Pokemon Security Adapter

Son #3: How does the computer know it is ok to let you login to check
on your pokemon?

Son #2: Duh. There is a security system.

Son #3: How does that work?

Son #2: There are a bunch of people who read you password and check
it on the password list. If it matches, they click the button that gives you
access. If it doesn’t match, they don’t let you in.

Son #3: You mean they have everyone’s password?

Son #2: Yep.

Son #3: Those must be some pretty honest people to have all that
power. Dad, is that really how it works?

Me: Pretty much.
