To say Nessa stumped seeing Kodaka for the first time, would be understatement. After all, how often do you rescue a girl with fox ears and a tail from a rampaging Gyarados in a lake?

Even at the Pokémon Centre, both her and Nurse Joy were very baffled by just who or what Kodaka was. For all they knew, she could have been a Ninetail or Zorua using an illusion on themselves. Indeed, Kodaka's reaction when Nessa tried head patting her was very much like said pokemon. Even if Kodaka's wiggling tail and twitching ears were fast becoming adorable to the gym leader.

However, just what Kodaka was would have to wait. She still needed time to recover from her close encounter in the lake. Although she'd have plenty of time to explain herself at Nessa's gym, with more headpats to come.

A commission from Tadadart of Kodaka getting headpats from her idol Nessa.

I'm not going to lie, having Kodaka get headpats from someone was something I've been meaning to do for ages. You just don't get anymore cuter then a kitsune waggling their tail and twitching their ears in pleasure. Even more so when it comes from someone they look up to a lot. Just hope Maya doesn't get jealous though.

So always, a big thank you to Tadadart for doing this for me. And I hope you all enjoy!
