No one answered her question right away. Zack had no clue what it was, nor did it seem Jenny, or Flannery. "That...is a Riolu," the old man spoke making Zack look up and then back down at it. It was a bit small, a little higher then his knee but not by very much. The blue and black pokemon seemed content with staring around the room, but what was more it seemed to enjoy staring directly at him, it's red eyes fixed on him like it was studying him. Zack fished his pokedex out of his pocket. "Riolu...the Emanation pokemon...It has the peculiar power of being able to see emotions such as joy and rage in the form of waves.....data unfinished" he was surprise to see even dexter didn't fully know what this was. "Um....wow," he said, the Riolu now content at staring at Lya for a moment before going back to him.
Everyone was a tab surprised as the old man chuckled softly, and seemed ready to leave. "Well...guess I'd better be off to the daycare..." he said, though he made no attempt have the Riolu follow. "Um...your forgetting your pokemon," Zack said to him. but that man simply laughed, saying it wasn't his, and that the egg had just suddenly been in there garden one day when they went out in the morning to tend to the pokemon. "No clue how it got there...but I'd be a cruel man to tear a little fella like that from his papa," he said, Zack felt wierd being referred to as a father.
