“Better he runs around here than anywhere else.” Camphor grumbled, though still wearing her usual tired expression, seemed to perk up a bit. “You sure I couldn’t convince you to be a full time assistant?” Frieda was behind Camphor making an ‘x’ shape with her wrists and shaking her head briefly. 

“But to answer your question…well, the easiest place to start is right here. Lots of pokemon consider Byjerlfal their home. Even have some ghost types that hang around at night if you know where to look.” She’d take a swig of the coffee. “But if you're looking for non-urban areas…Route one or two is a good starting place. Route one cuts directly through the nearby forest and straight through to Pines End. Lots of grass and bug types out there. Route two travels along the coast, eventually meeting up with routes four and five at the edge of the Eidda Plains.”

“Uhm, professor, what about that old manor?”

“No. If there’s one thing you guys listen to me on, don’t go into the Winding Wood or that manor. That place is not for novices - its dangerous out there. And if i find out you [i]did[/i] and trust me, I will, you’re going to have to deal with a very angry midget scientist and nobody, not even me, wants that.”

“Ah, actually, that reminds me! Its not really marked well on maps since its not a major route but there’s a cave on the beaches of route two. You might be able to find some good pokemon there.” Frieda interjected.

The Snivy flinched, giving a small cry of surprise as it was apparently seen. Its tail was quickly pulled behind the tree. A few long silent seconds passed before it poked its head back around, glancing at Richard with a small bit of apparent apprehension before quietly walking out from behind the tree. Richard had no way of knowing this, but the professor had been taking care of each pokemon here herself for quite some time. This Snivy was here, specifically, because it had been the runt of the litter so to speak - having been passed up for a starter time and time again for its seeming shyness.

The Snivy took a few apprehensive steps towards the trainer, hesitantly reaching out and taking the berry it had apparently been munching on earlier and…then offering it instead to Richard, seemingly wanting to share it. 

Well, it had been relatively easy all things considered, and it would likely never be this easy again but for now it seemed at least, he had earned this Snivy's trust. Assuming he'd put it into the pokeball shortly afterwards....
