Q: Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and refrigerate it for one hour. This will help the flavors develop. Taste the avocado salsa and adjust the seasonings before you serve it. Consider adding the 1 teaspoon of salt according to your taste. If you want a tangier taste, squeeze the juice of another lime into the salsa before you serve it.
A: Chill and taste the salsa.

Q: Think about what you are planning to paint. Mix colors in your palette to create the colors that you will need for your design. Always clean your brush by swirling it in the water before you change colors to avoid contamination.  You can mix paint by squeezing two colors into the same compartment of your palette and mixing with a brush. You can also mix colors by scooping up some paint on the brush, depositing it in a clean compartment of your palette, then cleaning your brush and dipping it into another color. Transfer the other color into the compartment and mix the colors together with the brush. You should able to make all the colors you need just by using red, blue, yellow and white. If you have considerably watered down some of your gouache colors, add a few drops of Gum Arabic to the paint and mix with a brush. Gum Arabic binds the gouache color to the paper so that the pigment doesn't wipe away after the water has evaporated. Many artists find that it is useful to lightly sketch their design onto the surface that they are going to paint on. This can allow you to fully flesh out your idea before you use paint to set it in stone. Use a graphite pencil to lightly draw what you are going to paint. Before you add paint to your design, first use a white pastel to color any areas on your design that you want to remain white. Because oils naturally deflect water, your water-based gouache will not adhere to any areas of paper colored with white oil pastel.  Coloring with white oil pastel is not the only way to have white in your design. You can also use white gouache paint to add areas of white. However, if you are painting a very light and delicate design, you may not want to add a heavy layer of white paint to your painting. This is why some prefer to use white oil pastel instead of white gouache. If you do not plan on having white in your painting, you can skip this step. Gouache paint is best used in thin layers. Paint the basic colors of your design, filling in the drawing that you made earlier. Do not use the gouache color straight from the tube; instead, water it down with several drops of water in the palette so the paint glides on the page.  For instance, if you are painting a tree, fill trunk with brown and the leaves with green. Some artists only choose to use one or two watered-down layers in their work to create a sheer, watercolor-like effect. Others prefer to use many layers to add detail and dimensions to their designs. Although gouache can be built up, be careful not to apply it too thickly, as gouache has the tendency to crack when it is laid on very thick.
A: Mix your colors. Add Gum Arabic to diluted paints. Lightly draw your design. Color white areas with white oil pastel. Lay down a few base colors.

Q: Pikachu’s happiness is measured by an invisible scale depending on how you treat him. The number is invisible but is rated from 0 to 255. Keeping your Pikachu with you and safe will increase the number, while stowing it away and losing it in battle will lower the number. You can hit the “A” button when facing Pikachu and his response will help reveal how happy it is. This is the fastest way to increase happiness (though perhaps also the most tedious). Health potions can be purchased from the store and used repeatedly on Pikachu to increase happiness.  Potions will increase happiness even when Pikachu is at full health. Different items will increase happiness by the same amount. Pikachu will become happier anytime it levels up. This can be from combat out in the world or from using rare candies. Pikachu much have at least 1 heart hovering above its head (a happiness rating above 145) when you interact with it. This indicates high happiness and will be enough to get Bulbasaur. Using Pikachu during these battle is enough to get a happiness bonus. However, gym leaders are finite and it’s difficult to find enough to consistently increase happiness.  You can put Pikachu and the head of your party then immediately swap it out at the start of the fight and still receive the bonus happiness. The happiness increase from this method is slightly lower than using items or leveling up. Pikachu’s happiness rating will be lowered if it faints in battle or is stored at a Pokémon center in town. Leave it in your party and keep it safe to prevent lowering his happiness.
A:
Understand Pikachu’s happiness rating. Use items on Pikachu. Level up Pikachu. Identify when Pikachu is happy enough. Use Pikachu in battle against gym leaders. Avoid making Pikachu unhappy.
