[Lance is sitting on the pier at Olivine, long legs swinging off the edge of the dock. Off-camera but just off to the side, splashing can be heard with the occasional song of Bruce Whalis the Wailord and the chittering of Allura the Primarina teaching Veradera the Vaporeon all sorts of bad sea habits.]

Aside from gym leaders, are there people who have only a certain type of Pokemon they find themselves picking up? Like Ghost or Electric or....

[He punches a finger at the gear's screen to bring up the full list of Pokemon types and then nods.]

Or Bug. Yeah, so regular trainers like us. I have other types in my bag and computer, but I keep picking out the Water types. That's pretty bad, right? Not like the others are getting jealous or anything, but bad in like, that makes me a half-assed trainer when it comes to taking on gyms.

Not that I'm about to try for a badge or anything, but... I'm just thinking. Yeah, thinking. A lot.

[And doing so probably is giving him a migraine.]

I don't think there's a problem with it. Long as you can make it work?

That's what counts here.

Yeah, that's the thing, though, Shiro. I don't know if I can.

[All of a sudden, his eyes go wide and Lance starts waving his hand.]

Not that I'm saying I'm unable to before you start on the whole believing in me stuff again. I mean, I haven't taken on any of the gyms yet or really looked into any of them.

[He knows you all too well, Shiro. Save the confidence speech for when he really needs it.]

Then maybe you should give it a try. Find out which gyms are easier for water-type trainers to handle, and go from there.

I know the other continent has a couple, at the very least.

[Fine, you want to take the wind out of his sails? He'll give you new ones.]
