[i]"They don't always have the answers,"[/i] Mabel said. [i]"Even the brightest professors can still be amazed by our capabilities. At the same time, Humans often surpass my expectations too. What they lack in strength they make up for resilience and determination. They are able to bring up the best in even the weakest Pokémon, it's amazing. I think even Arceus could learn a thing or two from those physically weak creatures."[/i]

"I am!" Penalopy said in human tongue.
But Mindy had her eyes on Gavin. "I've been around Pokémon enough to know how their language works. Either Mewtwo was kind enough to teach you the language, or..." She looked at what she first had thought was a belt. "Your 'belt' is sagging and the tip is loose," she informed him.
"Oehhh," Penalopy sang. "Busted~"
[i]"Miss Penalopy, you're not helping Gavin..."[/i] James sighed.

Michael looked at the Fletchling, who nodded as well. He watched the building ahead, it almost looked like a Poké Ball, with the white base and the curved red roof. He went straight to the door, actually feeling nervous about what they were going to do. Maybe he wasn't cut out to be a competitive trainer, but he did want to try this gym.
But the door was locked. Maybe she was late...

[i]"Let's do that,"[/i] Saruya agreed. They others could take care of things by themselves, she had no doubt. Especially with two old Pokémon with them. As she understood it, Benny was around for quite some time, but she had heard from her mother that Pokémon who got taken care off by humans often lived longer, depending on how the human cared for their Pokémon.
She started walking, ignoring the humans that looked at them. Seeing two Arcanine without trainers, one of them with an odd colour, would surely attract attention. [i]"Let's leave the city,"[/i] she said, crouching down slightly so she could leave in a burst of speed. [i]"I'll race you to the edge."[/i]

Andy grinned. "Not gonna lie, if you had looked like this back then, I would have stayed longer in your territory. But maybe we can catch up over a drink-" He got smacked by Kims tail. "I mean, I do have some things I need to do now, but afterwards perhaps."
[i]"Seriously,"[/i] Kim muttered. [i]"If I don't look after him..."[/i]
