| The woman turned around the moment she noticed their approach and admitted that they were very lucky, considering they were just about to close up for the day. Peering beyond the woman, Sage could see why; most of the pens were completely empty. There were only two pens now occupied, one of which held one Pokémon, and the other holding three. So, there were only four left to choose from? Sage felt a little disheartened; the odds were even worse than she had originally realized from a distance. Sage listened to the woman as she spoke, informing them all about the event they had up for display here and also the fact that Kanto generally had these sort of events popping up all throughout the region. The thought of having these opportunities to get free Pokémon and items brought a soft smile to Sage’s face while she quietly listened. She could see, from one glance toward her sister, that Osheen’s mind had completely wandered and her full attention was on the Pokémon left in the pens. However, regardless, as soon as the woman finished her explanation, Osheen did thank her and the woman headed off to give them some time while her sister pulled her, making a bee-line to the Pokémon. The only fire Pokémon that was left was Litten, and it was the one who had been isolated from the other group. Looking toward the pen with three remaining Pokémon, Sage could see that it was a Shinx, an Espurr, and a… Alolan form Persian? Sage blinked widely at the bizarre looking Persian. She had never actually seen one before. W-Well, that was an immediate no. And so was the Litten — it was a fire type. Shinx was… electric. Urgh, and that could be problematic as well. The Espurr, well, Sage believed that it was a Psychic type, but she wasn’t sure. { outfit } || @adira ( ooc: The gif is purrfect, lol. XD ) |

notes: I'M DYING SAGE, OSHEEN COULD YOU TWO BE ANYMORE INSULTING. xD P.s I picked a more befitting gif. The one with black and red was cute and kind of spiky looking, but it was a fire-type so it was a no. Next was a blue, black and yellow one which was also cute, but a little dorky looking with its big ears. And then there was a really, really pretty zoned out looking one that was very fluffy and...finally. Osheen's heart sank when she saw the balloon faced monstrosity before her. It was so hideous and stupid looking...no wonder no one had taken it. She felt awful for feeling that way, but it was the truth...and it made her sad. She looked to her sister and her face said it all...it was riddled with guilt and she was certainly looking to adopt the big headed one. "Which do you like?" she decided to ask tentatively.

| One look in Osheen’s direction, and Sage immediately knew what her sister was thinking. “No,” She started. “No, you’re not getting the Persian.” She immediately told her, and then pulled her sister aside to whisper at her in hopes of the Pokémon and workers not hearing their private discussion. “I’m not going to be forced to look at that really ugly Pokémon for the rest of our journey. It’s going to be a long journey, and you want to get something like that on our first day.” She scolded her heatedly. “I know you feel bad, but I can’t do it. I don’t want to ruin our journey together because we took sympathy on an ugly Pokémon.”{ outfit } || @adira ( ooc: This is AMAZING. ) |

notes: Since I already picked her Pokémon I went ahead and introduced an NPC to grab it. xD I forgot Osheen can be like this. LOL. Osheen looked bashful when she was so easily found out, but then grew more serious as her sister took her aside. It was through Sage's reveal that a sudden burst of anger filtered through her petite form. "That's not fair," she told her with a frown. "I happen to like Persian and if I want to get it then I should be able to. I'm not going to tell you what to get or not get on our journey," she whispered back quietly and felt angry. "I can keep it in it's Pokéball if I have to, but I don't want to stress over finding pretty Pokémon." She argued more and certainly had her defenses up. But unknown to them was the fact that another trainer was currently rushing over. "Wowzers! An Alolan form! Wicked cool!" The kid shouted and punched the air which successfully brought both of their gaze towards him. "You're in luck because we're giving him away," the woman who had spoken to them offered and the kid instantly shouted with joy and rushed over to pick the cat up and haul it away. "Wait! You forgot your free item," she called after him but the kid was gone like the wind. Osheen sighed slowly...and she was glad she was wrong that apparently looks didn't mean everything to everyone especially when kids were involved. But still it did show that they would have a problem in the future. "...Why don't we talk about this after...before they're all gone." She offered Sage quietly.

| Osheen immediately grew angry and defensive, Sage could see it in her expression and she felt her own anger burst to life when her sister just outright lied to her face. “Yeah, well, you’re lying to me right now.” Sage seethed under her breath as she called Osheen out, interrupting her half-way through. “I can’t believe you’re going to sit here and lie to my face.”Her words were cut off, however, when a boy who looked no older than ten years old suddenly rushed into the event area. “Wowzers! An Alolan form! Wicked cool!” He shouted and caught everyone’s attention, including the two workers. Sage couldn’t appreciate the kid, or the “convenience” of him showing up to take the Pokémon — not when Osheen had pissed her off by lying right at her without batting an eyelash. Of course, as soon as the kid rushed off, Osheen suggested that they go ahead and get their Pokémon since they literally had no choices left, and that they should save the fighting for “later”. “Well then, why don’t you go ahead and get the Litten?” She snarkily returned and crossed her arms over her chest. “Since I’m not allowed to control you or what Pokémon you choose. Go ahead, do whatever you want, I don’t care.”{ outfit } || @adira ( ooc: All these two do is FIGHT. ) |

notes: Lol, they're sisters it's allowed. What a time to get an item!!! xP Sage didn't hesitate to call her out on the fact that she was lying. But she wasn't! Or at least she had convinced herself she wasn't and besides that wasn't the point. The point was the fact that if she wanted an ugly Pokémon then it was in her right to have it! But as much as the fiery temper came it sizzled out and she just looked quiet and upset. Her sister only made it worse when she told her to go get the Litten and the young trainer just frowned as her heart sank further into upset. "I'm not getting anything," she snapped back at her and reached to her PokéaBelt to grab Dalia's ball and put her away. A red light encased her surprised starter and just like that she clipped it back onto her belt and started to walk away back to the bench. She knew Sage hated when she lied to her, but that didn't give her the right to be snarky and mean to her!

| Like a firecracker, Sage had been lit. She hated when Osheen lied to her, because she knew her twin like the back of her own hand and on top of that her sister was a terrible liar. If she was going to lie to her face, then she should at least ensure that it’s believable! Sage remained stonily quiet and standoffish, her gaze pivoted off to the side as Osheen snapped that she wouldn’t get any of the Pokémon before she sent her Bulbasaur back into its pokéball and then walked off. Sage had to take in a deep breath to try and calm the anger that she felt about the whole situation, and the fact that Osheen was walking off now. Her steeled gaze kept itself away from the two women, not wanting to acknowledge the fact that they had been at this little event, looking at Pokémon, when they had gotten into a fight. Although, she wasn’t going to go back in the direction Osheen had went. She didn’t feel comfortable following her when she had been the one to walk away. Of course, there was no way she was in the mood to get a Pokémon anymore, but neither was she in the mood to apologize to the ladies and tell them that they could go ahead and pack everything up. Instead, she avoided all of that responsibility and awkwardness, and took off down the road in an opposite direction, far away from the workers and it just so happened to be in a different direction from where Osheen had gone. Whatever; it was a small town anyway. It didn’t matter, they’d be able to find each other again when they cooled off. And if they didn’t bump into each other then she could always go back to the bench and wait for Osheen to show up. It kind of sucked not having a cellphone with them. But, it was what it was. { outfit } || @adira ( ooc: Uh oh. It's fine if they don't get them here, we can just figure out how to implement them at a later time. XD LOL. ) |

Elfana Aroway Kanto was going to be worse than Johto was if Pallet Town was anything to go off of. Elfana did her best to ignore the uncomfortable way her heels dug into the dirt paths as they walked through the town. She had finished Liandry's collar during the train ride. The Quilava had her Heart Scale proudly on display and no longer had to fear damaging it. The scale itself was sealed in a protective case and the collar was basic compared to her usual work. She couldn't afford to be choosy given the limited amount of tools she had to work with. Liandry's collar would be improved when they returned to the lab. At least the Quilava was happy. Elfana wished she could say the same. By the time they reached the edge of the town, she was barefoot. She was going to need to invest in a better pair of shoes before long. Maybe a pair of boots. Something functional that still appealed to her. She wasn't going to adjust her preferred aesthetic if she didn't have to. "Shoes, proper coat...maybe some pants." She muttered to herself, expanding upon the mental list she had been working on. When they stopped in a bigger city she would need to look for a clothing store. For now she would deal with no shoes until they found a proper road.Kanto Viridian City Pewter City Cerluean City Celedon City Saffron City Lavendar Town Fuschia City Cinnibar Island Vermillion City Rota Partners: Out of their Pokeballs: Walter, Hoji, Liandry, Pantalaimon Wearing: Trainer Encounter: 85/25 Wild Encounter: 8/?

Elfana Aroway Elfana was looking forward to the train ride to Vaniville. She could sleep for some of it then work on mapping out their path through Kalos. They had made decent time through the first few regions and Elfana had managed to make a...maybe friend? She wasn't sure what to make of Apollo. He seemed nice enough but he had significantly more energy than she did. She wasn't sure how she was going to be able to keep up with him whenever they met up in Unova. There was an incredibly small part of her that was actually looking forward to their night out. She had never been interested in Nimbasa's nightlife but perhaps exploring it with a friend might make it tolerable. She continued to play with this thought even after she had boarded the train. Elfana rested her head against Walter's shoulder and closed her eyes, letting her daydreams run wild. Even if she didn't nap like she planned at least she would get some rest. That was good enough.Kalos Aquacorde Town Santalune City Lumiose City Camphrier Town Cyllage City Ambrette Town Geosenge Town Shalour City Coumarine City Laverre City Dendemille Town Anistar City Couriway Town Snowbelle City Partners: Out of their Pokeballs: Walter, Hoji, Kiro, Alastor Wearing: outfit, shoes Trainer Encounter: 110/25 Wild Encounter: 19/?

Roma slowly made her way down the lane leading to her house. It was a small house, but homely. Countless planters dotted the little front yard boasting flowers in an array of colors from roses to even a small lilac tree. The house seemed to reflect the colorful front yard with sky blue painted sides and a sunny orange door with white trim. It stood out in the neighborhood but Roma didn't mind. She had made her own little paradise here, but it was time to say goodbye.
She wandered around her yard, touching her flowers and wishing them well. She knew her old vaporeon would take good care of them while she was gone, but she thought it important to take your time and enjoy the goodbyes in life. Eventually, she made her way up to the door of the house and headed in for the last time in what might be quite awhile. There she gathered her things into a large rolling bag before returning to where she had left her new pokemon friend with Sunshine.
However, as she stepped out the door she was surprised to find a pokemon she didn't recognize with them. It was a little white and purple shinx with bright pink eyes. The little dear was covered in dirt and looked an awful mess, so after a moment of coaxing she brought the pokemon back inside and gave it some well-needed TLC. Once washed and combed, the little shinx purred with delight and wound about Roma's ankles in what she assumed was a thank you. "You are welcome to come with me sweety, if you have nowhere else to call home that is." Part of her hoped that was the case. Not simply because she liked the little pokemon, but also because no proper trainer would have let the shinx get in such a sorry state. Even if it had a trainer it was probably better off without them.

Roma shuffled back out of the house with the little Shinx close at her heels. "Alright lovelies it's time to go." She smiled down at her new pokemon before grabbing the handle of her rolling bag in one hand and her walking stick in the other. She looked back at the old house for a long moment with sad eyes. So much had happened in that house, both good and bad. However now it seemed almost too big for her. It echoed in a way that made her feel lonely despite still having her old pokemon living with her. It was why she had decided to set out on a journey once again. With age comes the need to find a purpose, and she knew she wouldn't find it here.

With a heavy heart, Roma made her way back out onto the lane and led the little group away from her old home. She knew her old friend, Mary, would take good care of her old pokemon, and they would all take good care of the house itself. Still, she fretted for the first few blocks before finally coming to terms with it. They would be fine without her.
She relaxed the further they walked down the lane, listening to the little pitter-patter of her Charmander and Shinx's footsteps. "I do believe I owe you two names." She glanced down at the two dears and smiled sweetly as she spoke. "You remind me of a little ghost, so how about Spectra?" She looked to the Charmander as it gave an eager nod in reply before turning her attention to the shinx. "And you are the sweetest little miss, how about Missy?" The Shinx seemed to think for a moment before giving a happy nod. It was decided then, Spectra and Missy approved of their new names. With that out of the way the group headed off towards the nearby train station, Roma chatting to her pokemon all the while as they walked. --------------------------------------------------------------- Wild Encounter: 4/?

From Oak's lab, Finch decided to head straight toward Route 1. Luckily, Pallet Town wasn't all that large and Finch didn't know how to move slowly, so in no time at all he was taking his first steps into the route between Pallet and Viridian. He figured it'd be a short walk, but he was also quite impatient to meet his brand new partner Pokemon. "Come on out!" His call rang out as the ball flew through the air, releasing a little lizard Pokemon in a burst of light. A short burst of a screechy roar came from the creature's mouth as Finch took in its looks; it was a shining golden hue with bright red eyes and a gorgeous red flame. Finch thought that seemed odd, since the Charmander he'd seen photos of had always been orange, but he shrugged it off. It was just a really pretty one, he deserved that, didn't he? It was golden and beautiful and an excellent match for his own lovely looks. "Hi there, Charmander! ...Hmmm. I think I'll call you Radiance, actually. That seems to fit right." Finch was mostly talking to himself as he crouched down to examine his brand new buddy, but once he did, the Charmander turned, noticed him, and hid behind its own tail in fright. "Huh?" Finch was puzzled; this was supposed to be a starter Pokemon? He figured they'd have been trained to not be scared of their own trainer, at least. It seemed he'd have some work to do before he could really get going on his goals..

Finch sighed deeply, hating to be slowed down but absolutely wanting his first partner Pokemon to trust him and not be scared of him. He very briefly considered going back and asking for a different Charmander, but that would be awful for quite a few different reasons, so it was a non option.
Okay, so this would need another kind of approach. Finch sat down completely, sticking his legs out and resting his palms on the ground. "Here, I'm not a threat, I'm not scary, see?"
The yellow lizard peeked out from her cowering position behind her tail, but didn't look totally convinced. "Look, I'm not gonna hurt you, alright?" Finch put effort into keeping his voice slow and calm, as best he could. It was difficult, but it seemed to help as the Charmander relaxed a little more and let her tail go more to the side than between them.
"Alright, good. See? I don't have any-" As Finch lifted his palms toward her to show that he didn't have any weapons, claws, anything like that, the tail went right back up to protect Radiance from the perceived threat.
Great..

Finch could feel the patience leaving his body and evaporating in the air. He rolled his eyes skyward, taking in a deep, calming breath, then let it out slow through his mouth. This was going to take far longer than he could ever have thought.
"Fine, alright. We can just hang out here a while, okay? I won't hurt you, try not to wander off though?" Finch looked at Radiance, who peeked out again but showed no more signs of relaxing. If he had to sit here all afternoon, Finch would lose his shit, but for a little while he supposed a break couldn't hurt. It sucked to rest before barely getting going, but. You know. Sometimes things didn't work out the way you need right away.
He quickly got bored and decided to check on that Pokedex that Oak had given him, see what kind of tasks would be required. Naturally, as beggars couldn't be choosers, he'd been given the oldest model that was still available on the market. That was fair, really, since he hadn't paid for it himself, but he'd absolutely be upgrading it as soon as possible. It didn't even have a touch screen and there were quite a few menus to go through before you could get to any of the actual information.
Finally, he dug through the old device and found his list of tasks. They were all greyed out except the one at the very top, so he focused on that: Capture one wild Pokemon and evolve it to its next stage. That shouldn't be too hard, right? He supposed, as he side-eyed his new Pokemon, that if need be he might be able to just throw a Poke Ball at a wild without fighting it first, if someone wouldn't cooperate..
But even as he thought this, he realized that Radiance had moved a bit closer. She still looked extremely nervous, but it seemed like sitting still and not looking at her at all made her feel less threatened. Progress! He tried not to let his relief show, hoping that if he kept ignoring her for the time being, she'd decide to trust him after all.

Finally, finally, after what felt like an absolute eternity of forcing himself to keep calm and quiet and not look too directly at the Charmander, Finch felt a warmth from Radiance's tail as she came close enough to touch. The golden Charmander had overcome her fear with the curiosity of what her new trainer was staring at in his hands, the Pokedex. She reached out to sniff at it and at Finch, and evidently liked what she smelled as she decided to move a bit closer. Softly, as softly as Finch was capable of, he said, "Okay, see? I'm not a threat, not to you~" Radiance's bright red eyes looked up into Finch's bright blue ones and she seemed to smile. "Char?" "Yeah, Char, I guess. You wanna help me out?" Finch couldn't help but smile back at the Charmander, almost forgetting to keep his voice fairly soft. He figured she'd have to get used to him and his normal habits sooner or later, but at least for this moment, he just didn't want to scare her anymore. Radiance eagerly nodded, surprising even herself. "Charmander char," she said solemnly.
Finch braced his arms against the ground and got up slowly; Radiance shrank back a little, but once he was at his full height and didn't seem to get any taller, she relaxed again.
"Alright, then, you ready to get going?" Radiance nodded and, finally, the pair started to walk into the tall grass, heading toward Viridian City.

It was very, very early into his research journey to be setting foot back on Route 1, but Finch knew that he wouldn't be able to do anything without the trust of his Pokemon partners, and miss Radiance needed to build up some confidence and a bit of strength if they were going to make it anywhere. He was already beginning to feel like he was going to have to learn how to be more patient, which was probably a good thing, but he hoped he learned the lesson sooner than later.
As they made their way into the grass, Radiance holding her tail up so as not to catch any of it on fire, both trainer and Pokemon watched for wild Pokemon that might attack.
Eventually, a Pidgey fluttered down from the trees to the west, pecking about on the ground and ruffling up its feathers. Radiance looked up at Finch and nodded, then hopped forward with a tiny, squeaky war cry. Finch grinned; they'd have to work on that too, he thought.
Wild Pidgey lv 5 appeared! Radiance used Dragon Tail! Wild Pidgey was defeated!
Radiance gained 5 exp!

Radiance gave a little hop as she knocked out the Pidgey, who quickly shuffled its feathers back into place, yelled some bird-like swears at her, and took flight again. They watched it go, both trainer and Pokemon's mouths curled into pleased smiles. "Good going! Keep that up!" Jogging about, the pair played a bit of tag, Finch being quite glad he'd worn his knee socks for all of this, since he knew the grass could cut his legs up like razor blades if they weren't protected, Radiance fully safe from the same damage due to her thick hide. Radiance tripped once, landing flat on her belly, and Finch swung her back up to her feet, laughing. 1/5 Wild Pokemon 15/25 NPC 7/40 Wise Glasses 2/3 Travel

As Finch and Radiance caught their breath, sitting in the grass and panting, a familiar face appeared from the direction of Viridian City. Palma, still wearing her brown apron and covered in flour, looked a bit flustered, but seemed to feel instant relief when she spotted them. "Hey! Finch! Can y'all come here please?" Finch and Radiance looked at each other, then got up and headed toward Palma, who was wringing her hands, causing little uncooked dough crumbs to fall to the ground. "Okay, so, I'm sorry to have to ask you, but I wondered if.. maybe you could help me out a bit? The oven at work decided to kick the bucket this morning, and the case is running out of pre-made stuff.. Usually I wouldn't ask, but I'm a lil desperate. I don't wanna have to close early today. I know you're busy and all but...?" Finch smiled, taking one of Palma's hands with his own and patting the back of it with his other hand. "Palma, we will gladly come and help you out at your bakery, right Radiance?" Radiance looked up at Finch, back at the grassy route behind them, then up at Palma. She nodded with a little "Char!" The three of them headed back into Viridian City. {Post Info}2/5 Wild Pokemon 16/25 NPC 8/40 Wise Glasses 3/3 Travel
