[Hey, it's Nero!]

[There's an egg balanced on his head...?]

[He seems perfectly unconcerned. It's an Axew egg, for anyone who might care to note. It is, specifically, a gift egg, from someone he dearly wants to freak out a little, because of Reasons.]

[He flashes the Earth badge.]

I'm about done here, the Gym was a pain. Gonna head back to Saffron. [Pointing to the thing on top of his head, which wobbles precariously.] I'm thinking about scrambled egg for lunch. If anybody's got any recipes, I'm all ears.

[Click. (And no worries, the egg is perfectly safe, but if you'd like to assume otherwise, feel free!)]

[private text message to Kyrie:]
Do you have time?

...Really, now.

[There is a very apparent touch of interest in his voice now.]

Six pokemon, six different types. Guy's a damn good strategist, too: I don't think I would've made it without the levels on my team.

[About two minutes of silence from his end. And then-]

That sounds absolutely wonderful. Do you know anything about his elite team?

[video]

[ripped]

Nope, but it's probably got the same coverage as his regular one. A grass-type, a water-type, a rock-type, a fire-type, and...a fighting-type and a flying-type.

[If he remembers correctly.]

...I believe I am going to like that Gym.

[Seriously, he sounds like his birthday just came early.]

Does the badge Have any interesting effects? Since it sounds as though this particular leader is stronger than the others.

Not that I noticed. Got a pretty good TM for beating him, though. I heard that beating his elite team nets you something better, but damn if I know what.

I will definitely have to find that out. It must be extremely useful, at the very least.
