Umm... hello Vatheon! I was wondering if I could ask a favor!

[ Wally looks a little embarrassed for a moment, but not so much that he won't continue with his little request. ]

You see... my asthma's gotten a lot better recently and I've been thinking that maybe I should train myself as well as my pokemon.  Sometimes I feel like my own weakness might be holding them back... so I'd really like to become stronger myself!

[ He could play with them longer, travel further every day, maybe not feel like dying every time he had to walk up a steep incline. ]

But I'm not really sure where to start, so I was hoping someone could give me some advice about exercises and stuff.

[ He's about to end things there, but then he just HAS to add. ]

And if anyone else happens to be a trainer and would like to battle some time I'm always ready!

[ ...He hasn't had a battle since arriving here a month ago, okay? ]

[[ Private to Saber ]]

Miss Saber, I know you were very interested in pokemon when I spoke with you before, and I think I have something you might be interested in.

Ah, yes, Wally? I am glad to hear your health has improved; for exercising, running is always a good start. It tones much of the body. [ The knight smiles softly. It always makes her happy to see someone who has the determination to better themselves. ]

[runawayrival]

I can do running! For a little bit at least... only for now! If I do a little better each day...

[ He trails off. He can't forget his original intention for messaging her here. It's important. ]

But what I really wanted to tell you was that one of my pokemon recently laid an egg! And I was hoping I could give it to you. I have a feeling that you're really the sort who could care for it and raise it well.

[pendragon]

An egg..? I see. You.. want me to raise the egg? I.. wouldn't have a clue as to how to raise a Pokémon. [ Still, there's an eagerness in her eyes saying she is most certainly interested. ]

[runawayrival]

That's okay. I'll be here to help you, and answer questions and anything else!

[ He can definitely see that! He feels he's really made the right decision in asking her first. ]

I guess if you do something that doesn't put on too much strain, you should be at least fine.

[runawayrival]

Well yes, I do know that. I was hoping to get advice on what sorts specifically might be best for someone like me.

[ofthedragonfire]

Well, I guess walking a lot could be one. Maybe light jogging as well. At least to start with.

I most certainly did not expect to have to advise this again.

Albeit, I will address most of your concerns. A man who suffers allergies can face the same severity of exercise as any man, considering he avoids long periods of exertion and exercising when ill. If you are of a good constitution, I assure you wrestling will bring you to good health. I most definitely advise stretching and strength training. Or, perhaps if you are weak swimming then a brisk walk.

If the weather is cold, exercise indoors or wear a square of cloth over your nose and mouth. And avoid it outdoors when the flowers give off their scent. Certainly don't exert yourself. Exercise at a level that is appropriate for you.

And even then, watch your diet.

Thank you so much! Swimming sounds like a really good idea. I think I could probably swim for longer then I can walk or run too as long as I can rest a little.

Isn't wrestling a little dangerous though? I don't think I'd survive getting hit with a chair, and that seems to happen pretty often.

Text:

[powerandstatus]

Why would you even be assaulted with a chair!?

I have no idea of what sort of 'people' you are assorting with, but if they are the sort who assault you with such brutality then I also suggest you reconsider the company you keep.

[What is WWF? He has no idea.]

Text:

[runawayrival]

Well I've never been assaulted with one. Honest! That's just what they do on TV!

It's big muscley guys in weird costumes fighting each other. I prefer watching pokemon battles myself... but that's just me!

[unwrittenformula]

Are you sure you're not pushing yourself too much, Wally?

[Why does N care? He has no idea. He just finds himself being oddly concerned.]

If you're looking for another trainer to battle, one just arrived from Unova.

audio;

[runawayrival]

I'll be fine. If I don't push myself at least a little then I'll never get stronger.

[ N...! Caring for someone is a normal thing! At least in Wally's opinion. He always worries after the trainers he meets on the road and hopes they're doing okay. ]

Hmm... From Unova? A friend of yours maybe?

audio;

[unwrittenformula]

[He's still getting used to that, ok]

That's good then...

Uhm... yes. She's a friend. Her name is Hilda.

audio;

[runawayrival]

...Is she your girlfriend?

[ He maybe might be teasing a little here. ]

[ourlegends]

You're a Pokemon trainer? I'd be glad to have a battle with you sometime! My team needs to keep in shape, too.

I'm not sure what to say about exercise, though ... I don't know a lot about how to properly exercise with a condition like that.

[runawayrival]

I am a trainer! That's wonderful... I've been playing with my pokemon a lot since getting here and letting them have practice battles against each other, but nothing really beats the real thing, huh?

[ He smiles happily. He's been waiting for someone willing to battle! ]

video;

[ourlegends]

No, it really doesn't. Battles are a lot of fun, for both us trainers and the Pokemon. They really do need to battle every so often.

Just let me know when you're up to battling, okay? I'll be there!

... Oh, I'm Hilda, by the way. It's nice to meet you.

video;

[runawayrival]

Is right now good?

[ He laughs and rubs the back of his neck nervously. ]

Sorry I got a little excited... What I meant was... It's nice to meet you too, Hilda! I'm Wally, and I'm free for a battle anytime. Actually except today, I'm going to get a checkup later on.

Hello, young man.

My name is Angelina Durless and I am a doctor at the clinic. You may come whenever you want so I can evaluate your physical state and give you more accurate recommendations.

[runawayrival]

It actually has been quite a while sicne I last saw a doctor...

[ He frowns a little, even before arriving in Vatheon it had been some time. Due to him running away from home and all. ]

I might have to take you up on that offer Dr. Durless. Should I make an appointment?

// VIDEO

[ladyinscarlet]

Yes, of course. [Gives him his working hours.]

I have been relatively free lately. When can you come for a check-up?

[ourfirststeps]

If you wanted a battle, you don't need to ask! There are plenty of Pokemon trainers around like Burgh, Wallace, N, and Hilda!

[Pause] or me if you want! [But she's not too sure about battling...]

Voice

[runawayrival]

Well... I know Mr. Doesn't think very much of battling, so I guess I was a little nervous about it.

Voice

[ourfirststeps]

[That caused Bianca to raise an eyebrow. She had an idea on who it might be but she'll ask anyway to confirm her beliefs or not]

Mr.? Mister who...?
