[Ryuunosuke has been trying to train his Pokémon today. Being productive was never this frustrating back home.]

[Then again, he is trying to train a Magikarp. Obviously it isn't going well. So he gave up on that and was returning to Goldenrod when he noticed the Steelix.]

Whoa...

[He rushes over to watch the battle, grinning. The fox is spitting fire, the steel snake has some guy riding it, and obviously, this is the coolest thing he's ever seen.]

Cool! You go, man!

[...What do you mean he should probably stop the battle? That the Steelix looks like it's in pain? Or that the trainer is probably getting severe burns from this? It looks cool. That's ultimately all that matters!]

[When Nagara lets Kimblee down, Ryuunosuke starts clapping. Loudly.]

Wow, that was the coolest thing I've seen in Johto! You're amazing! How did you do it? Like, how did you manage to stay on?

[Hope you don't mind the sparkle-eyes and your new adoring fanboy, Kimblee!]
