"[I'm a Ponyta. That's what you humans call a pokemon like little ol' me.]"
"Alright, Miss Ponyta. You definitely ain't a horse. I still wouldn't know how to ride on ya. I'm a bit too big. Why d'ya want me to be your trainer for anyways? I'm a martial artist. Only thing I know to teach is how to fight."
"[Even better, sugar.]"
"Huh?" asked a confused Ranma. He scratched his head as he sat down in the grassy field. He then folded his arms together as he tried to figure it out. A horse learning how to fight. From a human. Finally, he looked up at the female Ponyta in front of him. "I don't get it."
"[Pokemon, like myself, who want to get stronger and faster, and become more powerful, partner up with humans who want to battle against other humans with pokemon.]"
"Fight? With other pokemon? You?"
"[Are you implying something, sugar?]" the Ponyta drawled as it lowered its head to peer closer at him. The tiny flames scattered on its body seemed to have flared up a bit.
"Eh hehe heh. Nothin'! I didn't say anything!"
"[Good.]" The pokemon nodded its head, closing the subject. "[So how about it, sugar? Do you, err, what was your name again?]"
"Ranma. Ranma Saotome."
"[Right. Do you, Ranma Saotome, consent to be my Trainer?]"
"Uh, if you just want to tag along with me and have ya watch me fight, that's alright, I guess," replied Ranma. He then muttered, "Though how am I supposed to teach ya, I don't exactly know."
"[Thanks, sugar,]" murmurred the Ponyta as it nuzzled its new Trainer. "[You won't regret having 'Dances on Clover Blossoms in Spring' as your partner.]"
"Wait," interrupted Ranma, as he turned his face away from the affectionate licks. "'Dances on Clover Blossoms in Spring'? That's your name?"
"[Sure is.]"
"That's kinda long."
"[For humans to say it, I guess it is.]"
