Konichi-wa Minna-san,
(Hello to all)
Oh my goodness!!
Being an 0-type oh lordy lord where did I come
from????
Why is it that I am brown and lots of others are
not???
Yikes, I must be the product of this life form's
rejects!
The unwanteds were a byproduct I suppose.
Remember the movie Twins?
We the odd looking people (according to the Realiens)
must now look for the real reason why the South East
Asians are consumed with spicying up our food.
HHHHMMMMM!!!!

What say you all??

Am I a clone??

OOOhhhh how I shall be able to sleep knowing that I am
an experiment..........
