However, he did not take losing easily and was often left speechless after losing a battle (to the point where [[Volkner]] once referred to a post-loss Flint as a "husk"). According to his good friend Volkner he started specalizing in fire-type Pokémon after someone told him what his name meant. |

However, after meeting [[Lucas (Pokemon)|Lucas]]/[[Dawn]], he said he could sense the trainer's "aura of toughness" and encouraged them to challenge Volkner believing the trainer would be tough enough to re-ignite Volkner's passion for battling. After the player trainer challenged Volkner, Flint noted Volkner's excitement towards the challenge and, having confidence that Lucas/Dawn could restore Volkner's battling passion, returned to the Pokémon League. |

He had anticipated the trainer's arrival ever since learning how impressive they were from Volkner. Lucas/Dawn surpassed his expectations by defeating him. Flint told them they were fantastic to regardless, but then remained speechless afterwards, only able to work in saying that he had been "burned to cinders" and simply telling them to keep going. |

He would have dragged Volkner with him and they challenge Lucas/Dawn and [[Pearl]] to a double battle to see if they were worthy of taking on the Battle Frontier. Flint and Volkner were defeated, and Flint was unable to speak afterwards, which led Volkner to escort "the husk" back home. Flint and Volkner would also visit the player's Villa on random days, believing he had a right to lounge around there due to thinking the Villa was bought with Lucas/Dawn's Elite Four prize money, and he banter with Volkner about the Pokémon League needing more decorations and his belief that Fire-types are the future as well as superior to Electric-types. |

It was revealed that he and Volkner started out as rivals when they were children and eventually became friends, with Flint eventually leaving to join the Elite Four around the age of 20. As in the games, Flint tries to help Volkner regain his fighting spirit. He winds up battling Ash in Volkner's place and easily defeats him, although seeing Ash fight is still enough to inspire Volkner to accept his challenge personally. | |
