[Charles Xaqairy]

Since Mount Magmadyne had been a successful venture before, Charles decided to return. He tossed out Rox for transport. He wasn't quite sure which members of his team he would need this time around, but he knew that he would be needing a defensive-type soon if he was going to challenge any of the Wardens. From what he'd gathered, Steel-types were typically the most defensive, but it might be awhile before Rox evolves. They wander around for a bit while Charles looks at his Pokédex. "Hey, Rox. Think an Aggron would be good?"

Rox seemed to mull it over before answering. "On."

"That's what I thought, too. Let's see if we can find anyone from that line."

When they were nearing the top of Mount Magmadyne, Charles had Rox stop. "It doesn't look like anyone in the Aggron family is around here right now." He hops down and takes a look around. He notices a pool of magma that seemed to be getting closer to him. Intrigued, he keeps watching. As the distance closes, a head grows out of the pool.

Checking his Pokédex, he identifies the Pokémon as a Slugma. "A fire-type? I already have Cole... But, why not? Let's go, Rox!"

"On!" Rox starts the battle with a Screech, catching the Lava Pokémon off guard and lowering its defense. The Slugma shines with a white light for a second, but otherwise does nothing. Charles was confused, but Rox just continued the battle with a Stone Edge. Sharp pillars of Rock shoot out of the Earth below them and hit the fiery slug. The Slugma shines again, appearing to lose some of the damage Rox had done. Rox dives into the mountain, tunnels under the Slugma and comes out on the other side. The Slugma is trapped in a cone of sand, as if an ant lion were underneath it. It glows a light tan color, but doesn't seem to be able to much else.

With the Slugma easily trapped, Charles tosses out a Pokéball. "Alright, Slugma! You're mine, now!" With a tap and a light show, and a little shake, the Pokéball captures the volcanic slug.
