Chapter 2, this is when the story actually starts.
Chapter 2: A Visit
Kotone arrived and headed straight for the Dragon's Den, where she was sure to find Silver. She entered the cave to see Silver and Feraligatr both kneeling on the ground, clearly tired out from training.
Silver gazed at her, then stood up and turn in the opposite direction. "I'm sorry, I'm in no mood to battle today." Feraligatr kept his spot on the ground, observing the confrontation.
"That's not why I'm here, Silver." Kotone took a couple steps closer to him.
He blushed slightly at the sound of his name leaving her lips. "Then what do you want?" He turned his head, looking slightly down.
"Professor Elm told me about what happened at the lab, when you tried to leave Feraligatr." She put her closed hand to her heart as she slowly moved closer, then glanced at Feraligatr to see it beaming. She changed her directive from Silver to his Pokemon, making her way over to the large blue gator. "You really love being with Silver, don't you big guy?" She rubbed its snout as she spoke to it. Feraligatr responded with a content grumble and Typhlosion held up a claw, proving to be happy for it as well. "Would you two be interested in lunch, and maybe training together later?" Kotone gave a gentle smile as Silver turned to look directly at her. She and Typhlosion had already taken a seat on the Den floor while Kotone rummaged through her bag for a couple lunch sacks. "Come on over, Silver. There's one for you, too."
He looked at her, now flustered. "W-were you planning this or something?"
Kotone laughed a little. "I may have stopped for a bit of food when I heard the news. I just want to be friends, Silver. I'm happy for you and your Pokemon." She gave Feraligatr another pet on the nose.
"Alright, alright." He, seemingly unwillingly, made his way over to the group.
