicer]

(￣ω￣;)

That's better. Though I wasn't going to judge if you were called "The Lady" instead!

text;

[usedlaserbeam]

How considerate of you.

Suffice to say, we make quite the inseparable pair these days. As it should be, I suppose.

text;

[onelevelnicer]

Is she your starter?

text;

[usedlaserbeam]

No, of course not.

[Fun fact: Yagyuu has nothing but disdain for his starter, because team members with inferiority complexes tend to be better fighters.]

She is the first Pokemon I ever bred, though. As a Breeder, I'd say that's an equally significant title to hold.

So it's a special father and daughter bond. I see!
