"we get along. He was still fairly young when I met him" Tiger
replied and let the Charmander out. Dusk then came out of the
Pokéball and looked at the others.
"Aww," Mel squeaked, looking at the shiny Charmander. "Has he used
any fire type moves on you?" She asked, remembering her neighbors
Pignite (It had burnt their yard at one point, and in the process
of doing so, knocked Riu out).
Riu flicked his tail and looked at Dusk curiously. "Hello,"
He offered awkwardly.
"Seems it." Mel smiled and nodded. "I'm sure he'll get over it
eventually." She added cheerfully, remembering how quickly her
neighbor's Pignite had changed.
"There was a few Pokémon who attacked him when he hatched." Tiger
said with a sigh. "I guess they never seen a shiny before, that or
they didn't like him much..."
"I'm Dusk" Dusk replied unsurely Cyndaquil whispered
something to the Pokémon, and Dusk went towards Riu slowly.
"Well I was in Elm's lab when he hatched. There was a Riolu, and a
Politoad who attacked him. Cyndaquil and I broke up the fight"
Tiger replied sadly and glanced at the Charmander.
Dusk looked at Riu he then slowly climbed onto the Pokémon.
Mel nodded and looked at the Pokémon. "That's terrible. At least
he's okay now. Maybe not mentally, but.." She shrugged and spotted
Angel. "Oh, I guess we aren't too far. Hi Angel!" She called,
waving cheerfully.
Riu tilted his head slightly, a silent confirmation of safety. He
glanced at Angel as well.
Tiger looked over to Angel and nodded a greeting. Dusk then looked
at Angel and sat on Riu's head. He kept the tail flame away from
the Pokémon as best he could.
