Basil just stared at her in silence after her suggestion seemingly stunned by her suggestion. He blinked a few times as he processed what she said and if Anise noticed, it looked like the corners of his mouth quivered as if they were valiantly doing their best to hold something back. Alas, his lips gave way to a push of air and for the first time Anise witnessed Basil laugh without any anxious undertones. If anything, he seemed relieved. "Bodyguard? Do you offer a hand to everyone, or did I endear myself to you that quickly?" He said in between laughs though eventually he stopped after taking a breath and maybe taking a step back to stay out of roundhouse kicking range. "I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you. Honestly, you'd be a really good bodyguard. It's just you're just so earnest and straightforward in everything you do that it's actually kinda cuuuoooooool. From his cheeks to the tips of his ears he lit up red when he realized what he was about to say. "It's kinda cool. Totally cool and nothing else," he quickly said in a panic, his words were almost hitting each other. Maybe the spores were making him a bit too honest?
Basil cleared his throat and pivoted the conversation away from his awkward hiccup. "To be honest, I have no idea what I've gotten myself into. What's weird is that the Pokemon hasn't even evolved past its first stage, which is how it was able to go around unnoticed. I didn't even know what I exactly had until after I caught her. Either she was stubborn about not evolving or they viewed her more as a pet." Whatever she was, that Gothita was a mystery. However, there were only a few certainties that he had.
Basil folded his arms and with strong conviction said,"Whoever is after her, they have the resources for manpower to track her down and capture her, so they're not weak. That means they are either a noble, someone of equivalent standing, or a group. Whoever they are, she certainly does not want to be caught and if she had a previous owner then there is no love for them."
The young man sighed, but forced a smile as he clapped his hands together as if to drown out his problems. "But that is a problem for future Basil. We're here because we need to investigate whatever Landorus gave us." He peeked down to look at Amelia and said, "We should get Amelia caught up to speed. How about we catch her up while we look for some leads? I think that Berry Garden will be a good start."

Basil looked down at his arm and shrugged to play it off as nonchalantly as he could. "Had to use my arm as collateral to convince a Deino to join my team. He likes to bite, a lot." Sure, he omitted what he had to do to get that point of recruiting a dragon, but that was for the best. If he told her what he actually did on that island there was a very likely chance that Basil would have received another lecture that he would not be able to escape from.
But anyway, he watched the brief interaction between Anise and Amelia before his companion asked him to confirm the purpose of their visit to the village. Yeah, we're here to learn more about the berries that Landorus gave us. Problem is that I never really got the chance to tell Amelia why exactly we are here because... well Basil trailed off as he wracked his brain to figure out how to even explain the situation he found himself in because he had no idea what was actually going on.
Basil clapped his hands together and tried his best to not look like a dog that left an accident on the family rug via a forced smile."Hypothetically speaking, I had to skip town because I acquired a level 74 Pokemon though it's more like she used me as a getaway from a group of people that were after her for some reason and now there is a very likely chance that they are now looking for me because there were a lot of witnesses that saw me perform for her and probably me 'catch' her. Hypothetically, I mean."
She had no idea what was worse; an eleven-year-old was trying to comfort her or the fact that the woods was filled with angry bugs that would jump them just for looking at them funny. "This is my hell," was all Freya said before they trudged through hellscape that was this bug infested misty woods. Sticks, leaves, and other debris crunched under their feet and besides the presence of countless other bug types that were lurking around every corner, they noticed nothing out of the ordinary. Yup, not another soul could be sensed. Well, in the metaphorical sense.
In reality, Amelia would feel that they were getting closer that she could indeed feel another soul and there were a lot of them. Beyond that, the bug-type Pokemon that made their home in the forest were watching the group of travelers with wary eyes. It was clear that they were not going to attack the travelers unless they were given reason to though that could easily change depending on whose territory they stumbled through. Perhaps they got that feeling when they say the deep slash marks in the trunks of the trees courtesy by something that was big and sharp, but they were smart to skirt around whatever's territory that was.
As they walked, they began to slowly descend downwards from the craggy path deeper into the woods, into the mist. The sound of running water drew nearer and the path became much more developed and cleared of debris. Eventually, they found themselves standing at a clearing.
Helga's Cabin
To find this cabin this deep in the woods meant someone really went out of their way to find this place. Anyone could tell that if a person lived all the way out there, then they were someone that wanted to be well enough alone. It was a dark, damp place; the only source of light were those coming from the cabin itself. At first glance it would appear that way, but there were more orbs of light floating around and with no close inspection needed they were all Pumpkaboo of great proportions though apart from that they seemed to be the only Pokemon to be around.
Pokedex Entry #710-Pumpkaboo, the Pumpkin Pokemon. Supersized Pumpkaboo are very partial to the spirits of people who were of similarly superior proportions. Pumpkaboo of this size are said to be the product of areas where a great number of lost souls lingered.
The cabin itself was well maintained on the outside though one could hardly imagine anyone living somewhere like this. It was completely isolated from the rest of the world, true isolation. There were no people, no civilization, nothing. In most cases, most people run away from finding a lone cabin in the woods in fear of being chopped up into tiny pieces or find someone in a hockey mask rise from the water. Is whatever that needs to be done worth it?
"I think I've seen a movie with the exact same premise. Definitely not rated PG." Freya joked halfheartedly as she looked around the open clearing. "Still, I didn't think people would actually choose to live like this. Not to mention the Pumpkaboo... What happened here?"
Well, they reached their destination. They could try and catch one of these floating pumpkins, but they were also on someone's property. Well, maybe not their property legally, but who was going to challenge the homeowner this deep in the woods? What do they do?
1. Find Pokémon.Can be specified what kind of Pokémon is being searched for, and how you search 2. Talk. Only one person here to talk to. 3. Exit. Exit the area. 4. Specify. If you specify what you want to do, the GM will take it into account and tell the result. 5. Trigger random event. Force the GM to use his imagination to make a scenario for you. 6. Go to the cabin. Knock on it. See what happens.
Once again, Jason sets off through the woods though luckily one of the Pumpkaboo that were floating around the cabin decided to help lead Jason through the winding path. While Jason kept a vigilant eye and an open ear to his surroundings, the only thing that he noticed were just the occasional creepy crawlies that skittled scuttled about the trees and the sound of his own footsteps. However, there was a brief moment when he thought that he heard something through the trees though chalked it up to just the wind. Yup, totally just the wind. That's what the dice said at least.
Eventually the fog would begin to dissipate, and light would begin to peek back through whatever clearing there was in this forest until he was back into the main area proper of Starbord Woods and then would trek through the forest to the village. Needless to say, he would eventually return to the village and would eventually take a gondola lift to the Scholar District. The gondola would shift occasionally with the breeze, but it would eventually come to a gentle halt.
Starbor Village
Scholar District
Within the shaded canopies of the village was a quiet layer, where the scholars and academics would gather to research and teach. A large portion of the district is taken up by the campus of Linnea University, one of the few big-name academic colleges outside of Edda City where they learned about the natural sciences and of course, Pokemon. The campus itself was littered about with laboratories as well as other facilities, one of them being a library that the university itself allows the general public to enter and beyond that there were a number of cafes where students can go to work in peace.
It must've felt like ages since Jason had last set foot there even though he was only walking along the cobble stoned streets only a day ago. It was moderately busy, some going to class, and some finished up with their day and were either going to study more or blow off some steam at the Entertainment District above them. Their days were definitely much more normal by comparison to his and in way, much more ignorant to what was happening around them though perhaps that was a good thing. Their only worries were about getting good grades and maintaining relationships after all. Or maybe Jason had his mind on entirely different matters.
Either way, Jason would find himself walking up the steps to the entrance of the library and entered. It was still as strange as it was before; the room was designed around the roots and branches that occupied the space. Lucky for Jason, he had no need to hunt around for the purple haired coffee zombie. She was at the front desk with a stack of books placed on the counter though turned her head to look at the source of the footsteps she heard from behind.
"Jason!" She bounced towards him with a strong perfume of cheap, highly caffeiniated coffee. "I'm glad to see you're safe. How are you doing? Did you learn anything?"
Well, what does he say?

Ramos with a kind elderly smile said, "I can only hope so." He stood there, waiting to see what Tristan would do to fight such a Pokemon. Even though he looked carefree, there was still a sharpness in his eyes. He was not waiting for Tristan to make the next move; he was assessing him not just to predict the greenhorn trainer's next move, but his potential as a trainer. Not that Tristan noticed it since he was wracking his brain to think up of some sort of strategy to defeat the green leafy demon in front of him.
Then the rich boy decided that he needed to switch and then sent out a very different kind of sparkling creature. "Oho? Another shiny? You're just full of surprises." He said with an amused mirth, but he soon became serious as Tristan gave his orders.
"Detect." The Grovyles eyes shimmered with a faint blue light as the haze rolled in from the Murkrow's mouth. Tristan would have no idea what it would do though perhaps he would be able to figure it out. "Now use Energy Ball and follow up with Leaf Blade." From the haze they could see green light grow from within and then a sphere of crackling energy blasted through the cloud and vaporized the feathers that were launched towards it. Then with great speed the green blur sped through the air with green energy scythes protruding from its wrist to swing down on the magenta bird.
The little pink gremlin looked at Faye thoughtfully and of course at the piece of metal. There really wasn't much for it to think about. "Tink!" It tapped the Pokeball that Faye had caught it in and returned to it.
Faye caught Tinkatink!

Would you like to give a nickname to Tinkatink?
"Two Tinkatinks huh? Gonna train them to bash Tristan's shins in?" Rosa joked with a malicious grin that may suggest that she was more than hopeful that Faye would. "What're you gonna do now? It seems like you're open again, unless you're going to dive headfirst into old, dilapidated farmhouses again."
Yeah, there really wasn't much to say about this. What was she going to do?

Well, he had never imagined a Nurse Joy to be less than joyful, but here they were. Basil watched the Nurse Joy scramble to patch up Amelia's ankle. Ethically was it okay to use medical supplies designed for the complex physiology of Pokemon on a human being? Probably not. Was it super effective? Yes, yes it was.
The matter was settled, so all that was needed was to find Anise. Luckily, he needn't look very hard. On the way in he spotted a familiar head of red hair sitting in a seiza position on the floor with her Pokemon though it was strange. For someone who was beginning a journey of a lifetime she looked less than enthused. "And that would be my travel companion brooding on the floor. Better let her know we're here before she leaves an imprint on the floor." Basil said before he made his way towards her.
"Hey, Anise!" He greeted with a kind smile as he approached though the last time she saw him he certainly did not have a piece of armor on his arm, a suspiciously blotchy sleeve, or a little girl tagging along with him. "It's been a bit. Everything all good?" The young trainer asked though he for some reason he felt like he was forgetting something even though he could feel her presence right by him. Basil glanced down towards Amelia with a look of realization.
"Oh, uh, right. I accepted a request on behalf of Professor Kalmia to help personally introduce another one of her trainers to the owner of the Private Palace. Uh, that will require an explanation. Actually, a lot of things happened after we separated." He chuckled nervously. For some reason, he felt like there was going to be quite a bit of exposition "But first, introductions. Anise, this is Amelia, one of Kalmia's trainers. Amelia, this is Anise, the disciple of the Redcoast gym leader."

A quick puff of air escaped his lips while he made a concerted effort to hide a smile. "You sure have a lot of questions."
Basil stuffed his hands in his jacket pockets and looked like he was in thought. The woman that he traveled with? For a moment he had no idea who she was even referring to though a look of realization came upon him. "You mean Lesley? Nah, you've got the wrong person. We're looking for Anise. Red head, doesn't really smile, but she's a good person and tough though that's to be expected from a disciple of a gym leader. Nearly jumped me when I first met her, but that was kinda my fault. It's a long story, but we'll catch you up to speed." That was his excuse at least. It wasn't like he had no idea where to start explaining that he helped expedite the release of a literal god of harvest and said god gave him and Anise a berry that no one had ever seen before or the existential dread that there two more of these things and they were becoming restless.
Moving beyond that can of worms, Basil pulled a Pokeball from his belt and nestled its marble sized form between his fingers. "As for your other question, I'd sure hope I caught something interesting after all that." With a click on the button, the ball cracked open and from a flash of light formed a little dragon with black fur speckled with purple spots and blue scales. Its vision was obscured by a thick layer of fur.
Dein? It tilted its head in confusion because again, the little dragon could not see a thing. It sniffed the air and made its way over with its stubby legs towards Amelia with Basil not too far behind.
"This is Soren. Careful, he can and will bite you if you get close enough." On cue, the little dragon opened its mouth and tried to jump up to chomp on the little girl's leg only for it to get a mouthful of metal. Basil intercepted with the piece of armor on his arm, which the dragon now hung from. It was wagging its even stubbier tail. "Case in point." A beam of red light absorbed the little biter back into its ball.
"I had to convince his mother to even get the chance to recruit him. Problem is that Hydreigons are incredible intelligent and violent with one heck of a malicious streak so you can't just say fluffy words and that be it. I found myself staring down its maw as it was ready to blow my head clean off and instead of running, I told her to do it. Can't say it was my brightest idea, but it worked. Still got lectured for it." He chuckled nervously, knowing that he was probably going to get the same treatment because frankly he deserved it. He was incredibly stupid. The only reason why he was not crumpling into a ball and meltdown from the absolute post-panic was because he had enough adrenaline coursing through his system.
Anyway!
"Anise would've liked to come along if she knew what I was up to. Then again, it was probably for the best that she didn't. She'd totally kill me for how reckless I was. Not like she'll ever know." Well, unless the universe said otherwise.

Under literally any other circumstances, Basil would have found a somewhat comfortable spot to sit down and draw the beautiful splendor that laid before him. Instead, he was hightailing away from Lakewatch because he just had to accept a Pokemon that could level city blocks onto his team. Well, that and the main priority was to make sure that Amelia could get medical treatment as soon as possible. The only solace he could take was that at least none of those weirdos attempted to look beyond Lakewatch's outskirts.
Speaking of weirdos, the singular very red house with its door wide open in the middle of the route had not escaped his notice. Then again, there were so many things to explore that it was a little overwhelming. It was as if the region was becoming more open to him. Perhaps when things settled, he could see what that was about, but for now he trudged along the worn-down patches of grass that acted as their path up north. Eventually, he would find himself in a forest.
The first thing that hit him was the aroma of the woods. Basil felt the tension leaves his body and almost melted into a puddle of relaxed muscles. The second was the sight of a village in harmony with nature. In a way, it reminded him of home. It was mainly the calmness. It was like the energies of Worldedge City that kept it afloat, the thing that made its residents feel at ease with the world. In his chest, he felt a twinge of homesickness though he shook it off. There were more pressing things to deal with.
Basil turned to Amelia and said, "We'll head to the Pokemon Center. My acquaintance and I are supposed to meet there. I'm sure a Nurse Joy could look at your ankle." Sure, they weren't people doctors, but surely, they knew how to tend to humans. Trainers were prone to getting hurt, so it wasn't unthinkable.
So, Basil would lead Amelia though with less anxiety about her being held up by her Drifloon. Frankly speaking, most of the people in the village were probably too blazed to even really notice or care. The only thing that made him anxious was making Anise waiting for as long as she did because he probably made her wait considering the misadventures he had.
Ahem, perhaps it was not something that needed special conditions, but practice? Or bullshit anime logic? Who knows? I'm just a disembodied voice that no one can actually hear.
Well, Rapid Spin's speed boosting effects would actually work if they made contact with the target. However, fate decided that Tristan rolled high enough. Anime bullshit logic it is. Angel's speed was beginning to pull up the leaves from her previous attack and spun around her. The leaves ripped up the grass up from beneath and sputtered all over the crowd watching them. A particular large patch of earth hit Louis square in the chest, leaving a brown blotchy stain on his nice suit.
"Are you bloody-?!"
But we don't care about Louis. What was important that Angel rushed towards the energy sapping beams of light with her swarming leaves and broke through! The Gossifleur charged and the Lombre was slashed by a series of leaves before being knocked on its back with X's for eyes.
Louis, in his ruined suit, lifted a handkerchief towards Tristan. "Lombre is unable to battle! Gossifluer wins!"
Just has he said that Tristan's Pokedex rang with notifications.
Angel is now level 11! The combination of Rapid Spin and Leafage created a new move. Would you like to name it?
Meanwhile, Ramos rubbed his chin with a grin. "Oh ho? How interesting. Maybe my instincts were right about you, sprout. Don't celebrate just yet. The real fight starts now." He grabbed one more Pokeball from his belt and out from it came his final Pokemon. It was this large green and red bipedal lizard with a singular long leaf protruding from its head and leaves protruding from the sides of its wrists and two leaves for a tail. It stared at Tristan with cool, collected yellow eyes.
Pokédex Entry #253 – Grovyle, the Wood Gecko Pokémon. Grovyle leaps from branch to branch in large trees, moving with ease. It propels itself with astounding speed and force.
Again, his Pokedex chimed in.
Warning, this Pokemon is higher level than the rest of your team. Proceed with caution.
The Grovyle held in its hand a green with an ochre yellow tip and tossed it in its mouth. It chewed on the seed and as soon as it swallowed it, green energy began to emit a green light.
Grovyle ate a Grassy Seed. Defense increased by one stage due to the garden! Grass Seed consumed! Unburden was activated! Grovyle's speed has doubled!
This thing was a raid boss. Ramos had not given any orders to the Grovyle yet. He was waiting to see what Tristan would do.
After a meal and a rest, Jason stood outside the cabin with Helga by his side.
"Well, I guess this is it. You better see that scientist or whoever ask you to check down the shrine." In case Jason forgot, he originally went to find the shrine at the request of Professor Jacquelyn who was probably still waiting for him in the Scholar District. It had been a while, so it would've been easy to forget.
Anyway, the titan of a woman stood there with her arms crossed, uneasy. "Again, I'm sorry. I never imagined that things would've escalated like this." There was definitely guilt there, but acceptance of what she had done. However, she still had that look that she knew more than what she was letting on though her lips were sealed. "Remember the favor I asked in return? Consider it null and void since I never really expected you to actually do it. However, what I said wasn't a lie. The moss found on Ekans in Blue Lichen Cave is quite useful for medicine. If you do catch one, bring it to me and I will reward you. The least I can do after all of that."
Goodbyes were said, yada yada yada.
Well after all of that, Jason had the reigns returned for his journey. What do he want to do?
Helga's Cabin
To find this cabin this deep in the woods meant someone really went out of their way to find this place. Anyone could tell that if a person lived all the way out there, then they were someone that wanted to be well enough alone. It was a dark, damp place; the only source of light were those coming from the cabin itself. At first glance it would appear that way, but there were more orbs of light floating around and with no close inspection needed they were all Pumpkaboo of great proportions though apart from that they seemed to be the only Pokemon to be around.
Pokedex Entry #710-Pumpkaboo, the Pumpkin Pokemon. Supersized Pumpkaboo are very partial to the spirits of people who were of similarly superior proportions. Pumpkaboo of this size are said to be the product of areas where a great number of lost souls lingered.
The cabin itself was well maintained on the outside though one could hardly imagine anyone living somewhere like this. It was completely isolated from the rest of the world, true isolation. There were no people, no civilization, nothing. In most cases, most people run away from finding a lone cabin in the woods in fear of being chopped up into tiny pieces or find someone in a hockey mask rise from the water. Is whatever that needs to be done worth it?
1. Find Pokémon.Can be specified what kind of Pokémon is being searched for, and how you search 2. Talk. Only one person here to talk to. 3. Exit. Exit the area. 4. Specify. If you specify what you want to do, the GM will take it into account and tell the result. 5. Trigger random event. Force the GM to use his imagination to make a scenario for you. 6. Go to the cabin.

If he decides to leave.
Deep Starbor Woods
Deep Starbor Woods was a place that many actively avoided and perhaps for good reason. The mist that permeated the area cutdown the visibility within the woods and somehow, the canopy above was thicker than before, making it darker. This was a tad big dangerous as there were some drops that if someone were not paying attention, they would find themselves with some very broken limbs or fall in a river down below. That is if they don't fall in some webs and find themselves on the wrong end of a hungry bug-type. Actually, people just needed to be careful of these webs in general as they were littered all over the place.
Due to the lack of people travelling and lack of people volunteering to enter, the path that led to the Deep Woods was essentially now just a dirt, rocky path covered with moss. Yes, this place was not exactly a place that experienced a lot of foot-traffic in general, but that meant that there were possibly encounters that people had limited experience about or never had seen before.
From what can be seen, the Pokemon responsible for all of the webs in the area were these green spiders with markings meant to scare predators away from them.
Pokédex Entry #167 – Spinarak, the String Spit Pokémon. With threads from its mouth, it fashions sturdy webs that won't break even if you set a rock on them. Although the poison from its fangs isn't that strong, it's potent enough to weaken prey that gets caught in its web.
There were also these horned caterpillar things with big, pink, round noses and every now and again, sentient yellow cocoons could be seen hanging above from strings of white.
Pokédex Entry #013 – Weedle, the Hairy Bug Pokémon. Weedle has an extremely acute sense of smell. It is capable of distinguishing its favorite kinds of leaves from those it dislikes just by sniffing with its big red proboscis (nose).
Pokédex Entry #014 – Kakuna, the Cocoon Pokémon. Kakuna remains virtually immobile as it clings to a tree. However, on the inside, it is extremely busy as it prepares for its coming evolution. This is evident from how hot the shell becomes to the touch.
However, the main reason as to why many people avoided took the form of very angry bees with drills for arms. You know what they are.
Pokédex Entry #015 – Beedrill, the Poison Bee Pokémon. Beedrill is extremely territorial. No one should ever approach its nest—this is for their own safety. If angered, they will attack in a furious swarm.
However, there was something else that Jason could do. He could hear three voices off in the distance though it was up to him if he wanted to approach.
The Lombre repeatedly smacked the Leafages as they came, getting ever closer to and closer to its opponent. With more leaves scattered about Tristan ordered Angel to spin once again and... nothing happened. The leaves glowed faintly with green light, but for some reason they would not take off from the ground again Perhaps it was something that needed to be practiced in order to be pulled off consistently.
Its hand came down and smashed the opposing grass-type back though it was a trade of blows. After all, Angel still used Rapid Spin. The Lombre was smacked in the face by an errant leafy hand before it landed its blow against Angel. The little plant was sent flying back and perhaps that would've scared Tristan though perhaps he had not really noticed it yet, but the diva was somehow nimbler than before. It was like she was gliding about in the air though that should not have been a surprise. After all, Rapid Spin and her previous attack increased her speed by two-fold. At this moment, she was just barely faster than her opponent.
"We still have the momentum! Use Mega Drain!" Ordered Ramos.
A sickly green energy glowed around the Lombre and it then it darted forward towards Angel.
"Of course I'm right. Now, relax. I'm going to make some food." She placed some kindling in her woodstove, small sticks that were made from cutting logs down further and further until their diameter resembled that of a matchstick. Carefully she placed a match in the heart of the kindling pile, and it took a little bit of time for the fire to really catch, but eventually it became strong enough that she threw three smaller logs inside it and slammed the door shut. Jason would feel the room become warmer, if not slightly uncomfortably so if he was heavily dressed, as the logs caught fire.
It was actually quite the device that stove. It had rivets on the top that allowed for stove top cooking and an oven. If Jason watched, he would see that she was rough chopping various vegetables, onions, carrots, peppers, celery, potato, and so on before throwing them into a pot filled with premade stock. It was a sweet smell; warm spices filled the air and was soon accompanied by the smell of bread baking in the oven. Obviously, she had made the dough prior to Jason arriving at her doorstep. Then at some point she pulled out a grate full of mushrooms of various shapes and sizes that she soon chopped up and fried on the stove. The scent of mushrooms was accompanied by rosemary and thyme.
Now that Jason had a moment to sit down and actually look around there was something off about the cabin; there were no personal effects. Yes, there was furniture, but they looked like they were scrapped together crudely just to be functional enough to be used for moderate comfort and durable enough to take some punishment. They were tools with no emotional sentimentality attached to them. What was weird was that there was nothing in the cabin that was not like that. There were no pictures, no meaningless knick knacks, or anything, nothing that showed anything about her life or whatever her life was before living in these woods. It was all rugged and cold utilitarianism.
However, those thoughts would probably have been pushed to the side as food was placed in front of him. A bowl of soup with a red surprisingly red stock packed to the brim with vegetables, a big hunk of bread with butter on the side, and a pile of mushrooms on a plate. Now, it was questionable if the food would've been good. After all, her coffee would've been considered cruel and unusual punishment. However, this was actually good. The soup was light and refreshing with an acidic kick towards the end, the bread was light and fluffy, and the mushrooms were very much meaty, herbaceous, and savory.
So, they could act out the meal or just move forward.

The only thing that ran through his mind when he saw Amelia supported by her Drifloon was its entry when he first encountered them on Route 3. This could only lead into so much misunderstanding, but right now he was not going to fight her on this. Basil glanced down at his Pokedex to look at the map to get any sense of where they could go, but to his dismay there really was only one place that was close enough to get Amelia the treatment she needed.
"Okay, we'll just off road it to Route 5. Man I'm gonna have a lot to explain to Anise." He muttered to himself. Sure, they could try their luck with Lakewatch, but if these people were smart then they would have been looking for a trainer matching his description and had a few of their members keeping watch at the entry points. That was if they haven't already figured out that he already left town.
Basil pocketed his Pokedex and turned his attention back to the little girl dangling by a haunted ballon. "We should leave. I don't know who they are, but if they have any sense then they're probably looking beyond the town. I say we have some time before one of them finds their way up here. They're after a Pokemon I caught and if they as strong as her then we're in real big trouble."
Unless Amelia had any protests, Basil was going to take them a bit off the beaten path because he wanted absolutely no smoke with a group of people that were hunting for a level seventy-four Gothita.

For the entirety of his escape from Lakewatch Basil kept looking back to see if anyone was following him. Luckily for him, it looked like no one had figured out that either he had the Gothita or had left the city yet. The thought that he at least had given some comfort while he trudged his way up the hill though his head start could only have given him so much time before they would look around the outskirts outside. Basil looked severe as he was lost in thought about his situation until he reached the top of the hill. His eyes fell upon Amelia from a distance, sitting on a rock while she waited for him.
I need to calm down. No need to stress her out. The young noble exhaled deeply and forced his body to release its tension before he approached her. "Hey there, Amelia. How are you holding up?" He asked with a warm smile. "Sorry if my message scared you. I think I invited trouble upon us." Basil lifted his arm up and pulled his hood down from his head though the arm he used to do that was the one that looked like a crime scene.
His eyes darted at the sleeve, and he tensed up. "Oh, uh, this isn't related. It's my blood. Wait, that doesn't sound better." Great, he looked like a serial killer. If he made it through this then he needed to get that jacket washed. Basil sighed and said, "One of my new partners did that. It's a long story, but that's not important. We can't go back into town. Things have gotten complicated." He glanced down at her leg. "Can you bear weight on your foot?"
