Chili was about to reach for it before smiling at Rhys. "Some Fire-type Pokémon have different temperatures than each other, especially depending on the species or the evolution," he clarified. For a moment there, he almost forgot that he was taking this heat-proof thermometer for himself. While Rhys may have thought that Chili would break this one too, Chili didn't think he would. If it was for Fire-type Pokémon, surely it could handle his temperature!
"For example, Magmortar is a Fire-type Pokémon with an internal temperature that can reach 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit, but Pansear is only around 600 degrees Fahrenheit. See the difference? I know this stuff! The temperatures of Fire-type Pokémon vary, so I might be able to tell!" Very carefully, Chili reached for the thermometer and plucked it from the paper towel. He stuck it under his tongue and waited for the temperature to show up.
...It felt weird to him to have to use something so specialized for creatures with a naturally high temperature.
