Sam saw Wes looking between him and his Doublade, but not saying anything. He knew that his Doublade would attract many eyes, but he just ignored it most of the time. He was used to the fact it was shiny, so it has become kinda normal for him.
As Wes answered his question, he didn't know how to react. He didn't know the person he was talking about, yet the way Wes talked about her made him feel a bit sad for both him and the pokemon in the egg. However, he shook it off his mind, and continued to get the most important stuff out of his bag.
When the two new pokemon got out of their pokeballs, Sam looked at them curiously. A Ninetails and a Krookodile. He must be quite a strong trainer. The Ninetails didn't pay much attention to him, but the Krookodile got into fighting stance as soon as he laid eyes on his Doublade. He knew Doublade wouldn't attack without Sam telling him to do so, because where Sam trusted Doublade's skills, there Doublade trusted those of Sam, and both of them knew that keeping your head cool was important in a battle.
However, before the Krookodile got his chance to attack, Wes interfered, and without saying a word, he made the big Dark-Ground type calm down. Impressive, making such an hard to handle pokemon listen to you by only staring at him. As his Doublade and Tilly were chatting with eachother again, Sam simply said: "Thanks."
After Sam got most of his stuff out of his bag, he turned to Wes and said: "There is supposed to be a point around here where you can apply for stuff like school clubs. Want to come with me?"
