Combat Usable
How Obtained
Dropped sometimes after combat with a Computer pharmacist as your sidekick.
You say "Bring bring! Bring! Sorry, I've got to take this." Your opponent has also apparently forgotten how payphones work and lets you leave without a hassle.
Then you throw the phone away, because who needs a phone that doesn't throw birds or turn you into a superhero or travel through time? (ends combat without costing time)
