Pokédex 002 [action, open]

[crimson_pinnacle]

It is that time again! Red is out exploring the Deep Canyon this time, and has a friend today in Blue, his childhood buddy. Hearing about his fun on the Tropical Island, she has went with him to make sure he doesn't get himself killed and train up her team with some Intensive Training while Red is searching for Pokemon to bond with.

Likely he'll be coming with her to the locale all week to help raise up her party and catch up.

For today, though. He is content to search along the rocks with Abby while Zarya stays back a bit to watch Blue while she is tutoring Nike with 'something you'll definitely like' according to her.

"What do you think, Abby?" The Charmander doesn't attempt answering, instead scanning the rocks for friends and trouble.

"Yeah...Me too." The Island had definitely shaken both of them up, but that's all the more reason to try harder and get stronger.

Down the Rabbit Hole??

Participating Characters: Melaka Fray, Jason Grace, and Rise Kujikawa
Plot Description: Melaka proposed a trip out to the Scorched Forest to both look for those soils that the Council wanted to look for and also as part of a mission she had to try to find the source of the forest's continued burned state.

{Video}
[A woman sits poised and holding the Warp Band carefully so that the video function is working properly. She would perhaps be familiar to those that frequent the University or the "richer" circles of Union. If not, well, she's about to introduce herself.]

Hello. It has certainly been awhile since I used the Warp Band to broadcast. I was told this would likely be the best way to get the ball rolling on a new job I've picked up at the University.

It would seem that in addition to my research, that they are wishing me to take up a few classes and also meet with students who need help with their assignments. A kind of tutor I suppose...

[Despite her words, she does seem legitimately excited for this task. Maybe she actually enjoys working with younger people.]

If you are interested, my focus is in history, legends, relics, and research, but I am quite knowledgeable in other fields as well. I will be in the cafe just down the way from the University should you like to meet me for tutoring or get to know one of your future part-time instructors.

Just ask for Setsuna, please. I'll be here for a few hours and working on updating some of my notes in the meantime.

[She smiles as she holds up a pen as if to demonstrate that, yes, she is serious about this task. Apparently someone felt like working in a new environment instead of at their apartment for a change.]

{Action}

[At a small cafe near the University sits a woman pouring over several books and stacks of notes. She is reading and also adding to the notes at the same time. Despite her video broadcast, what you didn't see was a tiny Espurr sitting curled in the seat next to her. It is apparently asleep...for the moment and purring quietly.

Feel free to approach her since, despite all the work around her, she will be quite friendly if you talk to her. She probably needs to remember to stop and drink the tea that is quickly getting cold beside her anyway.]

Action / Video

[footprints_on_your_face]

[Action; streets of Union]

[Anyone out and about in the streets of Union today will likely catch sight of a rather energetic young trainer and her Pokemon jogging all throughout the city.  It's a daily ritual for Chie and her Tyrogue, both of them needing a healthy amount of physical activity to keep their muscles firm and toned.  The two of them push as hard as they can, each one momentarily overcoming the other as they race.  For anyone who bothers to watch this in action, there's also a Phanpy doing its best to keep up, as well as a fat Lillipup strolling along casually at a much greater distance, periodically yawning and getting lapped by its trainer and companions.

Eventually, all of them slow to a stop, resting on a bench somewhere in the Entertainment District.  The Phanpy flops over exhausted, the Tyrogue sits down and immediately begins doing cool down stretches and massaging its legs, and the Lillipup curls up at Chie's feet to take a nap.  Chie herself just drapes her arms across the back of the bench, leaning her head back as she catches her breath.]

Whew... good job, everybody!

[Video]

[Later on, Chie decides to introduce herself over the Warp Band.  She is pretty new to this trainer stuff, after all.  So everyone is treated to the sight of a big smile and a V for victory as her Pokemon look on from the background.]

Hi, everyone!  My name's Chie Satonaka.

[She gestures to the Tyrogue, the Lillipup, and the Phanpy in turn.]

And these are my Pokemon!  Lee, Biao, and Panna.  I've been buddies with Lee and Biao for a while now, but Panna's new to the team.

[This announcement is met with a happy trumpeting noise from the Phanpy's trunk.]

So anyway, I'm kinda just starting out with this whole Pokemon training thing, so if anybody's got any tips or secret training techniques or anything, just let me know!  Chie, out!
