Yuu

Bjyerlfal City || Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory || Late Morning

As Yuu investigated the vicinity, he scowled and raised an eyebrow out the comment from the gyaru as he shook his head. And she had the gall to accuse him of having an ego. As that thought went through his head he felt a small pat at his side, noting that Jojo was pressing his paws against the side of his leg. The purple-haired boy couldn't help but ruffle his hair as he continued his observations. The only thing of note he saw was a door on the far end on the factory floor. Yuu jutted his head in the direction of the door as he took a step forward, encouraging Jojo and Vivi to follow him. As he took a few steps forward, he paused. Looking back he saw Vivi floating around in place, looking around everywhere. A small sweat droplet formed on the side of his temple as he looked at the Rotom-phone, calling out, "Vivi? Are you alright?" in a concerned, puzzling manner. And as if on cue, everything broke out into a cacophony of sounds. The creaking machinery roaring to life, the TVs abuzz with static and flashes of old commercials, to even a spine-chilling laugh that echoed through the factory. As if on reaction, Yuu's head jilted to the side as he took a defensive pose, his eyes fluttering about as he took in the visuals, his ears listening to the chaos of what was playing. In spite of his position, he kept a relatively cool head in a factory that seemed to be slightly colder than before, though the same probably couldn't be said for Jojo. The Riolu had broken off from his partner's side, dashing forward and looking around the place with renewed fervor, squinting as it tried to discern what was going on. He even seemed to attempt to try and feel for whatever caused the factory to spontaneously come to life. Of course as worried as he was, Jojo also whipped his head around to check up on Yuu. Jojo sort of expected Yuu to be at least mildly concerned, but from what he witnessed, there was a strange serene aura swirling about him as he looked over to Vivi. The Rotom-phone looked to be having the time of their life as they whirred with excitement, buzzing and ringing as if to call out to someone or something. Jojo's arms drooped as it stared in bewilderment at Yuu as the Pokemon walked up to their partner and tugged on their pants, "Riolu?" Yuu didn't seem to take note of his partner at first as he stared up at the roof of the building, prompting Jojo to follow suit as he continued calling out to his partner. However the moment he did his crimson eyes widened as he pointed upwards and onwards at a familiar figure dashing across the scaffolds. Yuu silently nodded to his partner, affirming his thoughts. Looks like they found her. While his eyes drifted over to the small flight of stairs his attention seemed to be focused elsewhere as he involuntarily retrieved an empty Pokeball from his bag. As he did this, the rage that was once in his eyes vanished completely, instead being replaced with a glint of curiosity as a small grin crossed his lips. Of course his thoughts were rudely interrupted by the screeching of a terrified harpy, with Vivi jiggling in midair similar to how someone might recoil in shock. Yuu shook his head, pinching the bridge of his nose as Vivi floated over to Chloe, floating around her and giggling at the frenzied state she was in, even doing a little twirl. "Not a bad question to ask your newest partner, Yuu piped up, striding right by the ninja girl with no hesitation as he stood in front of them before gesturing to one of the TVs, "but I think I can easily answer that." Yuu paused for a moment, sucking in a bit of air as he ignored Chloe's howls before continuing, "Machinery coming to life that shouldn't be? TVs suddenly powering up and playing commercials? This chill in the air? While the Camphor AI mentioned that there's a little bit of power left, I doubt it would be enough to power up a good chunk of this factory..." Yuu's hand suddenly contorted, leaving a single finger pointing directly at the TV he gestured to earlier. "Unless that power came from a particular Pokemon," as he stated this he turn his gaze confidently towards the TV. "A Rotom."

Bjyerlfal City || Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory || Late Morning

"Rio," Jojo spoke up, instantly breaking the short amount of silence that had occupied the space as he looked up at Yuu with a serious glint in his eyes before Yuu could study the room even further. Without missing a beat, the purple haired boy rotated his head to glance down at his partner, noting the rather solemn stare Jojo was giving him which gave Yuu some pause, "You alright there Jojo? You sense something?" There was a lot on Jojo's mind, that was something Yuu could at least discern, though if he had to guess it had to do with that imbecile from earlier. As if on cue, the Riolu frowned a little, not knowing what he was thinking but still having a general idea of how he was feeling based on his aura. Yuu ruffled his hair and sighed, frowning in response as the Riolu began to softly growl out something to dispute his own feelings. Of course before he could even formulate a response, Jojo hopped back at the sudden interjection of Chloe, which Yuu took more than enough notice of. His face began to visibly darken as he shoved his hands into his coat pockets, glowering at the girl with a fierce, fiery glare. Jojo obviously didn't like what he felt between the two, tugging on the jacket as a means to try and get his attention, even calling out to him, but it was for naught. Even Vivi's buzzing and hair tugging didn't even seem to illicit any sort of response from the boy as the Rotom phone whirred at a rapid pace, worried. As Yuu listened to her first gripes, he couldn't help but close his eyes and dismissively sigh, sounding all sorts of done and irritated. To him it was nothing more than garbage as he pinched the bridge of his nose and mused silently, "Gods I hope not," when it came to him having to listen to her blabber on with nothing to contribute. What followed to him was the most backwards-assed, mental Pokeathlon gymnastics he had ever heard. Did she even listen to herself speak?! The only thing she was even right about was, yes, Jojo is precious and thats it. These whiny assumptions gave Yuu a bit of a headache as he openly grit his teeth and growled himself, but the final nail in the coffin was the accusation at the end. The moment she said those words he was as still as a statue as his eyes opened, burning, smoldering, glaring with enough force that it could reduce someone to cinders. Vivi had stopped tugging on Yuu and was staring back at Chloe as they began floating over to her with malicious intent, ready to scare her the moment she finished her text. But it never came. Instead Yuu beat them to the punch, pointing an accusatory finger at her, "Alone? Appreciating him? He knows I appreciate him, he was the one who chose me after all... and unlike your partner, he had a choice since I didn't need to buy him. The only thing your partner has is a worthless, two-faced-" Before Yuu could finish his admonishments, the ninja girl had stepped in with Aster and her newly minted partner, the Magnemite from earlier. His glare shifted her, his eyes jutting between the paralyzed Aster to the floating eye before clicking the roof of his mouth before throwing one of his hands up and doing a quick flick in the air as he turned to walk away. "Hmph, forget it," Yuu growled, leaving the two girls behind as he marched into the room without a thought, pausing and glaring back at Chloe before feeling a tug on his coat and looked down to see a disappointed Jojo. The rough edges around his face gradually began to soften as he looked away from his partners big crimson eyes, feeling partially guilty but also vindicated for his own thoughts and actions. "Such a bitch... seriously, we're the reason she hasn't scurried back to a Pokemon Center with her petty lip service..." Left to ruminate in his thoughts, he didn't notice Jojo was also looking back at Chloe with an equally disappointing look in his eyes as Yuu went about investigating the rest of the room, seeing if there was anything lying around that they could use, or maybe an open doorway to pass through another part of the factory.

Yuu

Bjyerlfal City || Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory || Late Morning

Schlap! A small, stinging sensation swept through the side of Yuu's face before he could even spray Snuggle's with the potion. He didn't so much as flinch from her strike, though he was now glowering at the gyaru through gritted teeth. He couldn't help but tightly grip his hand around the potion, as if forming a small fist, though his index remained gently positioned over the trigger. On the other hand, his partner had finally managed to extract the steel ball from the Snubbulls mouth, though in the process he ended up taking the brunt of the damage that was directed at her. Jojo grit his teeth as he held the Pokemon up, staring with determination as the shock of electricity coursed through his body. In spite of the pain, he held on as much as he could before a small red and white ball collided against the Magnemite. The usual red energy of the Pokeball enveloped the magnet Pokemon before clamping shut and landing in Jojo's arms. The Riolu cradled it with bated breath as it began to roll around in his arms, feeling the light resistance of the Pokemon before hearing a resounding click. Then it stopped. Jojo tilted his head as he looked curiously at the Pokeball, giving it a few rubs, a tap, and then holding it up to stare at it before cheerfully exclaiming "Riolu," with a massive grin. Jojo looked over to his partner, victoriously pushing it up as if to proudly display what they had all done, only to lower it back to his chest level the moment Yuu didn't respond and instead was greeted with Yuu's infuriated glare. Granted it wasn't levied at him, but with aura reading and the fact that Vivi was abuzz with panic, that was more than enough to warrant a worried look from him. Yuu on the other hand was seeing red, uttering in a scathing monotone "A friggin' psycho." The violet haired boy's trembling hand continued to squeeze the potion in a tight vice grip, his knuckles turning a pale white as he heavily sighed. Suddenly, Yuu's clenched hand jerked up, finger flicking off the trigger of the potion as he instead, alongside the nozzle of the potion, jammed his finger a few inches away from Chloe's face, "I don't want to hear that coming from a half-baked moron!" There was a flood of vim and venom laced in his words as he sniped back at the girl, not even noticing that Vivi had rushed over to try and calm Yuu down. "And to think, you actually had me believing you had a lick of sense, but no. You proceed to do... whatever you actually did instead of going to the lab for your friggin' job, toss around important equipment like its as replaceable as your second-hand clothing, and for the Cheri Berry on top, slap the person trying to heal your partner," as he continued to deride the gyaru, Jojo had now just joined in, crimson eyes quivering as he pleaded for Yuu to stop as well, even bumping the ball and crying out to him with all his might, "Riooooolu!" Yet it fell on deaf ears. "I can't fathom why she hired you. She made a mista-OW!" Yuu suddenly winced a bit as he felt a sharp pain shoot through his arm, causing him growl at the end of that sentence as the hand holding the Potion flinched away from Chloes face and towards the floor. On instinct, Yuu whipped his head to the side to stare at the culprit, only to find a worried Jojo staring up at Yuu, looking not only a little sad but just as disappointed as the blue glow around his paws began to dissipate. Yuu was still heated up but that little Bullet Punch was enough to take him out of that negative trance, if only for a bit as Jojo began to cry out to him, "Rio rio, riolu," before jutting his head out at Chloe. The violet-haired trainer looked up for a minute and just stared at her. He couldn't help but silently glower, recalling Jojo's capabilities, before it merely softened into a small frown and huff. "Whatever... just take this and heal her yourself," Yuu huffed, gingerly placing the Potion he was going to use on Snuggles in front of Chloe before turning around and rummaging through his own bag. Vivi, who was roughly tugging at his hair, seemed to have stopped and let out a buzz of relief. "As for you," Yuu added, his tone still coarse, produced another potion from his bag before extending an arm out to Jill, "I'd recommend you heal up your new partner and get looking for a Paralyze Heal for Aster; I'll do the same... speaking of the former." Yuu glanced over at Jojo who was following close by, delicately cradling the Pokeball in his arms as he approached Jill. While he was still a smidgen down, he did his best to keep his smile up and held up the Pokeball containing the Magnemite to Jill, exclaiming in the best cheerful tone he could, "Riolu!" Once Jill took the Pokeball and whether or not she took the Potion or not, Yuu would pivot around and observe the vicinity before shoving his hands into his pockets before muttering, "Anyways, lets get going; Clarissa isn't just gonna find us after all." As he stated this he would begin walking towards one of the openings and would enter into the next room and attempt to look for any discernible features or other doorways they could go through.

Yuu

Bjyerlfal City || Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory || Late Morning

Yuu watched as the Magnemite not so much 'soared' but slid in a sense through the air as Jojo launched it towards Chloe before his eyes shifted over to the defensive gyaru guarding the ninja. The boy clicked the roof of his mouth as they naturally drifted over to Snuggles catching the steel-type in a fiery vicegrip and dragging it down. He snorted, "Oh look, you have a sense of initiative; guess I didn't have to push you, although," there was a pause as he watched the scene, grimacing a little. However he caught the ninja pulling out a Pokeball and honed in on that before staring back at Snuggles. In an instant he was performing a short dash forward as he pocketed the capsule and instead rolled out a Potion into his hands. With another he pointed directly at the two Pokemon, " Vivi, keep an eye on things around the vicinity and check up on Aster to see how she's doing! As for you Jojo, use Quick Attack to get over and extract the Magnemite from Snuggles mouth and hold them steady for the ninja girls pokeball! I don't know if Snuggles can take another hit but I know you can!" The Rotom-phone froze the moment Yuu directed them towards the mischievous Aipom, recalling what happened the last time as they responded with a slightly reluctant whir and what almost looked to be pixelated sweat marks on its screen. Creaking around, Vivi slowly began to float towards the toppled over Aster and kept a healthy distance, whirring and making a bunch of electronic sounds, asking if she was OK and generally if she needed a little bit of help. "Rioooooooooolu," Jojo bellowed out, bending his knees as he dove forward and launched himself off the machine. The pokemon was able to easily bridge the distance in seconds, arriving in front of the crackling and very angry metal ball. Quickly seizing the two magnets on the side and attempting to extract the Magnemite from Snuggles mouth, intending to not only hold the steel-type in place but take a hit for Chloe's partner. As for Yuu, he'd be close behind, sliding onto the floor with finesse as he pointed and aimed a Potion at Snuggles. If she was about to eat another Thundershock before Jojo could intervene Yuu would quickly spray the Snubbull with the potion to avert her from fainting. If not, he'd hold off and wait until the dust had settled before he'd go about healing both his own partner and the gyaru's.

Yuu

Bjyerlfal City || Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory || Late Morning

Yuu recoiled slightly at the sudden attitude he was being given by the AI professor, listening to it... or her mouth off at the boy. The contradictory comment at the beginning did catch him off-guard as he grumbled to himself, "Note to self, treat the AI like an actual human being." Beyond that he took mental notes of what they could potentially find, ranging from a potential top 1% Rattata, to Trubbish and maybe even Grimer, as well as potential ghost types... now that he thought about it. There was a record scratch in his brain as his mind began to rewind to an off-handed comment he made in the lab and made him ponder on one particular subject. "Vivi and I had a feeling this place was haunted and that the doors could be the result of paranormal pokemon just trying to mess with Clarissa... but the fact that there's electricity... I wonder if the front doors are controlled by a parti-" Just as Yuu was bringing his thoughts together, AI Camphor ended the little explanation with a rather crude insult. For an advanced AI, it or she was certainly childish, but nonetheless it did cause a visible vein on to pop out of Yuu's forehead as he brandished a toothy, lopsided frown. "For an AI that doesn't seem to care, you seem to be quite ins-" Before he could even complete his retort a rather angry Magnemite popped out from behind the Terminal, taking Yuu off-guard as it threw a Thunder Wave at Aster. Jojo and Vivi on the other hand looked prepared to skirmish with the steel-type as the Riolu took up a fighting stance and focused its crimson eyes squarely on the Magnemite. Vivi on the other hand was buzzing and whirring challenges at the new Pokemon whilst weaving in positive reinforcement for the team and generally cheering them on since they were unable to fight. "Oh no you don't, Q-," a bit too late to the draw as he witnessed the sparks make contact with the Aipom, causing her to inelegantly slam onto the floor with as much grace as an Iron Ball hitting the ground. Yuu couldn't help but wince a little, still listening to the information AI Camphor was providing. Even with this setback, this potentially furthered his theory, though he still needed a bit more to confirm it, "Say AI Camphor, think you can provide any insight or information about what caused the factory to shut down, I want to check something." As he posited his question Yuu took in a deep breath before glancing at the window for a second to make sure nothing strange happened before glancing over to the Snubbull before looking back to the gyaru. "Looks like someone is raring for a fight. Oy Chloe, get your Snubbull ready to use Fire Fang! And if either of you are interested in catching the Magnemite, I'd recommend readying a Pokeba-," before he could even complete his statement, Yuu heard a soft woosh pass by as he slightly crooked his neck in the general direction of the sound... only to notice a small projectile being launched out of the corner of his eye and... "Seriously, you have a friggin' slingshot?!" The violet-haired young man had to resist making another comment on the fact that while this was a battle in the wild, she probably shouldn't do that in an official match, followed with other criticisms... but he preferred for everyones partners to not be paralyzed. "Ugh, whatever, Jojo!" Swiftly pivoting to face down the Magnemite, Yuu pointed directly at the steel ball as he guided his partner, "Use Quick Attack to get behind the Magnemite and quickly launch it," there was a pause as Yuu rotated his arm 180 degrees upwards and aimed a finger- "... directly at Chloe." "Rioooooooooooo," the small Pokemon let out a battle cry as he rushed forwards into the fray, utilizing his burst of speed to dash by the Magnemite who was hopefully blindsided by Jill's unconventional attack. Instead of hopping up immediately he ran at the terminal and wall hopped off of it, keeping his burst in momentum as he dove towards the Pokemon, looking to smash the Magnemite with a flurry of blows and send it flying at Chloe.

Yuu

Bjyerlfal City || Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory || Late Morning

Just before Yuu would slide on in, he would prop his foot against the window sill and lean on top of his knee just before slightly tilting his head to glare daggers at Chloe. He largely ignored the obtuse and invalid insults from earlier, though the latter one seemed to catch his attention as his piercing gaze was just as deathly as he opened his mouth, almost ready to fire back. He ended up stopping himself before responding with any sort of vim and venom, sighing and grunting to himself before replying with a curt, "Whatever," before deftly sliding through the window with an adept amount of grace. Vivi just floated through without much fanfare, but Jojo on the other hand looked a bit at Yuu with awe before hopping up onto the window and balancing himself. The crimson eyes shifted to his partner, witnessing how Yuu seemed to land without no issues and was nonchalantly dusting himself off. Puffing his chest out loudly, Jojo let out a resounding "Riolu," that echoed into the musty old factory before hopping upward and forward into the depths of the decrepit building. As the Pokemon temporarily soared for all about two seconds, he attempted to duck into a roll before slightly skidding as he made his landing and attempted to do what he thought was a cool pose... before promptly letting out an enormous sneeze that reverberated throughout the factory as well. The little pokemon let out a slightly dejected sigh and shrug, but not before feeling a hand gently ruffling his head. He peered up, feeling a familiar sense of warmth from his partner as he stared at Yuu's bright smile, "Don't let a little sneeze ruin what you were trying to do; I think you did a good job and I think you'll do an event better job next time, so chin up!" Upon hearing those words of encouragement, Jojo smiled back before running over to tackle hug Yuu's leg. Despite his initial misgivings with the gyaru, Jojo helped melt those feelings away... or at the very least temporarily pushed them to the back of his mind. Still he didn't bother moving as he didn't want to disrupt Jojo, remaining still as he surveyed the vicinity, causing him to deeply frown before muttering, "How the hell did she get to the foyer." At first glance there were other paths that lead deep into the factory but none that lead directly to the foyer that Clarissa mentioned. That left him a little concerned, and as if on queue both Vivi and Jojo took the rather sullen and focused demeanor of Yuu into account, whether it was the nuances of his features or a direct reading of his aura. "Rio?" Jojo was the first to speak up as he backed off from snuggling against his trainers leg and tensed up a bit, looking around for any sorts of activity going on in the area. The way he spoke up sounded more like he was asking what was wrong before going on guard as Vivi hovered around Yuu's head, humming with a low static. "Vivi, you realized what was going on since we've entered huh," Yuu responded to Vivi, to which the Rotom Phone flitted around in a way that resembled a nod before floating down to Jojo's level and looking at him. Following that, a soft amount of static and whirs began to be emitted from the Rotom Phone, he began to explain the situation in a decent amount of detail, leaving Yuu to talk with the other two. "Hold on, there's something off about this whole sitch; Chloe," Yuu waggled a finger directly at the blonde girl, "keep an eye out on the window and let your Snubbull have some breathing room in case we encounter any ghost Pokemon... So." Popping out the Pokedex, Yuu began tapping through the miniature device to get to the AI Camphor application, only to pause briefly at the mention of briefly hearing where the ninja girl came from. So she was from Sinnoh as well... Yuu was abruptly side tracked with this new information as whatever information he had on mind scattered to the wind, only for Vivi to give the violet haired young man a soft headbutt... phonebutt(?) to the face. Blinking, Yuu still was mildly distracted by the new revelation and kept a cautious and suspicious eye on Jill before clearing his throat and looking down at the AI Camphor that popped up on screen. "Query: My group is currently in the Abandoned Stellar Toy Co. Factory. There seems to be signs of functionality within the factory, such as creepy fluorescent lights and the fact that a terminal nearby looks to still have functionality. Got any advice on how we can approach going through here, as well as any specific types of Pokemon we might encounter?" As he relayed this question to the AI, Yuu glanced up to see Aster approaching the terminal as well, curious to a fault from what he could tell. Jutting his head over, Yuu began to follow the Aipom as well to investigate as well, with Jojo and Vivi closely accompanying him.

Bjyerlfal City || Pokémon Center || Late Morning

"So, this is Stellar Toy Co.," Yuu mused aloud in a nonchalant voice for no other reason other to announce his arrival as he ducked through the hole in the fence and emerged on the other side with his hands in his pockets. His partners, Jojo and Vivi, were both close behind, with Jojo hopping over the hole before landing and striking a pose, "Riolu!" Vivi on the other hand floated over the fence instead of simply going through, and was whirring and buzzing with excitement, puffing their chest or whatever constituted as a chest for a Rotom-phone out. Trudging forward, Yuu's eyes shifted between the ninja girl, the gyaru who he presumed was Chloe, the Snubbull that was resting in her bag, and Aster's butt sticking out the side of a window. Yuu seemed relatively unfazed by the Aipom monkeying around as he grunted before looking up into the skyline and squinting. The boy frowned for the umpteenth time before deftly whipping out the Pokedex and attempted to scan the Pokemon flying over the factory. "So, you're the girl that came to the lab late... lemme guess: too busy shopping for some new clothes and ended up being fashionably late or some crap?" Yuu's tone shifted when he finally addressed Chloe, not even giving a smidgen of niceties with his cold, sardonic comment. As he did this, he would wait to see if anything would pop up on the Pokedex before moving onto scanning Chloe's Snubbull, not giving the AI Professor a chance to relax as he continued talking in a disconnected manner. "Eh, whatever your justification is I could care less. Point is we're all here to help Clarissa out for one reason or another." Yuu rolled his eyes as he sighed, grousing about the situation as he listened to AI Camphor's half-opinionated, half-factual information with aplomb. Once she was finished with her response, the violet-haired boy would deftly pocket the Pokedex before staring down the door with a commanding gaze before glancing over to Jill who was standing nearby the door, "I'm guessing you already tried the door." In spite of this passing comment, Yuu would follow up by putting all of his might into forcing the rusting doors open. While he was busy with his own attempts, both of his partners were both up to their own investigations. Jojo on one hand was an ever inquisitive little Riolu and was blatantly curious about Pokemon snuggled up in Chloe's bag, so much so that he strolled over to the Snubbull and got up on the tips of his little beans and leaned in slightly to get a better look at her. "Rio," the Riolu chimed in, slightly tilting his head, causing him to do a little bounce to maintain his balance. Regardless, he hopped around, continuing to inspect the pink creature before finding himself in front of her once again. Instead of looking like a Riolu attempting to perform ballet, Jojo firmly planted both of his feet back on the ground and relegated himself to looking up at Snubbull... briefly. Once he regained his bearings, Jojo would go on to hop up and down with unbound enthusiasm and a massive smile on his face, waving one of his paws in the process. "Riolu!" There was warmth in his excitable exclamation, no doubt trying to introduce himself and befriend the fairy type in the process. Vivi on the other hand, despite the initial misgivings, cautiously floated towards Aster. Instead of heading inside like the Aipom, kept a somewhat healthy distance away in their mind. In truth they were still within range to get grabbed by the mischievous monkey, but they were more curious about what lied inside, peeking in to survey the area and see if there was anything worth taking pictures of. As for Yuu, no matter how much effort and strength he put into it the door would not budge. "Uggh, damnit," Yuu cursed at his own inability to force the rusted-over doors open as he backed away, running a hand through his hair. Was a fools errand, but it didn't hurt to give it a shot himself. "Yep, looks like you did..." As he grumbled over this, Yuu's eyes shifted back over to the window, "Whatever misgivings you have ninja girl, best get over it as we don't have a lot of options to get in... so, lets stop wasting time and get to it; come on Jojo, lets follow after Aster and Vivi's example." The Riolu stopped bouncing up and down with unmatched and unbridled delight before cheerily chirping out "Rio," before bounding to Yuu's side and walking alongside him. Clearly he wasn't even going to wait for the two to sort out their own feelings on the manner as he forged ahead, undeterred by the conditions of the dilapidated factory. In spite of his indifferent visage, the steps he took told a different story. Every step he took exuded confidence and despite the urgency of the text, he was much more relaxed than one might expect. Wouldn't be the first time he went somewhere haunted and it definitely wouldn't be the last.

Bjyerlfal City || Pokémon Center || Morning

Yuu attentively listened to Remi's entire explanation, with Jojo and Vivi following their friend's example. In spite of this, however, there were mixed reactions to the noodle incident Remi had with a place known as Stellar Toy Co.; Yuu easily stifled his own giggle but couldn't snuff out the small smile that followed with Jojo tilting his head with utmost curiosity and put a paw up to his mouth, as if trying to piece together some massive conspiracy. Vivi was a whole lot of static, ranging from a bit of fuzz to an electronic buzzing - a clear giggle based on what they sounded like. Still, what followed was a brief explanation, followed by a determined proclamation. Yuu chuckled as he heard this, "That is, if you can keep up with me," as he proclaimed this, his features became a lot sharper as he pointed directly at the boy with a confident, toothy smirk, "While I do enjoy a challenge, I don't plan on letting any of my partners down." As Yuu declared this, Vivi jostled onto the side of the purple-haired boys head, crackling in agreement as they did their best to echo his sentiment in support. Jojo, on the other hand looked back up at Yuu with his crimson eyes with clear confusion on his face, "Rio," the Riolu voiced his concerns to no one in particular as he squinted at something within his partner. "Er, Jojo," As soon as Yuu called his name that jolted Jojo out of his trance, losing his line of thought as he looked back up to a bemused Yuu, "Is there anything wrong? Tired? Hungry? Something on my face?" Jojo slightly frowned, removing Yuu's hand from his own and gesturing for him to come closer. Yuu was rather unaware of his partner's intention but dipped his head down closer in good faith, only to have his own hair ruffled by the Riolu. Was he... patting him? Yuu paused for a moment before remembering that his partner was a Riolu. Right. Nothing got past him. "Heh, thanks little buddy," Yuu crooned as he briefly hugged Jojo before moving him off his lap and setting him on the floor before getting up himself. "I'll be right back in a sec', gonna go buy some stuff from the Pokemart and get some chai," Yuu instantly announced his intentions as he gestured for Jojo and Vivi to follow after them as he walked over to the section of the building with basic trainer items and materials, quickly purchasing ten Pokeballs and five extra potions for the trip before heading over and placing an order for Chai. While in the midst of this he glanced back over at Remi and Nevine, specifically looking over in the latters general direction when it came to her and the Slakoth. Right, he got so into the battle that he forgot to scan the two Pokemon! While Jojo was busy chatting with Vivi (and taking pictures in the process), Yuu went to toy around with his Pokedex before noticing he had a notification. Tapping on the screen, he blinked as he saw a massive help request from Clarissa about... a Stellar Toy Company building. Yuu's neck creaked and craned back almost comically to Remi as he set his gaze upon him sighing and shaking his head. "Well, at least she's detailed with her request I'll give her that," Yuu thought to himself as he paid up for his chai and took a sip as he walked back. Jojo and Vivi, in the meanwhile, were still taking pictures, but followed after Yuu as soon as they noticed he was leaving. They took note of his inherent interest in the Pokedex, with Vivi easily floating up to get a quick glance at it whilst Jojo had to jump up and latch onto Yuu's arm before scrambling back up to his perch and leaning over to look at it with renewed interest as well. As he took a seat once again, he took note of the influx of responses that came into the group chat, with the first being from some... Chloe person texting in an extremely energetic way. The tall boy couldn't help but narrow his eyes and frown deeply as a part of him had a feeling about who this 'Chloe.' And, well, that feeling was confirmed... after Yuu nearly spat out his drink when seeing what Remi just sent. "Really Remi? You two haven't even left Byjerlfal," as Yuu exclaimed this, he couldn't help but give Remi the stink eye before facepalming and uttering a whatever. Once he finished reading the texts he began punching in something himself. = Still in the city, willing to help. = Ninja girl with Aster, change of plans. Meet Jojo, Vivi, and I at the Stellar Toy Factory. Will be there ASAP. Yuu "Well, guess that's one bed made and laid for all of us," Yuu proclaimed as he swiped over to another application and went about scanning the slumbering Slakoth and Remi's partner, Cottonee. "I'm sure the factory is enroute to the city exit leading to Route 25; care for one last walk before we go our separate ways?"
