Despite him barely doing anything, Oaken always seemed to push Eryn’s buttons somehow, and now was no different. Seeing him sitting, almost carelessly, on the chair as he tempted the park Pokemon to him struck a chord of annoyance in Eryn, and it didn’t help that he launched into one of his trademark villain monologues when she approached.

[color=palevioletred]“Hi to you too, Oaken. You put down any other trainers since I last saw you?”[/color] Eryn asked sarcastically. Whatever manners she’d been brought up to have could be saved for people who saw kindness as a virtue to be spread rather than a scarce resource to be rationed and earned.

Movement from the trees, however, snapped Eryn’s attention from the sitting trainer, and she looked over in time to see a pale yellow- and black-schemed creature peek out from behind a trunk. Had she been alone, it probably would have taken a few moments for her to place the Pokemon, but right now she had Oaken and all his righteous commentary—whether she liked it or not.

[color=palevioletred]“‘Unremarkable?’”[/color] Eryn repeated, turning on Oaken when he walked over. [color=palevioletred]“Shouldn’t the mark of a truly great trainer be the ability to overcome the odds and prove themselves above the crowd?”[/color]

Glancing back at the Mawile—who’d hidden again, though not so successfully that a bit of its jaws didn’t peek out from behind the tree—Eryn made up her mind. [color=palevioletred]“Tell you what: I’ll beat you down with that exact Mawile one day. You just wait and see.”[/color]

Then, turning her attention to the hiding Pokemon, Eryn approached quietly, Dei beside her. Thankfully, her Charmander tended towards silent disapproval, so Eryn knew she could count on him to behave.

[color=palevioletred]“Heya, Mawile. What do you say you come with me? I’ll make sure you get lots of goodies to eat, not just honey.”[/color] Though she didn’t have anything to eat on her, Eryn figured she could probably find something the Mawile liked sooner or later.
