[quote=@Smarty Jones] James soon called out his own Pokèmon. A zorua, a houndour, an Eevee, a poochyena and a litten. Zorua, however, decided that it would try it's illusion ability and seemingly changed into a Lucario. "See? Mostly fire and dark types, with the exception of Riolu and Eevee." James said as his Pokèmon went over to greet Jessie's pokemon. It wasn't too often that his Pokèmon met other Pokèmon outside of battling, so they were happy to see another trainer's Pokèmon. "You've got a good team. They seem to be getting along with my pokemon. All of them are still babies, but with enough training, they'll be hard to beat." James said before processing Jessie's question about teaming up. "Well, traveling with somebody is usually easier than going it alone. So, yeah. If you're willing, I would be happy to work with you. As I always say, work smarter, not harder." James said with a nod. [/quote] Jessie chuckled at the quote and smiles... Jessie: That's pretty amusing for a saying. My family usually followed a saying speaking like [quote]A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.[/quote] It's something that my family believed in. My family... you see... they were ranchers. Farm girl and Farm boy tough. They were the type of people who were like fixers. Kinda like that one catchline you hear on that movie about this one robot wanting to make a difference in the world. Invent. "See a need, Fill a need." Jessie's Pokemon all stirred to that line and jumped up in recognition as they've heard it be said by the daycare people back when they were just babies. They remembered that line. Jessie: You know... You're right about our pokemon getting along. My pokemon seem to really love being near yours. For them to befriend just any random pokemon is natural... but these ones were so adamant in protecting me and guarding me... they didn't see much use in befriending others. So... for them to do this... It's amazing. Really incredible. Arcanine: *Sniffing and smelling a scent of something* Arcanine... Nine... Arcanine. Jessie: *Noticing Her Arcanine detecting something* Hey there, Cinnamon flame... Something itching your attention? Was it something good... or was there trouble nearing?
