Awkward. It seemed the young woman wasn't interested in a tour or a challenge. Wait, a Silph? That made things even more awkward. It sure didn't take long for celebrity gossip to spread in Hoenn, it seemed. Was she here to talk about the beef he had with Matias? He sure hoped not. Putting on his best customer service face, the Gym Leader nodded and answered, "You're fortunate that challenger volume is light today. I'm sure my trainers in the back can handle it." With that, he gestured toward the building's elevators. "Follow me."
After a pair of dings, the doors opened to a small hallway that led to the Gym Leader's rather large third-floor office, overlooking Mauville Racing Grounds. The south-facing windows gave the best view of the facility. ACE SHEEKE was at the main battle court, the redhead administering a challenge with several of Josh's most vicious dragons, including a Hydreigon. How could such a violent Pokémon be broken to the bridle? It was something that only a few skilled trainers could do, and the Mauville Leader was among their ranks.
The office was large enough for several more of Josh's prized, saddled Eeveelutions to be out and about; it was evident that the office was sized to hold a mainframe computer at one point. Janus would mentally greet Delilah with positive vibes, a blank stare between the Espeon's halters. Kamuy was curled up in the corner, the Umbreon asleep after winning a hard-fought racing challenge earlier than morning. Pinky, Josh's Sylveon, stood next to the full-sized desk the Gym Leader took a seat behind. "These three are Janus, Kamuy, and Pinky," he introduced the Eeveelutions big enough to carry a single person, all three still geared for the occasion. That the Umbreon was geared and asleep was a testament to how well they were trained; it was as though the equipment was an extension of their bodies.
Memorabilia of the legendary Pokémon Raikou was scattered everywhere: figurines, plush, and the like were neatly arranged throughout. Though the most valuable part of the collection on display was a single copy of every officially-produced Raikou trading card printed in the past two decades, his most precious was a 12-inch Raikou plush that sat on the corner of his desk, its condition indicative that it had been loved and cuddled with for quite some time. "Great to sit down and chat with you, Ms. Silph. If you would prefer Delilah, I can call you that. How can I help you?"
