The Viore Region

An astounding region full of legends and mysteries, Viore has experienced peace for centuries. Although much of their history has been lost through the ages, some legends live on through child's stories and ancient ruins throughout the region.

This being a Pokemon World, however, there are of course Pokemon Trainers! They work side by side with Pokemon everyday to become stronger and closer. However, every trainer had to start somewhere, and in Viore, that place is the Maple Pokemon Lab in New Amber Town. Here is where every New Trainer and Trainer visiting the Region had to acquire a regional Pokedex.

This is where our story begins, with several new trainers, and also veteran ones, who are drawn by the adventures that await them to become trainers! Let's get started!



Lily

Soaring through the skies, a jetliner is making its way from Goldenrod City in the Johto Region, to a small region known as Viore. On board is a very excited girl, Lily Meadows, who is moving to the region with her parents. Her mother had recently taken up a role as Gym Leader in one of the towns, and had called her family over to live somewhat nearby. Their new home would be in New Amber Town, which is also where Lily's Pokemon Journey would begin.

"Remember, when we land, you head straight to Professor... Maple, that's it, head straight to Professor Maple's lab. It should be on the far north side of town If I remember correctly." This was Lily's dad, Mitchell. He and Lily were heading to New Amber Town without Lily's mother, as she was already there and hard at work as a Gym Leader. "I know dad, you don't have to worry about me after today, I'll be a full fledged Pokemon Trainer!" That would be Lily. She's a bit headstrong, but she's got a good heart.

Soon the PA boomed over the cabin from the Pilot. "Passengers we are about to make our descent into Viore International Airport, please make sure your seatbelts are fastened and do not leave until we are fully docked." Everyone started clicking their seatbelts into place, as the plane made it's final descent onto the main runway of Viore International Airport. It slowly rolled into position as a the docking tunnel was brought up to the door.




Brent

"Well, it was a long trip, but we finally made it." This is Brent, he's come all the way to New Amber Town with his father, an archaeologist who works with Professor Maple on excavations of ruins and such. With Brent is his partner, a Cyndaquil he received from his older brother, a Breeder traveling through Johto. "I'm going to head to my hotel for now, you go on ahead and see if Edward is home today." That is Brent's dad, Leon. And the man he referred to was Professor Maple, who tended to be absent from his lab from time to time.

"Alright then, see ya later dad!" Brent waved goodbye to his father and started his way across town. As he made his way along the edge of town he saw one of the many planes landing at the airport. "This place has just about everything, doesn't it Cyndaquil?" He asked his small fire type companion, who responded with a few short quips. "Yeah, I agree with you on that one, definitely a lot quieter than Voltic."

Realizing that he hadn't had anything to eat since breakfast (and it was now about 2:00 in the afternoon), he decided to stop at a local Cafe for some lunch. Besides, if the Professor wasn't there yet, he might be by the time he got done.

Pent

A Lucario looked out a small aircraft window, his eyes tracing over the landmass below. He let out a soft grunt. Sitting to his right was a thin man with kind, brown eyes. A warm smile crossed the man's visage as he looked over his partner. "Ah, Shinon... Are we close?"

Shinon nodded, his gaze still fixed upon a distant location. The Lucario's Aura resonated within his Trainer. It should not be much longer now. Closing his eyes, the man—Pent—let out a relieved sigh. "Thank you... that's good to know. I'm quite exhausted from this flight, but..." Pulling a blue device from his pocket, he looked it over for a few moments with a small frown creasing his brow. "...Ah, it's only 2:00... in the afternoon. Well, I suppose the long repose I crave will have to wait. How about you, would you like to rest?"

Thinking over the man's words for a moment, Shinon then shook his head. I should be fine, for now. Besides... Turning to look over at his Trainer, a wide grin crossed his maw. Without me, you will be lost as soon as we arrive.

Pent's face turned beat red as he tore his eyes from his Pokémon. Retreating to his thoughts, his gaze shifted to the ground. H-He's right...

As if perfectly timed, the awkward moment was interrupted by the loud boom of the PA. "Ladies and gentlemen, as we start our descent, please make sure your seat backs and tray tables are in their full upright position. Make sure your seat belt is securely fastened and all carry-on luggage is stowed underneath the seat in front of you or in the overhead bins. Thank you." Above him, both Pent and Shinon could see the No Smoking Sign blink. Another announcement boomed, this time a feminine voice could be heard, "Ladies and gentlemen, we have just been cleared to land at Viore International Airport. Please make sure one last time your seat belt is securely fastened. The flight attendants are currently passing around the cabin to make a final compliance check and pick up any remaining cups and glasses. Thank you."

A smile crossed Pent's features. "It seems you were correct my friend. It should not be much longer indeed. Ah! Would you mind if I leaned over to look out with you?"

Shinon shook his head, letting out a soft snort. Of course I do not mind. Come, have a look.

Leaning over Shinon's shoulder, Pent looked to the small window, his eyes tracing over the new land, a large smile overtaking his features. "Incredible... this is Viore... Already I can tell it will be much different than Kalos. I do hope we can adjust." Smiling, Shinon replied, I have no doubts.

Once again, a woman's voice could be heard across the loud speakers. "Ladies and gentlemen, we have just been cleared to land at Viore International Airport. Please make sure one last time your seat belt is securely fastened. The flight attendants are currently passing around the cabin to make a final compliance check and pick up any remaining cups and glasses. Thank you."

Leaning back into his seat, Pent's gaze wandered over to the No Smoking Signal. "I'm... nervous."

Wide-eyed, Shinon looked over to his Trainer who was already turning more pale than usual. The Lucario could feel Pent's change in Aura, and let out a soft sigh. You're afraid of landing...? Shinon's red eyes searched over his Trainer for a moment before putting his paw upon Pent's hand. With his gaze forcefully locked to Pent's his warm aura permeated through him. If anything happens.. I will protect you. Do you understand?

Weakly, the pallid man shook his head. A minute or so later, Pent felt a jolt as the plane landed roughly on the runway. He let out a surprise shriek which was quickly muffled by his sheer terror. Shinon rubbed the terrified man's back, worry furrowing the Pokémon's brows.

The booming voice of one of the Flight Attendants could be heard throughout the cabin. "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Viore International Airport. Local time is 2:18PM. For your safety and comfort, please remain seated with your seat belt fastened until the Captain turns off the Fasten Seat Belt sign. This will indicate that we have parked at the gate and that it is safe for you to move about. Please check around your seat for any personal belongings you may have brought on board with you and please use caution when opening the overhead bins, as heavy articles may have shifted around during the flight."

Slipping down in his chair, Pent could feel his stomach twisting in anguish. Shinon shook his head, frowning down at his Trainer. Pent...

Waving off his Pokémon he let out a groan. "I-I'll... be fine... in a minute."

Once the aircraft pulled into the gate, the final message was broadcast over the PA, "On behalf of Kalos Airlines and the entire crew, I’d like to thank you for joining us on this trip and we are looking forward to seeing you on board again in the near future. Have a nice day!"

Bolting up in his seat, Pent lurched forward, pawing around for an emesis bag. Worry overtaking his expression, Shinon cocked his head at his frantic Trainer. We're not moving anymore... Take a deep breath, everything is going to be all right.

Covering his mouth, as he was unable to find a bag, Pent attempted to speak, "U-Urk..."

Those on the aircraft were now allowed to disembark. A few passengers trickled down the rows, alerting the other less attentive passengers that they could now leave as well. Pent and Shinon, however, choose to wait for the crowds to pass. Mostly—if not entirely—because they were both fairly certain Pent would vomit as soon as he moved.

Liza



Thump.

With a startle, Liza snapped awake as the plane skidded against the asphalt. In a great fumbling of her stiffened legs and fingers, the redhead managed to snap on her seatbelt before the entire cabin shook with a waking rumble. As she did many times before, Liza pinched her button-nose and blew through her nostrils so as to re-pressurize her eardrum. In due time, what was once muffled reached back to clarity as the back of her knuckles wiped off the veil of lethargy. Dried rheum and tears included. The plane slowed, and with the deceleration came the absence of pressure. Her head wasn't forced as hard into the seats, and occasional jerks made her consciousness clear. The chatter of all other passengers intensified as the bell chimed, and everyone stood with great prospects, great hopes for their futures.
You'd be wrong to assume it'd be opposite for Liza. She too looked forward to the same opportunities, the same chances for great opportunities. And like all others, she filed into the line of so many other trainers, miners, doctors, professors, entrepreneurs, ranchers, breeders...
And a certain man who couldn't handle the motion so well. Liza, upon seeing this, scooted aside to let the rest of the line flow by as she dipped her hand into a seat pocket. From it, she fished out a plastic bag filled with newspapers and pamphlets. Those were dumped. As for the paper bag...not an emesis bag, but it would have to do.
That was opened right on up so the emptied plastic bag could sit in it. No leaks, and a sealed up mess by the end of it all.

@Ninian

"Here...a bag, right?"
Pent could see a bag, actually two, offered up for him to use.
"Don't forget to seal it up when you're done."

Pent

@BytheSpleen

Pent was in his own world as he did everything in his power to will the stomach acid down his windpipe and back into his stomach where it belonged. Something caught his attention, however. Weakly turning to his right, he looked over at the young girl standing before his row's empty seat. His eyes widened behind his glasses as he noticed the bags, his hand slowly drawing away from his lips. "F-For m—"

Just as he was about to finish his sentence, he felt something horrible welling up inside of him. Hastily, he snatched the stacked bags from the kind girl, and proceeded to retch inside of them.

Pressing a paw to his forehead, Shinon thought to himself. Oh no...

With another heave, and at last a dry-heave, Pent was finished. Carefully, he rolled up the paper bag, and sealed it within the plastic one before setting it down. Leaning back into his seat, he let out a relieved sigh before finally turning his sights upon his savior. "T-Thank you... That was... nice, of you." Closing his eyes, he took a few shallow breaths as he attempted to calm his nerves.

The aisle beside them was still surprisingly crowded with passengers. Many were having difficulties retrieving their luggage, causing a stoppage.

After a few moments, Pent opened his eyes with a slight smile crossing his pale visage. "Thank you. Thank you very much, I am in your debt. I'm Pent, by the way, and it's been a pleasure."

Alfred Nora


There was a light breeze drifting gentle through a open window of a first floor bedroom, A Kid laid on his own bed shivering slightly in the heat. He had grown used to the cold though as the origin of it lay sleeping at the foot of his bed. On a bean bag slightly covered in frost laid a Amaura, Carolina was intent with her sleep as she wanted as much as possible before they set out today on their much awaited trip of the region if not the entire world her trainer had promised as soon as possible. Still Carolina slowly drifted into a lighter sleep as the beams of light drifted through the room Illuminating everything and everyone inside in a golden shimmery glow.

A Klefki named Lock laid on a pile of clothes also content in its sleep, it had a single key around its arms that it guarded with its life, did it open anything? not really but it was a gift from his trainer and that was enough for the Klefki to cherish it. Besides today was the day they went on the adventure everyone will finally see the true power of this Klefki, nobody would make fun of them when he would stroll in, he would be the ultimate dragon slayer. Lock smiled as he slept in his self imposed fantasy world, it seem like today was going to be a very good day. Today was going to be His day.

Alfred woke up feeling slightly drowsy, today was that day. He smiled as he wiped away the sleep dust from the corner of his eyes looking around to see if his team was all present. Lock the vanguard of the team was sleeping on the clothes he had laid out for the day, well of course he was he was always on the softest unoccupied object when he was looking for a place to sleep. And of course the Klefki found that object to be Alfred's clothes. Alfred stretched as moved off to the side of the bed sitting on the mattress. Carolina was beginning to awaken with the sudden movement shifting to and fro on her frosted bean bag making the floor slightly wet. She let out a yawn as she looked up at Alfred. Who was busy wondering where his last team member was, Sapphire was nowhere to be found in the room which caused Alfred to start to worry where was his Kirlia. She had been targeted by thugs in the past because of her traits making her a exceptionally rare breed of Kirlia.

Sapphire walked into the room noticing her trainer was in a slight state, she was holding a tray of slightly burned toast she had made for everyone. Of course it had been difficult to reach the cupboards, but Alfred's mother's Mienshao had lent a helping hand to help gather everything together. Toast was one of the few things she could make due to its simplicity, after all she only really knew basic maths so she couldn't measure out the ingredients for the more complex things. Either way the Kirlia was trying to be as helpful as possible to everyone else in the team. Hence why she was trying to study things that her trainer had studied or was studying. She didn't really need to talk like a human though. She was training her own natural gift to be able to do that. Though so far she could only project single words which was a step up from just being able to project her emotion when she was a young Ralts. Her ability was of course Telepathy and it really did come in handy in double battles.

"hey" a feminine voice said inside Alfreds head that sounded like a young girl, Their was a moderate delay before the next word. "Toast" Alfred pulled his head out from his hands as he saw Sapphire placing the toast down on the floor in front of him. Like a spark Lock jumped down to have a look at the food on offer, almost as if he was waiting for it. Carolina also came over to get a bite to eat. As such everyone dug into the breakfast of toast and butter. about 10 minutes later after the rest of the team had finished eating and gone downstairs. Alfred got dressed in and followed suit 5 minutes after that. So there he was in his full getup his bag mostly packed. the pokeballs for his 3 pokemon that he would NEVER use unless he absolutely had to due to size constraints or another reason were attached to his belt.

Either way everyone was ready. "Alright guys today is the fated day I promised my mothers out but I already got her permission to go so what are we waiting for, Lets go out there and prove to the world that we will be legends in our own right!" Alfred said with a wide grin as he pushed up his glasses before walking out of his House his Pokemon following suit.

They started walking towards the Lab Alfred in front with Lock hovering above his head, Kirlia beside him as if she was both scared and excited for what was to come, and Carolina was further back stopping to look at everything to see if it had changed from the last time she had looked at it. This adventure was starting to look like a ton of fun.

Lily


After such a long flight, Lily stood up once the all clear was given and stretched her tired muscles. After this, she grabbed her bright yellow travel pack from the overhead luggage compartment, and slung it on her back. Her dad would take care of all their other things, she had her own objective. She had been uprooted from Johto before she could begin here Pokemon Journey, and although she had a starter Pokemon, she never had the chance to get a Pokedex.

She was now moving at a moderately fast pace through the main airport, past the luggage claim and towards the exit. "Alright, remember, Professor Maple's lab on the north side of town." She stopped for a second, a thought coming to mind. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot!" She pulls out a Pokeball from the backpack, holding out in front of her. "Chikorita, come on out!" The capsule opened, revealing the small grass type Pokemon Chikorita. It looked around for a moment, then stretched out itself.

"I know, it was a long flight. But we're here now, this is Viore!" She started out the door with Chikorita on her heels, and as soon as she got outside all her thoughts were blurs. The place was beautiful, just perfectly blended with nature. She started strolling down the street, admiring all the buildings. It was an amazing contrast, the natural feel of this place compared to the hustle and bustle of Goldenrod.

She was so taken into the surroundings, however, she didn't notice where she was walking herself. This resulted how one would assume, she bumped into someone and fell to the ground. "Ow... oh man, I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going..." She looked up to see who she had bumped into, with Chikorita standing next to her.




Brent


After that short stay and bite to eat, Brent and Cyndaquil were headed once more towards Professor Maple's lab. After crossing the street over to the far side next to the airport, he stopped for a moment to check something on his new Pokegear. That's when he felt something bump into him, followed by a soft thud behind him. He turned to find a girl about his age on the ground, wearing a green tanktop and pink miniskirt.

"Hey, you okay?" asked Brent, lending a hand to help her up. She took it, and when she stood up he found they were about the same height as well. "Yeah, I'm okay. I'm still so sorry for bumping into you." She looked over him herself, judging him the same. Brent's Cyndaquil popped its head up over his shoulder, looking at the girls Chikorita. "It's all good, my name's Brent, and this is my partner, Cyndaquil." He held out his hand again, this time in a handshake. Lily nervously held hers out the same. "Mines... Lily, and this is Chikorita. Nice to meet you."

So her name was Lily, she seemed like a nice girl, even if she was a little nervous from her voice. "Same here, I take it you're not from around here." Lily nodded, suddenly remembering what she was supposed to have been doing. "Oh yeah! I'm heading to the Maple Pokemon Lab, but I got a little distracted." Brent actually lit up a bit after hearing this. "Well, what do you know, I'm heading that way myself. If you want I can show you the quickest way there." Lily beamed, happy that it she seemed to already have made a friend in this new Region. "Really? That would be great!" Brent turned and waved in his direction. "Alright then, follow me." The duo and their Pokemon started their way across town once again.




Unknown


"Where'd that stupid thing go?" Two people are in a nearby forest, clearly not happy about something, or someone. "That thing has been messing with our mission for weeks, I'm glad we've finally got the go ahead to take it down." There is a rustling in the bushes, causing both these people to jump. "Was that it? Let's check and see!" The duo take off further into the forest, not noticing that they themselves are being watched. A figure in the shadows of a tree peaks out from behind it, and slowly moves up after them, not letting them out of its sight.

Sonya Khalturin


It was captivating, just like a whirlpool spinning round and round. Endlessly circling itself causing beautiful spirals. However it wasn't water that formed this whirlpool, no. In this case it was hot chocolate with peppermint inside not a lake, but a little coffee cup. How was this whirlpool being created though? Simple, a young girl named Sonya was stirring it with a simple mixing straw. Currently the sixteen year old was debating on what to do next. She'd gotten her pokedex the day before when she got into town, but she had forgotten to ask about where she needed to go to get her first ribbon for this region.

This girl had been sitting there in the shop wearing her black tank top, dark blue jeans, and her orange-red hair tied in a ponytail for about ten minutes now. She had arrived in New Amber Town yesterday morning and had spent the day relaxing to get settled in. Normally she would have jumped right into things, but she had wanted to take things more calmly this time around. After several years of being a trainer she had finally learned that patience was a great virtue, especially when she became a coordinator and she had to practice a lot with her pokemon day and night just to get everything right for upcoming contests.

It had been awhile since she had last competed in a contest and after her last year in the Hoenn region she had gone home to her family and visited them for a little over a month before coming to the Viore region. She wanted to see her twin sisters one last time before they headed off for their own pokemon adventure together. When they did leave three days ago she had given each of them one of her own pokemon. Her Absol for Tatiana, and Milotic which she had given to Katia. Her sister had promised her that they would return them one day after they had their own trained pokemon. Of course most people would start out with a regional starter, but her sisters had really taken a liking to the two pokemon and promised they wouldn't use them for contests until they each had won a contest with their own pokemon.

As the girl finally stopped stirring her drink and took a sip she looked out the window. So far the Viore region was pretty nice. The sites here in New Amber Town were pretty neat, and from what the girl could tell the hot chocolate was good too. It was official, so far she like it here. Sadly she would have to depart this little shop though. So the girl stood up and walked out the door and began heading back to the lab. She needed to find out where to head so she could enter in a contest again. Ever since she lost at the grand festival in the Hoenn region she had been determined to succeed this year.

Along her way to the lab she spotted a man with a couple of pokemon following him. It was one thing to have one pokemon that wasn't in a pokeball, but to have two? No, three! Their was a third one checking things out behind him. The idea behind letting them out all the time was nice, but when you had too many out it was just irresponsible and careless. Worst of all was that one was a Klefki. From what she had read Klefki weren't all that impressive, and possibly could be considered one of the worst pokemon for its home region. It was hard to judge just from the studies the girl had done though. She had only been to the Sinnoh region, the Hoenn region, and of course the Johto region where she was born. So anything outside of those regions she'd done research on so she would eb prepared for this new region.

Well there could be worse though, Magikarp for example. In any event the girl decided to make her first interaction and also her first introduction within Viore. Quickly walking over to the man and stopping in front of him she smiled kindly as her hair blew around a bit in the breeze. "Well hello there! I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess you're a pokemon trainer? My name is Sonya Khalturim, it's a pleasure to meet you." Sonya then bowed forward slightly in greetings and noticed that the small pokemon following a ways behind might just redeem the guy. It was another pokemon she'd only read about but it was definitely cuter in person.

Liza



"Liza, and don't sweat it. Just...get yourself cleaned up, okay? You don't have any reason to pay me back for something that's supposed to be expected of people."

And just like that, Liza was gone. The clog was caused by a rather burly man in a struggle with a rather burly suitcase, which Liza helped out with with a sharp tug. Given, she had probably broke a zipper in the process, but the cheers in the back of the plane had well out-voiced the impediment's laments.
With the use of her slim figure, Liza slipped around the burly man, kamong plenty of other struggling passengers, and went on ahead to the terminal. Fresh air, strongly scented of honey, swept through the lobbies' open doors as the planes unloaded the passengers from all over. Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova...the list went on and on, and even farther as tourists and business workers alike regrouped in a clamor.

Liza was not compelled to be waiting around; she already had a hotel reservation in New Amber with further contact details hidden in the safe, so she had made it her business to take a step into the terminal and collect her belongings as quickly as possible. It didn't take very long, considering they were all carry-on.
Within half an hour, she was one of dozens waiting for an available taxi, and so kept her eyes on all the people throughout the airport, namely other trainers that seemed to be far more experienced than she in the business. What, a set of 4 pokéballs already in their person, just past customs? She had half a mind to call them out for cheating, but there weren't any rules stated against such things.
How the heck would she even get past the first gym, at this rate? Cocky brats were probably dying in anticipation to get a quick and easy win from a fresh newbie if they ever so much made eye contact. That, among many other reasons was why Liza kept her Treecko in a Pokeball. If she had the advantage to at least pick and choose her fights...well, all she had to do would be to watch others lose and develop a technique here and there.

Pent

As Liza vanished, a rather confused expression washed over Pent's features. "W-Well she left in a hurry."

Crossing his arms, Shinon replied, Given how quickly she left, and the fact that she helped the one responsible for the backup rather swiftly, it's quite apparent there's something she's anxious to do.

Hanging his head, a soft sigh escaped Pent's lips. "I... understand that she believes that helping others should be a given, but... it was really fortunate that she noticed me. I would have at least liked to have bought her a lemonade for her troubles..."

Perhaps if you see her again. I can keep watch for her Aura, if you desperately wish to repay her. That said... that may be considered stalking.

Poking his two forefingers together, he let out a dejected sigh. "...I hadn't even considered that. You're right." It took a few moments for Pent to fully process what Liza had told him. "A-Ah! She told me to get cleaned up." Shooting up from his seat, he looked around only to realize the nearest bathroom on the plane would be difficult to reach. "Shinon, do I—"

The Lucario shook his head, tactfully interrupting his Trainer. I do not see any vomit. You should still clean up, regardless.

Nodding, Pent made his way to the end of the aisle, and Shinon stood up to follow. "I suppose we should head off, then." Picking up the bag of vomit, Pent and Shinon proceeded to disembark. In the back of his mind, Pent was relieved he did not have any carry on luggage, as he was fairly certain the motion of removing it from the overhead compartment would have caused him to hurl further.

Reading his thoughts, Shinon commented, I'm thankful as well.

It didn't take long for the duo to make their way off the plane, and they now found themselves at the gate. Thankfully, he had found a trashcan only a few minutes previously. Looking around, confusion washed over the man's features as he realized he had no idea what to do next. It was then he spotted a sign pointed to baggage pickup, and even more importantly, to the bathroom. Turning to his Pokémon companion, he waved the hand not clutching his staff in an elaborate gesture. "I'll be in the men's room... wait here for me?"

A soft groan escaped the Lucario's maw. Of course.

Rushing into the restroom, Pent immediately headed towards the long row of sinks. Looking himself over in the mirror, he was relieved to only find one dried spec of vomit on the corner of his lips. Leaning over the sink, he began to thoroughly wash his face. Once satisfied, he then began rinsing out his mouth...

((OOC: Just a note, the dialogue surrounded by <> is language spoken by Pokémon. No human can understand the words spoken by Pokémon without some sort of special circumstance. Only Pokémon can understand each other. I simply find it more interesting then the Pokémon saying nothing at all, and much less boring then Pokémon repeating their names. This is the way I haven written Pokémon speech in past RP's and that is what I'm comfertable with, but if it turns out to be an issue I can remove it.))

Devon


A teen boy sat in the farthest seat on the right of a large airliner, staring out the window at the world below him. The thoughts of what awaited him in this new place raced through his young mind. So that's Viore huh?......There's not snow everywhere so I'm already liking it better than Sinnoh during this time of year. I wonder what kind of Pokémon live here? What are the towns like? What starting Pokémon does Professor Maple give out, if he does at all? Is there a League and Gyms here too? The teen, Devon Lyton, was brought out of his thoughts once the small blue mouse-like creature in his lap began to fidget around. Looking down Devon smiled at the Marill, that seemed to have just woken up from a nap. "Hey Cyan. Wanna see out the window too?" Stretching out her tiny arms and flexing her tail, Cyan turned to look up at her Trainer, and nodded. <Sure! I wanna see how close we are!> Grabbing the small Pokémon's sides, Devon lifted up his friend, and put her up at the windows height. The Aqua Mouse's face lit up with excitement, and she stared in awe at the foreign new land. <Wow! It's so pretty! Look at all the mountains, and that big lake! How much longer is it gonna be!?> As if on cue, the voice of the flight attendant over the PM spoke up to answer the Pokémon's question. "Ladies and gentlemen, as we start our descent into Viore International Airport, please make sure your seat backs and tray tables are in their full upright position. Make sure your seat belt is securely fastened and all carry-on luggage is stowed underneath the seat in front of you or in the overhead bins. Thank you." In a flash, a brown fluffy assailant jumped onto Devon's lap, causing the boy to cry out. A rather over excited Eevee sporting an Everstone necklace repeatedly hopped on his knees. <I wanna see! I wanna see! Can I see too Devon!?> Setting Cyan down on the opposite knee, the teen gave the small fuzzy cat dog a confused stare. "What do want Biscuit? Why are you trying to bust my knees open? Dad, what are you feeding her to make her so hyper?" A rather burly man sat in the seat on Devon's left, sporting dark brown short hair, a thick mustache, and rough hands evident of tough work turned to look at the annoyed teen, and shook his head. His face a mix of confusion, and sleepiness from the long flight. "Nothing out of the ordinary Devon. She's just excited for the trip. I assume she wants to look out your window." Devon sighed and took the small Eevee in his hands, smiling as he faced her to the window. "Alright Biscuit. There ya go. Isn't it cool?" Biscuit didn't reply, instead she kept her distant stare on the region of Viore, curious of all that it has to offer. "Well, she's totally out of it again. Good thing we're landing soon. I wanna stretch out and start looking for this Professor Maple ASAP, so me and Shock can finally see what these fancy rocks do!" Devon grinned as he stared at his left arm, a small white bracelet adored with a multi-colored stone shone in the afternoon sunlight leaking in from the plane's window.

After another boring trip through customs that Devon and his Father were used to at this point, the pair and their Pokémon ended up in Viore's most dazzling location, the Viore International Airports bathroom. Devon waited outside of the door to the men's room, tapping his feet impatiently while waiting for his father to come out so they could get a move on. Cyan and Biscuit stood near Devon's feet, talking to each other in their odd gibberish. Come on Dad, seriously? How long does it take to take a piss at age forty three? It can't be THAT hard..... Sighing, the teen turned his attention to his small flip phone, his blue Pokégear, and began to study Viores map for possible places of interest.

Pent


Outside of the men's bathroom, a Lucario leaned against against the stone wall, staring at the ceiling until a teenager with two Pokémon waited beside him. Shinon's gaze fell to the white bracelet upon the Trainer's arm for a few moments before looking down at his own crimson bracer. Quietly he thought to himself, staring at the boy. That's a Key Stone, if I'm not mistaken...

Finally, after what seemed like forever to both parties, Pent emerged from the bathroom victorious. His breath now did not smell of vomit, and he was cleansed from any vile residue. Flashing a friendly smile to the two Pokémon at the feet of a Trainer (while also subconsciously glancing at his Pokégear), he then made his way over towards his Lucario, Shinon. Giving a soft grunt, Shinon's gaze fell to the teen's Mega Bracelet. That Trainer has a Key Stone.

Raising a brow, Pent then used his staff to turn on his heel to look in the opposite direction. "Hmmm—oh! Oh my, you're right he does." His pale features suddenly flushed a light pink as he realized that the boy next to him probably noticed he was talking about him, despite him being absorbed with his Pokégear. Eyes widened as he realized something important that he had seen whilst making his way over towards Shinon. Pushing off his staff, he fully turned to face the boy, his mind running a mile a minute. W-Wait, is that... a map of Viore!? Finally he awkwardly vocalized his inner monologue. "Erm, excuse me... Is that a map of Viore you're looking at?"

Letting out a soft grunt, Shinon looked over the two Pokémon at the teen's feet. He then spoke to both of them. <Please excuse my Trainer... He's had quite the trying afternoon.>

Liza



Vroom...

Liza had, over much clamor, claimed for herself a seat in a taxi service by moped. Awkward as it sounded, the ride was considerably smoother than anticiapated, and the time it took to effortlessly weave through the cars and lanes had brought her that much farther ahead than most others in terms of getting out the airport. New Amber could hardly be considered as a town at this point; the hotel, the House of the Setting Sun, was an impressive 6-story building surrounded by a highly developed suburban sprawl sprouting around the urban center : Pokecenter, Pokelab, airport and all others...
Really, New Amber was a small city in disguise.

The warm, mediterranean air whipped Liza's hair as the moped bumped down the cobbled street, before meeting the more familiar, smoother asphalt. Trees and buildings whipped by in a kaleidscope of greens and greys, flashes and squares and lines of silver, emerald, and brown as flocks of bird-type Pokemon angrily chirped at one another. It was fledgling season, perhaps the most dangerous for flying types with the proliferation of competing predator pokemon over the Bug-types. Liza hadn't bothered to use a Pokedex, but she trusted her memory to sight for long enough in her lifetime that she could recognize a few characteristics her and there : color, size, probable type, maybe exact height and weight.

"Reservation for 1 Westing, female? This is she."

Whatever the case, Liza was able to occupy herself until she found herself ghosting her way towards the lobby desk, and after a minute's ride up the elevator, had already kicked off her shoes in the anticipated march to her door. When she did open the room, honeydew hit her nostrils with much more intensity and sweetness than the honeyed air outside. In a dream-like walk, Liza let herself drift onto the bed as she clicked her pokeball twice.
Pop!!!

And so her Treecko closed the door for her before promptly snuggling with her body. The briefing would come when she had some rest.

Alfred Nora


Alfred had been walking with his pokemon for a short while breathing in as they embraced the outdoor world and the adventure it would offer to both him and his team. Of course there was a few potted plants outside peoples homes which Carolina was checking fervently to see if they had grown even slightly. The young Amaura was enjoying herself and was looking forward to what was going to come and what she was going to see. Her light blue eyes glossing over the scenery. Her excitement was obvious to behold. She was thankful that her trainer didn't put her in a pokeball cause now she can fully experience everything the world had to offer.

Lock was doing what it liked to do and guard both its keys and its team-mates like a sentry, hovering above his trainers head keeping its watchful eye on things if anyone was to attack them, maybe Lock was a little paranoid but even Lock knew it was better for Defense then Offense which was quite depressing really considering how much the Klefki wanted to beat things by itself, however severely crippling things worked too. Either way Lock was continuing what it liked to do.

Alfred and Sapphire were walking together both with a look of both fear and excitement, Though Sapphire was below Alfred's waist in height, Alfred still treated them if they were his equal if not his better. "So you excited Sapphire?" Alfred asked with a grin on his face. The femine voice blinked into his mind in response by the little blue Kirlia telepathy. "Yup." Sapphire responded with a single word. Alfred was about to ask another question when a girl walked in front of him and introduced herself.

The suddenness of the introduction caused Sapphire to retreat behind Alfreds legs and caused Lock to get right up in the girls face and jangle its key. Alfred sighed "Sorry about that, Lock I don't think she is trying to hurt us." Alfred said reassuring his Klefki to stand down which it obliged returning to orbiting his head. Carolina who was still further behind quickly ran over to see what all the commotion was about. Noticing the young woman, Carolina quickly ran over and inspected every square inch of the new girl closely. "Don't mind Carolina, she won't harm you" Alfred said to the girl as the Amaura who was actually taller then her and only just shorter then Alfred continued to inspect her. "But where are my manners, The names Alfred Nora" Alfred said as he pushed his glasses further up his nose as he continued the introduction. "The slightly paranoid Klefki above my head, he's called Lock he triggers easily when with people he doesn't trust so, might want to be careful."

Sapphire continued to tug at the trouser leg of Alfred, She didn't take well to strangers especially if they introduce themselves first. They seemed to invasive, it brought back memories of that fat rich couple who started hugging and squeezing her because they thought she was a cute article or something. Luckily Lock and Alfred was nearby and a thunder wave later and she was free. She looked at the girl opposite with a slight fear present in her eyes.

Alfred noticed that Sapphire was being shy, he turned around and knelt down in a effort to reassure her. "Sapphire, Its all right I'll make sure nothing bad is going to happen to you. So cheer up Sapphire." Alfred finished as the Kirlia looked up at him with wide open eyes before accepting his promise. Sapphires eyes took a more determined look at she walked forward towards the other. "Hi" she said inside the other trainers head. It was a little muffled, she only really had practice Telepathically talking to Alfred and his other pokemon. Alfred stood back up and stood beside Sapphire. "This here is Sapphire, She kinda self appointed herself as the Co leader of the team." Alfred said with a grin as Carolina returned back to his side. "And Yes I am a pokemon trainer, My goal is to beat all the gyms and fulfil the dreams of my Pokemon!" Alfred finished with slight yell grinning from ear to ear as Sapphire and Carolina grinned too, Lock on the otherhand was too busy playing sentry to join in.

Sonya Khalturin


Sonya had to just laugh and scratch the side of her head for a moment after the entire spectacle was over. In less than a minute she had been stared down by a Klefki, apparently named Lock, which just made her want to laugh more because she never though she'd see the day, Heavily examined by an Amaura, named Carolina, who clearly was too curious for her own good, and met a Kirlia, who was actually quite beautiful considering it's color was different, named sapphire, oh and heard a muffled voice in her head! That last part struck her as a bit odd and caused Sonya to look around a moment before finally figuring out, or at least hoping she was right since Kirlia was the one right there which caused her to smile in surprise.

After all the introductions had been completed and she stopped laughing Sonya finally spoke once more. "It's a pleasure to meet you all. You all are an odd bunch huh? Which that reminds me. Why would you let them all out like this? That's overly dangerous, especially for such a beautiful Kirlia. I'm not saying they should never be out, but just having them all walk around with you? It seems a bit...Irresponsible to be honest, plus now your opponents already know what you have." After her tiny rant Sonya laughed a bit more and scratched her head a bit before speaking again. "Sorry, I guess it's not really my place to say anything, but there are some crazy people out there and I'd hate to see a trainer lose their pokemon to them. Anyways!" As she finished that topic and tried to set it aside quickly. "Where ya heading Alfred?" Sonya knew she could be a bit opinionated, and very offensive about it, so when she caught herself doing it she had a bad habbit of trying to brush it off and avoid the topic.

The woman had responded with a laugh and that didn't bode well for the Klefki who was looking at her with bloody murder in his eyes, Honestly people that underestimated him didn't deserve his time. Grunting Lock continued back to floating round Alfred's head and playing sentry, he would thunder wave anyone that compromised his friends positions. Cripple them good he shall. Carolina tilted her head to the side while wondering why the lady in particular was laughing, did she do something wrong? no she had just looked at them. Either way the laughter made the Amaura a little uncomfortable.

Sapphire was along with Alfred listening to the girls response both were nodding their heads with their eyes closed at different periods to each other as they acknowledge the girls words, then Alfred spoke up. "I let them all out because I find it wrong to limit their experience of the outside world, Thats not to say I won't use their pokeballs at all but I'll only use it If theirs a massive size constraint or well they are injured beyond travelling capability. We protect each other enough to not have to worry about thugs cause I doubt Lock would let you run. He is called that for a reason you know." Alfred said pausing to take in a breath "And besides we are a team, we sacrifice an arm and a leg for each other" Alfred said as Sapphire spoke up in both his and the Sonya's heads "Agreed" It was coming in clear in Alfred's mind but it was still going to be muffled in Sonya's due to Sapphires lack of experience in the strangers mind.

"Oh and we are heading to the professors lab, gotta get a pokedex after all, you heading the same way sonya?" Alfred said as he proposed a question. "Or perhaps you walked over because you wanted a battle, I'll take a 1 on 1 battle" Alfred continued Sapphire looking up to him with some sort of admiration present on her face as if to say, I wish I could be like that. "But besides that what is your goal? Mine is to become a legend in my own right, beating all the gyms and becoming the champion if you catch my drift. Though it is also to fulfil each one of my own pokemon dreams, so yea its a pretty big workload." Alfred said as he grinned.

Sonya smiled and looked back up at the Klefki known as Lock. The more proud the little guy acted the more he was growing on Sonya, it was kinda cute how the little guy acted, and maybe she sould give him a little more credit too. In any event it sounded like they were headed the same way that she was so they could spend some more time together which would be fun, but then there was that option to battle Alfred that brought a smirk to her face. Sonya loved battles just as much as contests, so it would be a fun first match in the Viore region, but she wanted to let him finish talking before she answered so she continued to listen until Alfred finished his questions and explanations.

"Well I actually just came over to find a new friend since I just arrived here yesterday, but a battle does sound fun so we should definitely do that, and you're in luck because I'm heading to the lab too, so I guess you're stuck with me for a little bit." Sonya teased a bit and also winked at him jokingly. [color=9850E0] As for my goals...Well that's simple! I want to become a top coordinator, and also become a great pokemon trainer in general. I actually like to persue both contests, and gym battles. I decided why choose one when I can do both and challenge myself further ya know?"

"Since we're headed the same way would you like to battle now or after we get your pokedex?" Sonya offered to let Alfred decide when they battled, after all if he wanted to get his pokedex first it would be wrong of Sonya to stop him for a battle they could easily do after the fact. Besides! So far they were getting along pretty well! This was a good day so far, and hopefully it would continue to be so.

Devon


Devon had been staring at the phone's screen, analyzing the map of Viore using the Pokégear's built-it map app. He was looking into the details of New Amber Town as the awkward man emerged from the bathroom. So we got Maple's Pokémon lab....The airport.....Some cafés, stores.....No Gym? Might need to check out the next town over but I guess shopping could be something to do.....Huh? Devon's eyes shifted away from the small device, glancing over at the man and his Lucario that seemed to be inspecting him. Who are those guys? Why are they looking at me like that? His eyes traveled back to his phone, but not before being caught by the white accessory on his left wrist. The Key Stone? Professor Rowan did say these things were super rare, it took him months to get a hold of this thing and the Mega stone that he gave Shock....They're probably looking at that..... The curious man spoke up, bringing Devon out of his thoughts as he turned his head up from the display and looked the man over. The stranger seemed nervous, it was obvious from his red face and slight stutter. Nodding, the Trainer spoke up. "Yeah. The Pokégear's map app gives the info of most of the places in Viore. Do you wanna look at it?" Grabbing the top part of the phone, Devon held it out towards the man.

Once Shinon spoke up to apologize for his Trainer's odd behavior, Biscuit and Cyan shared a glance with each other, before Cyan met the Lucario's gaze and frowned. <That's ok. What's wrong with him? Does he not like planes?> Biscuit seemed to be ignoring the scene, now interested in a Trainer's Butterfree that was flying lazily past the group.

Pent

As the teen turned his Pokégear towards him, his eyes lit up and a smile spread across his lips. Not only was he pleased about the fact that he now had a map to reference, as he left it in his suitcase, but also having the chance to see a Pokégear up close for the first time. Finally the flustered man managed to calm himself a small bit, nodding, and then finally speaking, "Oh! Yes, yes I would, thank you very much. I cannot seem to find my map..."

Shinon let out a worried grunt. It's in your main luggage that we still need to pick up.

Turning to Shinon, Pent blinked a few times before letting out a slightly nervous chuckle. "Ah, you're right my friend. I suppose I did keep it there so I would not lose it..." Looking over the teen's Pokégear, he furrowed his brows somewhat. "Quite a vast region, and I suppose I have to do some traveling to reach the ruins..."

When the Marill spoke, Shinon nodded towards it. <Indeed... the landing in fact made him quite ill, and I'm afraid he's yet to recover from the shock. By the way, I am Shinon, and my Trainer is Pent. It's a pleasure.>

Feeling that Shinon was introducing himself, Pent's eyes widened, glancing down at his Lucario before his eyes shot up to meet the teen's. "Oh! Ah, thank you for allowing me to look at your map. I'm Pent, and my partner is Shinon. Have you happened to see a young girl with red-hair around here?"

Shinon groaned. I hope you realize you sound like a stalker.

The nervous man then studdered, "O-Oh, you're quite right, Shinon..." Looking Devon in the eyes, he chuckled, scratching the back of his head. "N-Nevermind my last question."

"Rook" Vaahn Alphine


Relaxing by a Lake, Vaahn were skipping rock's together with his pokémon who were out at this time doing whatever they liked. Kaiser were off to the side and away from the others, not actually far away enough to be out of hearing range but he were currently quite busy trying to turn a large boulder upside down because... he could. He mostly practiced his strength on his own and this large boulder just happened to end up as his intended target.

Vaahn didn't mind Kaiser turning rocks around as long as he put them back afterwards as he didn't want to disturb the local flora and fauna too much by upsetting it. Twix sat were by Vaahn's side, happily bouncing all around the place and sniffing at flower among other things. Vaahn chuckled slightly as the presence of Twix always put him in a good mood as the pokémon's boundless energy always put his mind to ease. Ishaala were hanging around in the shadows beneath a tree, not one to loom around in the sunlight unless it was unavoidable. Vaahn could occasionally feel her starring at him to which he would look over to her and smile, of course he didn't mind the Mismagius being with them and she didn't mind getting a bit of fresh air either.

He felt like he could just sit by this lake forever, not minding the world around him at all... yet it wouldn't last forever. Eventually he would get up and nod to his three companions that it was time for them to continue. He returned Everyone but Twix who he let stay outside his pokéball and then headed off towards the region's starting town... or so to say as most new trainers went there to get registred. Vaahn himself already had everything he needed from there, but he were curious about seeing what the proffessor did at this time and see some new arrivals.

Arriving to the town Twix bounced by his side while singing to himself, Vaahn chuckled slightly to this as he inhaled deeply of the fresh mountain air. "Well... here we are Twix... New Amber Town... quite a cosy place wouldn't you say?... almost like home" he said to the pokémon who chimed its name happily in return.

Alfred Nora & Sonya Khalturin


Alfred and Sapphire nodded at eachother, "I guess I am up for doing the battle now" Alfred said as he locked up to the klefki orbiting his head, "Can we make sure its not all the way to fainting please I don't want to detour to a pokemon center before we get the pokedex."[/color] Alfred said as he looked around. "By any chance do you know of a place we can have our little one pokemon aside battle?" Alfred asked scratching his head. Kirlia doing it almost in synchrosity

Sonya only blinked a couple of times trying to register the fact that they needed a place to battle. She'd gotten excited and had completely spaced on that simple fact. "uhhhhh, we could, um...Maybe in the town square?" Sonya attempted to offer not really sure of the best place they could battle. After all she had only arrived just yesterday.

Carolina rolled her eyes as she began tugging at Alfreds shirt almost as if she remembered more about locations then he did. She dragged him in the general direction of a public battleground. It was embrassing But Alfred was used to this type of thing. It was less of a master servant relationship with his pokemon and more of a equal footing. either way. It was a small sandy battleground that greeted Alfreds sight. "Well I guess this is a spot we could battle. Thanks Carolina" Alfred said as he patted his Amaura on the head, she was cold to touch as always.

Sonya had giggled a bit at Alfred and Carolina. She had to admit, Alfred was definitely a bit unusual, and his pokemon were no exception either. It made things seem a bit more relaxed in the world. Upon reaching the battle ground Sonya smiled and nodded at Alfred. "This will do fine. So Alfred, I think I'll give you a choice. Pick a number between one and three." As she said this Sonya reached back and put her hand in a pouch on her backpack while she smiled excitedly for the battle.

Alfred took a spot on side of the sandy battleground, his mind thinking of who to choose himself, settling on a decision. He then decided to choose a number, 1 is way to low and 3 is way to high, two sets of pokemon will be fighting eachother so that decided the number. "I guess I am gonna pick the number 2 pokemon" Alfred said with a grin.

Sonya pulled out a pokeball as she walked to her own side of the field and released her Glaceon. "Sorry Glaceon, looks like you'll be sitting this one out, but I thought you might like to enjoy the show." Sonya had knelt down next to Glaceon petting the pokemon gently before standing up and turning back to Alfred grinning. "I'll try my best not to go overboard so we won't need to make a stop by the pokecenter, but that might be a little tricky now, but we'll see how things go, so then now that we have our field come on out Espeon!" Sonya threw a second pokeball into air to release her Espeon who purred abit as it showed up sitting and staring at Alfed.

Alfred nodded looking at the pokemon that had been sent out, Espeon, Agile , Psychic type, A cool looking pokemon. Carolina pouted at the sight of it, She was cuter then that feline thing. Honestly. Sapphire just grinned she knew exactly where this was going, she looked up at Alfred waiting for him to speak. "So you have two Pokemon from the Eevee line, Nice! Anywho The pokemon I choose to battle Is Lock." Alfred said as the Klefki flew down from above his head and hovered just above the ground opposite the Espeon. "Say when your ready" Alfred said as he poked his glasses up his face, they shone slightly in the sunlight. The Tactician had arrived

Sonya grinned excitedly. "I was born ready. I just hope you don't underestimate us, we'll make you sorry." Sonya winked at Alfred jokingly before pointing at Klefki. "Now Espeon let's kick this off with a Psybeam!" To this Espeon lifted her head for a moment as her eyes glowed a bit and a multicolored beam shot towards Lock as Espeon swung her head forward. Clearly Sonya wanted to start things off quickly, and she wasn't going to play around, too much.

Alfred watched the Psybeam launch forward, towards Lock. Seemed like Sonya wasn't one to mess around when it came to strangers. Good but it would take more then that to outspeed his Klefki. "Lock, Thunder wave!" Alfred said. The Klefki's arms unfolded as it darted beside the beam. A little scratched but the damage was minimal. Klefki soon erupted a ton of sparks that arced through the sky like tiny bolts of lightning, each one capable of paralysis. Seemed like Alfred was trying to setup something.

"Espeon, use Psychic!" Espeon's eyes glowed and a wall of sand came up between her and the thunderwave taking the brunt of the blasts, though the shocks on the sand also got a good little nip on Espeon from around her as the sand dropped. Her back left leg had a couple of sparks fly around it which meant that her leg was probably paralyzed. i "Espeon use Psychic!" Admittedly Sonya hadn't expected Lock to have the speed to dodge the Psybeam, so she would just have to damage him up a bit, and with that Espeon's eyes glowed once more as she projected a Invisible force towards Lock. Which surrounded him in a Bluish Purplish Aura.

Lock was slowly being attack by a invisible force, due to his steel typing it had little effect but it was still whittling down his health, "Lock, Use your signature move! FAIRY LOCK!" Alfred yelled as Locks eyes suddenly narrowed with determination. Lock Glowed white as hundreds of golden spectral like chains erupted out of his body surronding the battle field with a large amount of chains creating a solid but see through wall. Trapping the pokemon inside away from their trainers. "But I an't done, Lock aim towards the sky and use SPIKES!" Alfred yelled as the Klefki lauched a white ball upwards, it erupted into a large volume of rocky sharp objects That descended like a sharp hail into the chained area which made it almost impossible to dodge without a counter move. Lock and Alfred were trying to ruin the Espeons concentration by forcing it to evade.

Sonya looked around at the fairy lock, it was her first time seeing on, and it was definitely a sight to behold, but there would be another time to admire it, the spike attack would have to be dealt with, but why did one have to look at it as a bad thing? "Espeon Psychic once more!" This time the spikes that would've come even near Espeon's location lit up mid air. Normally it would have been harder for a pokemon to grab something of this amount in bulk, but with the training she'd been doing with Glaceon and Espeon this was second nature now. After grabbing them out of the air the spikes then moved to encircle Klefki like a tornado moving in to crush Lock.

"This isn't good but luckily. lock use Fairy wind!" Alfred said as The Klefki nodded It quickly rooted itself in the ground as a wind started to quickly arrive. it seemed to be carrying pollen and it was beautiful. but what it did do was begin to pick up all the spikes like a rushing wave, it didn't remove all of the ones surronding Lock, but it definitly reduced the damage. The spikes continued towards the espeon like a tidal wave, so many spikes it would be impossible to stop them all. "Like I said, Hes called lock for a reason"

Sonya was actually impressed by Lock at this point, but that wouldn't stop her from trying her best. "Espeon, use Hyper Beam!" Normally Sonya tried to save Hyper Beam, almost like a trump card, but this might just qualify. Thus Espeon raised her head a bit once more only to lurching forward as she took a step releasing the Hyper Beam from her mouth causing her to slide back a bit from the force cutting straight through the wave of spikes which opened a good sized window that would have them pass right by her if it weren't for the enormous amount of spikes, so Espeon would still get struck, but on a much lesser scale as the beam headed straight for Lock.

Lock looked at the Hyperbeam that was coming for him. He was too deep in concentration to move. But he could still brace himself for impact. Lock was enveloped in a flash of light, as the light exploded. He was still standing. Breathing heavily he looked out to see if his trump card had any effect. He was built for defense. He could take many a hit, He was the sentry

As all the sand and dust cleared Espeon stood strong, but yet it was clear she was worn out by the heavy panting and bruises she had suffered throughout the battle.
.
"I guess I call it there, Both pokemon looked like they had their fill" Alfred said as he looked at Lock win a grin. "Come back here Lock that was a good match, you sure proved to them your strength" Alfred said as the Fairy lock faded and Lock breathing heavily jumped over bruised and scratched all over its shiny metal surface. "Sapphire if you may start patching up Lock" Alfred said as he looked down to his kirlia with a look of reassurance. She was the most vital member of the team. The medic. Sapphire began using Heal Pulse. Basking her hands in a warm orange like as she applied them to Klefki enveloping the little key pokemon in a glow.

"Great Job Espeon, you made me proud as always." Sonya spoke softly to her Espeon as she returned it to it's pokeball. "Well Alfred, I have to admit you're pretty good. Makes me wonder...How many badges from other regions you might have." Sonya called out to Alfred as she switched to her final pokeball and smirking. "Now Natalie come on out!" And with a toss of a pokeball and another flash of light her Quilava Natalie appeared standing on two feet for a moment in curiousity beofre dropping low ready for a fight. "Alfred meet Natalie, my first pokemon ever!"

Alfred looked at the small firey pokemon, It seemed like it was ready to battle. "Nice I guess my first pokemons was Lock and Sapphire, Carolina came later, while we are on the topic of gym battles I am gonna be frank. I don't have any gym badges, didn't have the time to while i was finishing trainer school. That didn't mean I didn't train my pokemon but it just meant I was limited in how far i could travel." Alfred said as his Team looked up at him with a grin of happyness. "So i guess thats it for the battles. If you want to I could get Sapphire to patch your pokemon up." Alfred said with great trust in his Kirlia's healing abilty.

"That's alright, Espeon prefers to just rest until she's naturally better. It's kinda what we're used to where I was from since we were a ways away from the main city we just let our pokemon heal naturally unless they were sick and needed the Pokecenter. So, ready to head to the lab now?" Sonya offered with a smile. She was a bit surprised someone as old as Alfred appeared to be didn't have any badges yet, but that's alright, it's never too late to start. Finally Sonya pulled out another pokeball and returned Glaceon and Natalie. It was only polite to introduce Natalie after all.

"Well alright that makes sense" Alfred said in response Sonya when it came to the topic of how they healed their pokemon. neither the less Sapphire was an amazing assest to the team. So Alfred like to use her natural abiltys as much as possible. "Yea I guess its time we actually start heading to the lab." Alfred responded as Sapphire finished healing up Lock letting out a long sigh of relief as she did so, healing can be strenous sometimes. Lock returned to orbiting Alfreds head. A little more trusting of Sonya. Sapphire spoke inside Alfreds head again. "There" then after a short delay. "Done" The Kirlia said inside Alfreds mind as she stood back beside Alfred. "So err. What way is the lab again. I forgot after that battle" Alfred said slightly clueless.

Sonya giggled softly at Alfreds lack of memory and waved him over. "I'm pretty sure it's on the North end of town. So you know where you're going to head next after you get your Pokedex?" Sonya was hoping they could possibly go together, because these journeys were always more fun when you had friends, and as much as she might try and deny it for now, Alfreds team was starting to grow on her a lot.

"Thanks for the directions, And I guess I'll probably be heading towards the first gym or something" Alfred said as he looked at Carolina whom nodded in approval. Alfred would be sad to see Sonya leave, his team and himself had start to grow to like her company. Plus not to mention she was a coordinator. Either way he would probably see her again around the region. She was probably super busy with Contests and stuff. Alfred sighed under his breath. Sapphire had that worried Empathatic look on her face as if she knew what Alfred was feeling.

Sonya smiled as they began walking. "Depending on where that is and where the first contest will be, I might just be headed that way myself. We could head there together if you wouldn't mind? I know Natalie would love a chance to battle sometime and I think you'd be a great challeger for the task." Sonya wasn't sure if she was imposing a little too much again so she was trying to give an out to Alfred in case she was being a pest about it. A lot would depend on where some things were and what she decided to do first though and that would all be figured out shortly, at least Sonya really hoped so.

Sapphire blinked, another trainer that would be nice to have around, she could hone her own skills as a tacticain from more then just Alfred's techniques. Sapphire just continued to stare wide eyed in suprise at the Woman while Alfred spoke up once more. "I really wouldn't mind traveling the region with someone either if you don't mind but sure I'll be up to traveling togather with you." Alfred said with a smile as Carolina step back over to Sonya and tried to stroke her hair with her head.

Sonya giggled softly and started to pet Carolina as they walked to the lab. "Then it's settled, we'll be traveling together. By the way...Can you cook?" Sonya asked completely off hand, but it was relevant, sort of. She was able to cook for herself and everything, but it would be nice to have another person who could cook on the road so she wouldn't have to do it all the time, especially now that there was going to be more than just her to cook for! And so the casual talking began as they made there way to visit with Professor Maple so that the two could begin their journey.
