004 | Sit, Stay, Heel?
[ And this video opens to the wide eyes of an eager houndour pup staring up at the screen. ]
Alright, that's it. Good boy. Stay right there.
[ As if on cue, the Houndour sits down with its eyes still glued to the screen. ]
Let's show everyone what you can do then, alright? Up you get!
[ At the command, the houndour sits up with his tail wagging furiously. ]
Good boy! Brilliant! Now the last bit... here you are. Steady as she goes then.
[ At this, Ronald places what seems to be the corner off a pokepuff on the Houndour's nose. The pokemon seems to balance it for a moment before turning his head and snapping it up for himself.... much to his trainer's disappointment. ]
Ah, blimey... Barkley, you were supposed to wait til I said you could eat it!
[ But he settles down beside the houndour, moving the Gear back to face him. ]
Gundam! Here's the pup I bought from you a while back! He's a smart little blighter... got a mind of his own sometimes though.
But... bit of a question. D'you lot know any other tricks I could teach him? Never actually had a dog before and those're a bit different'n the tricks I've taught Grim and the rest to help with my act.

Alright, mate. Let's give it a go. Wager this should come in handy somewhere down the road.
[ He's just gonna push Barkley's butt down to make him sit before holding his hand up. ]
Right. Barkley, stay.
[ And he's holding up both hands, taking one step back at a time. Barkley seems to be doing well, tilting his head with his tail wagging as he continues to remain where he was made to sit. ]
Steady, boy... stay.... st- aw buggering hell, Barkley!
[ The moment Ronald is four steps away, the Houndour gets up and waddles its way over. ]
Looks like he's got the basics down though.
[action]
Well... It's a start?
[Denzel pauses for a moment]
Did you want to see a few more that you could work on?
[action]
Yeah, it's a start. We'll work on it while we travel, I suppose! But yeah, sure! You could toss us a few more'n maybe I could fix us a drink or two to shake off the cold after, what d'you say?
[action]
Alright, Geraldine. Roll over. Beg. Play dead.
[All of which the Pokemon obeys and is rewarded afterwards. Growlithe looks over at Barkley and gives a bark, she believes in Barkley!]
Oh! I'll take my coffee without any cream or sugar.
