"He and his team are as fierce as one in battle." Cynthia said, referencing Alphonse's last remark. She spoke as she observed Al's team, taking note that he was definitely a Dragon-type specialist. She would have to introduce her own Garchomp to Al's at some point. "I'm sure he'll want to battle while here, so you'll get to see him in action." She then gestured to Al's team. "Which one of them was your first partner?"

"Well then I can't wait to meet him" Al says with an excited tone as he hears of this Saverask. Al looks back at Fafnir and Fafnir looks back and they both give each other a smile and nod. "Well my Salamence here, Fafnir has been my partner since I was a child. He's honeslty one of my best friends." He says with a chuckle.

"Fafnir." Cynthia smiled and repeated as she stood and up and walked over to the Salamence. "You're a powerful one, aren't you?" She asked, holding a hand out to the large dragon. "Does dragon training run in your family, Alphonse, or did you decide on it on your own?" She glanced at Al.

"W-wait he-" Alphonse stands up quickly trying to stop her as from past experiences even with other experienced Dragon Trainers Fafnir has always been hightly defnsive and warry but Fafnir simply growled briefly before sniffing her hand and gently placing his head on her hand, accepting her gesture. This dumbfounds Alphonse "Huh... Nevermind" He scratches the back of his neck a still shocked. He walks over to Fafnir standing beside Cynthia. "It was my own path that I carved, my father did have a Haxorous which I played with growning up so I guess that influenced me greatly."

Cynthia smiled brightly and gently rubbed the Salamence's head. She knew well how to approach dragon Pokémon. "That might have done it. And I know you've done well training them all. Not everyone can let their dragons relax like this with so many others around." She smiled at Alphonse. "Dragon trainers like yourself are some of the best trainers around because of how difficult they are to train. It takes skill and a lot of empathy to work with them. I had to learn that the hard way with my first partner, who was just a Gible when I met her." She looked back up at Fafnir as she thought back on her times early on in her career as a trainer.
