[Oh, so they're Pokemon...]

Are they always so angry?

[He was under the impression that Pokemon are friendly and like people. But that aside,]

I was worried that the hunger might make them angrier. I didn't know you were already helping them.

[He doesn't respond to Lance's introduction, though not out of any rude intentions. Social cues are hard. He looks at Dragonite instead.]

This is your friend? Dragonite...?

[He overheard him mentioning Dragonite collapsed. And it does look like a kind of dragon, if softer around the edges.]
