Commentary
I could have skipped this comic, and it would have been okay. We'll get to see Ellen's feelings in the next comic, and it could be argued that this comic will be made redundant.
HOWEVER! I didn't want to just have Ellen's feelings in text. I wanted to show a relevant example of why she feels the way she does using her own memories for context.
I also wanted to show Ellen having memories of being Elliot, because Ellen has those, and that's relevant to this entire storyline.
So if Editor Dan showed up, and told me that this storyline couldn't go over 151 comics (for it is naught but hubris to go above the original Pokémon count), and something HAD to be cut, this comic would've been an option.
Since Editor Dan did NOT do that, however, HERE IT IS.
Comments
Scott Meyer of "Basic Instructions" captured my attitude toward cheating at video games: "I paid for the whole game, so I plan to see the whole game." Granted, he was talking more about looking up advice than using codes. Also, more than half of my games have been gifts.

Sometime I need to use story mode to advance in a game, as I am old and not fast fingered, but generally I avoid games that require that kind of coordination, as they aren't fun for me. Very few have a story so compelling that they will be worth the frustration or the need to use cheat codes or story mode.
