The Riolu took a moment to catch his breath, crimson eyes still burning with determination as he wearily trembled a little as he looked down at his defeated opponent. As he saw this, he raised the fist he used to strike down Remi's pokemon into the air, paw shaking as he just left it there and peered back to Yuu. Yuu merely crossed his arms, chuckling at the celebratory stance one of his partners was taking. He saw the gleam in Jojo's eyes, yet there was a paradoxical bit of doubt nestled there as well, as if asking him if it was over. Yuu rolled out a thumbs up and a smirk to Jojo, [color=92278f]"Celebrate all you want Jojo, we won and it's all thanks to you and Aster."[/color] Vivi buzzed up, whirring in agreement as it did a little twirl in the air, performing a merry little jig. [color=firebrick]"Rio!"[/color] In an instant, what little remained of Jojo's doubt vanished in an instant as his eyes twinkled in delight as he began jumping up and down, shooting his arms up and down in succession for a couple of seconds. Once that was done he then turned around and ran towards Yuu, but not before stumbling forward and losing a bit of his footing. In one deft motion, Yuu knelt down to catch the tumbling Riolu who ended up falling and resting upon one of his arms, [color=92278f]"Hey, hey, no need to rush, you're still a little injured after that whole ordeal."[/color] And whose fault was it? Despite the gentle look he was giving Jojo, Yuu had his own reservations about doing his best as he looked over his partner before giving him a small ruffled on the head. Obviously Jojo could see what Yuu was feeling, prompting the pokemon to raise a paw to Yuu's forehead and give him a pat all while giving the young man the widest smile he could. Yuu let out a soft sigh, picking up the Riolu and letting him rest on his shoulder, [color=92278f]"If you start losing balance just hold onto my hair. Don't worry, I'll be fine."[/color] Jojo chirped out a response, bobbing his head as he sat beside his partner. Grunting, Yuu glanced over at Jill with all the warmth of a winter eve, [color=92278f]"Your partner, Aster, did a good job during that battle. As for you... you've got [i]waaaaaay[/i] more to learn about being a trainer considering your performance during this all, though I am loathe to admit that the water bucket usage was pretty OK."[/color] Yuu didn't even bother to provide context for what he meant as he walked toward the defeated duo. Vivi on the other hand stayed behind to whir their own thank yous and made electronic sounds as if to reassure or smooth over what Yuu meant. At the very least she didn't let Vivi down, though he wasn't going to admit that as he stood before the two, somewhat listening in on their little conversation as he shoved his hands into his pockets and stared at them. [color=92278f]"Anything else, hmm,"[/color] Yuu quizzically murmured with all the vibrancy of a Slakoth, [color=92278f]"I was actually hoping to invite you two to join me; both of you both seem to be quite the competent duo and actually even managed to challenge me; don't recall the last time that happened if that makes you two feel any better... regardless, I wouldn't mind having you two along, however..."[/color] Yuu paused for a brief moment, closing his eyes and sighing wistfully as he brushed his index finger against his chin, [color=92278f]"It seems we both have different plans for where we want to go; my first destination was actually a manor in the Winding Woods as I have some business there, though I do need to make preparations for said journey."[/color] Yuu was extremely nonchalant about stating that he was heading to a destination that the duo probably were aware of... or not. [color=92278f]"I was planning on surveying the rest of the city, scouting out some of the routes and their Pokemon, planning to stop by the Contest Hall here for some business, make a couple of purchases at the PokeMart, and maybe even check out the gym here and try to get a feel for it,"[/color] Yuu brought out his hand, thumbing along everything on his list as he felt a slight tug of his hair and deftly brought up a hand to catch his off-balanced partner. [color=92278f]"And also getting Jojo healed up... I wonder if Professor Camphor has a healing station in her lab,"[/color] Yuu absentmindedly murmured this out loud to himself before clearing his throat. [color=92278f]So, uh anyways, you two interested? That also applies to you as well,"[/color] Yuu whipped his head around and pointed directly at Jill, [color=92278f]"Yeah, I'm also extending the same courtesy to you as well since you were my partner in the fight. Take it or leave it."[/color][/cell][cell][hider=Trainer Information || Yuu Nozomu][u]Pokémon [/u] Jojo the Riolu | Lvl 7 | [color=darkorange]Danger![/color] [u]Pokédollars [/u] 000.005.500P [u]Inventory [/u] x3 Potion x5 Pokéballs [u]Interactions [/u] GM | [@Rune_Alchemist] Jill | [@XxFellsingxX][/hider][/cell][/table]
