Interesting. This network is more advanced than I would have thought from a place like this. Everything seems so... simple. There's definitely a lot more natural places around than I'm used to, if this map is right.

I suppose I'm a new 'trainer'. These creatures do remind me of something, though... has anyone here ever been to Zawame City? I'm guessing no, but I thought I might as well ask.

I guess I should get started on learning things about these creatures if I'm going to be here for a while...

[Action for Goldenrod Rocket Base]

[... Though maybe not so quickly. Anyone in the Goldenrod Base might spot the new recruit, looking vaguely uneasy at what he's read of his 'partner' Pokemon's species. Either that, or someone might spot him in a quiet corner, clearly trying to ignore something but... nothing that's visible.]

[ If only that were the first time he'd heard that. ]

Then we are at an impasse. [ Seriously what now. ]

[grapeeater]

I just don't see why I should bother with you.

[whitehairedprettyboy]

Why you should - ! I should be the one asking that about you! I'm far more important than you are!

[ All right. Like it or not, it looks like the boy won't be giving him his hard-won money. It probably wouldn't be very much anyway, judging from the looks of him. So it's time for plan B: graceful exit. ]

In fact, I don't think I do want to deal with you any longer! I've wasted quite enough time here already. Come on, skunk thing. We're leaving.

[ The Stunky trots over to Valmont's side as he turns to go. She does turn back briefly and wave at the Vulpix with her tail, though. ]

[Finally. His Absol eyes Valmont warily, and his Vulpix waves bye with her tail.]

[Once Micchy's sure Valmont is gone, he leans against the wall and glares at the vision of his brother. Whatever he's about to say, Micchy turns away from him to recall both Pokemon to their Pokeballs. He has other things to deal with right now.]
