"Oi, lad. Got a sec? I think I might've misunderstood somefin. So, them Fightin' Pokemon, aye? You're supposed to train up ya Pokemon and all that? I got that down. But...I been boxin' off and on with my Machoke, aye? And now nothin' else wants to fight em. Tried doin' the gym thing, that just ended with her punchin' the other Pokemon clean through the ceilin!" "Point is...I think I might've sparred with her a lil too much...
Was...Was this woman serious?
Sure, she was much smaller than most people, but...Her size had nothing to do with what she'd just said. Why was she sparring with a Machoke to the point she was that horrifically powerful?! And, more importantly, why was this woman coming to him about it? Amethio certainly didn't have a resolution to that kind of predicament...
In fact, he was flabbergasted, to put it politely. How does that even happen? ...Actually, did he want to know? Probably not, honestly.
"...Miss...I don't know who you are, but you're not supposed to spar with your Pokémon like that. Training them comes from battling the Pokémon of other people, which also promotes cooperation between Trainer and Pokémon...Though, I regrettably know quite a few exceptions to the rule by now..."
He could feel a migraine coming on. Just how many people trained their Pokémon like this? And, was he in the minority for preferring to train his Pokémon in a more traditional manner?
