Carter laughed and nodded, standing in front of his desk, blocking her view of something. "My dad gave me this, and someday, I'll make another friend because of it!" He stepped aside and revealed a fat, cylindrical clear tube, with an egg the size of a basketball inside. It was dark grey with a few purple blotches. "Ta dah! It's a Pokemon egg!!" He said, grinning. "I got it from my dad, who works near Mt. Moon at a research facility. He wouldn't tell me what kind of Pokemon egg it was, but he did say it was hatch-able and that one day, I'll have a new partner! I'm gonna bring it on my journey." He picked up the tube and snapped it with straps to the front of his backpack, smiling. "What do you think?"
