Is selling Pokémon legal, in this time and place? Even Pokémon as special as Shaymin? These poor creatures certainly don't look happy, and that seems at odds with the way most people in Ultern seem to treat their Pokémon.

He is very uncomfortable. But his mouth is already dry at the thought of starting a confrontation over something that might be a misunderstanding. Maybe if he could just buy rescue one of the Shaymin, he might feel better.]
Um...would you sell one for...this much?
[He takes out what little money he's carrying. It's not even half the asking price.]
