Benefits to giving man Pokemon in X and Y **SPOILERS?**?

Question

I am talking about the man in Anistar city who requests you give him a Level 5 and under Pokemon. Are there any benefits to giving him the Pokemon he requests or is it just out of the kindness of my heart?

Answer 1

You get a Comet Shard from him later on. You need to wait for a few days and then go back to collect your Pokemon.

SPOILER: You also get a letter that messes with your heart.

Thanks. In a few days I'll check it out. I don't think I have a heart just yet (As i am a nobody) but I cant wait to read the letter.

Answer 2

He'll give you a comet shard after a few days you give him your Pokemon as a thank you.
This will not affect your Pokemon in any way. (wont lv up or anything). He'll just hold on onto your Pokemon.

SPOILER ALERT

After a few days, he wont give you the comet shard in person, you will just pick it up.
The Pokemon you gave him will be lying on the ground, there will be a thank you letter and it will basically say ahem he died and he ask you to take the Pokemon back and take the comet shard.
