I only just met her today so I have hardly any right to comment on what kind of trainer she is. I would very much like to practice against her...when she had a Pokemon that was slightly more agreeable to cooperation...hopefully not another fire type.

I'm afraid we didn't have a chance for full introductions in the bath. I'm Lydia, as you probably guessed by now."</span>She did her best to dry and downplay her mild accent as she spoke. Jake was certainly far from unattractive, her eyes were pleased to inform her, and she rather regretted not having spied on him in the baths. Either way, one should always try their best when it came to first impressions.<span style="color: Gray">"And that was a Bulbasaur you had if I am not much mistaken.
