If everything in the world went according to his plan, Dawn would smile at him whenever he popped up behind her, glasses glinting. She would say that it was good to see him again, and could he please tell her more about Pokemon, it would be so useful. Then, he would show off his knowledge and instead of shuddering, she would stare at him, enraptured. He would be suave and confident, and she would swoon at his feet as he carried her off with a fantastic display of skill.

At least, that is how it goes in the Victorian romance novels he has been perusing lately. He must research love carefully, so he can win her heart. Conway is a logical person, and he knows he fails at improvising new strategies, so he will go with the classics. After all, if it's worked for other people, why won't it work for him?

Tried and true is his motto, which is why he sticks to such a defensive style of Pokemon battling.

Slowpoke thinks he is wasting his time, and snorts when he picks up `Romeo and Juliet', `The Taming of the Shrew', `Love's Labors Lost', and `A Midsummer's Night Dream' at the library, to expand his knowledge base.

Conway sits at his desk, and gets to work studying romance the same way he studies Pokemon.

Alas, at the moment, all he has is fantasy.
