(You've exaggerated a little when you promised that Shiva's mind would be blown. :C But thank you for not spoiling just now what Type the specialize in, if at all, I appreciate that. When it becomes important Shiva might ask if she hasn't found out about it by then.)

Shiva listens with mild interest what Nathan has to share about the League, that's partly because she has no idea yet whether she'll make it to get that far to be allowed to a battle against someone from the League, nor whether she even WANTS to do that. Being a Trainer and everything was alright and fine for her by now, but growing very strong in the field of Pokemon Battling and attempt to become 'the best' were still not her real cup of tea and not her priority. It's nice to reach far and be decent in that field - but she's feeling that she's missing the right 'spirit' to be a fighter. Like, she's not even directly training her Pokemon to be good in battle!

She let him finish his speech and doesn't speak up right away when he has done so, for the most part she continues stroking through Cottonee's fluff and Raphael's featherly coat. She can very much and very real feel that excitement and eager from the current mountain of a man and wandering monk, and she finds herself sighing impercibly as a response. That's the mentioned spirit of a fighter, that's someone who matches the expected describtion of a League-Challenger - but not her!

In the end though, all while listening further to answered questions, she decided to just continue giving what she can and try to do good in Battling, attempting grow alongside her Pokemon by challenging as many varying foes as possible and facing more exciting Gym Battles. He far she'll become - the stars and maybe Lilith already know thanks to them, but definitely not Shiva herself. Time and more traveling will tell. If she'll make it far and high, of course she'll rejoice and be proud of it - but it's simply not her real desire and goal, which she feels distinguishes her from the avreage Trainer Person.

That dragontamer by the name of Merle caught her attention though and she couldn't help but to chuckle a little over that particular revelation. Sae with Latias - it's a legend, but the legend's still a dragon. Facing such a decent foe with her own fairies would be something she's personally enjoy, for the fight's and experience's sake. "Now that matches, more dragons....", she softly tells her fluffball and archangel, "how does the thought of some REAL dragonslaying sound to you two?" Azumarill isn't wish Shiva at the moment, but she feels the fae mouse, having overcome her massive sadness under her care, would enjoy such kind of challenge after Druddigon. (Your input, Iron.)

How one can be 18 years young and already be that strong to be a member of the Elite 4 quite catches and impresses Shiva, but she does a fine job to tone down a little how much of it shows on the outside. "If Gin's THAT good, what Pokemon does she usually use, is there a specific way she trains them or how can she be that decent in battling already?"
