[schachmeister]

Oh, one of those would be good at well. Some people like to train many different kinds of pokemon, and some people prefer to stick to a single type. You seem to really like your rock pokemon, so I thought you might be more like the second kind.

[smallshot]

I only have two. [Two rocks? Two pokemon? We just don't know.] I want to be good at fighting.

[schachmeister]

If you have a lot of different types, you'll definitely have an advantage when fighting.

If you want, I could breed you a pokemon. I have a lot of water pokemon, but I've got some other types too. And some of them are cool. Well, I think they are cool.

[Armin should never be the arbiter of what is and is not cool.]

[smallshot]

I think mine are cool. [Oh no, she's smirking again. And the geodude is pausing his flexing to grin and rub his...head? Body? What a bashful guy. Gabi's idea of cool was Reiner, rugged. Rocks just happened to fit that a lot.

But she stares at Armin, looking at him. Does he feel judged? His coolness is being evaluated.]

... Miss Mikasa thinks you're cool. [And Gabi thought Mikasa was cool so somehow that meant Armin had taste? Somehow?]

[schachmeister]

[He'd probably be a cooler guy if he didn't bashfully rub the back of his neck for a moment at that.]

Does she really? She never told me that.

[Obviously Mikasa liked him! He just... didn't think she thought he was particularly cool.]

[smallshot]

[Oh look, he matched her geodude. Not that Gabi noticed, she was too busy nodding.]

She listens to you and everyone listens to her.

[If Mikasa is boss and he is Mikasa's boss, then he is the bigger boss, yes. Logic.]

[schachmeister]

[Armin just girl bossing it up.]

Mikasa does have a way of making everybody fall in line.

[It's her fists. She will beat you up.]

[smallshot]

[She is goals. Oh right, what were they talking about? Her smile dropped as she frowned in concentration.]

I've not seen any water pokemon.

[Up till now Gabi had been traipsing through the woodlands and a little look in Dark Cave. Where it'd been that dark she'd tripped over a Geodude and then caught it.]

[schachmeister]

They aren't really that common in that part of Johto. Though, you should be able to find Magikarp in just about any stream.

[Though is it really wise to steer Gabi towards a pokemon that evolves into fucking Gyarados? Time will tell.]

[smallshot]

I saw a stream the other day.

[She'd mostly been sticking to the area around the cave. Rocky had been a good addition to the team. Plus there were larger gaps between the trees for Horny, he had trouble bumping into them in the forest.]

So I just throw food in and catch them when one comes up?

[It wasn't like she had a rod... Or the patience to fish. Or to raise a magikarp.]

[schachmeister]

You could. Or just see if any of them are particularly friendly. You don't always have to catch your pokemon through battle and using a Pokeball. Several of mine were ones I simply befriended along the way.

[smallshot]

That's how I got my Geodude.
