Gray took yet another gulp of his ice-cold water, glancing up through wisping bangs of gray hair. The boy who talked to him seemed to have shocking orange or ginger hair, and a Ralts walked beside him. Interesting..."Yes," He finally spoke, his quiet, stoic voice barely hearable, "They weren't that strong." He tilted his hat downwards, finishing off his bottle of water and standing up. The black and gray-clad boy noticed that he was a bit taller than the other teen. It wasn't that shocking, however. His height was always a bit taller than most children his age.

"I'm guessing that you're going to challenge me as well?" He asked, not really caring either way. His Pokémon weren't tired, and neither was he, although he planned on taking care of the Gym Leader relatively soon, so that he could move on to the next city.
