[The video flickers on to show some section of forest, presumably just a little ways into Route 30 around late afternoon. However unlike much of the lush greenery around it, this immediate area bears dozens of scorch marks, a few of which are visibly smoldering

Wow! I can't believe you did that!

[defiantstand]

Like I said, ain't all of 'em. I saw someone's video with tons of 'em.

But this group jumped us while we were gettin' some practice in.

[He pauses a moment to laugh triumphantly.]

And now they've been laid out like this an Gurren evolved!

[Leaning back against a tree, he chuckles a little.]

Ain't gonna do that again anytime soon though... we kicked their asses, but Gurren an I are beat.

I should start training my Pokemon seriously. *sighs* I know I'm not a trainer, but like this, I'm just dead weight.

[defiantstand]

Well there ya go!

You gotta do somethin' about that!

What do you have for a partner?

[beware_of_bears]

Well... *She releases a Meowth, who looks around, bored, and yawns.* ...A cat who wanders off and sleeps all the time.

Somewhere in another game, Viral rages at this

Kinda reminds me of that beastman... what was his name again?

Hell, I'd remember if it was important.

Even a lazy bugger like that can learn to fight! Why don't ya follow along when I start showin' Bridget some stuff?

fffff.

[beware_of_bears]

Really? I could?

[defiantstand]

Sure! Bein' able to fight alongside yer partner a big deal here -everyone should learn how!

[beware_of_bears]

You're right. I should try to at least pull my own weight.

[defiantstand]

That's the spirit!

Next time the kid gets some free time, we'll head into Route 30 for some training!
