[[In order to ensure she catches up to the Professor and co. as soon as possible, Emmy has taken to travelling at night. This has usually failed to present any real issues, but tonight, as she heads to the route just outside Cherrygrove, she finds something that....well

Are you alright, miss?

I'd like that! Tell you what, how about you let me know when you get to Violet City? I'd like to hear how you did against the gym leader.

That sounds like a plan! Be sure to return the favour, Maes. With any luck, we can share our tales of victory!

If I take on any of the Gym Leaders, I'll be sure to let you know.

Oh, you're not intending to battle the one in Violet City?
[[Come to think of it, that Eevee doesn't....look like much of a fighter...]]

He'll just fondly pat his Eevee. ]
I'm not much of a fighter, really!
[ ooc: also, hah, I just realized I derped out really hard a few comments back when I said that Eevee jumped on a windowsill. Cause they're... out in the woods. >_> We'll just pretend windowsill = tree branch...? ffff... ]

That's perfectly understandable! I haven't been in one of these 'Pokemon Battles' yet, so I hope they won't be too violent. Either way, we'll be ready!
[[oh sob they're not like. fights to the death or anything, are they]]

I haven't battled a Gym Leader, myself, but, the battles I've been in haven't been violent at all. [ Though... to be honest, all he's battled have been a little girl who was pretty set on nobody getting hurt, and a bunch of wild Pokemon... ] You 'win' by knocking out the other opponent's Pokemon~!
[ So there's no death and shouldn't be any blood or anything. If there is... you're doing it horribly wrong. ]

[[SHE'S WELL VERSED IN THE WAYS OF KNOCKING PEOPLE OUT, SO]]
We should start training right now! Although I don't know if my spide-my Spinarak will be any good at martial arts.
[[Not that she isn't willing to try and teach it! It will be...quite the puzzle orz]]

It's probably got a lot of useful non-martial arts attacks! This one, for example, [ Pointing to the Eevee that's still plopped on his shoulder ] knows how to kick sand into her opponent's eye to momentarily blind them.
[ His Magikarp knows how to splash around, too... it's pretty cool. ... Okay, it's made of complete fail. ]
Just treat it like a puzzle! [ Wherever did he get the impression that you like those? ] If your Pokemon aren't physically built to win through brute force, there are other ways of attacking and defending as well.

Wait, you mean....they can fight in ways other than just physically attacking an opponent?
I'm going to have my work cut out for me to solve this puzzle!
[[Furiously scribbling in her notebook! This is quite exciting. You are kind of the best person ever atm, Maes, just so you know!
....and she's sure your Magikarp is the sickest fish ever, brah]]
Do you know if there's a library in Violet City where I could borrow some books on Pokemon? I clearly need to do some serious research!
Reply
Yes! I believe only those of the 'fighting' type really specialize in physical attacks. But there are many other types! Like, Pokemon that can spit out large balls of flame, or even ones that can teleport from place to place!
[ Yeah. He's got a sick Magikarp already. If by 'sick' you mean 'missing a brain'. ]
I'm afraid I didn't get a chance to spend much time in Violet City the first time I passed through. But I'll let you know if I see one!
Reply
That would be absolutely brilliant, Maes! Just give me a call on this....thing. Pokegear!
If you're spending a bit of time in Violet City, do give me a call! I'd love to get tea some time.
Reply
I will do that! Feel free to call me if you need anything.
Reply
...YES, WELL....]]
I will. Thank you so much for all your help, Maes! Hopefully, I'll see you soon.
[[And there goes the video!]]
