Leon was quiet for a moment, thinking it over. “Pewter City, home of one of the most extensive museums on fossilized Pokemon as well as the Pewter City Gym. It is situated on a rocky plateau, near to Mount Moon,” he began reciting what he knew of Pewter City quietly, more to himself than to her. “The gym leader is Brock, master of rock type Pokemon. Rock types are weak to grass and water, primarily. So...that should be our focus.” His eyes came back into focus, looking to her with a small smile. “For that gym anyway. Further than that, we'll face more rock types in Mount Moon.”

After a moment, his smile turned to a frown, looking back out to the forest. “We'll mainly find grass and bug types here. There are rare sightings of other types of Pokemon, but it's not as prevalent in this area. Of course, type advantages aren't the only thing that wins battles. I could probably figure a way to take on Brock between our two Nidorans,” he commented. “Personally, I want to capture every species of Pokemon. So it really comes down to what you want to have in your party. If you get a well rounded team, I'll give you a strategy to win.” While his forte was his intelligence, the way he worded it made it sound as if he was doing this solely to help Rasca win. It was almost as if he didn't plan to fight in the gym battles himself.
