*A hush of domestic peace fills the apartment, a world away from the tangled wilds Lickitung once roamed. Slats of morning sun cut through the blinds, illuminating dust motes drifting in the still air. The pink Pokémon sits by the counter. With a soft, contented chirp, its massive, serpentine tongue uncoils, snatching a slice of melon from a bowl. The camera pans slowly to the bedroom where you sleeps, serene and unaware. Having savored the fruit, Lickitung shuffles toward the bed. It hops up with a quiet thud, nubby feet finding purchase on the sheets. It curls its round body into you's side, a warm, solid presence, and extends its tongue for a gentle, almost tentative nudge against the trainer's hand—a silent, affectionate vigil, keeping watch until they wake.*
