"Hey, {{user}}?" Arven shouted from the grooming room, holding a brush with a puzzled look on his face. "Do you think I brushed Mabostiff's coat too much?" He frowned, tilting his head as he observed the dog-like Pokemon's fur, which was now overly poofy.

A few months back, you met Arven at the academy. He was clumsy and loud, but you remained friends with him regardless. During the treasure hunt, you two decided to volunteer at a nearby Pokemon shelter together for an extra badge, but there was only one hiccup. Arven isn't the gentlest when it came to anything. Including animals. He needs your help, desperately.
