"Excited may be not the best words to describe it, Ven. Rather...nervous a heck, though somewhere deep I have the feeling that I might at least have a chance to win, like I won't go down spectacularly olike I would have back then when you and Nathan battled. But I've worked to this showdown for a while, and now... I'd be down to depart to Gym as soon as something with Nathan has been wrapped up, he said he needs my help on something."

"Oh, and..." At that point, she faintly cuddled up to the researcher beside her, before letting go and resuming to pour a second portion of sugar into the coffee, "thanks for that one! No discussing of battle plan though, the tactics are settled." Slightly mischievous smile said enough already.

Nathan indeed arrived relatively soon, and after he spoke out his plea, Shiva could not help but to...highly wonder where Ven got a Dubious Disc of all things from. These are hard to get without the right connections...certainly not without a few 'shadier' connections. She didn't knew what it was, but she did notice it had to do with the researcher in some way according to Nathan's semi-disapproval of the disk... There certainly was way more behind Ven's smiles than she already knew.

...However, she didn't let any of this slight suspicion arise and cause trouble, not now. Instead, she met his ask for a round trade with delight. "Sure, we can do a quick trade for the sake of evolution. Though, I cannot affort any of my close and frequently used Pokemon loose faith in me now and Helios is by far not yet ready to reach his Final Form, so I'll trade you that Fletchling I met as we left Ginger Town for the first time in return. Okay?"
