Definitely not the sort of response that Dimitri had hoped for, nor even close... But it is something he can stew on at a later date, for longer. For now, a battle requires all of one's attention.
It would be disrespectful to give it anything less, especially against such a powerful and proud opponent.
Extreme Speed is certainly not a move to scoff at, however, and there's a loud squeak as Gremlin comes into contact with a large dragon fist. (Funnily enough, it sounds more indignant than pained, although that is mostly a product of Gremlin's own personality.) With the size difference, it's hard for Dimitri to see if Gremlin managed to bite down or not. That might make the difference in this sort of battle...
But when worst comes to worst, there's always one more trick, and Dimitri calls it out to the little rat. "Ice Beam, Gremlin!"
Wiggling out from underneath a large fist, the Rattata's cheeks puff out, briefly illuminated from the inside with a bright blue glow... before a large ray of frost bursts out. Much larger than a small rat should conceivably carry within their small body.
