"Cool, Duke. Now, Glacier, Duke, fly yourselves here via whatever Poke'Mon you have, and you two can help me in this fight. I'm asking Glacier because I see the potential in him that will spark. Duke, if you are with me, I am waiting in Malie City. I assume you know where that is. Take Glacier as well if Salamence isn't up for the flight. If you two do, then I'll inform you of a plan I have just thought of. If not, then I'll go in myself."
He looked at Daniel and added, "Also, I may be younger than you, but I don't like that you're watching over me and telling me something my parents would. If you're this upset about me calling you a newbie, then I'm sorry. Even though you've been with Poke'Mon for a long time, Coordinators make the stage bright with beauty, not heated with action."
He looked at Tieran and asked, "Is there something you need to say? I'm here to listen, but if not, I understand. I just..... had a feeling that you wanted to throw in your two cents."
