She spoke with confidence and issued a speed challenge between Bo and her own Pokemon, a skiddo. The trainer side-eyed his partner and smirked with his own confidence. [color=F5EB7D]"I'll take you up on that!"[/color] His partner nodded with an equal amount of confidence, raising his paw into the air, pumping himself up for his race. But as the two were preparing themselves for the challenge another voice chimed in, one from a girl in a cute and fashionable hat, catching the blonde trainer off guard once again. [color=F5EB7D]"Oh,"[/color] he mumbled as she explained her thoughts on the race. Lochlan himself didn't think too much about the skiddo's stride in comparison to Bo's, but he figured that maybe the nimbleness of his Pokemon would style on over his opponents. Biting his lips with a bit of nervousness, mixed with anxiety, and the possible thought of losing this little challenge excited Lochlan. This was what being a trainer was all about, doing things to showcase your Pokemon's talents and strengths. With a wide grin, Lochlan turned to the girl in the pink jumpsuit, [color=F5EB7D]"We're ready to go!"[/color] The race began as Lochlan watched Bo on with anxiousness. His little brown fluffball darted for the tree that the girl had pointed to, sprinting as fast as he could to it and back again. From where Bo was in the lead as the two neared the tree. [color=F5EB7D]"You got it, Bo!"[/color] [/indent]
