The explanation was helpful in enabling Dawkin to plan out what exactly he should do in the future. For right now... Ah, it seemed Kristy had been waiting for him. Although Dawkin was tempted to accept the challenge purely for the difficulty it offered and the accompanying prestige: not to mention Kristy was making it sound as though he had shown up for the sole purpose of battling her. But he was simply not prepared, his team could not face that composition, Whooper was his only Pokemon with a favorable matchup, Pichu was nigh useless, and his other Pokemon would not fare much better. [color=gray]"I'm honored that you think me worthy of the challenge of catching and battling you, but I fear I am not up to the task, I am sorry."[/color] Dawkin said respectfully. [color=gray]"Thank your for your advice."[/color] He said the Gym Guy and stepped back and began to move out of the Gym. He wanted to find out information about the surrounding area, primarily the dessert and what Pokemon could be found in it. Given his team's composition so far it would be foolish to seek out more ground Pokemon. It was more likely that he would backtrack to catch a Ponyta, or move to Stalford's Ferry to attempt to catch some water Pokemon. Action: Visit Desert Miner’s Hangout and gather info.
