Grayson nodded with satisfaction the next morning when he saw Hideyoshi was gone. "Obviously my hand and belt striking his bare bottom got the message through to him." He said before folding his sleeping gear and putting it away. He took his Pokemon to Nurse Joy to get them a general check up. "Alright, Grayson I'll be back with them in a bit." She took them into the back and checked each of them out. She nodded with satisfaction when she came back. "If only ALL the trainers that came to me took as good of care with their Pokemon. They are all in perfect health and happy. Grayson, I wanted to talk to you about that boy. You know... you shouldn't be so harsh. I can tell he really looks up to you. If he asks again you should tell him yes. I don't think it matters what you'll do to him. He'll keep coming back and asking." Grayson sighed looking at the Nurse Joy. "I hear you, Nurse Joy I really do. But, I don't know if that's a good idea. He is reckless and disobedient, I would lose my patience frequently." Nurse Joy smiled at him knowingly. 'That's why you teach him to obey and be cautious. Just think about it, okay?" Grayson nodded and left heading down Route 117 and stopped by the Day Care Man asking him how his Ditto and Venusaur were. The Day Care Man produced an egg and handed it to him. Grayson smiled and looked at it. "I'd like to send my Venusaur back to Professor Oak please. He said and the Day Care Man took care of it. He carried the egg with him after putting it in an incubator. "If I do... choose to take him on.. perhaps he'd like a Bulbasaur.. well I'd have to make sure he could handle the responsibility. After all it'll be a good while before this egg hatches." He said to himself before making his way into Mauville City. He spent a few days at the Game Corner earning enough coins to get a Dratini egg. He smirked and decided to get it. "I imagine he would do whatever I told him for a Dratini egg AND a Bulbasaur egg. Again though... he will have to prove himself responsible enough. Lucky for him the Dratini egg definitely has a long while to hatch." He said just as he stepped out of the Game Corner and started making his way to the Pokemon Center.
