"Yes, so many breeds exist here in the Nexus and lately the population has risen greatly. To be fair, I've been looking for capable people to assist in my research on how Pokemon adapt and interact in the Nexus." He seems happy to discuss these things and even Adia's agreement to Josh's statement doesn't seem to upset the professor.
"I've noticed that many people here feel that way about battles, and even if I presented scientific facts that debunk any misconceptions, I highly doubt it'll change the minds of people very easily."
Josh, without thinking his words through, comments on the situation. "If Pokemon want to battle, why should anyone stop them from doing it?" He really sees nothing wrong with combat, just the people instigating it. That comment isn't going to win him any points with the professor either.
"Your friend seems to have a much more logical line of thinking, in comparison to your emotional reasoning. Tell me, what do you intend to do with that Pokemon you caught? Are you going to force it to battle?" Madrone is now looking at Adia. "What do you think should be done with the Pokemon?"
