Eclorian realized Aster didn't appreciate Tsurugi's behavior and wanted to ease his mind. [color=a36209]"We shouldn't worry about it too much. I figure Tsurugi is one of their top trainers and he wants to see if we got what it takes. Consider it a challenge. Besides, we just got Moltres feathers by teaming up, I'm sure we can find a Pokemon within six hours."[/color]

While searching for their target, Eclorian let Tony walk by their side. Being a steel type, Tony didn't have too much problems in a snowstorm. He'd also make a good match for the Alolan Ninetales if they needed to weaken it.

[color=a36209]"I remember you owning a Honedge. I'm guessing he is just like Tony when it comes to this cold weather."[/color]

When Aster asked about the Alolan Ninetales being in Sinnoh, Eclorian shrugged. [color=a36209]"Beats me. It's far away from home, that's for sure. It's possible that this is the reason why we need to catch it, so the Project can return it to Alola."[/color]
