Taran Rouge thought that Team Pergure understood how valuable he was to their entire operation. He was one of their most prominent breeders, after all, and he made them a sizable amount of money, fame, and goodwill with his various projects. He continued to hand-craft Pokemon identification necklaces for them, continued to breed them super-strong Pokemon, and continued to be the pretty-boy face prevalent in some of their more popular commercials. So the suggestion that he needed an escort to help him back to Sodalite Town from the hole in the wall village known as Diopside, he couldn't help but get annoyed. Yes, the people of Diopside Village were pretty weird. No, it wasn't anything that a six foot tall Pokemon Breeder couldn't handle.
He waited in the town square for whoever his mysterious handler was going to be, dwelling on what this could possibly mean. Maybe they were going to set him up with a breeding partner, which... well, Taran would definitely not be very enthused about that decision. He had a way of running things, and he liked keeping to that way. Maybe they honestly thought that sending a bodyguard would help him on the path from Diopside to Sodalite, in which case they were at least guilty of having good consciences. Maybe they were just bored, in which case Taran sympathized with their Schnadenfreudic methods.
At his ankles sat Snearah, his very cool, collected Sneazel. She had been on display in Diopside today, mostly to demonstrate to a few select, interested villagers how to properly care for Pokemon who were not quite as friendly as your average wild Pidgey. Snearah definitely fell into that category. She was slightly offended at her master's treatment of her today, but would get over the blow. Taran dealt with this often in regards to Snearah - she was very egocentric and thought only of her own needs and emotions. She would have no idea that she was, indeed, somewhat difficult, and helping other Pokmeon trainers sympathize with difficult Pokemon would lead to an increased care for them. Snearah yawned, pointedly not looking at Taran, staring straight ahead. For once, Cono wasn't around to cause problems, either. Just Taran and Snearah, waiting for the mystery escort. How fun.
