Is there any benefit in travelling through Kanto rather than Johto? I want to know if it's worth taking this train over there.

[It sounds like he's about to say something else, but he's cut off by what sounds like some kind of squabble between his Pokémon.]

...are there any tricks to dealing with an aggressive Pokémon?

Aggressive?

[These cute things, aggressive? You've got to be joking. Sure his Tyrogue likes giving him playful (at least Rude hopes they are playful) jabs to the arm, but the tiny guy isn't raging.]

[used_bubble]

Yes. Two of mine keep fighting.

[strongestoftheturks]

Is that normal for Pokemon?

[He's glancing over at his own two, who are currently engaged in what he thought was just a rough game of tag. Now, he's worried that it might be the prelude to a fight.]

[used_bubble]

I don't know. I haven't been here all that long.

[strongestoftheturks]

Ask at the Pokemon Centre then.

[Text]

[used_bubble]

I could, but I'd rather figure it out on my own.

[Text]

[strongestoftheturks]

Your Pokemon might get hurt if you wait.

[Text]

[used_bubble]

That may be the only way for them to learn not to fight each other.

Stick over the carrot?

[Text]

[used_bubble]

What?

[Text] Sorry for all the one-liners. Rude's not very talkative. :(

[strongestoftheturks]

Carrot and stick is a method of training pets. You give them treats when they're good and you punish them when they step out of line.

[Text] No worries! Utakata can be the same way XD

[used_bubble]

I can't afford to bribe them.

[Text]

[strongestoftheturks]

Too bad.

Just keep them away from each other until you figure it out.

What Pokemon are they?

[Text]

[used_bubble]

Looks like I'll have to do so.

A Wartortle and a Nuzleaf.

[Text]

[strongestoftheturks]

Could I have a picture? Just for reference.

[Text]

[used_bubble]

You could just look them up on the pokedex, you know.

[Text]

[strongestoftheturks]

Didn't know that. Thanks.

[BRB looking up whatever a Wartotle and a Nuzleaf is.]

They look [Don't write cartoony or comical!! He's going to erase that 'cute' he was typing in too, before he finally uses:] tougher than mine.

[Text]

[used_bubble]

I wouldn't know.

[Text]

[strongestoftheturks]

[Rude's actually flipping through some other Pokedex entries and boy, is he shocked. How did something so small suddenly grow into something so huge!? Looking up the evolution for Wartotle leads to Blastoise, and the pre-evolution is Squirtle.

He might get himself one of those.]

All Wartotles look the same?

[Text]

[used_bubble]

Probably. I haven't seen any others yet, however.

[Text]

[strongestoftheturks]

Well, thanks for the info.

Bye.

Good luck.
