[In spite of the commotion going on behind him -- namely his Miltank, Bessie battling the heck out of some Unowns (she's pretty tough for a pink thing!) -- Lupin looks surprisingly calm. In fact, he's casually taking out a cigarette to smoke.]

So. If we know what they are, why are they called Unowns?

Most likely because the person who named them didn't have any other ideas.

[misterthief]

Well, I'm going to rename them. From now on they're 'Bastards'. It suits them better anyway.

[ and that startled a laugh out of her. ]

I'm sure they're not normally this violent.

[misterthief]

Yeesh, I hope not. I can't take much more of this.

[middleagedloli]

Ara, you know what they are?

[video]

[misterthief]

The PokeGear says they're 'Unown'.

[video]

[middleagedloli]

Ara? Then you know how to stop them?

[video]

[misterthief]

Bessie seems to. She's been fighting them for days.

[video]

[totesaladder]

They're known unknowns!

[video]

[misterthief]

Oi, you're going to give me a headache.

[video]

[totesaladder]

But it's true, right?

[video]

[misterthief]

Yes, yes. But right now I wish they'd stayed Unknown Unowns.

I've just been calling them 'Flying Alphabet Soup' because 'Unown' is a really dumb name.

[She pretty much only recently figured out that was their actual name and NOT just what people were calling them because they had no idea what they were.]

[Video]

[misterthief]

I like you. Let's be friends!

[Video]

[foolishwren]

OKAY.

Let's have a secret handshake.

[Video]

[misterthief]

So secret we don't even know what it is. Just to be safe.

Maybe nobody could figure out a name for them, and they do look so weird.

video

[misterthief]

So why not 'Weirdos'?

video

[usedflashcannon]

How am I supposed to know?

[misterthief]

It was a rhetorical question, kid.
