"The more the merrier!" Skip reiterated to Quinn. "I'm Skip! This is Clove!" He indicated his Bayleaf who flipped her leaf on top of her head proudly and called a greeting to the Quilava. "That's Cecil and this is Klover.... who we also just met." He pointed to the two other trainers more to remind himselves of their names. He let them introduce their own Pokemon thought. A wing hitting his head reminded him of something. "Oh and this is Flutter and Basil." He introduced his Woobat and Fomantic respectively.

(Sorry for the delay, had a really really busy day that ended later than i thought it would bc my tire EXPLODED on my way home lol. I'm all safe and stuff and nothing was hurt or anything and my dad came and helped me put on the spare and we have to go get a new tire tomorrow but it was interesting and I'm tired lol) (But uh Sparkly the second group is in the Pokemon Center in Lushsong just about to leave to go explore the forest/head for Cloudy Heights so if you want we can say Aurora won her gym battle there since I don't have a gym leader in Lushsong at the moment... or I can make one for you if you want it will just take longer. Also We can level up your Pokemon so they are stronger if you want! i don't want to take away from your experience of course so whatever you are comfortable with doing! But that's where they are and what they are doing) (Yep, that's fine!) |

Claudia nodded picking up Q "If you guys are ok with it is it ok if I join your group tomorrow at the gym I've been debating whether to challenge one with Cin and it would be nice to watch you guys battle one to see if it is something she would like." Claudia said as she watched the other trainers get ready to head into the pokemon center.

Klover looked at the new trainer and with a smirk said," well it would seem are little group just keeps getting bigger." Klover then asked," so when should we head out cause I hear there is certain pokemon in there that I would like to catch."

"I'm okay with that!" Peter nodded to Claudia. "If you cheer me on of course." She joked as they started to walk back towards the Pokemon Center. "It'll be my first gym battle and I'm just seeing if it's something I want to do." She still wasn't sure if going after Gym Badges was what she wanted to do but she was going to try it just to see.
"What Pokemon is that?" Skip asked Klover with interest. "The forest has all kinds of Pokemon from what I've heard." He was still bummed that he had missed the festival the night before since he had wanted to see a bunch of different kinds of Pokemon.

Akai walked along in silence, listening to them chat. He was fine with her coming as well. Even if she wasn't going to challenge the gyms it was still fun and informative to watch on happen. Akai entered as the doors opened and had to appreciate the air conditioning the inside brought. He followed them to the front table.
Cecil nodded "While you look for a pokemon I want to grab some berries and herbs. It shouldn't take too long considering how abundant they are in the forest." he returned Soleil to his pokeball and added "Oh, that was Soleil and this is Willow." he gestured to the small fox on his shoulder.

Klover smiled and said," I heard that there was a Leavanny and I have always wanted one to join my team." Klover then started to imagen how awesome having a Leavanny would be when he takes on the next gym.

Quinn offered a little wave and a smile to each person and pokemon who were introduced to her. "My team and I are going to train up and get ready for the gym." she shifted her weight to her other foot, "It wouldn't hurt to explore a little though!" Quinn's eyes lit up at the thought. There could be any number of things to find in a big forest like that. She was surprised at how welcoming they were. It was kind of a relief. "Well, you guys just let me know when you are ready."

"Aren't those rare?" Skip asked as he recalled Flutter and Basil back into their Pokeballs and grabbed his backpack. "Probably be easier to find a Swadloon honestly. But I beleive in you!" He just hoped that if Klover caught one he wouldn't use it in the next gym they were heading towards as flying type was super effect against both the grass and bug type that Leavanny was. But it also made it more interesting to see how Klover would overcome that if everything went his way.

I like how you mention that but every time I face a gym in a game I always have the type disadvantage but still manage to win. Also aside from Angel Klover's whole team is grass types.)
Klover gave a quick nod as he called back all his pokemon except for Angel and said," yes they are which is why I really want to get this one." Klover then stood up and said," now if we are all ready I think it is about time for us the head to the forest."

Claudia Gave over Cin as they approached the desk the little Cindiquil had gotten in a bit of fight with a Pidgy on their way to the town and though she wasn't severely injured Claudia preferred that she get checked out. She sat down at one of the tables as she waited

(Welp school has started so..... yeah. Only taking three classes this semester but they are all work heavy classes so I shall not be as active as I wish to be. But I will have tuesdays and Thursdays and fridays off and huge gaps between my classes on Mon and Wed so just spam my likes if I take more than a day to respond)
(lol see I almost always try to have a type advantage of some sort in gym battles either by Pokemon Type or Move Type lol. How about Klover finds a Swadloon and by him saving it from something or befriending it it evolves? That would give him an even closer bond to the Pokemon?)
Peter walked up to the counter and handed off Holiday's Pokeball to get her all healed up. "So what's your strategy for you gym battle?" She asked Blaze as they waited for Nurse Joy to heal their Pokemon. "It's a rock type gym according to Akai so uh Treeko should be strong in the battle right?" She asked, hoping her Pokemon knowledge was getting better.
"Well I'm ready to go," Skip announced to everyone as he shouldered his backpack and stood from the table. He took his tray over to the trash can and stowed it on top after dumping the contents and turned back to the others. "Let's go see if there's what we are all looking for in the Forest yeah?" Clove called in affirmation, showing his own excitement to go explore the Lushsong forest.

So I'm only two days into my senior year and I have my work cut out for me, like tons of reading and writing this semester! All I can say is I don't know how I will survive this semester and I really hope you can put up with my activity)
Blaze stared at Peter, almost dumbfounded as he hardly gave any thought to what strategy he may use against the Gym. "Uhh... I, actually, don't know" Blaze said with a shrug of his shoulders. He took the pokeballs off his belt which contained both Shadow and Treecko and handed them over to Nurse Joy as well. "Yeah Treecko is a great choice, but I still don't know if he will listen to me."

(lol yeah I remember my senior year..... of high school right? Idk how old anyone is anymore lol I'm just an old fart who likes Pokemon and murder cats)
"It doesn't hurt to try right?" Peter offered with a smile. "The worst that happens is you lose the battle and have to try again." She glanced to where the others were waiting. "Maybe Claudia can offer some help on figuring out why Treeko won't listen to you. She seems to know a lot about Pokemon right?"

Too bad someone doesn’t have a croconaw then we could have a johto squad)
Quinn swung her backpack around to her front and checked to be sure she grabbed everything. She did such things obsessively, Quinn was very worried about losing her things. Her bag was neatly organized and everything was in place. She checked the second, smaller pocket where her team’s pokeballs were nestled inside. She had even remember her water bottle, which she was sure it would get lost at some point on her journey. Lastly she patted her pockets, checking for her pokephone. It was there in her back pocket. She sighed, relieved she had remembered everything. “Well, lets go then. Helios, you ready?” She glanced down at him and he gave her a little nod and a small sound of agreement.

Claudia got up a few minutes later to take Cin back from Nurse Joy. as she walked up she overheard the last of Peter and Blaze's conversation. "Whats wrong with Treeko?" she asked softly as she received her pokemon back. She looked over to the trainers a little worried that they were thinking she was some kind of weird pokemon guru.
(What do you want to be the reason he is not listening, do you want me to make something up, or not know why?)

Nope, college senior year.. I technically could graduate in the spring, but not going to happen in my opinion. Likely have to extend it to a year more.. Especially if I get the 5 month Disney college program next semester)
Ummm.. Idk.. Stubborn, he also thinks he doesn't need Blaze to be stronger nor wants much to do with trainers. We planned to have them lose the gym battle first and somehow make a connection with Treecko after so they can win)
Blaze gave off a small sigh, before nodding. "Treecko doesn't listen to anything I say," Blaze said, ashamed of his what was suppose to be trainer skills. "He's complete opposite of Shadow, and when me and Akai battled earlier, we lost because he refused to cooperate with the attacks."

(Oh lol you are ahead of me in school lol. Despite the fact I've been in college for like 5 years. I took a year off and changed my major like 4 times so I kinda have to start over again except for most of my GEs so I have 4 semesters left till I graduate but..... that's only at this 2 year college i'm going to and I want to transfer to a 4 year after so at least.... a year or so after that till I get my bachelors.... ugh lol)
(What's the Disney College Program?? and what are you studying? I'm doing a Business Administration Major now lol)
(Sparkly now might be the best time to have Aurora jump in with the second group! They are about to leave the Pokemon Center and have been talking loudly about going to the forest. We'll say she already got her Lushsong Badge right? So the level cap for the gym leader is level 24 so her Pokemon can be up to like level 25 now if you want! SO her Torchic could have evolved into a Combusken and know Sand Attack, Peck and Flame Charge and Quick Attack if you want. and Cherubi probably wasn't used much in the fight as it's a grass type so we can say it's up to like Level 22 so it's close to evolving (level 25) and knows Sunny Day if you want it to know another move. So just jump in with your character whenever you get on and we'll respond when we get on as trying to get us all on at the same time is gonna be a little difficult rn)

I'm a Communications major with a Creative Writing minor. I also started my degree late after changing from general studies degree. The Disney College Program is basically a long internship that let's you work in Walt Disney World (Orlando) or Disneyland (Anaheim). Its kind of hard to get into)

(Oh that's cool! I hope you get into the program!!)
(My first major was Criminology and Justice Studies and then I changed it to Environmental Studies and then Video Game development and now it's Business Administration..... which is a bunch of HUGE jumps in majors lol. I started the first 2 at a 4 year college then when my depression got really bad i switched to a 2 year college bc its cheaper and I kept failing classes and now i'm doing so much better so i'm going back after a year break lol)

Yeah sometimes, its a needed break, but I was told I could not take a gap year because it will absolutely destroy my financial aid. Oh well. I was suppose to go to a big university in the state, but I just couldn't pay for the $40,000 tuition that it costs to go there every year.. Now at local college I'm only down $7500 in loans instead of $25,000 that would have been my first year at the big university)
Thanks, I just applied yesterday for the third time)

(lol yeah I had to start paying my Financial Loans back during the year gap from the 4 year school but since I didn't make a lot of money with my job I was able to do income based payments which since i made so few money I don't actually have to pay anything and it said that usually after like 5 years or something they usually forgive the loan and i don't owe anything so here's to hope for that lol. Besides it was only like $7000 for the like 3 semesters I went there for)
(Thanks Sparkly! I'll update the front page! Just stick Aurora in whenever and I'll have Skip interact with her if you want!)

Skip glanced over as he was getting ready to leave with the others and spotted Aurora and her Pokemon. "Woah! Look at the Cherubi!!!!" He dashed away from the others and over to her. "Is this your Pokemon?" He asked in awe as he admired her Cherubi and her Combusken. "The colors of your Cherubi are so bright and healthy looking! And your Combusken looks like he has really strong legs!" He noticed how awkwardly the Combusken seemed to be holding his arms. "Did he just evolve?" He didn't seem to realize he was bombarding her with questions.
