*The worst part about this conversation was that she had to talk to as well. Why couldn't just Ethan rant for hours, you know? That would save both time. To show she understood him, Selene would nod her head and smile. Ethan had a way with words, one that made Selene interested. To keep the conversation going, Selene would give Ethan some insight about Alola.* "That's cool, Alola is just ... Sun, like you would expect. But yeah, I don't mind, I can go to the beach every day of the year." *To lighten the mood, Selene would tell Ethan a joke. It wasn't one of her strengths but at least, Selene was trying her best. Maybe Ethan would appreciate her effort. She'd let out a cute chuckle and cover her mouth using her hand.*

_Ethan chuckles a bit before answering._ "Must be nice, eh? Living on a tropical island, or _islands_ right? You can like totally train up your Pokémon any day of the year! That sounds sweet! But I do gotta question..." _Ethan suddenly asks._ "If it's only tropical islands than where do you get your Ice types from? Since it's sunny and warm all yeah 'round? Are they in a hidden area that's like really cold? Is it anything like Ice Path over here in Johto? Or Mount Silver? Even though nobody has climbed that high in years..." _Ethan said, beginning to ramble._ "I'd love to do that with my Pokémon! Besides rumor has it some wicked strong trainers are really close to the top! I could always use a challenge to help me hone my skills!" _Ethan exclaims, his Pokémon behind him showing the same enthusiasm as Ethan._

*Selene would chuckle, there he goes again rambling on. She find it a bit funny how he did that. To not seem rude, she'd cover her mouth using her hand. After all, she wouldn't want to offend Ethan, he was her friend. She was going to mention it and make a sarcastic comment about it but perhaps, he would get offended.* "You know the Pokémon Ninetales and Sandlash? They have an exclusive ice type form in Alola. I read it in a book somewhere. All of them reside in Mt. Lanakila, a big mountain that's really cold, the highest peak in Alola. Professor Kukui built the Elite Four there. Oh, excuse me for ranting but yeah, that's where our ice types are."*Selene would nervously laugh, she didn't want to seem annoying and rant on for hours. She'd rub the back of her neck, hoping Ethan would forgive her.*

_Ethan nearly choked on his soda when he heard that not only Raticate, but Ninetailes and Sandslash had forms too._ "Woah! So you're telling me you have more of this regional variants of Pokémon? That's wild!" _Ethan said excitedly._ "And the fact that they're ice types too! That's crazy! Do you think they changed forms to adapt to the harsh cold of the mountain? That's so sweet! I'd love to meet one!" _Ethan says excitedly. He tended to be a bit of an airhead, in fact he was pretty much the embodiment of a golden retriever if it ever became a human. However, when it came to Pokémon research, he was pretty knowledgeable._ "I'd love to take a trip down to Alola one day, maybe Professor Elm will let me tag along on his next trip there!"
