I'm Half Sick of Shadows

[This lady is leaning against...something. She's on a ferry, the wind whipping her hair and she doesn't seem to really care at all.]

Since my companion and I are nearing Pallet Town's docks, I thought I'd pose a question to you all.

[Dramatic pause? No, not really. It doesn't really deserve "dramatic."]

What bars or pubs should be recommended for a visit, and what should be avoided? I'm starting to think my companion, no names being mentioned, may be in more need of a stiff drink than I am. Not to mention I'm banking a bit on there being a bar somewhere in Viridian City, as I doubt Pallet Town has one.

Oh, and Rosie, Davey? I hope you two are behaving yourselves.

[Mom grins impishly before the feed ends.]
