[ Right square in the middle of Cherrygrove City, Snake is staring down his Torkoal, Boss, who appears to have... something... in his mouth. It looks square-shaped, and it's glimmering somewhat in the sunlight. The old soldier takes a hesitant step forward. ]

C'mon, Boss... Don't do this.

[ Boss clamps his mouth tighter around the object, causing Snake to freeze up. ] No, don't! [ Aaand... gulp. The mysterious box is gone forever, swallowed by the large fire-tortoise. ]

....

[ Snake pulls out his Pokégear, creating a video post. ]

[ VIDEO ]

[ He looks a bit... nervous. ] Hey, uh... Say, hypothetically, that a Pokémon swallowed a ... hypothetical pack of cigarettes. Would that... hypothetical Pokémon be harmed in any way?

... Hypothetically.

Aww, that's adorable! Well, horrible, but in an adorable way.

Have you considered not keeping things bad for pokés where he can get to them? Like, maybe keep your cigs on you or stop smoking, for one.

I've considered stopping smoking.

[ Only because here he can actually live past a year. ]

Maybe I'll try it. Maybe. [ He still enjoyed a smoke in the morning. ]

Maybe is always a good start. I know a thing or two about quitting bad habits.

Never really had my health to worry about until now I guess. [ And even then, he's not sure if people can actually die here... ]

Thanks for chipping in anyway. I'll keep your advice in mind. [ Maybe. ]

Were you, like, immortal and stuff before? [ Obvious logical conclusion. ]

Sure, anytime! Just call me Advice Master Roxy. [ pause ] Actually, don't, that sounds dumb.
