Rheese's first battle in the gym had gone decently. Of course, he owed that to Minior. Normal types usually countered rock types with common fighting moves, a method that wasn't so readily available against a rock/flying type. Wooper and Cottonee hadn't pulled much weight, despite Rheese's best efforts to encourage them. Obviously his opponent had more skill, but the lack of an availiable counter had decided the entire battle. The student had attempted to chide him for winning on type advantage alone, but those words fell on deaf ears as Rheese watched the conclusion of Sophia's battle. 

He didn't say a word, if he had it probably would have done more harm. Instead he pretended he didn't see her loss. After healing his Pokemon he came back and struggled to figure out something he could say or do, but he wasn't exactly great at that kind of thing.

[i][color=007236]So, Sophia. Do you have a strategy?[/color][/i] his question to Sophia from earlier replayed in his head. Any reference to it now would sound mocking, so clearly he'd have to avoid the topic.

[color=bc8dbf]"Those are all good questions, Aedre. In fact, plenty of Pokemon share a similar mystery of origin. Another question that bugs me though...How can a Honedge hatch from an egg? I mean certainly there are stranger occurrences in this world of ours, but the breeding of ghost pokemon as a whole is an oddity with little to no explanation."[/color] Rachel said curiously. [color=bc8dbf]"I certainly hope that your stay is extended though, it's always so nice to meet trainers with an affinity for Pokemon research."[/color]

[color=bc8dbf]"Of course I can!"[/color] Rachel said as she pulled out her map. "Anything you want to know about specifically?"
