Legal Stuff: Repeat after me. DO. NOT. OWN. POKEMON.

Zephyr knelt down, and scratched behind the Growlithe's ear. "so why were you Roaring at me?" she asked, curious.
Growlithe gave her a look that said, "Because I could."

"so... you wanna fight proper? or do you wanna travel with me and my Sentret and Lunari? or do you want to be on your way?" Zephyr asked, resisting the urge to tell it that she had 'scooby snacks'.

Growlithe yipped and began running/skipping in circles around Zephyr's legs.
yay!" Zephyr said, and continued on through the jungle.

And by some cosmic power, she made it all the way through.
