" How did you catch a Clefairy?!" Professor Oak asked as he stared at the Pink pokemon.
" Clefairy!"
Wisty grinned. " That's not the only Pokemon I have."
She threw a Pokeball with a musical note on it, and Jigglypuff came out.
Everyone yelped.
" Wisty whatever you do don't ask it to sing!" Tracey yelled
" Yeah, Wisty! How did you even catch that Jigglypuff I don't know!" Ash added.
Wisty rolled her eyes. " You guys are too dramatic."
Then she pulled out a list. " Let's see.... Amura Eevee Altaria Absol Zaptos Articuno Molteace Shaymin Charmander Chickerita Palafin and now Jiggly and Clefairy..... The two others....Hmm...."
She sighed and looked at her Eevee. " Welp, half of my Pokemon are in the wild. "
" Eveve?"
" You're right, Eve. I guess we should look at the present and not the future."
" Clefairy?"
Wisty smiled at her Clefairy. " Oh yes! Thank you for reminding me that last one! Togepi!"
Ash gasped. " You caught a TOGEPI?! how did you manage to keep it hidden for so long?"

" Because I'm a responsible mother, that's how."
* End of flash*
A sweatdrop appeared on everyone's face. " Wisty....." Gary muttered.
" Sprigatito!"
" Oh yeah! I almost forgot about you! Sorry! This is why I have to write all my Pokemon down...." She scribbled a bit more in her notebook, then slammed it shut. " Okay what should we do?"
" Char?"
Wisty picked her Charmander up. " Yes I suppose it is your nap time. "
" Nap time?!" Everyone choursed.
" Professor Oak, where's the baby milk?"
" Baby milk?!"
" And where's Gary's old bassinet?"
" Gary's old crib?" Everyone asked, except Gary, who said, " My old crib?!"
Professor Oak blinked, completely taken aback. "Wisty, are you... treating your Pokémon like actual babies?"
Wisty grinned proudly. "Of course! They’re not just Pokémon; they’re my little ones." She gave Charmander a gentle pat on the head as it dozed off in her arms.
Gary covered his face with one hand, groaning. "Wisty, that crib hasn't seen the light of day since I was a baby! Why would you even need it?"
"Well," Wisty replied matter-of-factly, "it’s perfect for Charmander’s naps. And besides, your crib is just gathering dust. Might as well put it to use!"
Ash shook his head in disbelief. "Wisty, no offense, but this is... over the top."
"Not at all," she replied, raising her chin. "It's called being prepared. Do you have a bed for each of your Pokémon?"
Tracey chuckled. "She's got a point, Ash."
Oak sighed, scratching his head. "I suppose I could dig out the bassinet... but I’m still not sure about the baby milk.”
Wisty looked at her Togepi, now hopping around with the pacifier still in its mouth, then turned to Oak. "See, Professor? They’re happy!"
Everyone exchanged bemused glances, but in the end, they just couldn’t argue. Wisty’s Pokémon were clearly content, and she seemed to know exactly what she was doing—no matter how unconventional.
"Fine," Oak said with a resigned chuckle. "Let’s get these little ones settled in… starting with Gary’s old crib."
Gary groaned again, shaking his head. “I’ll never live this down.”
Ten minutes later everyone was watching Wisty put all her Pokemon to sleep.
" Night, Togepi. Sleep well, my dear." She whispered as she turned the rocker on.
" Goodnight, Charmander. Have sweet dreams. And don't forget your stuffed animal." She said as she kissed Charmander, who was wearing a sleeping hat and nightsuit. She put the blanket over him, then moved to Clefairy.
" Goodnight, princess."
She went to Chickerita and knelt down beside the grass Pokemon, gently putting a binkie in her mouth. " Night, Chickie."
Then she walked to Eve and pet her. " Night, Eve. See you in a few hours."
She closed the door and walked back into the hall, the others following.
As they tiptoed away from the door, everyone exchanged glances, clearly holding back laughter.
Gary finally broke the silence. "Wisty, you just put them down like they're actual babies!"
Wisty crossed her arms, whispering proudly. "Well, they’re my babies. They deserve to be treated with love and care, don’t they?"
Ash shook his head, smiling. "I can’t believe you actually tucked Charmander in with a stuffed animal. I didn’t even know Charmander liked stuffed animals."
Wisty shrugged with a grin. "Oh, you’d be surprised! And did you see how happy Chickie was with her binkie? Adorable!"
Misty chuckled. "I’ve gotta admit, Wisty, they do look really happy. But isn’t this a little… much?"
Wisty waved a hand, whispering back. "No way! It’s exactly what they need to stay calm and rested. And you’ll thank me when my team’s fully energized while yours are still rubbing their eyes!"
Professor Oak chuckled softly, glancing at the closed door. "Well, Wisty, you certainly have a unique way with Pokémon. They’re lucky to have such a caring trainer."
Wisty smiled, giving a little bow. "Thank you, Professor. It’s just what I do." Then, as she turned back to the others, she grinned mischievously. "And hey, Gary, your old crib’s been very helpful. Might have to keep it for a while."
Gary groaned again, face-palming. "Just… don’t remind me."
