[Sup, Johto! Jake looks extremely happy and pleased with himself. So does Stripes the Zebstrika, posing with his head held high.]

Well, I just got my first badge in Johto!

[Now he looks sheepish.]

Though, I don't think Gym Leader Falkner really appreciated how it all went. Eheh....

[Stripes snorts and looks like he could take on anybody. Someone got an ego boost after a successful gym battle.]

What's the second gym like, now that I'm thinking of it? I've only heard that the Goldenrod City gym has...some issues.

[PRIVATE TEXT TO DAVE STRIDER]

[Now, Jake's dumb, but he's not stupid. He thinks he can understand that after Bro left, Dave might be a wreck. He'd be the same way if Jade had left like that.]

Mr strider i have a query for you!
Are you up for a sparring match?
Im absolute shite with a sword or anything resembling a blade but im good at unarmed combat if thats anything!

Well, originally I was going to see how a Pokemon Farm works, since they raise Pokemon there instead of traveling with them. And that sounded cool. Then I decided to see if I could get a Ponyta from them, but Braidku gave me a Ponyta egg so now I'm heading there to just see them raise Pokemon.

And learn to ride a horse.

I figured if I'm going to travel everywhere I might as well do it proper wild west style. With a horse and a cowboy hat! ...I need a cowboy hat, that's on my shopping list now!

Oh, that makes sense.

Not a bad idea to learn how to ride them! I've been trying to get a feel for horseback riding myself. Though, Stripes never seems to want to go at a slow pace....

Stripes... one of those electric zebracorn things?

So far Wildfyre isn't keen on slow, I'm hoping to work on that while I'm there.

Zebstrika, yes!

I wish you luck. They're as stubborn as mules.
