I'm Steel and Ground type, but my connection to the ground has never been what I want it to be. [she's actually pure Steel and has Child of the Shifting Earth, but without knowing enough of her birthplace Kuvira doesn't know her own ability.] I've heard about mines in the mountains to the east. That's where I'm going this week.

[Maybe being surrounded with her element will help. anyway, there's a stilted pause as her independence conflicts with the idea that she could use help]

Someone who knows the area might be welcome.

I've been training in the mountains lately and trying to bond a shiny Teddiursa. I can come along if you want, I know them pretty well by now.

[betterthanwu]

I wouldn't mind that.

How's your Blaziken?

[footprints_on_your_face]

Still pretty feisty, but at least he listens now. I had to beat him up a little to get him to respect me again. It wasn't easy.

[betterthanwu]

I'm sure. Do they all get like that?

[footprints_on_your_face]

Not all of them. Wasabi just evolved really quickly, so I think he got a big head over it.

[betterthanwu]

Hm. I'm slow to evolve any of mine, but if they get difficult I think I can take any of them. It's worth keeping myself stronger, though.

[footprints_on_your_face]

The mines are a good place to do it, definitely.

[betterthanwu]

Have you been down there? To the deeper parts, I mean.

[footprints_on_your_face]

Not as much as the mountains themselves, but I should be able to handle it. My Pokemon and I are all pretty tough.

[betterthanwu]

I appreciate this. Where would you like to meet?

[footprints_on_your_face]

How about the base of the mountain?

[betterthanwu]

I can make that. Who are you bringing?

[footprints_on_your_face]

Let's see... I guess Lee, Pao Lin, Osano-wo, Guan Yu, and Gow.

[betterthanwu]

It's not a good place to bring a Flying-type, is it?

[footprints_on_your_face]

There's not a lot of space to fly, and there's Rock types down there. What else do you have?

[betterthanwu]

Kunti and Shreya can stay home, then. I suppose Sundar, and... Anik. My Shroomish and Ralts.

I think I can protect them. My type helps. If not, Anik can teleport.

[footprints_on_your_face]

Sounds good to me. I'll help out too if things get tough.

[betterthanwu]

Thank you.

When do you want to be there?

[footprints_on_your_face]

Tomorrow after I'm off shift? It shouldn't be too late in the day.

[betterthanwu]

Okay. What is it you do, Chie?

[footprints_on_your_face]

Me? I'm a Sword of the Savior!

[Complete with embarrassing pose.]

[betterthanwu]

[She shows a hint of a smile.]

Is announcing it like that one of the job requirements?

[footprints_on_your_face]

Oh, uh... haha, sorry. I still get kinda carried away sometimes.

[betterthanwu]

I see.

All right. I'll see you at the base of the mountain. Don't be late!

[footprints_on_your_face]

I'll be there!
