"Oh, they're cute!" Lia said with a smile, "I'd show you my Pokémon, but they all went for food. I have Metagross, Empoleon, Excadrill, and Magnezone. They're adorable, too!"

[Midorikawa]

'Cute? Maybe Emerald, but Lady isn't cute. Beautiful is the word that should be used to describe her,' Junine thought to herself being particular about her pokemon as they were raised on contests. "So your a steel type trainer then that means," she said to Lia.

[Lyrebird]

Ariana wasn't paying attention as she was focused on why she was here. "Hmmm yeah steel type" she then thought to herself "Right I need to know how this thing works anyway" Ariana was biting into an apple as well "Right well I do know if we will compete against each other. Seems a little odd that the rules aren't even there....we don't know" the beautiful blonde thought to herself out loud.

"I would think it to be tournament style and the remaining eight become the new leaders, though they may have some tests to see our abilities as gym leaders," Junine answered Ariana thinking she was talking to them.

[OverlordRuby]

"Yeah, I'm Steel-type! All of them are so cute and adorable and pretty! Once, someone thought that I was a Normal-type, because I love cute Pokémon so much! I slapped them, because they don't understand the beauty of Steel-types!" Lia giggled, "What type are you, Junine? A Tsutarja and a Gardevoir aren't the same type, right? Are you a Psychic or Grass-type?"

[Midorikawa]

"Um, you'll have to wait and see I guess. Assuming my opponents can get pass Emerald and Lady," she said as Emerald stood proudly on her shoulder.

[OverlordRuby]

Lia was momentarily annoyed, "I told you what kind I was, so you should at least give me a hint!" Lia brightened, "Do you guys wanna eat? We can go meet up with my cuties, too!"

[Midorikawa]

Junine was surprised by the quick attitude change before regaining her composure. "Let's go eat."

[OverlordRuby]

Lia nodded, "Alright. I think I saw bento boxes over there. I love those things!" She walked quickly over to where the food was, and found her four Pokémon pigging out, "Hey, guys! Wanna meet my new friends?" Lia gestured towards Junine and her Pokémon, "That's Junine and Lady and Emerald!"

[Midorikawa]

"Nice to meet you," Junine said while Emerald looked at his competition and scoffed. Lady greeted with a curtsy and hello.

[OverlordRuby]

"Your Tsutarja has some serious 'tude for such a little Pokémon" Lia noted, "Especially when my Pokémon seem to have the type advantage, or at least not disadvantage. Yes you do, cutie Emerald, yes you do!" Lia cooed to Junine's Pokémon.

[Midorikawa]

Emerald's tail glowed green. Junine noticing this shrugged her shoulder causing him to fall off and start yelling at her. "He does have a nasty attitude so I wouldn't suggest talking to him like that. Also type means nothing," Junine said exasperated by her pokemon but smiled at the last part.

[OverlordRuby]

Lia shrugged, "Well, my Pokémon aren't acting up like that. And it's not like they have an advantage either," she fished through her pockets, and located a pack of gum, "Want some? It's doublemint."

[Midorikawa]

"No thanks, and he's not acting up. It's his individual personality. It's what makes him different from all other pokemon," Junine said picking him up and smiling gently at him.

[OverlordRuby]

Lia shrugged. She didn't want to lose friends so early, "Where are you from?" She asked extra-sweetly.
