( route's newest arrival isn't pleased, but for all the plethora of reactions one can experience in a new world... armin arlert is rather calm. he crouches at a water's edge, arm folded over his knees. his hair is wet, appearing longer than usual, and his chin is scraped raw. if someone mistakes him for a girl... well, it wouldn't be the first time. he sighs. )
How would you train a weak, ah, Pokémon? ( foreign, the question in the word itself. ) I understand they learn through battle, but can they learn through... Mm, exercises? ( the answer seems obvious, to be honest, but armin won't assume in the given circumstances. he doesn't want to waste the time, either, and this is an important step to integrating himself into this world. ) I think it would be more beneficial than risking serious injury or worse...
( — a splash of water, raining droplets over the screen. armin lowers the gear, revealing an upside picture of... a fucking magikarp. he smiles, though no one can see. softer, ) Don't worry. I use to be weak, too.

Is that Swablu?

Yeah. She does this all the time, mostly for fun or something. But also to get to know who I'm talking to.
[Or because she's a curious bird and needs to know these things! How else would the bird know who she's supposed to be looking for once you're in the same area!
...bird, they have these devices to keep contact about locations, so maybe they won't need your help this time.]

I'm not sure how well it shows on screen, but I'm sure she won't mind demonstrating this to you once we're in the same place.

Oh. I should go before it gets late.

( wait, what if he wants a private conversations on this thing? is it possible? how does he do that? — oh, too late. the screen is dark again. how do we gear??? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
