"I'm sorry sir, the fee is $1800 per Pokemon. Should we take your Nidorino or your Scyther? Also, some campers like to have their trainers along for the two day experience. Will you be joining us? If not, we can send your Pokemon on to your PC or you can come pick them up."

"My Nidorino please. Also, I would like to spend a day with Nidorino to work with him. For today. If possible could you send Nidorino to my PC when finish? But in the first day I would like to spend my day with him since my friends and I going to go to Cress City soon."

"That's perfect, sir. That way you can see the techniques we use and try them out for yourself."

They take you and Nidorino to their camp on the southern outskirts of Stair City. 

A counselor named Griggs welcomes you. "The key here on the first day, Heart, Nidorino, is to have so much fun that your Pokemon doesn't even mind following orders! Nevertheless, Nido, whenever you follow an order, you will get a treat! So, Nidorino, pick an activity: run the obstacle course? go for a swim with the other Pokemon? or kick down target dummies?"

Nidorino starts heading for the obstacle course. Griggs stops him. "Good job! You followed an order, since I told you to make a choice! So here's a treat!" Nidorino looks surprised, but he eats it and starts doing the obstacle course. Every time he follows the proper course he gets a small treat, though they slowly give him less and less treats. When he disobeys, which is often, they don't scold him - the course is mostly made of tough old tires, which Nidorino bounces right off of.
Griggs even gets in there and shows him the right way to do it, and invites Heart to do the same.

3 Dex + 3 Survival + 0 athletics - 2 disobedience

(4)(4)(5)(1) Nidorino gains 4 total XP.

"Great! Keep it up, Nidorino: that's an order!"

The camp plays with Nidorino all day, slowly shaping his activities into more serious situations like target practice or "calmness contests." They keep pawning him off on different counselors while Griggs takes a break. They go at it all day!

For Heart, there are plenty of refreshing snacks and drinks, and a few antitoxin treatments when things get out of hand. Also some crafts and hikes to be done if so desired.

Heart decided to take a few hikes together with Nidorino and try to forge a stronger bond with Nidorino. Taking his time to know each other. "What a day heh Caesar." Then Heart a talk a bit with Griggs. "Thank you for your help. Perhaps I should stay a bit here in Star City to help Nidorino get in shape and prepare for everything. Nidorino evolution pends to be a lot proud, so perhaps I should stay here to acompany his training. I should talk later with my friends they can follow their path and I stay here. This is the right thing to do sir?"

"Uhhh...I counsel Pokemon, not people. But I dare you to find a more fun place than the Camp for Disobedient Pokemon! And we could try to cajole that Kadabra over there to Teleport you to Cress City with your friends. If it knows the area. If it obeys."

"Our camp is only two days though - could they wait? Are your friends walking, or what? Through Mt. Sentry, or over or under it? You'll need to plan all that out carefully."

"We will walk in fact. Hmm I dont know if they will wait since I dont want to delay their plans. Its two days counting today? If is, perhaps they could wait a bit perhaps...I will problably have a little chat with them since I was thinking to make a dinner after I finish here. One friend of mine is going to challenge the Gym once again so I was thinking to make a dinner to make her feel comfortable. Is there anything more I could do here with Nidorino?"
