"Probes, oh can I tell you about probes."

"Twoey," Trak shushed him. "I think that's plenty.  C'mere, give me a hug."

Twoey obeyed immediately, giving Trak and hug and laying his head against her as she put her arm around him and rubbed his shoulder. "First three years of life sucked.  Big time."

"And this magnet?" Twoey pointed to his head. "That's just part of the hardware.  See, Xerosic was trying to get me to learn Dazzling Gleam, and I couldn't.  So, he decided to try and force it into my brain.  The magnet just holds the interface device to my head.  Underneath that, I have circuits and probes implanted in my brain.  Yeah, I can interface with computers just fine, but they still couldn't force me to learn that move.  That was the final straw, and I was scheduled after that to be destroyed."

Trak nodded. "A couple other scientists smuggled him out and dumped him outside of Snowbelle.  He was a frightened, aggressive wreck when I caught him, and Wulfric helped me get to know him.  Under that rough exterior, he just wanted to be loved."

"But yeah, Xerosic... Well, there's a reason there's 'sick' at the end of his name," Twoey nodded. "One of the first things I learned was Recover and he got a lot of use out of it."

Not sure who I'll give the coupon to, as I don't want to accidentally spend it on something stupid.  I mean, I guess I could just buy a whole bunch of stuff I'll never wear, but I'd much rather hold onto it in case those "summer and autumn" lines the one guy was talking about do ever show up.

Not sure if I'll get the discount coupon...  Though, 50% off twenty or thirty Quick Balls would be nice...

"Oh man, the stories I could tell of Xerosic," Twoey said mockingly. "Wulfric can confirm some of them, since he's the one who found me outside the Pokemon Village where they dumped me.  Nice guy, by the way.  Big Teddiursa."

Trak, meanwhile, was just lightly stroking Runaway's head as he slept.  She had since recalled Susan, who was bored out of his skull.

"Might be more willing to talk now that he can remember," Trak nodded, checking on Runaway.  She looked to Twoey. "Did he tell you anything else?"

Twoey shook his head. "Gave me a quick flash of the Zoroark's family, and he was out like a light." He scratched at his head again. "Man, this thing can really itch sometimes!  But anyway, yeah, I didn't get much of a look, but they're being held somewhere.  Xerosic was mentioned.  You know that twat wanted me destroyed?  The other scientists dumped me in secret."

(Yeah, and I'm placing Twoey's age at around six or so, giving him three years with Team Flare before they dumped him.)

"If they had that Zoroark when I was still a baby," Twoey let out a low whistle. "Might want to make sure he doesn't set off any metal detectors..."

"Nothing wrong with that!" Twoey smiled, grabbed Trak's bag, fished out a Puff, and gave it to Arthur.  "But, yeah, there's a connection."

"Wily," Trak said simply.

"Team Flare, too," Twoey nodded. "Caught a brief glimpse of a baby me!"

Trak shrugged. "Honestly, I have no idea.  We were asleep and he woke up to pick a fight."

"But, we found out who was behind it, even though you probably know already," Twoey looked at the Chespin for a moment, then to Runaway, who had thankfully fallen asleep.  "Can't get much out of him right now, but when I pulled him out, I saw some things.  Familiar things, now that I think about it..."

"Hey, hey, hey, now, it was Runaway's idea," Twoey folded his arms.

Trak nodded. "He picked a fight with the Zoroark, and once that was over and done with, I had him make amends.  But, something happened, the Zoroark freaked out, and Runaway saw something in its mind and he wanted to chase it back to its source."

"I went in later to get him out, as he got lost," Twoey nodded, "but he did unlock the Zoroark's memories, and we figured out who was behind it."

Trak had gotten a very exhausted Runaway back into bed. "Impromptu battle, followed by an Alakazam mind-meld that went awry."

"Though, we figured out what was wrong with that Zoroark," Twoey pointed out helpfully.  He scratched at the top of his head, pulled up a stool, and sat beside Runaway to try and get him to talk.

(Yeah, go for it.  Feel free to join the party.  Runaway's got some intriguing info... but that will need to wait.  Though, there's always story time with Twoey! )

I got mine through Amazon, from Big Bad Toy Store.

Another option, which I use for other display items, is to look on eBay for previously-displayed figures.  As long as they're clean, in good condition, complete, and the joints are still tight, you can get a good deal for a loose figure.

I tend to go this route for action figures, busts, and vinyl displays, but I haven't tried it for articulated figures, yet.

"He was doing a psychic scan and got lost," Trak explained quickly, neglecting the details as they weren't important.

Twoey nodded. "I had to go in and get him."

Oddly enough, I haven't had a problem.

Then again, I used to make stop-motion shorts with action figures and got used to posing things that won't stand up.
