Hmmm.... As wandering trainers, I don't think dolls are suitable gifts for now.
But I think I will still buy one though, for Kokoro not Kotonoha.
As for the cakes and sweets, I will have it later when celebrating her birthday properly in a sweet cafe.
That leave the jewelry and branded goods as the last option.
Although Kotonoha have no lacks of branded items on her body, but I have noticed that there is not a single ring on her fingers when we are holding hands nor even a piece of earring on her ears when I whispered sweet nothings to melt her down this morning.
I also noticed that she didn't wear any neck piece like a necklace or pendant when I kissed the nape of her warm and tender white neck, too.
Hey! I didn't do all that just to get intimate with her physically, okay?
I also deploy tactical analysis when I do that, inspecting her hands, her neck and her ears to see what she already have and what she didn't have in search for a suitable birthday gifts.
What's more, it is her Debut tomorrow, okay?
It is a special occasion for when she will be officially registered as a legal Trainer as she have reached the minimum legal age necessary in this PokeWack World.
(Author's Note: Currently Kotonoha status as a Pokemon Trainer is like those of the other professional jobs who are still in-training. She can have Pokémon, train them, and even compete in the unofficial tournaments like in the Duel Dome, but she won't be able to challenge the Gyms and/or participating in the Official League Tournaments until tomorrow when she have reached the legal age and her Trainer ID will be updated automatically on the League Trainer System Network.)
You could say that it is an important coming of age ceremony for her.
Hmmm..... Looking more in the internet, there is a culture of giving a ring or pendant with a birthstone embedded on it in a girl's debut celebration.
I guess this is good enough gift for my precious girl.
So.... Looking over, in this PokeWack World, the birthstones for those who are born under the Capri.... I mean, Eskopyorn zodiac signs are Garnet and Ruby.
Both are usually red in colour....
Meanwhile for those who are born under the Sachertorterius sign like me, our birthstones are Topaz and Turquoise.
Both begins with the letters T.....
Browsing the internet for some more info, I found the address of a good jewelry shop in this town that is quite popular with girls.
Looking at their online catalogue, I booked for the purchase of an 18 carats Meltan-refined gold ring adorned with a heart shaped ruby in the middle and four diamonds in leaf and eye shaped bindings with the price tag of 4,500 pokedollars (equal to 225 USD in my former World).
That price which is enough to buy more than two months worth of the cheapest food rations for a single individual may sounds expensive for normal people living an ordinary job in this world.
But when you are thinking that just by winning a Pokémon tournament, it can nets you two to three of those rings, then you would think that it is actually a very affordable price for us Pokémon Trainers.
After confirming the order, I quickly go to the Jewelry shop that is still open by this hour to complete my purchase.
Oh, aside from a ring for Kotonoha, I also bought a Pokémon Doll for Kokoro.
I have asked Kotonoha what kind of pokemon her little sister like, to which she answered that it is mostly flower pokemons or cute pokemons like Sentret or Lopunny.
Ugh...., Hearing the name Lopunny make the memory of Lopunny Moemon doujins picked up by Zozo's pickup ability from Mew knows where resurfaced again in my mind.....
I looked at my Zigzagoon who is merrily walking beside me with a swaggering step after we leave the jewelry shop.
My Zigzagoon, since when have you began to pickup how those Xia Novel Young Master walking?
Your skill set and pervertness aside, somehow I am thinking that you might have learned the move Swagger now.
"Zig gy Zig?" Zozo looked at me with her cute beady eyes, acting innocent while seemingly asking me "What's up, bro?"
"No, it's nothing." I returned Zozo to the pokeball as I entered a Pokémon Mart that is quite big in size of its building to buy some more supplies for our next journey plus a pokemon doll for Kokoro's gift.

[ ] Author's Note [ ]
Sachertorte is a usually dry, glazed chocolate cake, or torte, that is filled with apricot jam. It is said to be invented in Austria by Franz Sacher, supposedly in 1832 when he is still an apprentice chef at the age of 16 at that time for Prince Metternich in Vienna because Metternich's chef, Chambellier is ill at the time when the Prince asked for a cake. It is one of the most famous Viennese culinary specialties.
Meanwhile "Es Kopyor" is a popular cold delicacy made with the white flesh of coconut and its nutritious water as its main ingredients.
Kopyor is actually a genetic disorder in coconuts. Characteristics of this disorder are the "fruit flesh" that is soft and separated from the shell, on which made it become mixed with the coconut water, absorbing some part of it and left only a little amount of water than the normal coconuts.
The mix also made a distinctive aroma that is different from the usual flesh, and also make the unique sound of "pyor pyor pyor" when we shakes that coconut.
This trait is the result of a spontaneous mutation in the stem part of the flowers.
So... Yeah, we are actually eating a mutant coconuts as our delicacies here in my country.
