Jason noted the names of the other three trainers after they said them. He also noted that he had decided to let them go before he could say anything which was rather unusual for him. "Oh, uh, my name is Jason. Jason Ashburn. I am from Kanto and it is a pleasure to meet you Professor." Jason said with a slight half smile on his face. He didn't intend on telling anybody that he was from Kanto but it just seemed to slip out of his mouth. It was almost as if Jason could already tell that the Professor was a very personable man. Jason though hoped that he could tell the Professor his story as soon as they were alone.
