Barnabas pepped up at the sight of two to-be trainers entering the laboratory. He was glad to see that the others wouldn't take too long to arrive. He really didn't want to be left alone with Professor Snowbell for too long. If the two newcomers had been here earlier, it would be likely that Barnabas wouldn't even have bothered greeting the Professor. Amelia definitely seemed a bit more timid. But that was natural. It was rare for someone as young-looking as her to be starting their journey so early. Barnabas gave a pleasant grin, lacing his fingers together as he peered over at Sigurd and Amelia. This time, the smile reached his eyes, which crinkled up in amusement.

"Nice to meet you." Barnabas stated cheerfully. Roxy peered down at the Litwick and Scraggy, greeting the two with a small snort. 

"Yes, yes, I am Professor Snowbell." The professor greeted, pausing afterwards as though awaiting for impressed applause. "You'll be getting... starter pokemon and pokedexes which were just shipped in today by the lazy bastards in charge of it. That's what this little... [i]one[/i] is  here for." The Professor complained slightly to the kids, before he swiped a huge brown bag off of a nearby bookshelf. He spilled the contents, which were seventeen different pokeballs, each holding a different starter.
