"Heh.. heh.." Hex chuckled nervously. "Noooooooo..?"

She briefly turned back to Anthony, Josh, and Matt. This was getting a bit awkward. The Bellsprout had knew exactly what she thought, so it must've been picked on a lot. She turned to the other two members of the Bellsprout's team, a Ponyta and a Slugma. Two fire types and a grass type on one team? That was new. Must've been pretty intimidating for the "leader" if his teammates could easily knock him out whenever they wanted.

"You know, I'm sure you're not that cowardly." Hex said, trying to soften the blow. "If you were bold enough to get into the explorers, you're not at all cowardly."

Well, he might still be cowardly. Arnold let anyone in. But Hex was sure that the Bellsprout could just use some.. work around the edges. Maybe mix in some boldness with that fear he was always feeling. If this Bellsprout kept going like this, always hiding behind his teammates, she doubted he would really get anywhere in the explorers, or he or his teammates could get seriously hurt. And she didn't at all want or need that.

"So, you want new teammates?" Hex asked, glancing between them. "Or you want to learn how to work with your current ones?"
