I've been thinking about the significance of our first pokémon. I find it hard to believe the species given to us are random.

[A brief pause. He's been bothered by this ever since his arrival, actually.]

The initial reaction on meeting your first is important, whether it was fear, familiarity, anger, amusement, or the more unlikely indifference. Then there is of course the more pressing question: why were we given these particular ones?

I'd appreciate your thoughts.

[He's investigating again. Action for anyone in Azalea - he'll most likely be hanging around the pokémon center, working there and all.]

_{[Cooper sounds fairly amused when he answers.]}

Maybe a little. But I wouldn't hold it against you considering the topic of discussion. Which of course leads me to ask: would you say you're a guardian?

In a sense defence attorney can be seen as guardian of the law and justice in the courtroom. [ Even though sometimes even Lady Justice herself is depicted crushing a snake under her foot, oops. ]

I didn't realize you were in that line of work.

_{[Small pause here.]}

You are interested in symbolism?

Sometimes it feels not worth of mention as I haven't been able to do any work as of late because of the recent circumstances.

It's a fascinating subject. However rather than studying it I've simply picked up a bit here and there.

I know what you mean. I don't think anyone here is able to get a job to match their skills or education. It's frustrating for the mind.

So you face the same problem yourself, Mr. Cooper?

Yes - as I'm sure you've noticed, the law enforcement isn't hiring.

It's quite hard not to notice something like that when you have been involved with it yourself.

Exactly. And it doesn't look like there's an FBI equalient here.

FBI... [ Kristoph is quiet for a moment as he thinks. ] I see. From the looks of it I'd say that nothing of that sort exists in Johto.

I noticed the lack of such an organization, yes. But I suppose I should consider it a sign of peace in this land.

I guess I can agree with that in a sense, yet as a lawyer I can't help but worry about the state of the legal system around here.

I agree that it's worrying. However, in all fairness, all crime I've witnessed here has been committed by us outsiders. Their system could be lacking in our eyes only.

[ ... ]

The system might have been feasible once, but with the growing amount of foreigners the changing situation should be dealt with accordingly.

Of course. But they don't seem to acknowledge us or the fact that this is happening in any way.
