[Rika saw the whole thing, and couldn't help but feel bad for Keiichi. Relief had washed over her when he was slapped by his Ambipom; she didn't want to do it herself, after all. Luckily, he realized how he was acting.
So, here Rika was now, in the Pokémon Center, hoping to comfort Keiichi. She tugs on his sleeve.]

[Keiichi feels Rika's tug, but he doesn't look over to her. It's more out of embarrassment and shame for the way he acted earlier. He really was an idiot.]
[Rika lets go, knowing that Keiichi won't face her. She knows how embarrased he is, but that does not mean she won't be easy on him.]
Keiichi, the way you treated your team was inappropriate. You know better than anyone how hard they tried to win that battle for you.
However, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you can't win. Sometimes, you need to become stronger. Sometimes, you aren't ready. You should know this as well as I do.

I know, but...
... It wasn't the battle I was truly worried about. I'm more mad at myself than my Pokemon before anything. They put everything they had into fighting for me, but that's not the reason why I'm so angry!
--hieeee! *flinching quite badly as he turns to yell, stopping dead in his tracks.* A-are you... N-no, you're definitely not alright... Um... You shouldn't let a single loss get you down, no matter how badly it looked...
It's understandable you are feeling frustrated, but remember that even losses are learning experiences. They help you grow and foster you into a better person even more so than winning does.
... Keiichi-kun. [ Asuka's voice is less stern than Mitsuru's, but still somewhat firm-- and definitely concerned. And unlike Mitsuru, she's got no idea what's bothering him. ]
