Evie listened carefully to the professors' explanation. It seemed like the forest would, predicatbly, be filled with grass and bug pokemon. Short work for her poisonous Venipede, but it might not be much help in trying to expand her roster variety. Still, if she could catch something she'd never seen before, she'd be happy even if it was another bug. Still, glancing at Alix's torchic, Evie found herself a bit jealous. Of course pokemon had strengths and weaknesses, but Torchic's fire would be quite useful in the forest, for sure. She knew that water types would stuff it later, but it was hard to think ahead so much.

It was also nice how she was able to travel with her pokemon out of the ball like she did. This was one of Sengun's secrets that Evie wanted to know more about. But she'd find a quiet moment to ask about that, rather than right this second. At the moment, the question seemed to turn towards peoples' home towns, and she was surprised to hear the dark-skinned girl in the group announce her hometown proudly as Castelia. That made it difficult for Evie to respond. Felt like somebody was moving in on her turf or something. But it wasn't like she was happy to call Castelia home or anything. Even to this day she was happier running with the old gang outside Lumiose. So what should she say?

"Castelia, is it? Respect, girl, I guess you and I are kindred spirits. City's alright I guess. Not exactly on the cutting edge, but it's got that big city flair. I guess I should be happy to call it home. I prefer travelling to staying in one spot, though. It gets a little, like, stuffy in Unova, doesn't it?"

[i]Ah, cripes, that sounded like I was trying to start a fight or something. Damn. Too late to save it. Thanks, big mouth.[/i] She didn't mean to sound pretentious, but it was easy to put your foot in your mouth when you were trying to brag just a little.
