You and Leon were seated at a table in the Inn. Sleeping did you the world of good and you were feeling way better than yesterday; both physically and mentally.

You and him were currently in the middle of breakfast, just sharing small talk when Leon suddenly seemed to remember something.

"I was meaning to ask." He started and you looked up at him. "What Pokémon do you have? That is quite a crucial detail if I'm supposed to be looking for them." He joked.

You had just put some food in your mouth and froze in place when he said that. A lightbulb suddenly went of in your head and you made a noise of excitement before frantically beeping through your Pokétch. Leon looked confused as to what you were doing but you took no head and just kept beeping. When you got to the desired app, your whole body language screamed happiness and you took off your watch, handing it to Leon. He stretched out his hand and took the device to see the small screen filled with five different Pokémon.

"These are your Pokémon?" He looked up at you for a second and you hummed happily in confirmation. He looked back to the Pokétch, studying the pictures of the creatures on it.

"The only one I recognise is Rapidash and even that looks different." Leon chuckled and you, who had finally swallowed your food, smiled at him before standing up and bringing your chair to his side of the table, sitting right next to him so that you could explain.

"I forgot I had this app. With it, I can see how they are doing!" Leon looked surprised but sent a small smile your way.

"That's great! So we know they are all doing okay right now?"

You nodded and scooted a little closer when Leon looked back to the screen, motioning him to turn it towards you slightly. "That is Torterra. He was the first Pokémon I ever got and I kind of stole him." You started with an awkward smile. "Well, not exactly stole. I was attacked by wild Pokémon with my friend and we had to use them to fend them off. The professor gave Torterra to me after though so it was all good!"

Leon had his eyebrow raised at you and you took it as a sign to stop talking about that and quickly carry on. "Next to him is Crobat. I met him in a cave when he was just a little Zubat, so cute."

"That is Luxray, I met her not long after I got Torterra." Your finger moved to each and every Pokémon as you explained.

"Next to Luxray is, as you said, Rapidash. I love her to death, she's so graceful and insists on taking me everywhere." You chuckled when you remembered one time: Rapidash had literally grabbed you by the collar and started running trough the river you were trying to cross, when you refused to let her carry you through water.

"And last but not least is Garchomp. He may look mean but he is an absolute sweetheart who'd rather chase butterflies. Although he is one fierce opponent in battles."

You finished your explanation and only then did you notice how close you had gotten to Leon while talking. You quickly returned to sitting normally on your chair, discreetly scooting it a little to the side while your cheeks flushed.

"They all sound wonderful." Leon smiled at you, not failing to notice how close you had gotten. He was slightly disappointed when you moved away but quickly shook it off. "We both have five Pokémon then!" He exclaimed and you smiled.

"So we both have a lousy sense of direction and both have five Pokémon. I'd say we make a good team." You winked at him before returning back to your original spot with your chair.

"Back to the matter at hand," Leon started. "Luckily for us, none of these Pokémon are native to Galar, so they should stick out like a sore thumb! Well, all except Rapidash but we in Galar have a different type."
