The sun was rising slowly giving off a gentle but warm glow the wind was blowing softly like it was the begging of a beautiful journey a perfect day...This is the Port city of Amona in the Amona region it is a very beautiful city filled with many pokemon and many trainers preparing to go on a journey with their pokemon not knowing what to really expect. Though the city was rather busy at the docking port as several boats were entering the city carrying fresh new faces to the Amona region. They will be arriving in only a short twenty minutes I wonder what those heading to the region are planning or what they expect to see at the region? Who really knows all that is known is they will have a journey filled with happy moments and sad moments but they will also gain alot of personal growth and better understand themselves and the pokemon around them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Isacc was having a pleasant sleep dreaming of how his adventures in this region would go he's finally done in the trainers school finally a trainer registered in the Amona league and even registered for contests in the region he was bound to have an amazing journey ahead of him. Though his dreams were short lived as soon his alarm went off waking both him and his eevee Xeno.... "Oh it's already morning I should probably get ready and head off to the trainers school so I can finally head out on my journey...C'mon Xeno let's do this!" With that Isacc got ready for they day he dressed packed what he'd need into his trusty bag dressed,combed Xeno and then the two of them ate and immediately ran off to the trainer's school to start off there day. (OOC: first posts are you guys on the boats getting ready my next post the boats will reach the docks ok have fun everyone)

"Awake?" Breloom cooed as he poked Agatha with his tail. It was early yet, but he knew that today was the big day and he didn't want her to miss it because she overslept. He knew she'd be upset to the point of tears if she did and he couldn't bare to think about it. It hurt just to consider the possibility. Agatha awake to Breloom's gentle prodding. A warm breeze flowed through her open window. She turned to face the Pokemon. "Good morning, Breloom. Yes. I'm awake." Breloom bounced a little. "Ship?" He sounded excited. It took her a moment to remember what he meant. Then it hit her. She wasn't in her bed at home. She was on a ship to the Amona region! How exciting! She couldn't wait to get there and start trainer's school!

It wasn't a long voyage. Twenty minutes, give or take, before they made landfall at the port. It would've been simple enough to walk around the deck, and watch the water and sky for pokemon. He wasn't sure if he'd be able to catch anything, but it would be nice to see what was around if he ever came back this way again on his own. It was just he was too tired for anything more than sleep, and didn't want to do it on a bench, again. He settled on the sleeping cabins, and found the third one he tried unlocked. "Shhh." He whispered to the large Kangaskahn behind him. "Come on." They crept in and he closed the locked the door behind them. "Okay just ten minutes." He quickly got undressed and set the alarm next to the bed. He all but jumped in the bed, closed his eyes, and drifted off into a heavy slumber. Fifteen minutes later, he was still asleep. The boat would be arriving soon, said the digital clock on the side of the young man's bed, but he paid it no mind. Sleep hadn't come easy that night thanks to all the excitement. So he lay in his bed, snoring softly, dreaming of battles, badges, fame, and victories. A smile appeared on his face. Mama was up well before Jynmi, aware of the time, and when the boat was set to arrive, but she didn't make any effort to wake up him. Instead, she busied herself watching her child move around on shaky legs, exploring the small room, sniffing things here and there. The little Joey, as Jynmi had come to call him, didn't find himself with very many chances to wonder around on his own so he made the most of it by seeing to it that every edge, corner, and surface of the room was touched, sniffed, tasted, and touched again. Little Joey was in the process of once again investigating the part of Jynmi's blanket which hung off the bed, sniffing it and then giving it a light tug. The sheet slid off, and caused the young man's eyes to open. He blinked blearily and looked around. The scene looked familiar enough. Mama at a corner, watching Joey, his bag on the opposite end of the room. Joey looking up at him, blanket in hand. The clock reading thirty minutes after the time it was supposed to go off at. "I'm late again, aren't I Mama?" He mumbled, The Kangaskhan nodded, and stepped across the room to pick up the Joey, who went willingly, with a frown, into her sack. "Oh God I'm late!" Jynmi jumped out of bed, put on his clothes, grabbed his pack, and hurried out his room, hoping against hope he hadn't missed breakfast. Mama followed without a word, half smiling because she still found the whole song and dance amusing.

Milo woke up in his room, Pooch his Mightyenna still asleep next to him on his bed. "Hey big man, you ready to walk around a bit? Can't be long before we get to shore." Pooch instantly kicked up, already moving to the door. "Alright brohan, guess you do want the fresh air," Milo said a light laughter in his voice. They explored the deck for a while watching the many a pokemon that lived in the ocean and in the sky. After their pokemon watching, Milo looked at a clock time for breakfast. "Hey Pooch, looks like we can go eat now." "Might, Mighty, Might, Mightyenna" "Look man, food is food, just enjoy it while we got it. We gotta get back to making our own here pretty soon." "Mighty" "Adda boy" So off they went to breakfast, just as Milo and Pooch settled in, in came another kid. This one though seemed a lot more... how do you say it, intent on getting food. "How you doing, buddy?" Milo asked the kid as he came in, since he was close to the door

(double post me and Akuma made it together on a Google doc) NPC/World Events ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The last of the boats were now arriving and with a loud whistle they made port and the remaining people prepared to get off hmmm where any late though? Maybe sleeping where they shouldn’t be? but with that the Pokemon Trainers school quickly opened 7am sharp waiting for the new trainers to enter and do their tests to prove they're strong enough to travel the Amona region safely these tests wouldn’t be too hard and you only need to pass 3 of the 4 tests but only the highest ranked of the trainers would receive a Pokenav + V2.0 the ultimate source of navigation now with a radio and video calls as well as email built in the average trainers simply get a pokegear and the low ranking trainers a town map with having to do a special fifth test to make sure they will be alright. The proctors were prepared for any trainers with their teams selected from and trained by the regional professors. Though on this nice an momentous day not everyone was upto good there was a somewhat sinister aura around but what could cause this? None other than Team Zodiac a rather mysterious group working on many experiments on both Pokemon and Humans...learning off other organizations actions in the past such as team rockets technology forcing pokemon to evolve and go berserk along with the added power of Ciphers shadow pokemon technology and sang machines and with the use of team Galactics red chains they could easily control these powerful pokemon with ease unlike those before them they even used team Plasma’s airship technology to easily strike around the region and be nearly impossible to track. You could say they are some of the most dangerous people around though little is known about them who is their leader does everyone have the same plans? all that is known is they have 12 leaders each following under one of the 12 chinese Zodiac.... ???:”hmhmhm...all these new trainers so many chance to plant some shadow pokemon...” Grunt:”sir all the shadow pokemon were successfully swapped with the normal pokemon what would you like us to do with the ones we stole?” ???:”Send to them to HQ if any have the potential to be strong shadow pokemon tell them to do it the others make disappear....” Grunt: “Sir yes sir!” Grunt 2: “Sir you got a call to return to base what would you like the rest of us to do?” ???:”Have a little fun...” Isacc and Q ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q laid back waiting for his chance to be allowed to move on and battle all to his hearts content but unfortunately it would still be quite sometime before the trainers just arriving off the boats would arrive at the trainer school and he would be able to take the rest of the tests. Until then he would rest up for the battles. Isacc was now in front of the trainers school when he noticed someone laying against the wall beside the front door’s he had an aura of professionalism about him but at the same time seemed very laid back. Isacc soon remembered him from the practice test held the day before...hmmm he seemed to have the highest score by the end...Xeno soon walked upto the man and made a small but cute cry meaning hello. Isacc quickly noticed and decided he may as well say hello as well... “Hello there you were there during the practice test yesterday right? Getting ready for the real tests today?” Q looked up when he heard the trainer speak to him. “Ya just waiting for the rest to arrive what are you doing here from what I saw yesterday I thought you were already a registered trainer since you were helping out and all.” Isacc laughed a little and in a cheerful voice told the trainer he hadn’t been able to receive his Pokenav + v2.0 until today and he was the new trainers partner in the double battle test partner. he then noticed the doors were open then began to walk inside but stopped and then asked the other trainer if he’d like to come inside while they waited for everyone to arrive. Q was surprised by the trainers generosity in Orre he had only been treated nicely on few occasions due to the areas where he normally battled. “sure why not there might be a better place for me to rest in there”

Agatha eagerly waited, hanging onto the rail of the boat, watching as the waves brushed up against the side. She was so ready to get started. She could see land coming up on the horizon and her heart did a few flips. This was it! Her moment to shine. Breloom sat with his feet and head hanging over the side of the boat. His face was an unusual shade of green. He hated water. Being tossed around on its surface in a boat was not his idea of a great time, but he did it for Agatha. He looked up at her, happy to see her smiling so big. Then he quickly turned forward as another pulse of vomit forced its way out of his mouth.
