...My name's Red. I'll be starting here after the break.

I heard that a lot of the gym leaders from back home relocated... I guess I wasn't expecting to see you all in the same place. How's the League doing, anyway?

Welcome to Smash Academy.

Another trainer, huh? We sure have a lot of them right now. I like your name though - I'll admit to having a certain fondness for red.

Knuckles the Echidna. Nice to meet you.

[punchteamrocket]

Thanks.

Yeah, I wasn't expecting to see so many...

It's nice to meet you too, Knuckles.

Nice timing, wimp.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

It's been a while. How are you?

[punchteamrocket]

Fine. You?

[blazinglizard]

You're shittin' me.

[punchteamrocket]

no wait I mean

[punchteamrocket]

You too, huh...?

[blazinglizard]

The hell're you doin' here? I don't remember ever invitin' you to show your ugly face around my turf.

...Hi.

[steelcladorange]

Oh, hello Red. It's a... pleasant surprise to see you here.

[punchteamrocket]

Hi, Jasmine. ...

...You're not a teacher too, are you?

[steelcladorange]

Ah, oh no. I'm not. I'm just a student here. I'll be a senior this upcoming school year. What about you?

I-I... really don't have the confidence to teach in front of so m-many strangers....

[punchteamrocket]

... Same here.
