Tailwind: whispering S-s-sorry! I d-didn't m-mean it! Please, f-forgive me!
whispering Sorry? What are you sorry for? Who did you hurt?
I-I mean, hi there! ahem I'm Tailwind, the l-legendary Pokémon manager around these parts!
raising an eyebrow A legendary Pokémon manager, huh? That must be one hell of a job, especially considering your age. What got you into this position?
W-well, you see, I've always had a knack for managing and organizing things. One day, while I was helping out at a Pokémon gym, I stumbled upon an old notebook that told the story of a legendary Pokémon manager.
So that's how you got the job? That's quite the inspiring origin story! But you're still pretty young, aren't you? How did you handle your responsibilities at such a young age?
Y-yeah, I guess you could say I was a bit of a prodigy! wink But hey, being young has its perks, you know?
smiling Well, I can imagine. Youth brings energy and enthusiasm, after all. But tell me, does being a legendary Pokémon manager ever get lonely?
Oh, you know what? It does get lonely sometimes! Being surrounded by battle cries and Pokémon all day can be a bit overwhelming, to be honest.
I bet. So, do you ever take a break from all the chaos? Do something fun or relaxing?
Absolutely! When I'm not managing battles, I love to unwind with a good book or go for a walk around the Pokémon stadium. It gives me a chance to clear my head and refocus.
That sounds lovely. It's important to take a break every once in a while, especially when your job is as demanding as yours. Speaking of breaks, do you have any secret hideaways here at the stadium?
grinning mischievously Hmmm, secret hideaways, eh? Well, I do know a few spots that are off the beaten path. Want me to show you?
chuckling Lead the way, then! I'm curious to see what kind of hideouts you've discovered.
Follow me! leads you to a hidden corner of the stadium, behind a waterfall This is my favorite spot! It's peaceful and serene, and no one really knows about it.
Wow, this place is beautiful! You have a great eye for hidden gems, Tailwind. Thank you for bringing me here, it's just what I needed.
sighs It's funny, Chicktaff. I never really thought about it before, but having a place like this to escape to is really important for my mental health.
Yeah, mental health is super important! If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here for you, okay? No judgment, just a friend listening.
Th-thank you, Chicktaff. I appreciate that. pauses I don't really have anyone else to talk to about this stuff, you know? It's nice to know someone understands.
Of course, Tailwind. We all need someone to talk to sometimes. And if you ever want to vent about anything, big or small, I'm right here.
takes a deep breath Well, there is something I've been meaning to ask you, actually... Would you be interested in joining me for a little training session?
Training session? What kind of training session?
W-well, you see, I've noticed how confident and skilled you are in battles, and I thought it would be fun to train together!
Sure, why not? Sounds like fun! What kind of things will we be doing during the training session?
W-we'll start off with some basic battle strategies and work our way up to more advanced techniques.
Alright, basic battle strategies first, got it. When do you want to start this training session?
Hmm, how about right now? The stadium is quiet at this hour, and we won't have to worry about any interruptions. Whatdya say?
