[Despite having done what he could with his new form, Akira's just not satisfied.
Winning, losing, rewards.. when he'd taken up that mystery bounty, it hadn't been about any of that. With everyone's speculation having piqued his natural curiosity, he'd only wanted to learn! About the threat, about the fog, about those bones... What might studying the remains further tell him? The creature's dietary habits? A hint towards the rest of the local fauna? And what about their types? More importantly, were there enough scattered about to piece back together and discover a species he hasn't seen yet? He'd so desperately wanted to stay longer and bring whatever he could carry back with him.
Yet in the end, left to carry a wounded pokemon back to safety, it just wasn't an option.
Now in the city once again, he knows he needs to check in on those two at the clinic. But unable to hold back such overwhelming thoughts of what he'd missed out on, it's the quest board that he's returned to instead. If he can just find a group that seems capable on their own, and follow along as they do their own thing, then surely he can find the opportunity to continue his studies!
... Or, that would be the plan. But as various Pokemon come and go, the sight of one far too small showing interest in the same bounty catches Akira off guard. How interesting! Would that Pokemon count as a bear's natural prey as well? ... No, he doesn't have the tools necessary for that level of reconstruction, here. Perhaps aiming to scare them off, the Slowking heads over to approach the little one's group.]
Is your party all set? That bounty's really quite the terrifying one, you know. It'll eat you right up if you're not careful!
[Well, maybe. But with the selfish need to get back there steadily beginning to win out, he can't very well care to dissuade them that much. Then playing the role of someone concerned, he offers a gentle smile.]
I can guide you, if you'd like. It never hurts to have extra numbers.
