Haunter The terms that Niko was laying out for the Tangela seemed reasonable enough, at least from his perspective. Obviously, if the Tangela did indeed have good intentions driving it, it would be fair to expect it to be cautious about how it goes about its business, especially when not exercising caution could potentially lead to more scenarios like what'd just happened between the two parties. And it was looking like the Tangela wasn't giving any pushback in response to his request, so that was a good sign, at least. " It's nothing too demanding, I hope," Niko responded, looking away to jot down some personal notes on his xtransceiver. " Just don't antagonize people without any sort of caution or foresight, and you should be able to avoid any unnecessary trouble. Plus, if you make sure to communicate your intentions to others, then that should also help keep things from getting...heated."

Well, in truth the Tangela had no particular reason in which to push back too hard against what the human were saying / requesting of it for in all honesty the longer in which the grass type would listen to the human and the longer that their discussion as a whole would have progressed up until this point would most certainly have gotten the Tangela thinking more thoroughly through what he had been doing. Maybe there were indeed other ways in which to ensure that he would get the right culprits that were so often causing the issues when they come out here, it wouldn't take much more effort to go along with what he were already doing more just a few adjustments along with other things. So many thoughts would continue to move through the grass type's mind even when the human male would begin to speak and address him further, this would be enough to get the Tangela look up at the human in a faintly distracted manner though making efforts to nod all the same in order to show that he would understand what were being said and the like. < This is only fair and I will ensure to make more effort to differentiate between the different sized humans and observe them better in case not all are trouble makers. And if I do find such humans that cause more trouble even without being warned? They deserve to be taught a lesson. > The Tangela would come to respond quizzically after a moment. ![Tangela](https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/ruby-sapphire/normal/tangela.png) Level 14 || 140 / 140 || Male || Leaf Guard || StatusEndeavour, Ingain, Sleep Powder, Vine Whip, Absorb, Poison Powder

Haunter The Tangela was putting some consideration into Niko's words, it seemed. This was good to see, especially after the doubt that'd plagued Niko regarding the Tangela and its intentions. Perhaps assuming the worst about the Tangela was a bit harsh, but he didn't want to leave anything to chance either, and from the looks of things, his words were being heeded. " Good," Niko said, glad to see that they were seeing eye-to-eye. " Just stick to that, and I'm sure there shouldn't be much risk of things going wrong. I'm sure that's the last thing either of us want." After saying this, Niko looked around, realizing the time that'd passed ever since he and Amrock had first stumbled upon the Tangela (or, rather, since the Tangela made its presence known to them). " Now that that's cleared up, I suppose there's not much else for us here for the time being. Perhaps I should go somewhere else...Do you happen to know of anywhere near here that could be worth taking a look at?"

Well; it would seem that for the most part things had be settled and an agreement - of sorts if this were the best way to describe this - had be reached after a considerable amount of discussion in regards to the whole situation that the human man had come across and the Tangela himself were within. As it had in some way come to turn out in some essence (from what the grass type could gather at the very least) that the huamn's work seemed to resemble something along the lines of what the grass type were trying to do out here, so just maybe it were indeed worth the Tangela paying attention to what the human were suggesting? With that in mind would the Tangela simply seem to keep silent and keep his attention focused upon the human man for the longest of times, only when the human would begin to make his queries in regards to the potential of there being anything of interest for the human in the immediate area. Now this were to get the Tangela frowning deeply and for what felt like an eternity before finally seeming to settle upon something though would be careful in speaking in time, for as far as the grass type would know this may not be of interest to the man. < Depends on what you would consider worthwhile human? What are you looking for? Maybe knowing that I can suggest something suitable for you. > The Tangela responded in time. ![Tangela](https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/ruby-sapphire/normal/tangela.png) Level 14 || 140 / 140 || Male || Leaf Guard || StatusEndeavour, Ingain, Sleep Powder, Vine Whip, Absorb, Poison Powder

Haunter Niko had asked a wild Pokemon just a while ago about the local area to little success, so he wasn't really sure what sort of information the wild Tangela would be able to provide him. With how low-key things had been up to that point, it seemed unlikely that there'd be anything all too noteworthy nearby that he could be pointed towards. Nonetheless, he figured he'd give it a shot. " Well, I came here mainly for training purposes, as well as to see if any of the native wildlife would make a good addition to my roster," Niko explained. " The latter seems a bit unlikely at this point, but I suppose the former is still on the table. Is there any place near here that's good for training?"

What could only be described as something of a thoughtful look would form over the Tangela's features as the grass type would lsiten to what the human would say regarding his intention, well after all the Tangela really shouldn't be all the surprised right? For this were the typical reason in which the vast number of humans who came out here for such purposes, well the Tangela had already made the offer therefore he could in no way go back on such a thing right? < Quite picky about who joins your team huh? At least that is the impression you give off . . . . But whatever you do you human. > Well, why should the Tangela judge the human? They were entitled to make their own choices for their own reasons as much as pokemon were right? < Anyway; don't rule out any additions to your team just yet for you never know what may happen in the long run. But the training I can make attempt at some form of suggestion, for there is an area not far from here and actually just past these vines that is used as a training area of sorts for some of those who live around here, you might stand a chance of there being someone there that will be a good trainiing opportunity. > The Tangela would speak further before turning just enough to make efforts to direct the human down a path that once it had been pointed out wouldn't be hard to see. ![Tangela](https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/ruby-sapphire/normal/tangela.png) Level 14 || 140 / 140 || Male || Leaf Guard || StatusEndeavour, Ingain, Sleep Powder, Vine Whip, Absorb, Poison Powder

Haunter Niko frowned for a minute at the Tangela's disapproval. He supposed the way he said it, it could very well be interpreted as him being very picky-choosy about who he added to his roster. In his head, though, it made sense; if he was going to fight criminals and their Pokemon, something he'd already had some experience in before coming to Shula, he'd need some of the best Pokemon he could get his hands on. He hoped he could get his hands on such Pokemon, and failing that, he wished to train. Fortunately, it seemed like there might've been a good place for that some distance away from them, according to the Tangela. " Really?" Niko asked. " Well, thank you, that helps quite a bit. I...suppose I should get going, then, if I'm to make it there before it gets too late."

Now it were not as if the Tangela disapproved of the human's particular choices in just what and who he would add to his team, but at the same time there were the faintest and smallest part of the grass type that would not be able to stop himself from dissapproving - after all everyone (humans and pokemon) had their own reasons for things. After all if this human were in some form of law enforcement - or at least that were the impression the Tangela got from interacting with the human and Torchic pair - but surely that were not a good reason in itself to discriminate against certain pokemon was it? Not when any pokemon could do well in such circumstances, but whatever what did it matter to him now?
< Yes really . . . . . your welcome human, you just go now then. You still have plenty of time so no need to worry. > The Tangela would counter before seemingly managing something akin to a shrug before beginning to head off himself and leaving the human and Torchic pair to head off when they were ready and where they had been directed to.

Haunter Niko supposed the Tangela had a point about him having plenty of time to spend in the Deadfall Cliffs. Truth be told, he mostly just didn't like the idea of spending a good while wandering around in hopes of something worthy of his time. Fortunately, though, it was looking like the Tangela had managed to point him in the right direction, so he could be grateful for that, at least. Niko nodded to the Tangela appreciatively and gave a quick wave as it left. From there, he started heading in the direction that it'd pointed him in before. He still wasn't sure quite what to expect once he arrived at his destination, but he figured he'd just have to find out once he got there.

And the human would be in luck with the directions that he had been given for after the human had said his goodbyes to the grass type - who in turn would also offer it's own in turn while observing the human head on his way - for though it may be hard to distinguish the indicated path amongst the vines and other foliage that were covering the ground but it were indeed there. The human would just need to be extra careful in traversing this area for there were the risk of him potentially misstepping and in turn slipping down the slight slope - not the best thing to do if Niko would want to get hurt, so care would indeed be needed now of all times.
Though while the human male would traverse this path and make his way to whatever would wait for him it would seem to appear as if the Tangela may have deceived the human, or at least this would potentially be the initial impression the further said human would travel to the point where the previous vines and grasses that covered the Tangela's domain would come to fade away leaving in it's place a near desolate and empty area stretching out before the human.
Though hopefully the disappointment would be short lived, for assuming that Niko had been paying sufficient attention he were to find he would have a couple of near literal spear of ice being thrown his way and though at first it would seem as if such were being directed at Niko rather these would msash into the ground at the man's feet.

Haunter Stepping away from the Tangela, Niko couldn't help but notice how the odd tangled mess of vines and tall grass seemed to keep going on far past where they spoke. It almost impressed him, seeing how a single Pokemon could influence its environment so much, but it unfortunately made walking through it more hazardous than it otherwise would've been. He found himself having to be on high alert, doing his best not to trip and fall or anything of the sort, while Amrock rested in his hands as a second pair of eyes. The odd mess of foliage eventually let up, which was good, but there didn't seem to be much beyond, which was odd. Wasn't the area he was entering good for training? If that was indeed the case, had all the locals just left for some reason? Niko followed this line of thinking for a short while...but it didn't take long for it to end. After all, it was hard to miss the icicles thrown his way. He couldn't help but wonder as he stumbled back a few steps whether or not wild Pokemon reacting to new arrivals by throwing things at them was just a regular thing, but he figured there were more important things to worry about. " Who is it this time?" Niko called out, clearly upset. " If you want to get my attention, there's better ways of doing so, y'know."

Now though the wide and empty area that Niko and Amrock had been directed towards by the Tangela may have ben open and - relatively speaking - flat enough to be able to see anything that should or would have been out here, but strangely though and as easy as it should have been to spot anything or anyone that were out here it were not to be the case to begin with for Niko, as such it were only understandable that the human male would have the reaction that escaped him given the fact that it seemed as if the lump of ice had been thrown frmo no where. Though surprisingly as a result of the human's reaction towards the lump of ice being thrown his way before stumblinb backwards then calling out in a oddlu upset manner this would be more than enough to cause a certain amount of puzzlement for the 'hidden' pokemon that had been observing the new arrival. Only when the human man would called out and the tone of voice that would be thrown in would be more than enough to get the literal hidden 'ice thrower' making the effort to make itself known and seen. It would look as if a piece of the ground were moving but if Niko werre to look carefully enough he would observe that it were a Swinub who in turn would move towards where Niko stood before stopping then attempting to tilt it's head upwards in order to address the human male. < You came here in order to do training yes? This is why you came this way? It's about the only reason anyone comes here. > Would come the somewhat curt and blunt response. ![Swinub](https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/diamond-pearl/normal/swinub.png) Level 15 || 150 / 150 || Female || Snow Cloak || StatusIcicle Spear, Endure, Odor Sleuth, Powder Snow, Mud-Slap, Tackle

Haunter Niko couldn't say he was a fan of how the wild Pokemon in the area had tried to get his attention up to that point, and similarly, he found himself already wondering whether or not the unseen figure would be giving him more trouble than he signed up for. He kept a close eye out for any movement, especially low to the ground, and sure enough, he spotted something or other moving his way. Once it was close enough, he was able to see it clearly: It was a Swinub. He thought it was a bit odd to see a Pokemon like Swinub in a place like the cliffs, but figured it wasn't worth thinking about too hard. What was important was that the Swinub seemed to have an interest in why he was there. Indeed, he wasn't exactly a local to the area, so he figured it only made sense to explain his reason for stopping by. " I was told by someone nearby that this would be a good place to train," Niko explained. " If that's why you're here, then we should be able to help each other out, wouldn't you say?"

Now what the human would think of the small brown furred pokemon and it's methods of which in regards to initiating and generally getting the attention of said human would not matter to the Swinub, for she were well aware of the intentions of many trainee's - both human and pokemon alike - that tended to come to this area it were often a couple of different reasons and thus she had no reason to go through all the niceities. After all it did better all around to just get to the point did it not? More so when it had so often worked out well via this method so why change what wasn't broken? This would be the very reason that the small Swinub's already blank expression would continue to remain as such while studying the human then subsequently listening to what this being would have to say in response to her own words, of which would confirm what she had originally assumed. As such the Swinub would then come to turn to the small Torchic that were with the human for it were to be presumed that the fire type were translating for the human's benefit thus it made sense to talk through her even if her words were aimed at the human. < Your human is correct, his source is good. So if training is what he wants then training is what I am happy to offer, you can tell him that. > Would the Swinub state bluntly and to the point, for what use was there in dancing around the details for too long? ![Swinub](https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/diamond-pearl/normal/swinub.png) Level 15 || 150 / 150 || Female || Snow Cloak || StatusIcicle Spear, Endure, Odor Sleuth, Powder Snow, Mud-Slap, Tackle

Haunter Sure enough, it seemed like the Swinub was being cooperative, and it wouldn't take long for Niko to receive the response he was hoping for. From what he was able to discern, he and the wild Pokemon were on the same wavelength, so to speak, and Niko could finally get Amrock the quality sparring partner he was hoping for him. " Alright, then. If you're up for this, then...we might as well get started." With that, he bent down a little and let Amrock hop out of his grasp and onto the ground. Amrock, excited for what was soon to come, assumed as impressive a fighting stance as he could muster. " Suppose I might as well as first: Does it matter to you whether we get the first move or not?"
