Despite taking longer than expected, Grae and their Pokemon arrived at the inn. They walked through the front door and to the front desk. The place was rather quaint. The inn was a mostly wooden building and well lit. The furniture was mostly dark in color which, combined with the wooden exterior, gave the place a rustic feel. “Hello. I would like to check into a room for the night,” Grae said to the middle-aged man behind the desk. “Wonderful! Will you all be needing a large room or is a standard-sized one fine?” he asked in response. “Just a standard one is fine. I don’t have too many companions as of yet.” The man then requested some personal information from Grae before handing them a key to the room. “Your room is 111 here on the first floor. It is down this hall here.” Grae thanked the man before putting the key away. They thought it would be nice to visit the park that was nearby before they headed to the room to rest seeing as it was not particularly late in the day yet. They led their Pokemon out of the inn and to the park that was next to the inn. “You all are free to look around the park. I shall call for you all in a bit for us to return to the inn.” Kazuno found a shady spot beneath a tree and began to meditate. Fumitaka, a bit hesitant at first, left to go into the park’s fountain and float on his back in apparent bliss. Cei did not leave but instead made a request to Grae, “I was wondering if we could sing together for a bit like we did at the monastery sometimes?” “Ah, yes, I would love that. Let’s go to the other side of the park so we don’t disturb Kazuno’s meditation.” The two then found a place away from the tree Kazuno meditated beneath and began to sing together. Shortly after starting though, a nearby trash can began to rustle. The two stopped singing, curious about the noise. Cei approached the trash can and began to sniff, trying to find out what was in the bin making the noise. Suddenly, a mysterious form jumped out of the trash can right at Cei who instinctively scratched at it. The form was knocked back against the trash bin. Grae came over to investigate the situation. It appeared that the mysterious form was actually a young Lillipup, which now lay knocked out in front of Cei. “Ah! I am so sorry! It startled me and I thought it was attacking!” Cei tried to explain his actions. “It is okay. I can use a couple of potions on it and it should be fine.” Grae pulled out potions and healed the Lillipup. It then got up and shook off the dust from its body. “There! All better!” Cei approached the Lillipup and said, “I am sorry for attacking you! I was startled when you jumped out at me!” The Lillipup smiled and licked Cei’s cheek to show it forgave him. “Hmmm, I wonder why this Lillipup was in the trash bin. Does it not have a trainer? It looks so young… I don’t suppose it has a family to look after it either…” Grae paused while trying to decide what to do next, “Did you perhaps want to come with us? I don’t think you’d have to eat from the trash with us.” The Lillipup let out a bark and nodded its head, wagging its tail with happiness. Taking that as a yes, Grae gently tapped a Pokeball to its forehead. Once it stopped shaking, they released the Lillipup from the Pokeball. “I am happy you will be joining us!” Cei said to the Lillipup. “I am too! We can introduce you to the other two, little one. Then, we can head back to the inn we’ll be staying at and get you washed up. Although, I suppose that you’d need a name to introduce you… How about Crème as I am sure you are sweet?” Crème barked an excited bark after which, Grae pat its head a bit before walking back to where Fumitaka and Kazuno were. Battle Summary: Cei (Zorua) used scratch (-30), Lillipup (level 2) lost 30 hp (30-30 = 0hp) Lillipup is defeated. Grae captures Lillipup

With Crème and Cei behind them, Grae went back to Fumitaka and Kazuno. “This little guy will be joining us on our journey, you two. His name is Crème He is still young and foolish, but he means well, so please be kind.” Grae introduced their other Pokemon to the small Lillipup with a gentle smile. Crème let out a couple of barks to greet Fumitaka and Kazuno. Kazuno bowed to greet him but Fumitaka scowled down at the rather dirty puppy and turned his nose away. Grae was about to address this when they heard their X-transceiver ring. They pulled it out and answered the call, which turned out to be a global notification for trainers. On the screen appeared Carrie Sunita, the world-famous Pokemon News Network broadcaster who even Grae knew. She spoke with great excitement about the news she was giving. The announcement was of the start of a competition involving traveling to Pokemon Centers around the regions and collecting stamps then turning them in for a reward. Although not part of their original plans, Grae did think this would be a good way for them to get to know the world outside of the monastery even if it is just a quick overview at first. They thought about how they could always come back to visit places later if anything piqued their interest. Once the announcement was over and Carrie signed off, Grae was about to put their X-transceiver away when it gave them a little shock, causing them to drop it to the ground. The machine let out a giggle before the screen turned off. Grae and their Pokemon surrounded the device with wonder. “Is this how these devices are supposed to act? I am new to this technology…” When they all got close to the device, the screen suddenly flashed on and a cartoonish but scary face appeared and growled at them all. This scared Fumitaka and Crème, who both jumped back. Cei was surprised and amused by this. Grae and Kazuno were unphased and now had a suspicion as to what was happening and looked at each briefly. Grae gently tapped the screen of the device and said, “Hello? Rotom? Is that you in there? I will say that was a pretty good trick you did. You really had us there for a moment. However, I would prefer if you stopped pranking us. Would you like to talk?” There was a pause before a voice came from the device. “Really? You thought my prank was good?! Oh boy! I got someone! I was waiting for so long in this X-Transceiver to scare whoever bought it and I did it! Well, I guess I only stumbled upon the device a few days ago. But it was worth it! Wait, how did you know I was a Rotom?” “I used to live at a monastery where the monks were sometimes called to exorcise “ghosts” from machines that ended up being mischievous Rotom like yourself. I never met one, but I had a suspicion as to what you were. I am Grae Taiji, by the way. Do you have a name?” The face on the screen changed expressions from one of pride and joy to one of curiosity. “Well, I don’t actually have a name. I haven’t talked to humans more than just to get a quick scare out of them, so nobody has ever bothered to give me a name. You do seem pretty cool though! For some reason too, I feel like maybe I don’t want to just scare you, but like I want to do more, maybe the word is ‘help?’ Scaring people has gotten a bit boring lately with all the waiting, plus, it does get lonely when people just run away from you because they are scared… Yes! I want to help you and travel with you! Would that be okay?” Grae noticed Fumitaka frown at this idea but understood that he might be a bit upset at being scared. Unlike Fumitaka, Grae thought this was a great idea and pulled out a Pokeball. “Of course you can! It is always good to have more friends. Plus, you seem to know about technology, unlike me, so it should be easy finding a task for you on our team!” The Rotom immediately jumped from the X-transceiver to the Pokeball, which was then covered in small bolts of electricity, but this time, none of them shocked Grae. Once the capture sequence of the Pokeball was completed, Grae released Rotom from the ball to continue their conversation on the topic of names. “Now that we have agreed on traveling together, we still need to figure out a name for you… I was thinking of the name Watson with the nickname Watts since you are quite electrifying! How does that sound?” Cei took a moment to chime in. “Was that a joke, Grae? You are quite witty when it comes to wordplay! I like the name too!” The Rotom immediately nodded and hopped back into the X-transceiver to speak, “Yes! That is a great name and I love it! I shall cherish it forever! Oh, also, would you mind if I stayed in the X-transceiver most of the time? I can talk through it and help you do what you need with it! Plus, it is quite cozy in here, much more so than a Pokeball!” Grae giggled at the energetic Watson’s request. “Of course! Although, only if you promise not to zap me again.” “Right right! I won’t do it again unless I need to get your attention quickly! Sorry about that again! I thought it was kind of funny though.” Well, now that we have that settled. I was thinking we could all try out that competition Carrie Sunita mentioned on the X-transceiver. It’ll be a good way for us to see all around the world and meet people along the way!” Everyone cheered in agreement and they started walking towards the next town.

Dana Griswold With her first Pokemon and adventure ahead, Dana smiled brightly as she carried her Tepig hugged to her chest. "Don't worry, Tonya. We will be the best. We need to be." She said, tone still warm but a touch of distance in it. The woman was determined to go the distance. She wouldn't fail. She couldn't fail. Tonya just gave a few soft grunts in response. "I know...I'm scared too. It's OK." She hugged her Tepig and the Pokemon let out a light squeal of surprise at the sudden tightness. She did not know what Dana was scared of, or why she kept pretending to know what was being said. But this hug made her want to protect the human. She would fight anything that tried to threaten Dana. This must be what a Trainer Bond felt like. It was more exhilarating than anything the Professor or other Pokemon had ever described. I love you, Dana. You're my best friend.Pack: Pokeball x, Potion x, Pokedex Plot Hooks: X Pokemon Encounter: 4/-- Trainer Battle: 4/25 Item Posting: Berry Pot 3/25 Badges: Pokemon: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Party Here}

Dana Griswold Dana finally let Tonya down after a long moment of silent holding. The anxiety seemed to melt away as soon as she released her Tepig. She wouldn't be weak. She took her first step forward, gaze fixed on the distant Accumula Town. She was moving forward now. Tonya wasn't sure what felt so important about this moment but she wouldn't doubt that Dana was deciding something. She squealed with delight as if she immediately understood the gravity of Dana's decision to become a Pokemon Trainer. They were moving forward with their adventure now. She could feel that much. And that thrilled the little Tepig to no end.Pack: Pokeball x, Potion x, Pokedex Plot Hooks: X Pokemon Encounter: 5/-- Trainer Battle: 5/25 Item Posting: Berry Pot 4/25 Badges: Pokemon: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Party Here}

Elfana Aroway Elfana met up with the rest of her team by the docks. They had already found a boat that could take them to Virbank. Pantalaimon had seemingly forgot about the damage he had taken from the Trapinch. He was too busy playing with the local wild Pokemon to care about something like a couple of bruises! If they hadn't already held up the boat by making them wait for her and Kiro, Elfana would have let Pantalaimon play for a while longer. She gave him a few minutes to say goodbye to his new friends before picking him up. "We should take Little One here someday! The Pokemon here are nice!" He missed his Pidgey friend. Being on yet another boat reminded him that they still needed to find a Water Type to join their best super hero team ever! Elfana nodded along, assuming Pantalaimon was going on about the Pokemon he had played with. He would be meeting even more new friends very soon.Unova

After leaving Professor Juniper’s Lab, Quinn immediately made a phone call to a former acquaintance, “I am following through with plan B. Are you still able to help with that?” “Of course. Anything for you, m’lady.” “Good. I will meet you at the docks as soon as I can. I have to inform my sister too.” “Okay, remember to be quick about your conversation and don’t mention specifics before we meet.” “Understood.” The X-transceiver clicked off and Quinn continued at her semi-hastened pace towards the docks of Nuvema Town. On her way, she called Kiria, “Kiria, we were right about our parents. I’ll be doing some traveling soon.” “Oh, so you are going there, aren’t you?” Kiria responded before sighing into the phone, “Do what you need to do, but stay in touch. I was hoping we wouldn’t have to be so far from each other, but I understand. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be okay.” “Thanks, Kiria. We’ll talk when I arrive,” Quinn said before hanging up. Cyan suddenly released himself from his Pokeball and looked up at Quinn with concern. “Don’t worry, Cyan. We have a plan to follow. Although, I would appreciate the extra security from you.” Cyan nodded in reassurance and followed alongside Quinn as they continued towards the docks.

As Quinn and Cyan walked in the direction of the docks, she made sure to be especially mindful of her surroundings. She checked for any especially shady characters. Thankfully, by the time they reached the docks, Quinn hadn’t noticed anyone particularly suspicious. Upon getting there, the two of them walked towards one of the many large ships there. This ship happened to be a passenger ship, but there were also cargo ships as well anchored at the docks. People were loading onto the ship and it appeared to be getting ready to head out, “Perfect timing,” Quinn thought. From the line, a figure dressed in a black suit and hat stepped out of line as Quinn approached. He made sure to not look up at Quinn the entire time he walked towards her, Quinn did not make eye contact either. Right before the two met, they turned and sat on a nearby bench. It was only once they sat down that they finally faced each other directly and spoke. “I assume you made it here without any difficulties, m’lady?” The gentleman asked. “Yes, it was surprisingly problem-free. And you? I hope I am finding you in good health, Charles. It would certainly displease me if anyone gave you any trouble.” “You need not worry about me, Madam Liberati. I can handle what comes my way.” “Of course. Did you bring the ticket?” “Yes, it is right here,” Charles said as he handed her a boarding ticket to the ship. “Thank you, Charles. You have always looked out for me… I hope both our trips to our destinations are safe ones.” Charles smiled at her, his clean-shaven, but older face revealing its wrinkles upon doing so. “Till we see each other again, Madam Liberati. If you need anything, just let me know. Oh, also, take these. They may help on your journey.” “I will, and thank you again,” Quinn replied before the two got up and hugged.

Quinn and Charles parted ways. Charles disappeared into the crowds on the docks while Quinn got in line to board the passenger ship. Many of the people also had companion Pokemon with them and appeared to be from many different parts of the world. As such, she didn’t seem too far out of place save for her taller than average height. Upon getting to the ticket checker at the base of the ramp to board the ship, Quinn handed the man her ticket who welcomed her aboard the S.S. Sinnovia. Quinn gave the man a slight smile before walking up the ramp and onto the ship. Once aboard the ship, there were more greeters who helped direct people to their rooms. The trip would take about a day, so most people had a room on the ship, save for a few who opted for cheaper travel. Quinn happened to have a room and once she showed her ticket to the women directing guests, was told exactly where her room would be. Before going to her room, Quinn thought it would be best to get some food. Despite not having left the harbor yet, the ship was already serving lunch which Quinn decided her and her Pokemon would indulge in. Quinn and Cyan went up to the dining hall where she had a server help her gather some food for her and her Pokemon. Once she found a place for them to sit, she released her Pokemon from their Pokeballs and they all began to eat. Quinn thought for a moment how thankful she was to be able to travel less noticed than her sister, who had many adoring fans. As she ate, however, this thought and peaceful moment was interrupted by a stranger who came up and asked Quinn a question. “Do you happen to be Ms. Quinn Liberati?” The younger girl asked timidly. Quinn stopped eating and turned towards the girl. She could tell that she was just starting her journey and was relatively young, perhaps around 12 years old. She was dressed modestly and hugged a notebook tightly to her chest, clearly shy and nervous about the conversation. Judging that she seemed to not have malicious intent, Quinn bgan to respond, “Yes, I am Quinn Liberati. And, who might I be speaking to?” “Ah! I can’t believe it! I wasn’t sure if it was really you at first! Er, I mean, my name is, uh, Maralyn Flor.” Quinn smiled to try to seem more friendly, “Such a pretty name. Why are you traveling on this ship, Maralyn?” “I’m going to start my journey as a trainer in the Sinnoh region!” She replied, regaining her courage. “It is a nice region to start a journey in. Now, Maralyn, I am curious. How did you know that I am Quinn Liberati?” “Oh? I thought everyone knew you, at least, everyone in my family does… I want to one day become a Pokemon researcher just like you! I look up to you. You are pretty and smart, everything a girl like me wants to be in the future.” “You flatter me, Maralyn. Pretty and smart will get you far in life, but what you really want to be in the future is free. Take that with you and let it lead you to wherever you want to go.” Maralyn seemed a bit confused as to what Quinn meant by this at first but then nodded as in agreement. “Thank you, Ms. Quinn Liberati. I will let you enjoy your meal with your Pokemon now. Thank you for your words of wisdom.” With that, Quinn waved goodbye to Maralyn and the young girl gave a shy wave back before running back to somewhere else in the vast dining hall. After dinner, Quinn and her Pokemon went to their room and slept for the evening, waiting until they arrived at their destination in Sinnoh.

"Poor George, they turn the light on and it’s burning up the sky" * Valentine Salazar Galea *
]The day hasn't progressed much when he was inside the lab, and it was still early. Well, as "early" late noon can be. Vale still had a lot of time in his disposal, and for now he walked into a more quieter and grassier part of the town, and let out his chosen Pokemon out of its ball. The little thing was mostly blue, with dark blue tail, a white head and on top of that had dark.. horns? Horn-like things, which didn't really fit to an otter creature, but alright. Also, it had a shell on his torso, and it looked oddly sharp. Somehow.
At least it was cuter than Froakie Fabian chose.
Oshawott rubbed its eyes with one paw, and then looked around for a moment before turning its gaze towards Valentine. The man himself looked at the creature, as if still trying to comprehend.. how the hell did that happen.
"Hey buddy." he got lower, just to be on more or less same level as Pokemon. "I'm Valentine, and I'm your new owner... trainer."
He reached his hand towards it, and, seeing no resistance, pat the thing on its head. Pokemon seemed content and perfectly fine with the contact, and rubbed its head against his hand too. It was really.. nice. As both feeling, and in touch too. It had fur there and here after all.
"Okay, now let's see.." Vale searched through his bag to get the PokeDex thing and turned it on. It looked like a phone, with the flashing screen and a touchpad-like thing on the bottom. But it was a bit more complicated than normal phone, even those from newest generations. He pointed it at Oshawott, who patiently sat down on the grass and looked at him with big eyes. Funny, cute little thing.
"Sea otter Pokemon, which fits. And you just carry the seashell like that, with no problem. Shell Armor ability, whatever that means. Tackle and Tail Whip. You are also a male, huh." man rubbed his chin, scrolling through the information PokeDex displayed and then looked back at the Pokemon. "I need to think of a good name for you.""Poor George, you can kill him, but you’ll never kill his pride"

"Poor George, they turn the light on and it’s burning up the sky" * Valentine Salazar Galea *
To be fair, Oshawott didn't need a name, but Vale wanted to give him one. He didn't want to keep calling it 'Pokemon' or 'Oshawott', back to back. But what name could be a good name? If he was unoriginal, he would go with 'Aqua' or 'Bluey'. Maybe even 'Wave'. Although 'Wavedrop' sounded okay, it was too long and he wasn't a fan of conjoined words acting as names. It looked good on paper, but not in practice. Vale sat down near his Pokemon, thinking, while Oshawott looked around their surroundings. He picked greener, near edge of the town, so they didn't had to deal with constant noise of the harbor or kids running around either from Pokemon Centrum or towards the lab. Eh, poor professor.
From serious thoughts broke him a noise coming from the bag, and he recognized it as his phone. He reached to it, to see a text message coming from Fabian. Valentine leaned on a nearby tree, to have it easier to read and type.
"hey, r you in unova yet??" was the first message, closely followed by "dads r worried"
"sorry, didnt had time. but met professor Juniper and got the pokemon tho" he chuckled as Oshawott scooted closer and looked at his phone, and then rubbed it under the chin. There was a short pause before next message arrived. "shit, for real??? sent a photo, we want to see it!!"
Vale rolled his eyes, but in a lighthearted manner. He already missed them, and even his dumbass of a twin brother. He fixed his posture to properly sit and turn on the camera.
"I will think of a name for you in a moment, but now, could you sit still for a photo?" he said and gently ushered Oshawott to get a proper posture. He tried to get a proper light and background, but he wasn't a good at taking photos. How are people doing so naturally and professionally, he didn't understand. His hands were never shaky, but it was different than.. well, operating on a body. Then he needed to be absolutely focused, and here no matter what he did, he couldn't get a not-blurry image. To make the matters worse, Oshawott suddenly moved and looked past Valentine at.. something.
"What-" he was given no time to ask or react, when his Pokemon suddenly got up and lunged at something behind him.
Valentine yelped in surprise, when he heard another sharp noise from behind, that sounded like other Pokemon. Oshawott tackled some brown furred creature to the ground, which then kicked him off and stepped back, with its own fur bristling and rat-like fangs bared. His own Pokemon looked no better, hissing and fluffing up to look bigger.
Is this how Pokemon battles look like normally?
"Shit. Uh." he knew he should, no he have to, give a command. "Tail Whip?"
Oshawott leaned on his all fours and raised his tail and wagged it, making it look almost like a tendril or maybe a snake appearing behind him. Brown Pokemon stepped back, and shot him a look full of malice, as an attempt to scare him. Probably. Then it began moving to its side, as if trying to circle them and attack from behind.
"Now Tackle!" Vale ordered, seeing his Pokemon got up and attempted on predict his opponents next move. Two Pokemons lunged at each other at the same time, but Oshawott managed to shove his opponent of himself and roll away from its claws and fangs. "And again, while its down!"
Otter wagged his tail once again, but without waiting lunged again and rolled with his opponent on the ground, and then pushed him hard onto a tree. It shook violently, and something fell from it. Brown rat shook his body, but was too exhausted to continue and only managed to flee into the bushes. Man and his partner waited for a while, until they didn't hear rustling anymore.
Vale sighed and turned his gaze towards Oshawott, who sat down again and began cleaning his fur, seemingly returning to his more.. calm and passive self. It earned a raised eyebrow from his trainer, who grew even more intrigued by this whole ordeal. During all this he nearly forgot about his phone and messages, but then he got another one. Valentine turned on the phone and looked at the new one.
"vale r you there???" he could tell that Fabian didn't expect that long pause. He took the moment when Oshawott sat calmly on the ground and took a quick photo of it.
"yeah sorry, something attacked us but here is a photo. fresh from the first battle" he send it with said photo attached to it.
What a day already.

"Poor George, they turn the light on and it’s burning up the sky" * Valentine Salazar Galea *
As he sent the message and waited for reply, Valentine rummaged through his bag looking for Potions. Oshawott was handling himself pretty well, but was still.. well, hurt after the battle. Juniper gave him a ridiculous amount of them, which was good.. at least he won't run out of them. He sprayed one on otter's bruises, coughing slightly at the smell of Pokemon medicine. He never liked the smell, let alone the.. taste.
Vale studied Pokemon medication too, obviously - he wasn't specialized in treating Pokemons, but it was in human nature to do crazy shit. Many times he had to analyze cases of people getting poisoned by drinking Super Potions or eating Revives for shit and giggles. On its own, Pokemon medicine wasn't actually harmful to humans, just tasted.. bad and its clear it wasn't made for human consumption. In bigger amounts, however, it usually leads to food poisoning, sometimes hallucinations and even damage of digestive system. But no matter how many times it was put on the bottle 'Pokemon Use Only', people will still.. try and drink it. The cases he read were usually about kids doing some dumb dares. There were some about drug addicts trying some 'brand new alternatives' that was just crushed Revive mixed with Revival Herb. Rarely, but also had happened, were cases of older people mistaking their own medicine and cough syrups with Potions for their Pokemon pets. It's rare, but.. stuff happens.
But anyways. Oshawott seemed now in much better shape, right in time with another message from Fabian.
"Heather said he is super cute" was the first message right after the photo, and then next one. "i think he looks a bit silly :P"
Vale let out an overdramatic sigh and replied back. "your's dumber" Fabian knew about his slight distaste to his Pokemon, so he wasn't expecting him to react badly.
"yeah whatever. btw you said something attacked you??"
"yeah. it was brown and looked like a rat. i didnt check it with pokedex, bc it ran away"
"thats a shame. kay, i have to go help dad in the shop, g luck!" that was last message he received, for now at least.
Valentine looked at his phone, feeling strangely nostalgic and put it back in his bag. He searched for Oshawott, who was sitting nearby but looked intently at something in the bushes. Man narrowed his eyes, and got up.
"What is it this time?" he asked, which made otter look up at him and point at something. He really hoped the brown Pokemon didn't come back for round two, but instead he spotted something shining under the leaves. Well, not really shinning, but it was standing out and the light was making it 'shine'. Curiously, he walked closer to mysterious object and to his surprise, it turned out to be a PokeBall. A bit worn out, with several scratch and bite marks on it, but.. a PokeBall. Despite having them plenty and more, Vale picked it up and brought back. Oshawott raised its head, as an attempt of looking at it or even sniffing. He wondered if the Pokemon could tell if it was used or not by sniffing it. Well, Valentine let him do that, but Oshawott then wrinkled his nose in disgust. Probably due to bite marks, and some seemed fresh too.
Man shook the item, but it did absolutely nothing. Then he clicked the thing in the middle, that he used to let Oshawott out.. and he was expecting it to not work too, but instead it flashed a red light and before them a Pokemon appeared.
It was blue and fully covered in very messy and dirty fur. It looked more like a ball of fur, with two bat wings attached to it, a big nose and one teeth sticking out of its mouth. Mysterious Pokemon made a surprised, but startled noise and covered itself with its wings. Oshawott fluffed up a bit, but for most part remained on his place and only watched the other one cautiously. Vale in the mean time.. took out the PokeDex and attempted on scanning that thing.
"Woobat. It sure is a bat." he nodded as he put the device back to bag. "But why was it in the PokeBall if it's abandoned?"
He realized that he was talking.. to two Pokemons and they can't talk back, but alas Woobat whimpered as a 'reply'. It didn't look hurt, more neglected for a long time. Vale wasn't good with the 'empathy' stuff, but it did made his heart clench, which surprised him a bit. It wasn't his Pokemon, but it was still a living creature that someone treated horribly and just left.
Valentine crouched in front of the Pokemon, who seemingly felt his close presence and shrank back, obviously in fear.
"Hey, it's okay. We won't hurt you. I didn't know you were inside." he said as calmly and soothing as possible, leaning just a little bit closer to the scared thing. It moved its wings aside a bit, as if trying to open itself and listen. "Look, I have no snacks with me, but I can get you to Pokemon Center and find help, alright?"
Oshawott seemed to relax too, and look at Woobat with something akin to sympathy. Bat Pokemon seemed a bit puzzled, maybe even distrustful, but eventually took its wings aside and nodded weakly. Thinking it's not a good idea to shove it back to the piss poor PokeBall, Valentine carefully lifted the Pokemon and hold it firmly in his arms. It wasn't horribly heavy, but it felt weird to hold a Pokemon that's just a ball of fur. Oshawott then gave him the PokeBall too, since.. well, Woobat wasn't technically his and PokeBall was needed for Center healing.
Thankfully he knew where the Pokemon Center is in Nuvema, so that shouldn't take too long.
"Poor George, you can kill him, but you’ll never kill his pride"

"Poor George, they turn the light on and it’s burning up the sky" * Valentine Salazar Galea *
As expected, the Pokemon Center wasn't too hard to find. Thankfully, because carrying a Pokemon wasn't as easy, due to its weight and poor health. Oshawott followed him closely, as he forgot to put him back in the PokeBall - but thankfully Nuvema wasn't as busy for them to get separated. Pokemon Center didn't look as big up close from the outside, but inside there was plenty of room for multiple people and Pokemons. At the end of the main hall, stood a nurse and a pink Pokemon behind a desk. That must be an Audino, the healing Pokemon Unova used. Behind it was also a computer and a machine that is used to heal Pokemons at instant. It wasn't suitable for more advanced and serious wounds however.
The hall was mostly empty, so only nurse actually paid attention to him.
"Welcome to the Pokemon Center. What can we do for you?" she asked, like nurses usually do, and then nodded at her Pokemon. It walked around the desk and then towards them, as if wanting to get Woobat off his arms. He wouldn't mind, really, but bat bristled and stiffened when pink assistant reached towards it.
"It's not my Pokemon, I just found it in a lost PokeBall." Vale tried to explain, as he walked closer to the counter and nudged Woobat towards the nurse. She gave him a surprised and a bit weird look, but let him lay the bat on right place. "I don't see any external damage, but it looks like someone left it alone a while ago."
"I see.. may I ask for its PokeBall?" as nurse asked, he reached to his bag for the rather bad quality ball. Woman narrowed her eyes as she noticed the damage, but beckoned at her assistant. "Audino, could you?"
Pink Pokemon nodded and carefully put its paw on Woobat's forehead and it flashed slightly with some pink energy. A Healing Pulse. Woobat's body relaxed and it let out a relieved noise, and now nurse could put it back into the PokeBall with no problem or opposing. Then woman put it on the right spot in the machine, and clicked something on the computer, for it to start working.
"It won't take too long. But I need to ask, where did you found it?" she then turned towards Valentine, not with suspicion but more curiosity.
"On the edge of the town. There was a lot of bushes and trees, and it seemed to fell of something." he explained, looking down at Oshawott, who was sitting patiently near his legs. Well, he was healed and didn't need more assistance than that, thankfully. "My Oshawott fought some brown Pokemon and after that, we found the ball."
"Brown Pokemon? If it had big cheeks, red and orange eyes and long tail, then that was a Patrat." nurse said, rubbing her chin in thought. "It's not uncommon for them to take seemingly lost human items. And there is plenty of them in this Nuvema and Accumula. It could had stole it from some trainer."
Vale narrowed his eyes slightly. As much it made sense, it still didn't sit right with him. Woobat seemed too neglected to be just 'stolen'.
"Since the PokeBall still works, it should be registered somewhere in the database." he said, leaning on the counter. "If it was found there, Woobat's trainer probably visited this Center at some point and most likely healed too. This should be saved there in archives."
Woman raised her brow skeptically, waiting a moment before replying. "You.. seem to know a lot about it. "
"Human medical studies and Pokemon one overlap a lot, so I know this and that about the system." Vale said with a smile, earning slightly more surprised look from the nurse.
"That's a new one." she blinked and then started typing something on the computer. "We mostly have trainer visitors and local kids, not medicine students."
"I'm taking a break between years, that's all." Valentine shrugged. He wasn't technically lying, but he had a feeling this whole escapade will take him longer than a year."Poor George, you can kill him, but you’ll never kill his pride"

"Poor George, they turn the light on and it’s burning up the sky" * Valentine Salazar Galea *
While nurse was searching the archives, the healing machine made a noise, indicating that it had finished. A monitor next to the one woman was operating and was turned towards him showed Woobat's more in-depth statistics - it was mostly left without food and water for quite long time, and it's unclean fur was close to develop rash. He realized that most damage was dealt to its psyche and not body, given how distressed the thing was. But for now he hold his tongue back and waited for nurse to finish searching.
"Alright, I found her OT. His name was Olivier Hyde, and he visited us roughly month ago, before sailing to a different region. I don't know what happened between them, but he did seemed annoyed and complained about his Pokemon 'losing another important fight' when he came to heal and reserve a room." she explained, without showing him the exact file or the photo of said trainer. Well, rules this and rules that. He understood, but it made him a bit annoyed.
"I see now. But what now with Woobat? I know she will recover, but is she going to be released?" he asked, glancing over to the PokeBall. It was badly damaged by time and wild Pokemons, so.. sooner or later it will break anyways.
"Oh, no no no. In this case, she will be placed in our Adoption Center. Her ball is already on the bring of falling apart, so it will be easy to transfer her to a new one and recapture." she then beckoned at Audino, who took the PokeBall and after putting it on the medical tray, took it into the more specialized part of the Center.
Valentine watched the Pokemon go, thinking intently. He didn't want Woobat to end up in another bad hands, and he also wanted to find her trainer and had a 'word' with him. He didn't like people who treated Pokemons like shit, that's for sure. But would he be a better trainer for her?
"I would like to adopt her." he said after a moment. He heard Oshawott shuffle beneath him and rub against his leg.
"Oh? Well, that would be great." nurse smiled warmly, and then looked behind her, at the door to the other area. "We still need to run few tests, clean, feed and then let her rest properly, but that shouldn't take longer than two hours. After that, I will transfer her ownership."
Two hours sounded like a long time, but he could deal with it. It was still a bright day, and he didn't want to pass the opportunity. Well, obviously he expected his first day to be a bit different, but hey. Fate works in mysterious ways. So he thanked her and promised to come back around the designated time, and left the building with Oshawott.
They spent said time mostly roaming aimlessly around Nuvema, even reaching the harbor where Oshawott was watching passing ships with awe in his eyes. Valentine in the same time was watching him and making sure he won't get lost or just jump into the water. After a while, some harbor worker urged them to leave, after otter attempted on cutting a net with his shell. Well, it was full of fish, so that was probably why and Vale found that hilarious - harbor worker didn't and so they had to leave hastily. As they left, man was struck by an idea.
"Caspian." he said as he patted Oshawott on the head. "I think that's a good name for you."
After a while, they turned back to the Center and were welcomed by Audino. Pink Pokemon waved at them, and beckoned to follow her to the other room. In here, they found the nurse and Woobat in better state - her fur neatly trimmed and groomed, along with half-eaten bowl of food and water. She ate some medicine and must had sensed them coming, because then turned towards the door and made a happy sounding noise.
"Just in time. She is much better now, and ready to go." nurse told him, while holding her ruined PokeBall. She rubbed it against Woobat, putting the Pokemon back in it. "Are you taking her?"
"Yes, of course." he replied, looking into his bag for a free PokeBall and handed it to the woman. She took it, and walked towards some weird looking machine, where she then put both balls on the opposite ends and clicked a button. The monitor flashed and showed a process of transferring the Pokemon to the new ball, and when it was over, nurse took the empty now PokeBall and put it in a special container.
"Here. She might be a bit confused from the process, but will surely feel better in a new one." woman handed him the PokeBall as she explained.
"Thanks you." Valentine nodded and gave her a slight smile. Well, he was being genuine. He wasn't going to leave without expressing his gratitude, after all.
And with that out of the way, he left the Center with Caspian and new Pokemon friend."Poor George, you can kill him, but you’ll never kill his pride"

"Poor George, they turn the light on and it’s burning up the sky" * Valentine Salazar Galea *
As they left the Pokemon Center, Valentine realized that he is actually hungry. Neither Oshawott and Woobat were, probably, since otter was fresh from Juniper's lab, while bat just got a big portion of food and medicine in the Center. But he hadn't eaten since early morning. And it was getting a bit past dinner time, which was still doable. He found a fine map of Nuvema, where he could check if there is any place of interest, and actually he found one buffet nearby. Well, didn't hurt to try. Seeing the 'No Pokemons' sign was already questionable, but hearing his stomach rumble and not wanting to move any further, he obliged and hid Caspian in his PokeBall. Woobat was already in it and probably resting, and he realized that he still had to think of a name for her. Maybe during the dinner he will think of something.
He ordered some fries and a burger, which wasn't the worst but far from best. Maybe he just missed Heather's cooking and it clouded his judgment. But it filled his stomach, so he bit down complains and paid for it.
After that, Valentine left the buffet and let Caspian and Woobat out. Otter rubbed its head as if cleaning it, while bat fluffed herself and shook her body. She turned her head around and then chirped, sensing her trainer. He should take a photo of her and send to Fabian too, he realized.
"I think it's best to move to another town now. It might take a while, and I want to get a room in next Pokemon Center before night." he told them, looking from one Pokemon to another, and then draw his phone out. "But now, I need to take a photo of you for my brother. Could you sit still for a moment?"
Woobat must had understand it was directed at her, because she hesitantly nodded. She looked unsure and he didn't want to make her uncomfortable, but he knew that sooner or later Fabian will bug him for new photos.
"Just one and it's over. It's for my family, okay?" Valentine patted her gently, earning a timid chirp that he took as a 'yes'. Not wanting to waste time and drag the moment, he opened the right app and took as-good-as-possible photo of Woobat. And send it right away with a message.
"just got a new one. she's a bit shy, but her ex-trainer threw her away so :/" knowing that Fabian might be still busy in the shop, he put the phone back to the bag. "That should be enough for today. And hey, would you mind a name? Oshawott already got one, and I think Ophelia would fit you."
Woobat put one of her wings near her mouth, as if indicating that she is thinking about it, and then nodded in agreement.
Without more waiting, the three moved towards the Nuvema exit-gate and began their travel towards the next town.
"Poor George, you can kill him, but you’ll never kill his pride"

Ella-Mae Baxton
Exiting the lab led Ella and her newly received Starter Pokemon, Oshawott, into the outdoors, eager to take her first steps on her journey. Nuvema was quite the sweet little town, but there wasn’t really much left for Ella there, so it was about time she and Oshawott headed out to greener pastures. Accumula Town was their next destination, and it just so happened to be the ten year old’s hometown. While this was only day one of her journey, Ella thought it would only be fair to stop by her house and at least introduced Oshawott to her family before heading farther into Unova.
“Accumula has some of the nicest music plays,” Ella explained to Oshawott, who was still in the young girl’s arms after leaving the lab. She’d been on a tangent about how she couldn’t wait for her family to meet Oshawott, and how cute they were gonna think she was. “I’m sure you’re just gonna love it there, Oshawott. Aren’t you excited?”
The little otter in her arms had been quiet for a while, but it wasn’t until this very moment that Ella had truly noticed. Ella turned the otter around to take a look at the Water Type’s face, but there was something… a bit glum about it all of a sudden. “Majurrr…” The little pup whined a little, staring at nothing in particular sadly.
Ella’s expression became a concerned frown as she stroked the Oshawott’s head with her hand. “Hey,” She said with a bit of concern. “What’s the matter? I thought you were really excited.” Oshawott looked at her Trainer’s face and tilted her head a little. It didn’t seem as though the Water Type had even heard what the girl was saying at all up until that point. Oshawott looked back at Nuvema town almost longingly, causing the young girl to become a bit confused. “...Do… do you not wanna go on a journey?”
Upon hearing that, the otter flinched a little before looking the girl right in the face. The young human wasn’t totally certain if the Pokemon could understand what she was saying, but then a thought started to cross her mind when the pup let out a bit of a sigh.
“I know what’s happening,” Ella said confidently. “I remember dad saying Arcanine did this when he first met him as a Growlithe puppy.” Ella took the moment to sit down and sat Oshawott down in front of her as the young pup blinked at her curiously. “I was on a camping trip one time with me, my dad, and some friends. One of my friends got really home sick and had to go home, and… well, I don’t remember why, but I asked him if Pokemon ever got home sick.
“That’s when he told me a story,” she continued. “About how he met Arcanine. He adopted a little Growlithe puppy from a Pokemon breeder, and Growlith instantly took to him. However, when they were leaving, Growlithe was quite sad for a few hours because he missed all of his brothers and sisters.” Ella placed a hand on the round head of her Pokemon. “You’re getting homesick already, aren’t you?”
“...Maju…” The little otter sighed in response, but this brought a smile to her Trainer’s face as she picked her new friend up.
“Don’t worry, Oshawott,” Ella tried to assure. “You’re a part of my family now, and this is your forever family.” The young girl dug through her pocket and fished out a red and white Pokeball, showing it to Oshawott. The reflection of the otter's face looked back at the otter as she sniffed at her Pokeball again and held it in her short arms. Ella would let her hold onto that for now if that made her feel better. “And this is your forever family,” the human continued. “So just like the Professor said, we’re gonna be together for a long time. That Pokeball makes sure of that. And in any case, we'll be sure to visit Professor Juniper again, and maybe some of your friends will still be there. Who knows!”
The young girl wasn’t sure if the Oshawott really understood what she was saying, but a shy grin on the pup’s face told her that the pup was feeling at least a little better about the whole situation. The little otter squirmed a little before jumping out of her Trainer’s arms, her own Pokeball still in hand, and started walking in the direction Ella had been walking with the young girl walking in after her. “Marrrru..?” The otter purred a bit softly as she was sniffing the air before coming across a little pebble.
The pup kicked the little stone before smiling and letting out a little giggle as she chased after it. Ella smiled at her new friend as they continued moving forward, unaware of the things that may have lurked in the foliage. High in the trees, hiding in the tall grass, and some even scurrying out onto the dirt path were all small Pokemon dashing around. However, one in particular Pokemon hiding in the bushes managed to evade the young duo's eye as it observed them curiously.
If one were to look at it the right way, they may even notice a bit of a cheeky smile looking at them.

Ella-Mae Baxton After walking for a couple of minutes, Ella and Oshawott started getting into a steady pace. The little otter wasn’t quite over her gloominess, but considering the fact it hadn’t been very long since the two left the lab, it was understandable why the pup was still feeling quite uneasy. The two clearly still had a long way to go as far as their growing trust was concerned, but they were taking each step bit by bit which was as much as anyone could really expect from these new travelers.
Ella, however, was the one to stop the pace, and while the pup walking ahead of her didn’t notice it right away, she did take notice of her new friend letting out an exasperated sigh and slumping into a sitting position, a pout clear on her face. “I’ve been walking forever…” she whined, placing her chin in her hand as Oshawott turned around with a slight tilt of her head as she trotted back over to her Trainer and sniffed at her before smiling.
At the very least, Oshawott seemed to start associating her scent with something pleasant.
Ella’s expression softened a little, but her frown persisted as she started petting her Pokemon. Oshawott seemed to be quite adaptable, to an extent. While she didn’t like drastic change very much, it also didn’t seem to bother her when plans changed or when setbacks came along. Oshawott was clearly here to have fun, and if they had to take a break, she was still gonna play and take a break. That rock would be there when they started walking again.
Ella started wagging her fingers around and watching the little Pokemon try to grab the tips of them with her tiny paws before coming to a realization at that very moment. “You know something?” She questioned, not really expecting the Oshawott to pay her musing any mind as she was simply too engrossed in trying to catch the girl’s fingers. “I was thinking so hard about which Pokemon I wanted to pick as my first that I didn’t think of any names I might want for one.” Oshawott finally got a hold of Ella’s index finger before being rewarded with the girl scratching the little otter under the chin. The Water Type’s tail started patting on the ground as Oshawott let out a gentle little purr in response. “...Would you like to have a name, Oshawott?”
The otter let out a bit of a hum after the petting was done before finally giving her Trainer some of her attention… to which she simply tilted her head again. “Maju?”
Ella couldn’t help but giggle a little. “A name, you know. Like, one that helps you stand out from other Oshawott.” The little pup tilted her head at the word Oshawott, instantly recognizing it as something pertaining to her. If Oshawott could understand any English, it was clear she was too young to understand much. That, clearly, didn’t make her any less adorable in Ella’s book.
Quite frankly, she was the cutest Pokemon on the planet at this very moment as far as Ella-Mae was concerned.
“I don’t think I ever told you my name, did I?” Oshawott tilted her head a little at the human’s point. The otter didn’t have any way to distinguish this human from any other outside of scent, which may turn out to be the best way for her to ever tell between one human from the other, but Ella still felt like Oshawott deserved to at least be aware of who her Trainer was. Ella held her hand out at the otter and grinned at the little pup sweetly. “My name is Ella-Mae. You can call me Ella or May, if you want.”
The otter once again tilted her head, causing the girl to sigh a little, almost retracting her hand. “Perhaps that’s a bit too complicated?” The girl pointed out. “You can just call me Ella if you want.”
“Mi… Meh… Mi…” The little Pokemon let out a huff as she shuffled around as she tried to get a hold of her little sounds. “Meh… Ma… May… Mimemayma-!”
“Stop, stop, stop!” The girl waved her arms around, startling the little pup a little before the young girl let out a sigh. “You don’t understand human talk very well, do you?” The little pup’s tilting head was all she needed to know. Oshawott was trying her best, but if she could understand anything the girl was saying it wasn’t much. Were all Starters available this young when they started being options for their potential Trainers, or did Professor Juniper simply think this one was ready early?
Perhaps Oshawott was so willing to stop because she needed time to catch up a little. The fact that the otter seemed to have the wherewithal to at least try and understand despite how young she was was quite telling. If anything, this made the young girl even more certain that Oshawott was the correct choice now more than ever.
After all, they both needed to take their time, right?
It was at that moment that the young pup perked up a little before looking over her shoulder, looking over at a bush. Something had started moving there, and her big brown nose instantly started twitching in response. “...Miju?” The otter questioned, but before she could even make a motion toward the sounds coming from the bush, a Pokemon leapt out of the foliage to reveal… another Oshawott?
“Miju May!” The other Oshawott spoke more confidently with its paws on his hips, tapping the shell on its stomach to make it twitch.
While Ella’s Oshawott was visibly happy to see one of her own in the wild, her Trainer was… well, she was quite a bit confused. While it was quite common to see Trainers with new Oshawott, along with Tepig or Snivy, there hadn’t been any for a while. So seeing one in the middle of a dirt path was a little strange right now. On top of that, there didn’t seem to be anyone else around. Where was this Oshawott’s Trainer? “Hey, little guy,” Ella tried to call it over gently. “Where’s your Trainer?”
Before the girl even finished her thought, the Oshawott threw its Scalchop past the girl’s head in a random direction, causing both the girl and her Oshawott to twitch in surprise, causing Ella’s otter to drop her own shell on the ground. This seemed to please the “wild” Oshawott. It formed a cheeky little grin as it giggled before bouncing back into the bushes. “Mijujujujuju~!”
“Wait! Oshawott!” But it was too late, and the other otter had vanished into the bushes, much to Ella’s Oshawott’s disappointment. The little girl looked over to the small otter and tilted her head a little bit. “Did you know that Oshawott?” The girl’s only response was another tilt of the head, causing the girl to laugh a little. “We’ll… work on this whole language barrier thing.”
However, something else started shuffling in the grass, and it was moving fast. Everything that other Oshawott was doing happened so fast, Ella hadn’t even processed what was happening until it was too late. That other Oshawott didn’t actually throw its shell haphazardly… it hit something.
That something was a Pokemon…

Ella-Mae Baxton It wasn’t long before the girl heard the sound of what seemed to be growling coming from the tall grass, as one irritated looking canine Pokemon. One of the two Ella happened to see upon coming to Nuvema: Lillipup. The little pup seemed quite young himself, but at the same time there was something a bit untamed about him, too.
Well, that might’ve been obvious because he was a wild Pokemon, but he certainly didn’t seem child-like, like Oshawott was.
“It’s a Lillipup,” Ella noted before allowing a grin to form on her face. Part of the journey was getting to encounter and catch various types of Pokemon, and while Lillipup was certainly a common sight in these parts of Unova, Lillipup did seem like a safe and dependable choice for a first capture for Ella specifically. “This is perfect! If I catch it, we’ll probably be a lot better off later on.” Ella looked over at Oshawott and pointed at the puppy. “Oshawott, go get it!”
Oshawott looked at the girl’s hand, sniffed at it, and then looked over at the growling Pokemon the human was pointing at. However, before the otter could even get a good look at the puppy, Lillipup had already started running at the Oshawott before faking out a Tackle and getting a hold of the otter’s Scalchop. Oshawott was sent spinning by the speed of the attack, and ended up landing on her bum before shaking her head a little. When she blinked her eyes opened to see her Scalchop in the mouth of the puppy…
…Let’s just say any patience or shred of mercy she may have had instantly went out the window.
“Miju may! Urrrr…” The otter growled at the puppy, but even at her most motivated and fierce, the otter pup didn’t seem like she was all that capable of hurting a fly. While the Lillipup was keeping his eyes peeled, the intelligent canine was very much aware of this, and flashed the otter a smirk. The puppy wagged his tail as he anxiously awaited the otter’s response, and while Oshawott was quite upset by the fact that Lillipup had her shell, the Water Type was still quite reluctant to really do anything about it.
The girl hardly noticed that the conflicted otter was shaking a little when she started her command. “Alright, Oshawott,” The girl said, with a bit of nervous concentration before hesitating a little in an attempt to gather her thoughts. Lillipup grinned. Boy, was this going to be fun. “Um… Oh yeah! Use a Tackle!” Once the girl finally managed to gather her thoughts, Ella pointed at the puppy, though Oshawott’s response wasn’t immediate.
The otter recognized something the girl had said, though, as an idea seemed to flash in the otter’s eyes a bit. The little pup started running at the puppy who, while taking note that the Oshawott was still rather clumsy, was taken quite aback by how fast the young Pokemon was. The puppy was so bewildered, Oshawott’s first Tackle hit the intended target with no issue, causing the puppy Pokemon to roll backward a bit with a yelp, dropping the Scalchop. This instantly satiated Oshawott’s anger as she quickly picked up the shell between her two tiny paws and carefully placed it back onto her stomach.
However, as she turned back to face the Puppy Pokemon, he had already gotten himself back onto his feet and quickly launched a Tackle of his own at the Sea Otter Pokemon, causing her to fumble into a sitting position, letting out a yelp of her own. “Oshawott!” Ella called out in a bit of concern as the little otter shook her head a little before looking up at the panting and smirking puppy. Even while the battle was still going, there was only one thing currently on the otter’s mind, and with the stinging pain from the Tackle as a reminder, it was hardly something the little Oshawott could ignore.
“M-m… Miju?” The little otter whimpered a little as tears started welling up in her eyes before the little otter let out a full on scream as tears started rolling down her face, overcome by the hurt feelings that someone would have hurt her like that. The display caused both the human and the puppy to be taken aback a little, but luckily for the girl, she managed to get herself together first.
“H-hey, Oshawott,” Ella said loud enough to get through the siren levels of the loud crying of the otter. “We’re still fighting! Hey, are you even listening to me?” The girl’s words were being ignored at first, causing the girl to feel a little bad for it, when she heard the puppy shift his paws a little bit. When the girl looked up, she felt herself grimace a little. It looked like it was getting ready to use another Tackle! Ella wasn’t sure if Oshawott could handle another attack like that. She needed to get the otter to focus. “Oshawott, listen!” the girl shouted, finally causing the otter to snap out of it before looking at her Trainer again. “That Lillipup is fast and strong, but you’re even faster and stronger! Use Tackle attack, again!”
“Mi…” The little otter looked over at the puppy before glaring at it and pushing herself into a standing position, and running at the puppy again, landing another Tackle on the pup before Lillipup could even start his own. “Mijurrrr!” The pup yelled before Lillipup landed on his side, completely worn down by that last Tackle.
Now it was Ella’s turn.
The little girl took out a red and white spherical device and held it out in front of her. “Alright Lillipup,” the young girl said carefully. “Consider yourself caught!” And with that, the girl threw the ball at the puppy, causing it to land, and quickly absorb the small pup in the form of a strange light before completely consuming it and shutting as it landed on the ground and started twitching.
Now the waiting game began…

Ella-Mae Baxton The girl waited with baited breath as the Pokeball continued to twitch around for several seconds, though it felt more like painstaking minutes. Had she done all she could? Did she overdo it? Was that how she was supposed to throw the ball? Oh, she was told it was probably better to not make it faint before trying to catch it! This wasn’t gonna work she just knew it-!
And the ten year old only snapped out of her thoughts when she heard that click from the Pokeball, and looked down to see that the ball wasn’t moving anymore. The young girl glanced down at the ball before slowly making her way to the ball, kneeling down, and picking the ball up while examining it a little bit. Well… she wasn’t quite sure what she was expecting. Her friends had all told her that catching Pokemon was a lot tougher than that, but it had only taken one Pokeball for her to do the job in this case.
Oshawott, on the other hand, seemed quite confused by what just transpired. The little otter crawled on all fours over to where Lillipup had been before sniffing at the very spot he had been standing before he suddenly vanished. Ella smiled over to the little otter, but before she could show the ball to her, the young girl heard something move around in more of the foliage before turning her head toward the commotion. From the bush rolled out… quite the unusual Pokemon!
Not unusual for Unova, but you certainly didn’t see any Emolga in Nuvema Town.
This fact was disregarded, however, as Ella formed the happiest of smiles Oshawott had ever seen in her rather short life. “It’s… It’s an Emolga!” The girl exclaimed, getting a hold of Oshawott and holding it close to her. “Aw! It’s even cuter in person! I’ve never seen one in the wild before, Oshawott, but that type of Pokemon is used by Elesa all the time. They’re so cute, and I’ve always wanted one, and I just gotta catch it, okay? I just gotta!” She just had to stop herself because if she didn’t the Emolga would be gone before she could even try to catch it.
The girl placed the Oshawott to the side before slowly approaching the little electric squirrel, who had already started buzzing around itself as the girl approached, causing the ten year old to flinch a little. Upon getting a better look at the girl, though, and sniffing at her a little, the Emolga straightened up a little and tilted its head a little. “Emon?”
The girl’s resolve seemed to steel at the simple look the Pokemon was giving her as she slowly took a red and white Pokeball out of her pocket, giving the little squirrel a cheeky smile. “Don’t run away, Emolga,” the ten year old whispered as she raised the Pokeball over her head. “I just wanna be friends…” The little squirrel squinted at the new trainer shuffling backward as the girl stood perfectly still. The girl and squirrel were having a stand down. Neither of them broke eye contact, the Emolga to try and get a read on what the girl was gonna do, and the girl to ensure the Emolga wouldn’t take off.
Oshawott looked on curiously, wondering what was gonna happen. The little otter stared at the squirrel, intimidated by the electricity that was dancing around it, immediately prompting the little one to run behind the girl’s leg to hide, but she was still quite curious to see how this would play out. Inevitably, one of them had to break the trans that they were in.
Ella simply couldn’t handle the anticipation before clicking the button on the ball and tossing it at the Emolga as precisely as she possibly could. “Emolga! Consider yourself caught!” The teen shouted, as the ball drilled in the air in Emolga’s direction and full speed. The Emolga seemed to just stare at the spherical object before effortlessly deflecting the ball with its jagged shaped tail, causing it to fall to the ground near the Emolga having done nothing. In an instant the girl felt her heart fall to the pit of her stomach, anticipating the squirrel flying away.
However, that isn’t what the Emolga did.
That’s to say, it tried. The little Emolga backed up a little and started running forward on all fours, and attempted to leap into the air to catch even the slightest of breezes to catch flight… turned out that breeze wasn’t enough, and the squirrel started rolling head over heels down toward the ground. “Emomomomon!” The little squirrel waved her arms around to get some kind of balance, but this just seemed to make her fall faster.
In an attempt to get out of the squirrel’s way, lest they get caught in the crash, Oshawott made the mistake of running in the opposite direction of her Trainer. Emolga accidentally flew into Oshawott’s side, causing both Pokemon to start rolling down the hill. “Miju..!” Emolga continued her head over heel trajectory, and Oshawott started pinwheeling, though the Water Type’s descent didn’t last as long as the Flying-Type’s as she slid to a stop on her stomach. The little otter pushed herself into a sitting position, and started rubbing the side of her head with a moan. “Mayju…” The little otter shook the dizziness out of her head, and just when she started to whimper from the pain, she seemed to get distracted by something else. “Miju!”
Ella ran over toward Oshawott and knelt down by the whining otter, placing a gentle hand on the pup’s little round head. “Oshawott, are you okay?” she asked, though it didn’t take long for her attention to turn to something else. The otter seemed to be distracted enough by something not to start crying in pain, so her Trainer followed the Pokemon’s gaze toward an object in front the side of a short hill. Lying on its back was that same Emolga the girl had tried to catch just prior to this chaos. The squirrel was lying in an awkward position on the ground, tiny feet and tail twitching in pain. “Emolga!” Ella called out, running toward the flying squirrel alongside the Water-Type.
Oshawott reached out at the Electric-Type, though rather cautiously, and poked at the Emolga’s head. Though the Emolga continued to twitch, it was clear it was out cold, prompting both Oshawott and Trainer to sigh. “Miju…”
Ella rubbed the side of her head before bending down and scooping up the Oshawott. While it would’ve been all too easy to catch Emolga, the sudden crash made the girl feel sorry for the little squirrel. It still gave her time to think things through a bit: how did an Emolga even get out here? Did it already have a Trainer of some kind? Maybe that was why it didn’t want to get caught? Whatever the case, with the injuries Oshawott, and especially Lillipup, had already received, it was about time she focused on making a straight line for Accumula Town.
Getting her Pokemon to a Pokemon Center was important, but she couldn’t bring herself to leave Emolga lying on the dirt either. Irrespective of the fact that there was probably a loving Trainer looking for it right this very moment, Emolga was clearly in a state where it couldn’t defend itself very well, so leaving it here would not only be cruel, it might end up getting the poor thing killed. Or at the very least, it could get into worse shape than it already was.
The girl proceeded to pick the Emolga up as well, making her way toward Nuvema’s neighboring town, which also just so happened to be Ella’s hometown: Accumula City. She knew that Pokemon Center best, so it only made sense that would be the first place she and her Pokemon… and possibly wild, possibly already owned Emolga, to rest at.
As the girl made her way toward her hometown, another Oshawott was peering at the group from behind a tree before forming a rather cheeky grin and letting out a quiet but equally impish laugh.

 | Velvet made her farewells and thank-yous at the lab, and she and her new Pokemon, safely tucked away in her ball, exited the laboratory, ready to get started on their great adventure. Or, at least go pick up some lunch? Velvet's stomach rumbled, reminding her that she'd skipped breakfast in her haste and travel anxiety. She held the shiny new Poke Ball in her hand, grinning at her own reflection in the surface and knowing her new partner was inside, safe and sound until she needed to release her.
Wandering forth, Velvet found that the seafood restaurant she'd been thinking about visiting was closed for the afternoon. Her belly growled in disappointment. Nearby, she could smell fresh baked bread, and decided to follow her nose to its source. Soon Velvet discovered a lovely little hole in the wall deli, with simple but delicious desserts in the front window to lure in customers like herself. She entered the building, the door ringing out a welcome as she approached the menu to take a look and see what she'd like. A surprisingly wide variety of soups, salads, sandwiches, and sweets covered the menu in a fine script. Velvet chose her meal, a cup sized portion of soup and a half roast beef and swiss sandwich, then thought that perhaps her new Pokemon might want a meal too.
"May I let my Pokemon out in here? She's very small, I promise she won't be troublesome." The woman at the counter nodded her assent, noting that new trainers often came through here with their new partners. Satisfied she wouldn't get kicked out, Velvet released her brand new Oshawott and explained some of the menu to her. The little otter chose a bowl of lobster bisque, to nobody's complete surprise. The pair got their trays, Velvet carrying Oshawott's soup for her since she was so little, and they sat down near the back.

"So," Velvet began between bites; she was really quite hungry and the food was fantastic, with each sandwich being made with fresh ingredients on a freshly-baked roll of bread, "You're a Water-type Pokemon, right?"
Oshawott nodded in agreement. "Oshawasha!" She dove into her soup, heartily slurping down creamy broth and chunks of veggies and savoring the occasional bit of potato or lobster.
"Okay.. I'll have to memorize some type matchups, I think. If we're going to battle, anyway. You.. do want to battle?"
"Oshaa! Oshawott!!" Oshawott's mouth, face, and side of the table was covered in scattered drops of soup. She seemed to be enthusiastically agreeing that yes, indeed, she'd like to battle.
Velvet finished her sandwich, and with a spoon in one hand, pulled out her Pokedex to consult it about her new Pokemon. There were all kinds of neat features, such as the ability to see what kinds of moves would be effective against a certain species of Pokemon vs what moves would have little to no effect. She found herself drawn in to reading, barely realizing when her Oshawott finished her soup, licked the bowl and table.. not clean, per se, but less soup-y, and, clearly getting bored, got up from the table to wander around. The new trainer had just realized how long she'd been reading when she spotted her Pokemon stuffing herself with some cake from the display window! | |

| Holding a very self-satisfied chocolate covered Oshawott under one arm, Velvet paid the nice lady at the counter for the.. entire four layer cake that her Pokemon had just demolished. The Pokemon looked to have no regrets, just a full, round belly and lots of frosting and crumbs all over her body. Velvet briefly froze after stepping out of the bakery, realizing that there was no way that the chocolate from the cake her Pokemon just ate wasn't getting all over her nice dress right now as she carried her. She turned her eyes to the sky, took a deep breath in through the nose and out through the mouth, and placed her Pokemon on the sidewalk.
"Oshawott, that was not good. That cake didn't belong to you." Oshawott snickered, but stopped when she saw how upset Velvet looked. "And now, look, you've stained my dress, and I had to pay for that whole cake. Please don't do things like that, okay? You can't take things that belong to other people, and you need to ask permission before just eating anything you can reach."
Oshawott still didn't really look like she terribly minded her trainer's scolding. She yawned, looking ready to find a comfy spot to nap.
With another heavy sigh, Velvet returned her chocolatey Pokemon to her Ball, placing it back in its proper place. "I need to pay better attention when my Pokemon are out, that's all." |

Satisfied in the hunger department but annoyed in the chocolate-stained dress department, Velvet figured she'd go get a new outfit before heading out of town to travel forth. A little boutique with a few racks out front, declaring a "SALE!" with bright yellow signs, was her next stop. She entered, self-consciously covering the stains on the side of her dress with her bag, and chatted with the young man stocking the indoor racks. He directed her to the sizing area she needed, and she browsed for quite a while, nearly forty-five minutes by the time she'd made her selections.
Luckily, the workers allowed her to use their fitting room to change into her new clothes once she was done paying for them, and she folded her stained dress neatly up before stowing it in her bag, figuring she'd wash it later. The new clothes were still nice, a poofy pale cerulean dress with lace trim and puffy sleeves, but she was still disappointed about the dress that was likely ruined. She'd tried to dress nicely for her first day as a trainer, failing to think about the circumstance that the Pokemon would be as new to having a trainer as she would be to having a Pokemon.

| Velvet walked along the sidewalks, not sure where exactly she wanted to start her journey. Though she'd come to Nuvema to see the local Professor about her starter Pokemon, she figured she could decide what region she actually wanted to travel later. A motorcycle buzzed past as she waited to cross toward the Visitor's Center near the docks, hoping to get ideas about where to go. Safely across the street, Velvet stepped into the cool room and looked for her quarry: the rack of travel brochures.
Velvet browsed through the stack of colorful papers she'd snagged from the stand, setting aside first one then another for being, well, not quite what she was looking for. Though Kanto was fairly different from what she was used to, it struck her as a fairly quiet place, and she wasn't sure that's what she wanted. She'd lived in the suburbs of the city her whole life and she wanted something else, something more tropical. Finally, she settled on two choices: either Hoenn or Alola.
Heading to Alola would be a very long trip, especially by boat, but Hoenn would be only about five or six hours faster.. She looked up at the schedule for the ships and discovered that, either way, she would have to wait at least until tomorrow morning to head out. It seemed that the time estimation for both of them was extremely long, but with the money she'd saved up hoping to just get a local apartment back near home, she could afford to board one of the fancier luxury ships..
She decided to take the night to think about it, and headed out, toting both the Hoenn and the Alola brochures in her bag to look at later this evening when she had time. Her admittedly getting tired feet carried her to a local hotel, where she asked for a room for the night, just for her, a single Queen bedroom.
Feeling refreshed and relaxed after a long hot shower, a towel-wrapped Velvet settled onto her bed for the night and leafed through the brochures, looking closely at the pros and cons of each. Time wasn't part of her concerns right now, she just wanted to pick one and take her leisurely boat ride and get moving. After reading each leaflet at least three times each and finding that they were nearly at a tie, Velvet decided to do some research with her Pokedex instead.
She took a look at some of the wild Pokemon she might encounter in each region, taking special care to note when one might be too scary to catch, or when one was so supremely rare that there was no way she'd ever actually see one in her lifetime without all the luck in the world behind her. Velvet fell asleep with her Pokedex in her hands, luckily having had the foresight of asking for a wakeup call at check-in, and rested heavily for the rest of the night. |

(No pretty post styling on mobile :<)
Hotel wake up calls weren't the most fun to wake up to, but Velvet was up and alert pretty quick regardless. She never had fully decided which region she'd head to, but she figured she could just hit up the next ship leaving port going to one of her possibilities. It was lucky she decided to start out here so she had that choice, she thought as she dressed. Normally she'd brush her hair before tying it up for the day but she thought it might be better this time to just throw it into her signature messy look and get going, just in case there was any trouble.
Just outside of the hotel, once she was all sorted out and double checked to make sure she had all of her belongings, Velvet figured now was an alright time to get to know her little Oshawott a bit better. She had briefly released the otter the previous night to bathe her in the hotel tub, scrubbing out all of the chocolate from her fur until she was sparkling clean again,but she'd been too absorbed in her research to really bond with her.
"Hi again, Oshawott. Are you ready to head out with me?" Velvet picked up the Pokemon and held her at arm's length. Oshawott smiled and made pleased sounds. "Do you promise not to eat or take anything that isn't yours today?"
Oshawott made a kind of shrugging motion, tilting her head. "Oshwa?"
"Eh.. good enough." Pulling the Pokemon into an embrace against her chest, Velvet entered the dock facility to decide their fate.
