It's good that you didn't lose your Pokémon. I don't know how rare Trapinch is, exactly, but I'll be careful either way.

[Paul's own vengeful streak sympathizes. He'd feel the same way in that situation if his pride was hurt - glad that he didn't lose his partner, but injured and angry nonetheless.]

Your advice has been very useful. When I get to Goldenrod I'll have to find your employer. Maybe I can find a job with her. That line of work is one I think I could be helpful with.
