[Charles Xaqairy]

After Charles' last near-encounter with an Aron, he decided to head back to Mount Magmadyne to test out Rox's Moves. Using Rox as transportation, Charles made good time up the Mountain. It seemed like Rox was getting better at traversing the terrain.

"Okay, Rox. I'm going to have you attack some rocks for now, okay? If another Pokémon shows up, though." Rox seemed to understand, so Charles hops down. "Alright, let's start with Iron Tail."

[Charles Xaqairy]

When a small, orange pig darted out in front of Charles, he nearly fell over. Rox had moved on from Iron Tail and was practicing Stone Edge and Rock Blast. Rox looked like he was getting exhausted, so Charles told him to rest for a bit. For some reason, the pig was sniffing the area. Thinking that it was looking for something, Charles kneels down and catches its attention. "Hey, little guy. What're you looking for? Need any help?"

The Tepid suddenly jump and turned around, glaring at Charles. Charles held out his hand, palm up. "Come here. I won't hurt you." The Tepig started to sniff the air, smelling Charles from a distance. It slowly inched its way up to Charles and started to sniff his hand. Suddenly, the Tepig chomped down. All of the color in Charles' face seemed to drain away, but he kept from screaming out.

Confused, the Tepig looked at Charles and tilted its head. "Tepig?"

Charles reaches into his pack and pulls out some food. "Here. You seem to be hungry." The Tepig sniffs the food before scarfing it down. "There's more where that came from. Wanna join me?" He pulls out a Pokéball and holds it out to the small pig. Without hesitating, the Tepig presses the button with its nose and is enveloped by a red light, letting itself be caught by Charles.
