[She bristles a bit from that comment, but she mangoes to keep her temper to a minimum.]

Don't be. I want to stay with him.

And yeah, that's how it looks. We wouldn't even be in this mess if we just trained in the park instead of the woods...

[Now did trainers take after their Pokemon or vice versa? Poochy bristles once more, but it takes her a little longer to not be as explosive as she wants to be. She wanted help, not to scare help away.]

He didn't forget them!! ...I'm the only one. By the time Rin came back from his Other Home, the rest of the gang already decided to rejoin their old groups or make new ones. They didn't want to wait.

It doesn't matter though since I can fight these guys all on my own if I have to!!

Poochy, I'm not trying to piss you off, but Rin is being an idiot today. You can't sugar coat that. It isn't fair for you to have to deal with it by yourself even if you can handle it on your own.

[He sighs making sure, he doesn't piss off the canine with his next words.]

At least you have fire attacks, so you should be able to make short work of this. At the same time do you think Rin is going to let you fight this battle for him? He going to be a liability to himself at this point.
