"Hm, well, if you get him to talk to Dagny, Dagny will automatically keep me updated. That should work just fine." She makes sure you know exactly where Bill's house is. "He's normally pretty friendly, so I don't think you'll have any trouble. Occasionally he does get absorbed in his work though. I think he's building some kind of PC attachment right now, some attachment he needs to adapt from other regions to work in Creshire."

"Hopefully there won't be trouble.  The Solosis situation isn't exactly a very tasteful topic as it is..."

Nathan pauses again to think, then continues.

"...anyways, topic #2.  If you could keep the Zigzagoon from mobbing me, that'd be great."

Nathan digs around in his bag for a moment, talking as he searches.

"...given that you do a lot of spelunking and might have great need of this at some point, and there weren't any objections when I brought up the topic..."

...and pulls out the Rock Smash HM in all its glory.

"...two pokemon.  Bonus points if they aren't sniffers, psychics, or bugs."

(Important OOC Note: I'm justifying teaching it to 2 of Tanuki's pokemon on the grounds of her having a backup Rock Smasher if her first one is unavailable/incapacitated for some reason.  Better safe than sorry when it comes to Mt. Sentry!)

"Ziggies, go FETCH!" She throws a shiny bauble into one of the tubes and the Zigzagoon mob it. 

"Ah, yay! I got to use Rock Smash with Mirror Move in my battle against Heart, and it was so exhilarating! Thanks, Nathan, for following through!"

"Forward, Spinda!" Spinda appears and totters forward. "No one can predict or manipulate Spinda, not even the Seikamater!"

"And if you tell anyone I own this next Pokemon, I'll Rock Smash your head! Forward...Dunseraph!"

A beautiful sky serpent appears, filling the entire room! It's the size of an Onix, but instead of being brutish, clumsy, and hard, it is smooth and graceful and magnificent. Its long whiskers tickle Nathan, and it doesn't seem to really need its luxurious white wings to fly. They're more for steering as it twists in the room, presenting itself to Tanuki and Nathan.

Though she surely sees it every day, Tanuki's face lights up brilliantly when Dunseraph appears.

"I know it's not technically a Normal Pokemon, but it actually evolves from one! Who knew Dunsparce had such potential? But that's my whole deal - Pokemon people tend to underestimate!"
