[ Yuzu is happy to explain everything to Rio. They've got nothing but time, after all... especially once they arrive at Cherrygrove. ]
Oh, right... you get it from this thing called a Gym Challenge. It's kind of a big deal in this world? Basically, some places here will have a place called a Pokemon Gym, lead by a powerful trainer who specializes in a single type called a Gym Leader. You can challenge these Gym Leaders to a battle, and if you win, you receive a badge... and they're kind of like, symbols of your worth as a trainer.
[ Yuzu grins, looking a little proud now. ]
I happen to have all eight from this region! Though I have been here for a while, so...
[ Yknow, might be a little of a given... plus, she's been putting off starting her journey in Kanto, so... she'll just leave that out for now. ]
Mm... avian ice-types, huh...?
[ Yuzu furrows her brow... one immediately comes to mind, but Articuno is hardly an option. ]
Yeah, sorry... I can only really think of one that isn't a penguin, but... it's a Legendary Pokemon, so you'd be lucky enough to even see it. Let alone catch it.
[ Yuzu herself has actually met the legendary birds at the last Prom... albeit not the usual ones. The Articuno she saw back then was a psychic-type, so she'll leave that to be a conversation for later. Besides, she ended up challenging Zapdos' race rather than Articuno's challenge of admitting to some kind of important secret. So she wouldn't have too much to say. ]
But still! There are plenty of different kinds of birds you can catch! And, actually, you don't even have to worry about looking for one as big as this one. Most of them start out small, but get big enough to ride once they've fully evolved. Like those!
[ She points at the flock of Starly nearby... very small birds, small enough that one could have them perch on your shoulder easily. ]
Super small, right? Well, that changes once they've fully evolved.
