You confront Leblanc the Liepard in the center of town, introducing yourself before inquiring about her debtors and the terms and conditions of her business. She seems a bit skeptical about you at first, but still feels there is some merit to your proposition.

"Oh, there are plenty," Leblanc tells you with a smug grin. "Oh, nothing for you to worry about, darling. My terms are simple and fair, but there are many in debt to me that simply don't know how to read the terms and conditions and when payments are due. So when the consequences occur, well, they have no one to blame but themselves."

"Blak is one such example," Leblanc tells you with a smile. "That Zangoose was determined to start some hotel and casino, thinking Pokémon would naturally flock to it and gamble their life savings away, so I loaned him what he needed. Well, some patrons did, at first, but with his regular patrons destitute, his source of income was cut off and he has had to rely on more... well, interesting means of acquiring income. I told him I wanted the money for the loan payments, and his attempt to pay it off essentially has been only meeting half of the minimal balance and interest payments, never mind the late fee penalty charges. Oh, if he had been smart about it, he probably would have paid if all off by now, plus interest, but that's his debt, not mine. In was all in the contract."

"As for the others..." Leblanc tells you, smiling just thinking about it, "Smide owes me some money, Gloan is in deep with his gambling addictions, Fetcher and Ralice owe me quite a bit, Talag essentially declared bankruptcy not too long ago, and Voren and Clyde owe me some sizable amounts. Oh, I have it all on the ledgers. Those are the top culprits, but there are a few others that need to pay the piper!"

"Now, if you wanted to apply for a loan," Leblanc tells you, smirking a bit, "my terms and conditions are reasonable. Long-term five-year loans will involve a higher 20% interest rate, but might be more manageable to acquire the minimum monthly payment as opposed to the cheaper 15% interest short-term three-year loan, but you will be paying more Poké in time. If you can't pay the minimum month payment, well, the unpaid debt will be added to the future payments, interest accrued. And, if by some unfortunate chance the amount of your debt payment doubles the amount of the original loan amount because of missed past payments and fines, well, I have authorization to demand the liquidation of your personal assets to pay for such. It may sound scary, oh, but trust me, darling, I'm far more charming to deal with Kneed. Unlike that oaf, I don't make it a personal mission to have my clients hunted down and physically beaten for their debts. Borrow wisely, and we'll both benefit!"

"You know where to find me if you're interested, darling!" Leblanc smiles to you as she struts off. "I'll have the paperwork all ready for you!"
