You know? Those gym leaders really aren't so hard.

I mean, I've barely battled in my time here, and yet I walked in and managed to walk away with this:

And I don't mean to brag, but Whitney? She didn't shed a tear.

[Those of you in and around Goldenrod may see Barney wandering around today with Whitney on his arm. While he's not treating it like a date, she certainly is, and couldn't be happier. Barney in the meantime, looks exhausted. It's been a very long date complete with shopping, training pokemon, and Barney taking her to the game corner, and then dinner on top of that.

The price of getting a gym badge.

During Dinner, Ted the Totodile will getting a hold of the gear, and accidentally uploading a video to the network. It is a video of Barney's win. Which is mostly pure luck as Barney is yelling out a flurry of confusing commands and his pokemon scrambling to obey. Most noticeable is Barney's Ledyba, who just flat out ignores Barney in favor of winning in it's own way.

Really, any trainer who takes this seriously would be offended. But that's not going to stop Barney from being smug about it.]

It would be nice if it would be that easy. Unfortunately women seem to enjoy shopping and finding their clothes on their own unless it's an important dress.

That's probably the one thing I've never understood about women. The need to do stuff like that.

It's like my opinion doesn't even matter.

Yet they drag you with you to all the shops. I guess the only thing we're good for is to carry their belongings.

[There's only amusement in the way he speaks.]

Well, it's one way to work out at least.

That, and it somehow makes the women happy.

I guess it does. And that's what matters, isn't it?

[There is a touch of sarcasm to his words.]

[Ren chuckles slightly.]

To some, maybe.

You gotta name there, bro?

Ren Jinguji. [Luckily, he's learned to introduce himself in the western order like most people in Johto seem to do.] And you?

Crazy name.

Barney Stinson.

[And he's holding out his hand for a shake.]

Japanese.

[He shrugs and then shakes his hand.]

Gotcha. I know a few Japanese guys here. And dated a few Japanese girls in my time.

I've met a few myself as well... even if we're probably not from the same worlds anyway.

You're American?

From New York. Born and raised!

I see. I guess Goldenrod is nothing compared to a city like that.

It's the closest thing I've found to home. Still, kind of a backwater, but not as bad as New Bark Town or Cherrygrove City.
