Basil stood there awkwardly at the little girl that bowed towards him and with all of her ghosts surrounding her though he could feel that one wrong move he would soon be become a member of her team. [color=8882be]"Don't worry, you got it right. Uh, please stop bowing. It would've been fine even if you didn't remember."[/color] His eyes darted to Lesley and Eryn in some desperate plea to ask for their help and thankfully the other trainer introduced herself. Basil almost sighed of relief to have that tension broken. [color=8882be]"It's nice to meet you too. I'm Basil. Wait, uh, you already heard her say that."[/color] He smiled awkwardly at her because yeah, he really wasn't that much better than the little girl across from him. It was a wonder how this anxious white-haired boy with one too many piercings was able to be the trainer of such a haughty, arrogant bird. Speaking of that bird, it looked down with all of its .2 meters of height at the Bagon with crossed arms. He was ready to throw down and test the rigidi of Atha's head with a few karate chops. Basil was about to step in himself, but Eryn beat him to the punch. Still, that little dragon had some fight in it and with a grin Eryn asked him a question that was bound to pop up whenever two trainers meet. [color=8882be]"I was wondering how I compare to the other trainers chosen. Sure, I'm game,"[/color] said Basil with a grin though this time it was a tad more confident. Oddly enough, he was starting to feel less nervous about battling than he did before and was starting to feel something a bit bubblier. Was it excitement? Well, the question had to wait because his Pokedex started to ring. Basil grabbed it from his belt and looked at the caller ID. His brow pushed up in surprise and he looked at Eryn and said,[color=8882be]"Sorry, I have to take this."[/color] He held it up to see the screen since this seemed like a facetimed call.[color=8882be]"Professor Kalmia?"[/color] [color=82c6cf]‘Heeey, Basil! How’s your Pokémon journey coming along?’[/color] [color=8882be]"Uh, well my journey has been eventful to say the least. I hope you are doing well."[/color] [color=82c6cf]‘Just in case you were wondering, I got your Pokémon over here! Whenever you put a Pokémon in the PC, I can take them out here! You don’t mind if I take them on a couple walks, right?’[/color] [color=8882be]"Oh, um, not at all. Some exercise would do them some good. I don't want them cooped up in their Pokeballs or in the lab all day."[/color] At that moment he got a picture of his Pokemon back in the lab on their walk. Aria the pink puffball was center stage as she should while Sabbah hid in the shadows and Pamina gave the peace sign. Titus was just flopping around to no ones' surprise. [color=82c6cf]‘Right, I actually had a different thing I wanted to talk to you about,’[/color] Kalmia said, suddenly looking a bit more serious. [color=8882be]"Oh, uh, sure. What is it?"[/color] Professor Kalmia then proceeded to explain the quest that she sent Amelia on to bypass the six Pokemon capacity limit and his heart sank with the slow realization of why she called him specifically. Basil heaved a sigh because he knew what his answer was going to be, and he loathed it with all of his might. [color=8882be]"Yeah, no, I get it. Nobles can definitely be a bit much, especially the ones higher on the food chain. I'll help, but I promised someone that I would stop by Stillwood to investigate something regarding the incident in Rainrock and I'd rather not make her wait."[/color] While he did want to explain his own situation, he was afraid of letting off more than he intended to anyone in earshot. The walls have ears and what not. [color=8882be]"Actually, she's here with me too along with Eryn and the gym leader of Lakewatch."[/color] He held his screen out to the three of them to show them the professor before turning it back to him. [color=8882be]"Eryn and I were about to have a battle, but I will talk to Amelia. I'll let you know what happens. Have a nice day."[/color] After exchanging goodbyes, he hung up the phone and looked at Amelia, [color=8882be]"Hey Amelia, you heard all that, right? Are you free to talk after Eryn and I battle?"[/color] He asked, but then he looked like he just remembered something. He turned to the gym leader in scarlet armor. [color=8882be]"Oh, um, Ms. Lesley I'd hate to take up more of your time, but could you please ref our match? I did come here to speak to you as well."[/color]
