[Chimera looks sympathetic at what Sorrow says. It really does remind him of what Envy was like at first, and that hadn't been a good feeling at all.]
Yes, working like a team does take practice. And you both have to be willing to help each other for it to work. One of my teammates is a Yanmega, Bicho, who is much faster than I am, but he gets hurt easier. So when we fight a battle together, I can let him hide behind me from strong attacks, and he can use his speed to distract faster Pokemon so that I can hit them better. If he wanted to be out in front all the time, I wouldn't be able to attack without hitting him. And if I refused to take damage for his sake, he'd be knocked out quicker and I'd have to face several opponents alone.
I've been good friends with Bicho ever since I was a small Larvitar. We played together all the time, and now we know each other so well that it is very hard to beat us. So maybe if you have a hard time fighting battles together, you could start out playing games like tag instead. Or hide and seek. Then you might find that you like each other better, too. It's nice to have a good friend when your trainer isn't very, ah... [He pauses, searching for the word he wants. The Blitzle probably wouldn't like it if Chimera said his trainer wasn't a good one yet.]
