Luckily for the girl, the professor didn't seem to find anything weird about her "geeking out." In fact, he took it in stride and answered her questions but did go out of his way to actually introduce himself. The professor directed their attention to some box. Claude's mind started drifting off as the professor spoke. However the phrase "stronger and faster" quickly drew it back. But he wanted to study them? An eager look crossed Claude's face as he glanced up at the Aipom on his shoulder who staring steadily at the box.
Of course the images of his Scizor back home zipping about, his Aipom completely destroying other Pokemon in a race dissipated when the Professor continued. No this was just a simple delivery. He'd been summoned all the way across the region just to be a delivery boy. Did this professor really need that many people here for this?
The girl from earlier spoke up again. She sounded almost scared by the whole idea. But her words showed she really had a reason for all of this. Of course, Claude had heard about the Shadow Pokemon. Nearly every one had heard bits and pieces here and there. He was sure the Orre natives knew a little more than him. But this girl, even with the foreign accent seemed to have a personal experience with these Pokemon. Hmm definitely more than met the eye here. He wondered what the rest of these kids were hiding.
The professor was all positives though. No these are not potential weapons of pure evil. Nope, just scales that make your Pokemon unconditionally more powerful. Definitely something to keep a close guard on.
"So Professor not to... uh doubt you. But what exactly do you need all of us for. I mean, not that I'm saying I won't do it. I'll gladly help you out. It just doesn't seem like a five man job is all."
