[Directly across from him Cooper is in the same position, but since he's got Aidan on long range duty, he points Emily Yagyuu's way, in case he'll need her. Her best attacks right now are probably Iron Tail and Bite, so she won't be very useful at first, but if a pokémon decides to dive in she can do some damage.]
[She races over - she'll always listen to her trainer first and foremost, but she does take a moment to nose the stranger's coat in a greeting/identification, and then hops up on one of the seats to stare out the window, posture tense and rigid. She doesn't know it, but she'll be an Espeon one day as well, and the way she's grown taller and sleeker might show for how her evolution process will begin soon.]
[There's a piercing shriek on Cooper's end when Aidan scorches a good amount of feathers and one of the birds fall from the sky. It's a strategy Cooper can stand for - the Rockets aren't fighting fair, so why would he? There's a very real chance things could get very serious very quickly here and as pointed out before, he'd rather not take any chances.]
