His Chatot is perched on his shoulder, looking at everything with a timid curiosity that doesn't really reflect in her trainer's eyes - the excitement is full blown there, and he actually stops for a moment to breathe in the atmosphere before he sits down and produces a small audio recorder from his coat pocket.
