The researcher nodded their head as they described their morning to them, and gave a smile and slight bow to the stargazing Psychic type when she was re-introduced to him. "Indeed, I figured as much when we departed in the morn, but I'm delighted to hear you've finished your agreed upon work period for the Shelter at long last, and acquired......Lilith in the party. Hmm, she shares the nameshake of my sister, but I don't imagine that will be a problem if we are clear who we are speaking to! Yes, I could hardly forgot the enlightening first impression I had with her, and I've check on her several time during my work since then. Still, its a pleasure to formally meet you as a trusted member of Shiva's team, Lilith, and I do hope we get along together splendidly."

(I'm 99,5% certain on the 3 Pokemon I'd like to use in this battle, Windos, but if you're phrasing it like this, it indeed may not hurt to have back-up options. So let's say Shiva DOES hand you Plusle + Minun's Pokeballs after you brought up your sentiments, and rather quickly brings two other Pokemon into her party using the PC in the Gym before actually facing Dagny, alright?)


She knew Ven would notice right away that his Quetzoral and her Gothitelle are practically nickname twins, but he's taking it way lighter than Shiva might have thought he would. Than she might have feared he would. But...the first time she met that Unovian Psychic Type at the Shelter - or the Unovian Psychic Type met her at the Shelter - she knew she'd enjoy the thought of nicknaming her the way she eventually did. She also knew that this was a thing she wanted to clarify right from the start to avoid confusion and similar things that could be prevented.

The opening that Ven even checked on Gothy a few times positively suprised Shiva and allured another coy smile breaking to the surface before she eventually and at last turned to head inside the Gym. "Hehe... Yes, I know she's bearing practically the same nickname as your featherly serpent, Ven... But 'Lilith' has actually more than one meaning. One is the.....eh, well.... sexual female demon of mythology that you've choosen ('Why do you nickname her like this, Ven?!') the other is an astrological matter that I could tell you about at some point, which would explain why I've choosen it. If there's interest, that is. But not now, dear. A Pokemon responds to both its nickname and its species name in 99 percent of cases, so if we both keep that in mind it should be fine, and both of our Pokemon are smart creatures enough to not be overly bothered by it."
