Also disembarking from that same ship, was another trainer. Unlike the other one, though, this one let his partner be perched on his shoulder. It was a Gligar, one that the trainer nicknamed Glider. As his feet touched the soil of the Kosei region for the first time, Trey looked around himself with a wide grin and a look of wonder in his eyes, "Here we are, Glider. It's a whole new world." he said to the Glgar perched on his shoulder, who responded in the way only a Pokemon could, by saying its own name, though it did so happily, with an equally exited smile on its face. This place was nothing like home. The Johto Region as a whole was always known for being one of the more old-fashioned regions. It's only real major city was Goldenrod City, while most of the other towns were more rural than anything else, dotted with shrines and practically divided into two halves by Mt. Mortar. But this place, this place was something else. The buildings had a rustic architecture to them that reminded him of home, but then there were those big turbines. There definitely wasn't anything like that back at home. Of course, this just proved that even right from this outset, this journey was gonna be one to remember, and Trey could hardly wait to get started on it. But first, he had to find the laboratory of Professor Tsuga. He was told that Tsuga could help him get started with his journey across Kosei, and besides, getting to meet any of the world-famous Pokemon Professors was an opportunity that no trainer worth their salt would ever pass up. Then he spotted someone, a man who looked vaguely familiar handing off a package so someone else who was disembarking. Why did the man look so familiar? Then the recognition hit him like a ton of bricks. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small photo depicting the very man who had long since left, "Wait! Ah man... looks like I just missed him." lamented Trey, having started to run after the Professor but gave up when it was clear he would catch up to him. "Oh well, I'm sure he'll be at his lab." Trey muttered to himself, only just now remembering that he was now standing next to someone, "Oh! Sorry if I startled you. I was supposed to meet that Professor when I got here but it looks like I just missed him. Name's Trey, and this is Glider, my partner."
