Well, you need to make your dad. Choose whichever OW you want. When you go downstairs, an exclimation mark appears over his head and he says: "Player! I see you're awake. Listen, I bought you new shoes yesterday."
Then you get the running shoes. Then he says "Oh, and don't go into tall grass! That's where all sorts of wild pokemon are, and you don't have your own pokemon."
Then he returns to his seat and you can go outside. If you talk to him after this, he just says "How's it going, Player?".
See if you can make that, OK?
