[Spike studies Cadence’s Audino as she scans it with the pokegear. It doesn’t seem hostile at all, rather, it appeared quite friendly compared to Spike’s Trapinch. He let out a laugh at Cadence’s excitement. It was catching.]

This is kind of cool! That’s a neat trick for a breeder.

[He glances over at his Trapinch.]

My Trapinch doesn’t seem anywhere near as useful...or as friendly.

[And on cue, Spike’s Trapinch opens its mouth wide in a mock yawn, showing off those teeth. Spike winces, remembering how much they hurt. His eyes suddenly light up.]

Oh right!

[Spike carefully pulls out a poke ball from his pocket, looking unsure of what to do with it.]

I kind of caught another pokemon. It blew up in my face, and then it was really hurt, so I put it in the ball so it wouldn’t get worse. I hope someone can heal it…
