Hello! My Furret and Chikorita are moving with me to Unova, and I was wondering if there's anything to look out for during/after the move? Furret is a big gorl named Frootloop, whereas Chico the Chikorita is feisty and close to evolving. I've been worried though since his leaf is wilting slightly.
Congratulations on moving soon I've heard great things about Unova! The most I can recommend for you too watch for is Frootloop and Chico is them getting stressed out, nervous, or scared, moving to an entirely new region is scary. I would recommend packing familiar items (Toys, pillows, blankets, ect) and put them in there own box or bag so when you get to your knew home it's one of the first things you can unpack and give to them and maybe you can take them on more walks once you get there to help them get used to the new place.
As for Chico there is no one potential cause for his leaf to begin wilting, it could be because he isn't eating enough (as you said he will evolve soon), not enough sunlight (I would recommend buying a specialized light), his food being expired or has somehow gotten damaged, too much water or too enough water, or it's a type of reaction to the stress of moving. I would recommend taking him to a doctor to be 100% sure on what's exactly going on. I hope I didn't ramble and I hope that you, Frootloop and Chico will have lots of fun in your new home.
Thank you for the help! The doctor said we have to stay in Johto until Chico evolves into Bayleaf. Which I'm fine with. And it seems you were right, it is a lot of stress, and to be completely honest I haven't been spending as much time as I should be with them due to packing and moving. We're gonna have a movie night tonight and I'm gonna make sure they feel less stress so Chico can evolve in peace!
