I have three tattoos on my neck and I hope indeed they keep someone from fighting me... otherwise I'm gonna be in trouble.

There are two ways to truly love someone: Become their best friend and then learn to love them, or love them enough to become their best friend. Either way, you won't be loved back. ;)

I also drink coffee before sleeping. Odd indeed, but it works for me.

The status bar is okay, but the "Friends: You have no friends" message is heart breaking.
@Joshua Tamashii Awww. I must make amends to make Loli like me again. ... ... ... Later. XD
@Pirouette Oy! I am not rolling for EVERYTHING! Just general luck. I have considered why this man had all these things, and I believe it makes sense in my mind! I don't ever really roll for WHAT appears. Just... a little something to inspire me. The contents of the Pokéball and that egg is certainly not random! Haha.
@Project And... gosh, you posted fast. Nicely posted. Unfortunately, I am falling asleep and can't have her answer you that fast. Sorry. PlatinumSkink, collapsing! --- *capoof*
Don't collapse! But get yourself some rest, you deserve it! *nod*
Hmm... Those are rather good guesses. Maybe one in the egg and the other in the Pokeball? But yes, Platinum seems to be rolling for results which means it could be any Pokemon.
Oh, that's true. If it's something like that, I've just spent all my luck in this one event - I doubt the Dice Gods will bless me again XD
That was a super fast of a post. I'm glad though because I want to see what is in the Pokeball, too. o.O
Being excited and happy makes me efficient! XD I'm still wondering what it might be. Duskull, maybe? Sneasel? I'm assuming these because of the evolutionary items Erza also got. Buuuuuut it could be something completely different.
@Project *snicker* Yupp. I would have been surprised if you had expected that.
So, will he let the Pokémon out? If so, I suppose I could edit in the description of the Pokémon. But it will be under my control until he officially decides to keep it, if he decides to do so. Hah.
Edit: ... Or, that depends on how quickly he takes it out. Does he do so immediately? If the answer is anything else than "yes", you're gonna have to be dying for a bit longer. Hahaha.
You can tell how absurdly curious I am by the fact I already posted?
It's not yes :( But almost, he takes it out after questioning the woman (who I hope is still there lol) about all that.
inb4 she goes: "No I was wrong, give me all here" XD
friendly edit: by the way, if any of you feel like adding item sprites to your inventories, feel free to grab 'em from mine... I took it all from bulbapedia XD

But now, Pureplain City takes up pretty much all of the plain. Wonder what happened to the beast?’ ‘Daisy is soooooooo pretty! She’s our own little star! She’s surely going to be a real Elite Four one day, or perhaps the Isson Champion! I’m sure of it!’ ‘Maple was so strong… She just appeared, melted everything and then went her own way. Where did she even find all those Fire-types? I know there are Growlithes on Route 1, but yikes!’ ‘I-I-I… I thought Penelope was just an idol… G-guess she’s also a trainer, she floored us… Hahaha… Guess she’s staying to try to become our Champion for a while… Maybe I can get her autograph…?’ ‘Evolutionary stones? Oh, yeah! You want to Raremine Town, and the Desert Mines! They get all kinds of stones from in there! It’s way east of here. Look it up! Otherwise, look near the right element. Thunder Stones just seem to show up around power plants, Leaf Stones in forests, Fire Stones in volcanoes, and so on!’
So much interesting information came to Erza all at once. The boy even felt a little disappointed that he didn't bring something to write them down so he wouldn't lose them. But, no matter what, there were two pieces of information that the boy wouldn't let pass in the slightest: First, Growlithes in Route 01. Erza knew that pokémon, a fire-type, strong, loyal and it evolves to Arcanine when exposed to a fire stone - which could be found in Raremine Town or the Desert Mines! Not only that, he could find some other stones in appropriate locations. Maybe there are some leaf stones where I found those flying grass types! Thought the trainer, obviously remembering the event where he encountered a bunch of Tropius together.
There were more information: Daisy was probably a good prodigy trainer. Penelope, possibly a talented one. But, did that really matter to Erza? He wasn't going to stick around for all that long. No, he just wanted to ask some stuff, get the information and then leave - of course, he could get some action and fun here, but...
It was frightening. Those kids, they knew too much and they probably had practical use for their knowledge, too. Their faces itself already screamed 'I'M A GOOD TRAINER!' alone. Not that Erza wasn't confident in his own abilities - but a fact is a fact: He might've caught three pokémon, but he's still a beginner and has a very long way to go. And this corridor seemed quite long...
... And haunted! Erza noticed something floating around and without doubt, used his pokédex to confirm his thoughts.
Pokédex Entry #353 – Shuppet, the Puppet Pokémon. It senses the emotions of others, and feeds on dark emotions like jealousy, malice, anger and sadness through its horn. They’re very active at night, and search cities for the houses of vengeful people. They like to gather under eaves.
The pokédex provided even more information that Erza didn't expect at first: It was wild! And Erza was all grinning and getting ready to catch it despite the fact that it seemed really out of place given the time and place - when he remembered that literally none of his pokémon could touch a ghost type. He frowned, swallowing up the slight frustration that temporarily washed over him as he moved forward. He overheard a conversation - which made him come to a halt. Curiosity, maybe?
... More than curiosity, it was perhaps Erza's destiny to be there. As the man moved out of the door and spotted Erza, he handed all of the stuff he carried to the beginner trainer - who was in disbelief
There were so many things in there! Flowers, a cloth that radiated some form of energy, a feather wing that seemed to emanate inexplicable power, an egg?! Erza could barely believe his eyes - and arms - that all of this had just been randomly given to him. He might've been put into some sort of illusion, for sure?
After a few seconds the man disappeared and all the Shuppets seemed to have followed him. Erza swallowed, still keeping all of the stuff in his arms. Well, asking wouldn't hurt, but if he could keep this all... his journey would become increasingly interesting. The boy stepped into the room where he overheard the conversation before, there was woman here, right?
"O-Oi, wait a second?" The boy began, gesturing his newly given... items. "Th-There was this really imposing man, with a fancy - but extremely stylish - black attire! He handed me all this, I don't think.. I think - erm, should I really keep it? They were your gifts, right?" Finally, the boy took a deep breath - a hand struggled to catch, from all this stuff, the lone pokéball in the middle of it all. Could he tell it wasn't an empty pokéball? The weight, maybe? The way it looked, perhaps? No matter how, the boy felt like opening it and seeing himself it there was anything inside. The man did give him a pokémon egg, anyway - so a pokéball with a pokémon already in it wasn't too unbelievable.... And then, of course, Erza finally decides to open the pokéball and finish his doubts for once and for all! Well.. there was still the many doubts regarding the items and the egg, but this one would at least be eliminated.
@Project ... I'll have you know. I roll a die to figure out how "lucky" a random event is. It's a virtual die with many, many sides. ... I had to pause for a moment after rolling that one. Hahahaha.
WHAAAAAT!!! BOY I WASN'T EXPECTING THAT IN THE SLIGHTEST LOL
Alsooo! I'm dying of curiosity, which pokémon is that? Oh boy I need to sit and think over how Erza will react. xD
EDIT of happiness: Lunar Wing? Oh Cresselia, sweet Cresseliaaaaaaaaaa
@Project You're catching them in Pureplain City, of course they're Normal-type! XD ... That aside, heh. Dorian might actually appreciate an apprentice. Haha.
Alright, nicely posted. I like the details. Haha. And, heh, you're actually heading to the trainer's school, eh? I was slightly expecting everyone to completely ignore it. Well, let's see what happens. XD
Oh boy, I hope I didn't cause any problem with that, lol. I kinda noticed no one gave it attention, so I was like... "Why not? Back in Platinum, it was always fun battling the nerd kids with their TM Hidden Power Abra."

You know, the two pokémon looked slightly like each other. They had similar size and fur color, after all! However, Eevee had something that the wild Lillipup didn't! A grand, master trainer commanding it's every move - and of course, the Eevee loyally obeyed, which guaranteed the success after the tackle finally connected with the Lillipup. Erza cheered, wildly throwing his hand into the air! "Aye! Now, take this!" From his pocket, a very small pokéball was produced. It grew into an average sized one with the click as Erza pressed the button in it's center and then, it flew straight towards the Lillipup, who was already weakened sufficiently.
It shook once... twice. And bam! Rather, Tick! the pokéball's center glowed with a green light, symbolizing that the pokémon had been caught. Erza took his pokédex, ticked 'no' for the nickname offer and moved to take the pokéball from the ground. He raised it up to take a look, smirking.
"Vee! Eevee! The evolution pokémon seemed quite happy with his and his trainer's success. Great.
Erza moved on. There was many Pidgey around and Erza would obviously try his hand at one - Every trainer probably did! But his Pidgey would be top-percentage for sure. Eevee moved alongside Erza and once the two of them got in range of a seemingly distracted Pidgey, Erza simply gestured, pointing his right arm forward, index finger precisely pointed at the lone Pidgey a few meters ahead. "You know what to do, Eevee! Tackle! And with that, "Veeeee! Eevee simply notified Pidgey and everything around it that it was going for a tackle by chanting 'Vee' until the tackle connected. This Pidgey didn't go down easy, though! It tackled right back.
Of course, Erza wouldn't go easy either. A pokéball came flying straight into the flying type, the red light absorbing it inside the sphere as it fell onto the ground. The ball shook once... twice... thrice. The green light of success appeared once again! That's two for Erza and 0 for... someone! Eevee seemed happy, too. As Erza was terrible with nicknames, he decided to give the Pidgey one at a later date, after more thought.
The trainer leaned down, picking up his new partner's pokéball. Eevee hoped on his shoulder and he tilted his head with a smile, looking at the pokémon. "I was feeling really bad for losing, you know. For a second, I thought I had failed every of my expectations as a trainer... but! I'm not letting you down, Eevee. We just got started, right? Whenever we battle a trainer again, I'm sure we'll do much better!" Eevee however seemed to not mind at all. It just nodded and softly brought it's paw against Erza's cheek. It pointed forward.
And, as Erza looked in the direction Eevee pointed, he saw a pokémon that wasn't as common as the others. There was a wild white/beige cat like-Pokémon resting on a fence. Erza quickly brought his pokédex to his hand, using it to analyze the wild pokémon!
Pokédex Entry #52 Meowth, the Scratch Cat Pokémon. During the night Meowth are known to sneak around stealthily in search of prey and shiny objects which it adores with a passion. During the day, Meowth is known to laze around all day. In the dark, its eyes glow.
Of course, the boy quickly commanded his Eevee. Tackle was the opening battle choice, as always! The evolution pokémon quick picked up it's pace as it moved straight in the Meowth's direction - who had jumped out of the fence. Much to Erza's surprise, however, the Meowth's reflexes were insanely good. It perfectly countered the tackle with a scratch and it seemed to cause quite the damage on Eevee. Now, this one wasn't like before at all, so Erza assumed that he'd need some strategy.
"Right, right! This one's tough, so.. Let's hinder it a bit, right? Sand-attack!" Eevee used it's paws to throw dirt, sand or grass- whatever he could, to lower his opponent's accuracy. The Meowth however, was quite brave and just dashed ahead, bringing it's claws against Eevee once more. Eevee was hit, but was still up for a fight!
"Now, growl! Follow up with tackle!" With that, Eevee growled and while it wasn't intimidating as an Arcanine, it still lowered the Meowth's attack by one stage. The wild pokémon tried to scratch Eevee again, but this time, he missed by a very small margin; perhaps luck-factor played in Erza's favor now. Still, the Eevee's tackle connected, sending the Meowth staggering one or two steps back.
"Sand-attack again! And don't get hit!" Hinder, evade, attack. This was Erza's strategy for now - it seemed to work fine, by keeping Meowth's attacks away from Eevee until there was a certain possibility for a tackle, Erza eventually managed to overcome the wild pokémon and, the last pokéball in his pocket was used, flying straight into the cat-pokémon. It shook once... it shook twice... Grand! The third pokémon had been successfully caught.
"Eeveeeee! Even while very tired, the pokémon still cheered with it's trainer. Erza picked up Eevee's own pokéball, smiling warmly at him. "You've done a great job, Eevee. How about you get some rest?" While it didn't seem all that intent on returning to the pokéball, the Eevee could agre that it was tired - so, it moved forward and nodded. Erza opened the pokéball, the Eevee flowing inside with a red flash. Now. Erza couldn't move ahead with all his pokémon tired, so... to the pokémon center!
And in the way to the pokémon center, Erza saw something interesting. He mentally agreed to return there once his pokémon was healed... Which didn't take long. He gave his four pokéballs to the nurse and she returned him his four pokéballs. His pokémon all healed and ready to go!
Now, Erza went to the one place he had in mind, assuming it would be worth visiting: The Trainer's School.
@PlatinumSkink 6.5. Visit Trainers School. Where young trainers study to become better. Has a little park of wild Pokémon. 2. Talk. In the trainer's school, Erza will talk with whoever is there and see what he can learn about pokémon that is interesting and helpful. He might have questions especially about Evolutionary stones... 5. Trigger random event. If you have anything in mind regarding the trainer school, if not, all good.
