Elio's good with kids, unsurprisingly. If we don't count his generally nurturing and magnanimous demeanor, Elio has experience dealing with and properly raising children - whether they be human or Pokemon.

When it comes to Pokemon, Elio would willingly assist his Ranger best friends nurturing newborn Pokemon and their parents who were trapped in dire situations; this tends to happen quite frequently during his Unovan travels because of the machinations of Ghetsis and his hired Pokemon Hunter goons. Later, during his "partnership" with the Aether Foundation, he was forced to do temp work despite being a Team Skull Admin - which naturally includes caring for abandoned, injured or newborn Pokemon that would later be put up for adoption.

In terms of humans, a small portion of his fans is younger kids who just received their first Pokemon - a lot of whom are also fellow New Torkers. So typically, there would usually be a group of kids that would want to spend time with Elio; though his time with them was usually brief, he would entertain them, tutor them about Pokemon and battling, or simply help them with any problems that they may have to the best of his ability. Additionally, during his academy days, he would spend time at the orphanage where Ashe grew up - which was tailored to kids who either came from or lost their families to the Ultra Wormholes and Spatio-Temporal anomalies that commonly occurred throughout the city. Whenever possible, he would assist Ashe, the older children, and the staff in taking care of the younger crowd; though done out of the goodness of his heart, it somehow caught wind with the press and he received a lot of publicity for it.
