[What's this? Silver is outside with his Pokemon and...not training?! You're not seeing things, this is totally the case. Quilava is happily rolling around in the grass, Sneasel's sharpening his claws on a rock and Golbat is looking for somewhere cool and shady to relax. Silver himself is just sitting there and watching them.

They're not gonna get stronger by playing and goofing off. Silver wants to be annoyed by this but he just...can't.]

Stay where I can see you, okay?

[... It looks like Silver and has a Sneasel like Silver, but those other two are so out of the park. But it is a trainer, Chien knows that even flying above with his Swellow. Regardless those are Pokémon he hasn't seen before!!! And Gold told him it was his mission to collect all the info he could with the Dex, so--

There will be a bird landing not too far away from the group and his partner approaching the playing Pokémon with a Dex in hand. Soren'll be flapping on over to join Quilava in its rolling around on the ground.]

Quilava and Golbat. The Volcano and Bat Pokémon. And Sneasel's the Sharp Claw Pokémon. [Explotaro grew a lot when he evolved-- wait what are you doing Soren] Soren, quit messing around!

[blinks, looks up]

Are you a trainer, too?

From:

dogboy

[... Right he should've probably said hello before assaulting the other's Pokémon with a Dex.]

Yeah, I am. I'm Chien, and that's my partner Soren.

From:

tsunsandsteals

Soren? What kind of name's that for a Pokemon?

I'm Silver.

From:

dogboy

[YEAAAAH HE THOUGHT SO guess you're Quilava and he's Feraligatr now...]

Soren's name wasn't my idea, but I didn't think it'd be right to change it. His original trainer was some girl who's gone now. I found him in the forest and decided to take care of him, so...

From:

tsunsandsteals

Oh...so he wasn't originally yours.

So you're not worried she might come back and miss him? [he's not asking because he's troubled by the idea of Sneasel's original trainer wanting to take HIM back, no...]

From:

dogboy

I've done a hell of a lot more with him than she has, so even if she wanted him back I wouldn't let him go!

[Soren is his family now!!! You don't just let a brother go.]

As far as I care, Soren's my partner and not hers. Even if it's not her fault she left. So no, not really.

From:

tsunsandsteals

[grins a little]

Good. If he's your partner now you shouldn't have to give him up for anyone.

From:

dogboy

[Even if you're not the Silver he was taught by and handed over to Green by, hearing those words make him happy. Hee. He's doing right.]

I doubt he'd leave even if I gave him away, anyway. Dumb bird's pretty much stuck to me. [there is only fondnesssss] And he's a good fighter.

From:

tsunsandsteals

Heh. That'll happen. [gestures to Golbat] They always get attached.

From:

dogboy

What's your story? Like, how'd you meet your partners?

[He'll even go sit down a few feet from the other to listen.]

From:

tsunsandsteals

[Silver blanches slightly. Considering Golbat's the only one he didn't steal...]

Well...I picked up Quilava at the lab in New Bark Town, when he was a Cyndaquil. [that's not a COMPLETE lie, right?] I caught Golbat in a cave, and Sneasel...kind of ran away from his old trainer.

From:

dogboy

[He nods, approval clear in his voice.]

Must've been a bad trainer, then. Sneasel looks pretty happy now, so I'm guessing you're a pretty good one yourself. Or powerful, at least.

From:

tsunsandsteals

... [Sneasel does look happier lately, doesn't he? Silver had stolen him only because he felt Sneasel's former trainer was too weak to be worthy of him, but maybe he wasn't the best trainer regardless of that.]

Yeah. Definitely a bad trainer.

From:

dogboy

So why'd you take... Cyndaquil? I mean, its final form's got a lot of power, but why?

From:

tsunsandsteals

It's a fire-type. I thought fire would be the strongest.

From:

dogboy

Well, you're wrong there! Flying's the best. [Bias aside. More incoming bias.] Ground's second-best though. And then it's Water.

From:

tsunsandsteals

[Silver would rather not think about Ground right now.]

Well, Flying's pretty good. But Dark is really the best.

From:

dogboy

I'd put that below Water, along with Fire and Ghost. Dark's one of the things I'm more familiar with from my world. Sneasel's part Dark, right? Ice too.

[In battle, his strengths are Fire, Dark, and Ground because he was Cerberus in a past life!]

From:

tsunsandsteals

Yeah, combination Ice and Dark type. ...unfortunately this makes him weak to fighting moves. [Stupid Lyra's Ampharos with its Brick Break.]

From:

dogboy

[Hm... Let Chien think about it a little. He uses this tactic himself in battle with others, though not exactly with Soren.] It looks pretty speedy, so maybe you can get around that by using the enemy's power against them? Like, they swing and since they've got to go through with it, he can get in a powerful attack while they're open and stuff.

From:

tsunsandsteals

That's what I usually do. If the other Pokemon's bigger and slower Sneasel can outrun it...and I think he can also learn Counter.

From:

dogboy

That's pretty useful. [Well, if it's like he thinks it does.] Fighting'll be no problem for him as long as you train him against that sort of type.

[He and Soren are training against Electricity themselves.]
