008 | Saffron City | Video;
[Ladies and gentlemen of Johto and Kanto, something rather odd is afoot on your network today. Upon closer inspection, it appears to be the ceiling of some kind of garage-like room, rendered in video and slo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-owly moving past at a glacial — yet determined — pace. In fact, it's probably what the ceiling would look like if a Gear camera was pointed at it while that aforementioned Gear was being stolen by a pair of Shuckles.
Which, as a matter of fact, is exactly what's happening.
Unfortunately for these criminal masterminds, their getaway is moving at approximately the speed of molasses left out on a park bench in Siberia, so more likely than not they're going to be noticed before anything productive comes of it.]
Well, you look like you check out, pal...
[—and apparently Albert is somewhere in the vicinity, too, given the proximity of his voice as, presumably unbeknownst to him, his Gear goes Shuckling across the floor.]
No obvious growths, no changes in teeth or coat, eyes still look bright, appetite's good...
[The purple head and glittering diamond eyes of a Sableye creep into view on the camera now, disrupting the slow-moving shot of the ceiling, and a minute later things go dark as two little clawed hands close over the lens and Gear.]
Huh. Doesn't look like there's an upper limit to these things after all. Never mind the fact that education of yours just cost as much as grad school, if not — what're you doing, Impy? Don't play with that. Just leave it there, it's fine.
[The darkness recedes, and now the Gear is on its side on a lab table — one currently covered in the pieces of fifteen broken TMs — and Albert is visible next to it. He's wearing his lab coat and gloves as usual, and is holding a Buneary who is rather nonchalantly nibbling at a piece of lettuce.
Albert continues his inspection of the Buneary another few moments, then checks his watch and heads out of sight, still carrying the Pokemon in his arms.]
Sweep and Scrappy can take care of the mess. Let's get you back in the cage, Bruce.
[And on that note, purple hands descend again, and after a few buttons click, the Gear switches off.]

Have you ever spent time around a rabbit? They eat everything. I don't want him to eat through it and suddenly decide to go be a free-ranging crime against humanity instead.
[video]
[Hey, at least the bunny can't fly. That would make the situation infinitely worse.]
[video]
I get the feeling if a dragon tries to make a quick exit, it's pretty likely you're gonna see where it's going as it runs.
[video]
Depends how fast it's going. The Gronckle and the Zippleback--yeah, you'll probably notice them leaving. A Night Fury would be harder. [DANG, some of those dragons are speedy.] And Terrible Terrors are small enough to get away quietly, if they want.
[video]
[video]
--But! The point is that I am good with dragons, and since Bruce is apparently a dragon a heart in your worst-case scenario, I should be good with Bruce!
Besides, he looks harmless. Even if he's able to summon lightning, it doesn't mean he will.
[video]
You want to take him out, then right now he stays in the house. We'll reevaluate after we see how this new education affects him, if at all.
[video]
He can tell he's been defeated, though. Dang.] Fine, fine. House-only for now. But if he gets bored and breaks something, it's not my fault.
[video]
Or you could watch him and head him off at the pass before he tries, how about that?
[video]
You're no fun.
