A Day with Larry

While walking around town, Scottie spotted Larry, who had a bit of a spring to his step.

...Oh, it's you.

Are you on your lunch break too? I just ate at a nice restaurant.

The price was reasonable, and the waiter even gave me something on the house.

Pasio is actually an excellent place. There are a lot of great restaurants, you know.

Yes. At first, I was under the impression that Pasio was just a tourist spot, but I have to say I'm impressed.

The trick is to look for the small restaurants where employees eat, not the famous places that target tourists.

I do, huh?

I suppose I am in a bit of a good mood, now that I've found a great place to get lunch.

Hm, I still have some time before my break is over...

If you're not going anywhere, is there anything you'd like to talk about with me?

Interested in my partner Pokémon? Sure, I can give you a quick presentation...

I suppose so... He stands out, doesn't he?

Well then, would you like to learn about Dudunsparce?

Dudunsparce has multiple forms.

Officially, they're called Two-Segment Form and Three-Segment Form.

Mine is a Two-Segment Form Dudunsparce.

Three-Segment Form Dudunsparce is rarer and harder to find.

But personally, I appreciate the Two-Segment Form. It has its own charm.

It puts me more at ease than something exceptional... I'm just an average, everyday joe, after all.

If the only special treatment I get is a restaurant giving me a free side, that's enough for me.

... ... ...

If Two-Segment Form is called Dudunsparce, shouldn't Three-Segment Form be called Dududunsparce?

Never mind. Just a thought.

Which do you like better? Two-Segment Form or Three-Segment Form? Average or exceptional?

Is that so? You and I have similar tastes, then.

I see... You know, my boss said the same thing.

I think have a better idea of your preferences now.

I think people expect you to be exceptional, whether you're trying to be or not.

I can tell. You're the kind of person who's capable of excelling at many things.

...I don't think I could handle being like that.

Simplicity is best, at work and in life.

Oh. Thank you for the reminder, Dudunsparce.

That boss of mine will give me an earful if she catches me returning to work late again.

I suppose I should head back. I'll see you around.

...One of these days, let's get a bite to eat together.
