"but you have. that's the difference and it's what makes you stand out."[break][break]

theo sniffs and gets a quick whiff of houndour's ODOR SLEUTH. it sure can be a nasty little dog at times. he looks over to see it CRUNCHING on a slowpoke and can do no more than sigh. he tosses a pokeball at it.[break][break]

he'll have to spend time training this houndour later.[break][break]

"Yeah, but that's kinda like publicity." One could work in the shadows and get more done, which is how he looked at those civilians who didn't stand out.

"It's not that I think little of myself. I just know it's a lot more than me out here." Nodding to Theo's Houndour, it's quick work of the Slowpoke brings a smirk to his face.

In the meantime, Derek and his pokemon ignore a rogue Gothorita that passes by. It seemed to think they would attack absentmindedly like Theo's Houndour, and was on guard because of it. But when Derek portrayed a lack of interest, it went on it's way.

"I'm just around to make sure there's a certain standard upheld by the gym circuit." Just not a golden standard. "Though it's not like anyone else is gonna look after Petalburg." Well, maybe they would. But probably not the same as him.

"hm."[break][break]

while there is no doubt hoenn has its fair share of capable trainers, theo wonders just how many of them will truly step into the light when the time comes. a thought for later, perhaps.[break][break]

houndour's next opponent won't be as easy as the others. the conkeldurr's WAKE UP SLAP announces that much. but houndour is agile enough to dodge the incoming ROCK THROWS. it runs circles around the fighting-types and chips away with EMBER until a pokeball stops the battle.[break][break]

"well, i'm sure petalburg is lucky to have you."

"Yeah, you're probably right."

Derek and his pokemon ignore the Solrock squinting at them from afar. Thankfully it seems to take the hint. They're not interested.

"But I feel lucky to have Petalburg." Some of the more traditional housing and structures gave it a similar vibe to parts of Blackthorn.

"So what city in Kanto are you from, anyway?"

"petalburg is nice."[break][break]

it's not completely a lie but he doesn't believe what he says entirely. he's only been there a few times and he's never had any complaints, but the city itself doesn't stand out. it's quaint enough. good for retirement.[break][break]

a wynaut DESTINY BONDS itself to the houndour which forces theo to capture it. not that he minds. he doesn't have one.[break][break]

"cinnabar. it's really hot there."
