"I hate last-minute orders. Geez. This is what happens when the man doesn't have his personal assistant jotting down his to-do list for the week." A scruffy businessman named Jackson scratched the back of his head in exasperation as he waited in line inside the Gardens of Babylon.
The other people looked at the man talking to himself with raised eyebrows but made no other comment since this place tended to be a weirdness magnet of the Nth degree. But hey, it was popular and reliable so no one cared. Not even Jackson himself cared since he was here to pick up a Fennekin for his boss. Something about surprise gifts.
Jackson already figured out it was either for a business partner or for his personal assistant. Most likely the latter since he loved to dote on her. Frankly, since it seemed like they were married in all but name -they even live together for heaven's sake and that wasn't professional in the least- he wasn't surprised at all. In fact, work conditions were best when both of them were happy and together so he was all for it, which was why he was here right now.
"Sir, it's your turn. What services would you wish for us to perform?" A sweet female voice brought him out of his thoughts.
"Oh hey, I'm a representative of Mr. Hidalgo and I would just like to pick up your other Fennekin egg...."

It had been a while since she’d been back here, Ramona realized as she walked up to the Gardens of Babylon. Actually, it had been a while since she had asked for any Pokemon egg in general. But regardless, it was probably because she was feeling a bit homesick that she asked for a Mawile. And who better to breed it for her than the same man who had given her Opera?
Striding towards the counter, the blue-haired trainer gave a smile to the person behind the counter. “Hi, my name’s Ramona, and I’m here to pick up a Mawile, please! The dots should have already been sent to your boss, so don’t worry about payment.”
The assistant nodded, disappearing into a room where she assumed the eggs were kept. A few minutes later the assistant reappeared with a large egg in their grasp. Thanking the assistant as she took the egg into her possession, Ramona slipped the future Pokemon into her bag and went on her way.
Now that she thought about it, that convention was coming up soon. If the top breeders were gathering to showcase their eggs, would the blonde man show up as well? How funny would it be if they ran into each other during the convention?

Maria blinked and scratched her head at the rest of this week's orders. Altair would have been so amused to see one of these particular pairings, if only to make a joke about how there must be some law of nature that must have been violated from this polarizing pairing.
"Who in the world breeds a Togekiss with a Honchkrow? That's almost as bad as one of those vultures with a Togekiss." She muttered as she tapped on her clipboard with her fingers. "There's just the sense of wrongness about having a sign of happiness breed with an omen."
She sighed. "Well, orders are orders. Can't really back out on them now. This should make an interesting story for the boss though." She chuckled to herself as she started to go to the breeding room. "Really, Togekiss and Honchkrow... pffffft."

Josh had left Ceres with a local breeder as part of a deal, and had come to pick her up. "Hey Ceres" He said with a smile as he hugged the Bulbasaur. "Bulba!" Ceres let out as she leaped into her Trainer's arms. "I hope you've been good, Ceres. You didn't give him too much trouble, did you?" He asked. The Bulbasaur would shake her head before motioning toward the Egg that had been left near where Josh had found Ceres. He noticed a note was on it, addressed to him. "Merry Christmas" It said. He would smirk a bit as the Bulbasaur looked at him hopefully. "Yes, Ceres, we'll take it home. Hop in the ranch truck" he said, picking up the egg as the Bulbasaur would hop into the back of the ranch truck that had been parked there. Josh would put the egg into a container all snug and seal it securely in the back with Ceres as he would get back Ceres's Pokeball and head out.

She stared down at the envelope in her hand, thumb and forefinger rubbing the edge of it gingerly as though to determine if it was real or not. But when could he have possibly had the time . . .? Well, there would be no telling, now, she supposed. He couldn't tell her anymore and she hardly would know who to begin asking. It would be OK though, right? The order had been long-placed, they were expecting her? Biting her lip, she sighed, taking a moment to tuck the envelope back into her bag before slowly making her way inside. As the warmth hit her though, she wished she had sent Kate to get it for her instead. She was just assuming something would be amiss, of course - that they wouldn't know what she was talking about, that this whole thing had been some kind of mistake or trick. Maybe he had made the arrangements for the envelope before, but then never got a chance to contact the breeder . . .
She was soon noticed by one of the staff, though, and any hope she had of backing out receded. She regarded the attendant with a vaguely startled look for a moment before nodding. "I came- I'm sorry, I think you have a Togepi egg reserved for me?"
When they really did bring her the egg, she could have cried.

Another day, another set of breeding requests. Maria wished that she could just finish all of them at once, but Altair had told her specifically not to. Apparently, a set of very important breeding requests were due to come in any day now so two of their slots for the week were reserved. They weren't going to get any money for it either because it was apparently so special that Altair deemed it worthy of being free of charge.
Sometimes she really doubted her boss' sanity. For free? On Christmas? He was going to lose a lot of profit in the name of good will and the holiday spirit! What in the hell was that man thinking! She'd think him totally insane if not for the fact that the man was still rich since he was still a celebrity with multiple endorsements, and was now a successful expert breeder as well.
"The things I do for my employer...." She muttered to herself as she went to the breeding room. At least the poll for the unnamed breeding room was set-up again. Something was being done for this week, which eased her nerves.

Two more and that's all he needed. And finding the Pokemon that were able to breed weren't that hard actually. Fining a breeder with two slots open were, but Ace managed it. He called up the breeder and left a message on his answer machine.
"Hey! So I have a request. I need a Chikorita and a Skiddo to be bred. Both of them are female, and I kinda need them soon...ish. But no rush. Thanks!."
Requesting a breeding for Amber Kazuki's Female Chikorita and Female Skiddo.
Permission given. You can breed them with any other Pokemon in the same egg group.
Unnur was instructed to pass by a certain fancy-looking ranch in Driftveil one last time before she went off on some more adventures of her own, somewhere far away from Unova, perhaps into a completely new region, full of a thousand and one dreams, and promises to be fulfilled. She found it a little strange, honestly. She couldn't remember having stumbled upon a place such as this last time she'd stayed in the city. Oh, well, Unnur would have more time to explore Nimbasa some other time. It was so close to Erin's house, anyway. The two could come over whenever she visited her for another playdate.
Silently, furtively, Unnur stepped into the building, shared a short, very court conversation with a woman who looked too irritated about something for any further conversation to be pursued. Not that Unnur really wanted to, either way. She was more than fine with things remaining that way. She only had to wait a few minutes before she was given the eggs reserved under her name, paid the 25 dots she was asked for, and went back out.

It was a day late, but the needed breedings were finally here and requested. In an answering machine from an inter-region call no less. Maria was still the one to handle the breedings for now since her boss Altair was still nursing some injuries from that disastrous trip in Kalos. Again. Jeez, it was as if bad things tended to happen whenever Altair visited that region for more than a few days. It was as if that man was cursed or something.
She shook her head. Maybe there was a ghost infestation that needed to be taken care of around here? Whatever the case was, she still had pokemon to breed for the week and a poll to oversee. Then she could see about ghost-hunting and curse-confirming for her boss. He was the best boss she'd had in years so she'd rather not lose him in an accident or something. That would suck. Big time.

A huge success and an utter failure. Maria hadn't had those kinds of results in a while. It was simultaneously irritating and kind of nostalgic. Mostly irritating though. At least Altair had allowed her to use the drugs in order to try the breeding again. In fact, he promised that if it still failed then he was going to take over the breeding personally and add his magic touch to it
She had to make sure NOT to say that to the pokemon though. The pokemon far preferred it when Altair was the one doing the breeding and she didn't know why, but she wasn't about to encourage them to wait for him by failing again. That would be bad. The jokes at the poor Snover's expense would be utterly nasty, for one, though she was sure that it would just bear with it.
"Maria, please stop introspecting and get to work." Click! Maria sighed at the voice of Altair on the intercom but started to make the trek to the unnamed room anyway.

Ace was more than happy once he learned that the eggs were ready to be picked up. Once he found time after work, and to make sure no one knew where he was going, Ace made his way back to the breeder's farm to pick up the two eggs. He was actually surprised they came with egg moves, which made everything just a little bit better. He quickly found the eggs sitting around with his name on and yelled to the back. "Thank you!~"
